For real though, I have had the BPS100 setup for about 5 years. Heavy heavy use. With exception of the pockets coming unsewn on the insides of the bibs and a zipper that sticks a little on the jacket, they’re really good and keeping me warm and dry. A wool sweater and a pair of sweatpants is all I need under them to fish in 30-50 degree weather. They get too warm in 65-70+ degrees.
Eat. Sleep. Fish.

I have a 20 year old set of Cabela's Guidewear which are great in cold weather. Too hot for much else though.

Cabelas Guide Wear Gortex bibs and jacket have given me about 10 yrs of warm/dry winters and they still look great. Get em when they have an online sale. Goto the store and try the sizes on there, get on store computer and order “online” for “store pickup” and walk out with them.

For the $$$, I gotta say that the Academy stuff is pretty darned good. My wife has had hers for about 5 years now and we have fished some some pretty brutal stuff in that time. She has complained about everything while on the water with me, from "front ending" her to "what was I doing when I practiced?" but I have never heard her complain about being cold or wet. That is all the proof I need to know the stuff is good.

Always had luck with my 2 sets of Guidewear they never let me down. In saying that I just bought a set of Simms insulated.

Academy's H2O bibs and jacket. Warm, waterproof and under $200 for the set. This is what I have a really like the set. I can layer underneath and remove layers as needed.

Quality goretex suits. I have both bibs and the pants. I use the pant for less cold and less rain days and if it's really bad I put the bibs over the pants. Goretex parka on top over a light rain jacket. Some people say overkill but Im guaranteed to be dry no matter how bad it gets, over spray, etc. I never get insulated, I just layer up underneath
