Hello all. First time poster, long time reader. This is my first full year salmon/steelheading the rivers of this great state, and this site/forum have been more than a great help. Thanks Bob, job well done.
My nine year old son is just as addicted as I am with this great sport, but the problem is I cant find any waders/hip boots in his size. I've tried all the sporting goods stores including Sportco. I looked through a few Cabelas catalogues also, still no luck.
Do they even make em that small?
Thanks for any and all help from a 30 year old rookie.
P.S. Ill be at the Nisqually tomorrow in hopes of finding one of those bright chum.

I saw some youth size waders and hipboots at http://www.berrysbait.com Look in the Bare wader section.

Have you tried looking on cabela's website? I know for a fact I've seen them in there catalogs. Just tibe in Cabela's as a key word in your serch ingine.

BassPro Shops- take a look at these,hope it will help.

For a quick fix I would suggest running to Fred Meyers. I the one in Lacey/Olympia has youth sized hip waders for about $25. I just bought a pair for my ten year old. Just buy them a couple sizes too big (havem em wear extra socks) and he will get a couple years out of them. If you find small neoprenes, let me know.

I have a 11 year old that goes with me I bought his at bobs sporting goods here in longview. I know it would be a drive but If you cant find them anywhere else let me know

Try Outdoor Emporium in Seattle. They had youth sized hip boots last winter
located at republician and pontius streets.

good luck

Thanks for all your help. Think Ill try the Fred Meyer in Lacey first (Thanks RW)
BTW - One fish caught at Nisqually Sat, not by me though.
