Want to get new rain gear for next year. Any suggestions on anything less than $200 for a set?

I really enjoy my "FrogToggs." They work fine for me and they always seem to have them on special.

I would suggest spending the money and getting the 100 mph set. I just got one spent $350 but after using it during a tournament this past weekend I would have given a $1000 for it.

I have the 100mph set and love it ,but gander mountain and cabelas both offer a cheaper version. It is one thing that i dont regret spending the money one

I'd also suggest spending the money on good GoreTex. Both Cabelas and BassPro have suits a tad cheaper than the GuideWear or 100 MPH suits that will work well. The money is well spent because the stuff will easily last you 10 years. If your experience is like mine, once you buy it you'll use it 5 times more than you originally thought. I'd say 80% of the time I use mine it's not even raining. It's great at eliminating wind chill.

Cabela's had some really good Guide Wear on Clearance. Now is the time to get it. It is the best that I have used. I have two sets and will get a Camo set to hunt in.

But for me to spend as much on a rain coat as I would on a small outboard , is not in my budget. I would have to wear it to church for $350

My problem is, every year I seem to require a larger size....I think they all shrink too much.

I got the Pro Qualifier gear from Bass Pro last year and I love it. Got it on sale for $129 for jacket and $129 for bibs. Bought the liner for the jacket this year and is a great combo for the price. Seems very durable and appears that it will last for years to come.
I tried on the 100mph gear but it was a little heavier, little more expensive and it didnt fit as nice to me as the pro qualifier.
