I have the Toadskinz jacket and bibs. They do ok in a heavy rain but their not for long term use. I have had a problem with the zipper on the jacket since the first day I bought it. It takes about ten tries to get it to line up so that it doesn't split apart. I should have bought the H2O's from Acadmey but they were all out when I needed a suit quick. In short....there better than nothing!

That's it Not for continued use I had a suit that soaked thru in approximately 1 hour of light to moderate rain. If you plan on being in rain for an extended period of time they suck. For a quick rain shower they do fine. I would consider them to be more "water resistant" than "water proof".

Save your money and buy a better product. In the summer you will sweat like a who-e in church.

When they first came out I bought a set to wear when it was too warm out to wear my Cabela's Guide rainsuit. That first set was pretty much junk. Recently I bought Frog Togg's Toadskinz bibs and jacket. They are much better than the first set I bought. Still not as good at keeping out water than my Cabela's Guide suit but much better than the old set.

I can stand them - good stow away for an unexpected shower...maybe.
Whether you think you can or you can't, you are probably right.

I just got a Columbia light weight rain jacket that is awesome. Frogg Toggs are great to keep in the boat, but for regular use, I'll take the Columbia jacket.
The solution to any problem - work, love, money, whatever - is to go fishing, and the worse the problem, the longer the trip should be. --John Gierach

They keep the rain off me. Was in a down pour last weekend sitting down and water was pooling up in my lap and didn't notice until I was wet. So as long as you are standing up they're great

Cabela's Guide Wear is top of the line, but has just gone beyond sky high to another solar system in pricing! I'm not sure where they find people who will pay $500-$600 for a rainsuit. Their "Tourney Trail" line is more reasonable, but it is definitely NOT for warm weather. I have one of those and like it a lot. It and their regular Guide Wear suits are great when you want to be protected in cold (or cool) wet weather. I bought the Cabela's Bass Guide Wear system when it was on clearance at substantial savings during the season change. The Bass specific model is rather lightweight and acceptable as a warm weather option. It's my go-to system for mild to warm weather. I will admit I would not be owning that one if I had to pay today's price, however.
I agree that what you get isn't as critical if it's for warm weather showers, which are no big deal. The premium gear is more important and on target when the weather would be miserable if you were wet.

I wash my rain gear...or I should say my wife washes my rain gear...after almost every time I wear it. Usually because it has a ton of catfish slime, shad scales, and fish blood on it. After a while it can actually stand up on its own and let's not even talk about the smell. I realize that I typically do a very different type of fishing than most of you guys. I don't usually post in this section but I was looking for ramp reports when I saw the thread and thought I would share my experience. If all you want is something to occasionally keep you dry during an unexpected spring shower, Frog Toggs are great. If you want something that will stand up to catfish slime, January storms and the occasional nacho cheese, I would get something else.

Say what? Because after sweating in them they will stink BAD! No need in smelling like a boar hog all day long.
