What kind of pants do you guys like for the 50 degree times of year? I hate fishing in jeans.

Try some fatigue pants if you live near an army surplus store.

I have some Mountain Hardware pants I love. Most are water resistant but can get a little pricey. Also like North face.

X2 ....army surplus fatigues and for colder days try army surplus wool. You can find both very reasonable.

50 degree day would be Lee carpenter jeans for me. What wrong with fishing in jeans?

Sitka Gear Ascent pants. Expensice at full price. But can usually find decent deals. Somewhat wind/rain resistant. Plus they stretch. Very comfortable. Easy to layer underneath too. Tom

Sweats are great, or under armour hunting pants when it gets even cooler.

I have several pair of zip off pants that turn into shorts. Nylon for the warmer days and thicker canvas for the cooler days. I bet I have 8 pairs of zip offs. That's all I fish in.

Anything but cotton or denim in cooler months, takes days to dry out.

That's exactly why I didn't want jeans or military pants. I spent 7 years in the military and know the strengths and weaknesses of the uniform lol. Thanks for everyone's replies. I have decided to try a pair of HUK fishing gear pants. I will post a review after I test them. They were about $65 which I've found to be on the lower end for fishing/ outdoors pants.
