Need New Bibs. Recommendation ?
Have been looking on-line at Guy Cotten as well as Grunden's.
Think I want lighter weight as I'll usually wear them only Fall and early Spring. Any recommendations ? Prefer to buy from a sponsor rather than on-line. Thanks in advance, Tom K. |

I have a pair of carharts that have done well for 3 seasons, I also have a heavier pair of grunden hercules, for the really nasty days.
Can't offer an opinion on any others.

Got a pair of these Stormrs a few seasons ago and love them... Very warm, comfortable and they float. Only issue is they are a bit too warm unless it's really cold.

if you want lightweight, you can't beat the Carhartt's. They make two models, the R39 and the R79. The R79 is lighter 40mm and the R39 is 50mm. Price is around $50bucks +/-

Re: Need New Bibs. Recommendation ?
Guy Cotten makes two different kinds or at least they did. I lighter type of bib and the heavier ones. I have the lighter ones for when its warm and your on a messy trip and the heavy Grunden's for the colder/mild trips. And when its really cold like when im black fish fishing my dad got me for X mas last year a set of the Stormr Bibs. Wow are these things warm. They are tighter to your body so the neoprene really keeps the cold out. Pairs up nicely to the Stormr jacket. I was sweating wearing that combo.
Id go with with the Grunden's. They are a little more heavy but you can wear them when its cold and when its warm. Wearing Shorts under them isnt that bad. And when its cold your normal jeans underneath works

Re: Need New Bibs. Recommendation ?
Thanks for the input guys. I'm gonna go with the lighter weight Grunden's.
I believe Petrus. I have a pair of lined bibs, an off brand, as well as several pairs of work-issued stuff. They just don't measure up. Thanks much for the advice. |

Go over and see Rich at Jersey Hooker Outfitters. He has a store over in Brick and Pt. Pleasant. He is also a sponsor here.
