Clothing:
The weather in Patagonia is constantly changing. One afternoon it may be 70° (+) and sunny, down right hot; then only a few hours later it may be rainy, damp, windy and in the low 50°s or cooler. It is not uncommon to have morning temperatures in the mid to low forties, especially when clear weather prevails, warming to a balmy 60° or 70° degrees by the middle of the day. Clothing strategies should be based on the "layering system." Here a formula that will work well for you.
Start off with a (synthetic) type fabric next to your skin. This often is a pair of thermal underwear (tops and bottoms) and they usually come in three weights: light, mid and expedition. According to your individual metabolism, pick what is best for you. Synthetic (non-cotton) materials retain little moisture and "wick" moisture away from your skin. This is very important when you are walking in waders or when outside temperatures heat up.
Your second layer of insulation should match the weather and conditions you are going to be fishing in, lightweight insulation for cool weather, mid-weight for colder conditions, and heavy weight for really frigid conditions. Fleece is an outstanding choice here in either tops and bottoms or overalls. Wool is also a good choice, as it stays warm when damp, but dries very slowly.
(Rain jacket & Waders): Your final layer should be a rain jacket and waders
