Charlie's Review- New Grundens Vector Wader

I recently spent a few days steelhead fishing the coast and taking the new Grundens waders for a test drive. I've been wearing a pair of their Boundary Zip waders since they launched and have had excellent luck with them as far as comfort and durability are concerned. Needless to say, I was excited to see what the new offerings brought to the table!

The Vector

This trip began with a cold start. The snow level was very low in the Coastal Range and it was hovering around freezing. I was layered up pretty heavily for the first half of the day. I wear a standard large in most waders and the Vectors were easily able to accommodate all the extra clothing without getting too tight. The fit was spot-on. The generous chest pocket had plenty of room for gloves and all the other items I wanted to have at hand.

The first very noticeable feature of these waders was the fabric. It's soft and extremely comfortable. The articulation and freedom of movement was excellent. This was a drift boat trip and I was in and out of the boat several times throughout the day. I had no problem getting back in the boat in deeper spots, even with all the layers. Beyond the function of motion with the Vectors, the color was ideal for soaking up some sun in the cold. I was happy for that!

A key feature of the Vectors that significantly added to their comfort level was the design of the shoulder straps. The triangular piece of fabric on the back stretches and moved when I moved. This configuration also eliminates the annoying twisting of the straps when you're suiting up. A huge plus!

I think the Vectors are going to be a home run for Grundens and quickly become a favorite among avid anglers. They are very well-designed and at an extremely competitive price.

Charlie's Review- New Grundens Bedrock Wader

I recently got to spend a day fishing the coast in the new Grundens Bedrock Wader. The fit on a cold start with several layers was perfect. The first thought I had after putting them on was, "Man, are these things light"! I was really enjoying the lighter weight and breathability as the temps rapidly went from 30's to 50's. This particular day was spent on a smaller river with quite a bit of walking involved and they felt great. I was drift boating the day before and neglected to bring a pack to haul my gear. Fortunately, the bedrock saved the day. The ample chest pocket had plenty of room for everything I needed and then some.

I may be in the minority here, but I don't love wet wading. Especially in places where the air temp is high, but the water temp is low. Because of the excellent light weight and great chest pocket storage, the Bedrocks are going to be my go-to wader for early summer steelhead fishing this season.

New Arrival - Grundens Vector Waders

Hot off the press. The new Grundens Vector Waders! These are sure to be a winner. Rugged yet soft construction that articulates well. Thin padded knee and an awesome pass-through chest pocket. The Vectors are full of great features at an awesome price! Shop Grundens Vector Waders Here

Waders come in many different sizes from the manufactures and the most important piece of information we can give you no matter what kind of wader you purchase is make sure it's not too small. Check out this video we did over 11 years ago now by Greg and John to point out how important this is to ensure longer wader life and pre mature failure of your waders. Video is linked at the bottom of the page linked below.

Grundens 2024 - Be Ready!

Gundens became part of our lineup in 2023 and everything we tested and sold has exceeded expectations from our employees to our customers. We fully intend to continue with this outstanding line of fishing gear for our 2024 season and beyond. Are you ready!

Just in is the Gambler Gore-Tex Jacket. Flagship Gore-Tex wet protection for the boat angler but this jacket does so much more. From bass boat, skiff or drift boat, why take a gamble! Trust the Gambler.

So why are we selling Grundens? When Grundens came to us with their plans to build a Gore-Tex wader we listened closely. When they told us they will build a zipper wader then they had our solid attention. Knowing the reputation of grundens, seeing and testing the new Boundary Zip, well the choice was a no brainer. Solid wader with solid features and a company that can stand behind it.
