Use Definition 

Fishing and Wading Activity: In the context of wader use, fishing and wading activities refer to the actions and movements involved in fishing while standing or walking in water, which may include short walking distances through wilderness terrain to gain access to water. .

These activities typically involve exposure to water, rocks, and other natural elements, which can impact the wear and tear on waders. Proper use and care are essential to maintain the durability and functionality of wading gear.

To learn more about proper use and care, see our blog: Wading Gear Care.
