    Anyone recommend where I can pickup a waterproof pair of Bib & Braces for a reasonable price, some of the stuff I'm finding is crazy money

    I got a decent set in Southside Angling last year - admittedly the only use they get is for cycling in poor weather, but I haven't had any problems with them.

    If you want breathables then I have only found only the expensive ones work cheaper ones such as Snowbee, Airflo, Greys do not if you are doing a lot of boat lock fishing. Sitting down on a hard boat seat even though they have neoprene bums is where they fail. The only 100% solution for all round for salt and freshwater is a good PVC but obviously you will sweat during the warm weather. I now use Musto MPX sailing Salopetes really expensive but got them at a brilliant price in a Musto outlet shop in Swindon ,UK.

    I always find the sundridge stuff quite good. Not eyewateringly expensive and I've always been happy with the quality. A quick google search will give you a stockist in your area.

    Lads just for info, I was in Army Bargains off Capel street on Saturday and got a Set of bib n braces for 29.99, fully waterproof and breathable, I doubt if they'd be very warm in winter though, but won't know till I try them out
