Try being 6'5 and skinny, if I do find a pair of waders that are long enough they are typically big enough for a family of 4.

if I was a wader manufacturer I would be worried about being named in the lawsuit when a short man drowned in a rice field.

Mack's Prairie Wings has a house brand wader called the Big Ditch that fits short guys. I'm the same size as you, cbump. I wear a size 8.



If brilliant men are roses then I'm just a field of daisies.

6'-2" 341 pounds--- believe me you don't have wader troubles like I had. Fortunately I am 305 pounds and counting down. Maybe this year I won't feel like I am stuffed in a sausage casing.

I think I found out why;



Short people

Short people got no reason
Short people got no reason
Short people got no reason
To live

They got little hands
Little eyes
They walk around
Tellin great big lies
They got little noses
And tiny little teeth
They wear platform shoes
On their nasty little feet

Well, I dont want no short people
Dont want no short people
Dont want no short people
`round here

Short people are just the same
As you and i
(a fool such as I)
All men are brothers
Until the day they die
(its a wonderful world)

Short people got nobody
Short people got nobody
Short people got nobody
To love

They got little baby legs
That stand so low
You got to pick em up
Just to say hello
They got little cars
That go beep, beep, beep
They got little voices
Goin peep, peep, peep
They got grubby little fingers
And dirty little minds
Theyre gonna get you every time
Well, I dont want no short people
Dont want no short people
Dont want no short people
round here

Buy you some Lacrosse Alpha's, you won"t care how bunched they are, they are cut right and they are comfortable.

Cabela's has the new Women's waders:

Cabela's Cazadora Waders

I'm 5'6" too. My waders bunch around the ankles. The crotch sags too. Just leaves more room for the boys to breathe.

My feets get cold because I buy the biggest Hodgeman stocking foots I can find, you could fit 5 of me in there but it's better having my feet crammed into one size too small instead of 4 sizes too small.

Reminds me of the last time I went wade fishing. Sisters new boyfriend was going. He asked "how deep do you wade". "About chest deep" I responded. He said "chest deep on you guys and I will need a snorkle".

My father in law is a salty ol' dog from Galveston and used to wade in the bay a lot. Other guys would come out after him as ask him how the walk out was.

"No problem, come on out." Half way there they were swimming and never found bottom - he's 6'9". roflmao

back I'm 6'4" and chest waders are really upper stomach waders...

Cause if you're in knee-deep water and step in a cow track, you'll drown. clap
