“I’m 5 foot 8 170lbs and bought a medium bib and jacket they fit great, and I can say the hydronaut bib and jacket is exactly what I needed for cold weather outer layer (North Mississippi). Fishing cold weather crappie tournament in drizzle rain and 15 mph wind, I was dry and warm. I was also very comfortable while while driving 65mph across the lake.”
“These bids are very well made and feel durable. They are a little harder to get into than bibs with traditional shoulder straps but once they're on, very comfortable. I would say the hand warmer pockets are a little too high on the chest for practical use but I'm normally wearing a jacket oven them anyway. I'm also trying to get used to the inner fly zipper. I'm not sure why it's there and may end up cutting it out for ease of use. I would say they run big, I normally wear a large but the medium fit perfectly. Overall I'm happy with the bibs and would buy again.”
“Took the hydronaut bibs and jacket out for a field test on a cold morning and it did not disappoint. Used as my outer layer with a reaper underneath I was warm and did not mind the wind or cold while running 65mph across the lake. They kept me comfortable so I could continue to sling plenty of slab crappie into the boat. As the day warmed up I was able to just shed the outer jacket and stay comfortable. I’m 5’8” 175lbs and the medium in both fit great with a little room for extra layers.”
“I fish tournaments here in Eastern/ middle Tennessee and it rains a lot here in the spring rainy season. So I needed a good pair of rain /waterproof bibs and these are without a doubt the BEST weather proof bibs I could ask for ! Good job aftco I applaud your attention to detail for me and all other avid fishermen ! Also Aftco, if you need any help reviewing your products don’t be afraid to reach out to me and I’ll help you out .”
“I love them! I’ve been a fishing and hunting guide in Oregon for 24 years. I’ve been an ambassador and pro-staffer for several major brands of waders, wading jackets and fishing apparel and these Hydronaut bibs are by far, the best designed and angler friendly bibs I’ve ever had the pleasure to wear! Bravo!! Very well done! I’m getting a pair for my bride to wear so she’s as warm, dry and comfortable as I am on our salmon trips behind our home on Oregon’s Umpqua River.”
“I had one pair of bibs that I got wet in during a heavy rain and sure enough Aftco replaced them for me since they were less than a year old... Very happy!”
