Default Keeping Cool In This Heat

Many posts have been made about what to wear in winter or cooler weather but what's the best to wear under waders and under waistcoats to keep as cool as possible and plase don't say "nothing" . I usually wear Hardy EWS fleecey type bottoms but they just make you stew in this weather . Maybe a pair of shorts ???

Fishing in this heat yesterday, I had a pair of cotton cargo type pants on and it was just right in breathables.
Best bit was when you waded deep enough to submerge the family jewels.
AHHH lovely.
The water temp in the Eden at the moment is very warm.

Go into a motor bike shop and ask them for wicking under leather suits

You can get them on ebay for all sorts of varying prices
