The Grundens Gore-Tex Pro Fishing Bib is a Gore-Tex fishing bib designed for demanding conditions. The bib withstands extremely harsh weather and fishing situations where there is no shelter from the elements and where spray finds the legs first. It suits highly active anglers who stay on the water late into the autumn, fishing guides who need equipment that lasts and protects, and of course commercial fishermen who cannot choose the conditions of their working days. The bib is an equally sound choice for anyone active outdoors or on the water – whether that means a gusty rain shower on a lake, a cold stretch of rapids on a salmon river, or a day offshore where the deck never has time to dry. Gore-Tex Pro is Grundéns' most durable and most uncompromising fishing bib. The trousers are made from a 70D GORE-TEX Pro 3L ePE shell construction. In this three-layer material the face fabric, the waterproof and windproof membrane and the inner backer fabric form a single structure. GORE-TEX Pro is intended for hard use in which protection, breathability and abrasion resistance all matter at the same time. The construction carries the GUARANTEED TO KEEP YOU DRY promise, and according to Grundéns the new ePE laminate is around 20% lighter than the previous GORE-TEX Pro construction. The face fabric has a PFAS-free DWR treatment that helps water bead off the surface. The solution-dyed Micro-Grid backer on the inside increases the material's puncture, tear and abrasion resistance and slides well over base and mid layers. The 70D outer shell fabric, in turn, is designed for demanding use in which the knees, legs and seat readily come into contact with the boat deck, the seats and other surfaces of the fishing environment. The cut is shaped for a fisherman's movements. In these trousers it is easy to cast, crouch and kneel without the construction pulling tight or restricting movement. This stands out in a boat, where you get up, sit down and move about constantly in a small space throughout the day. The high upper section also keeps the lower back protected when bending over. The leg zips reach above the knee and make the trousers easier to put on and take off with boots or fishing shoes. Large thigh pockets keep bait, small accessories and tools quickly at hand. There is also zipped storage on the chest and hand pockets, so the most important items have a place even when the jacket pockets are covered by other gear. According to the manufacturer, GORE-TEX Pro products are tested with GORE-TEX's Storm test method. The Grundens Gore-Tex Pro Fishing Bib is intended for the angler who uses their equipment a great deal and needs the most reliable possible waterproofness, breathability, freedom of movement and service life from a pair of trousers. Together with the Gore-Tex Pro Fishing Jacket it forms a highly protective combination for demanding fishing.
