After various good advice I settled for a Daiwa 24TDR 3012QD with a single handle I have only used it once so far and it seemed fine but still prefer a pin for...

    Vass wader sizing

    Not sure but try fitting a wading belt around your waist to pull the lower part up a bit. My Vass waders are very baggy but when kneeling to unhook a fish or whatever they are actually more comfortable than when I use my Orvis waders which were around £650
