I’ve been on the hunt for a pair of women’s waders for quite some time now, but didn’t want to purchase online since I didn’t want to deal with wait times for sending returns/exchanges in the mail. I found this store through the Orvis website yesterday, crossed my fingers, and called asking if they had any available..and they did!

I bought a couple Fulling Mill fly boxes, a Orvis Hydros fly reel, with Scientific Angler fly line. The shop owner put the line on the reel with backing, which is standard for most shops.
