    I discovered a small leak in my waders the hard way, wet britches. I thought it was a pin hole leak, or leaky seams. after putting some patch glue on the seams they still are leaking, does anyone know a good way of finding a small leak other than filling them up with water?

    I found a leak in a pair one time by taking them in a dark room and turning a flashlight on, holding it inside the waders and holding the top of the waders shut. The light shines through where the hole is.

    If you would stop peeing in them you would stay dry.

    pool test them- wear them into a pool and get back out quickly- the wet spot on your clothes will be right where the hole is.

    If the wet spot is at your crotch simply drink less beer.
