Horne make great waders and they are available in waist or thigh length. I prefer the thigh length and have used them for years when surf fishing in Winter. I don't wade to fish, I just like to stay dry and comfortable. Also, the thigh waders make those little rest stops on a cold night a lot easier when you don't have to take off most of your clothes.
