Vince, whatever the hell you choose, just make sure your best fishing bud doesn't buy the same exact model. I see this in the flyfishing world a bit more (ahem) than I care to......two guys in matching outfits- same jacket, hats, waders, rod, frickin' wading boots.....just a bit too scripted for my taste. The Tweedledum and Tweedledee routine must be avoided at all costs!!!

I've gone through a bunch of jacket brands and right now I'm using Dutch Harbor Gear coats. They're pretty inexpensive and have done the job well...but what the h, I'm in retail so I get free samples!
