What would be the best VALUE for the $$$ or some WARM fishing clothes? JD I am having to agree with you on this one.

BPS 100 MPH Suit....a little more $$$ but worth every $0.01

A buddy of mine was fishing Falcon last Feb....cold windy and raining....the 2 guys with him offered $1000.00 for his...his answer....no way!

They will keep you dry all day no matter how bad it is....when you are running across the lake...you can't even tell....


They are the best!

Chris, what about the warmth, would we need to buy a size up for layered clothes? I have been frost bitten and dont do cold well anymore.

I'm 5'10" and I have the large and wear several layers under them....
I have fished Texoma when it's 18 degrees and was ok....that's just cold period!
Beauty of this suit it completely stops the wind..period...

They are $430.00 for the bibs and jacket...again $$$$$$$

But when everyone else is cold and wet....you will be asking for more!

That's what I have. I wear fleece pants and sweatshirts under em and stay plenty warm. Get u a good toboggan and a neck scarf and you'll be good.

I went out on two guided trips this past year when the weather was cold and rainy. I had resisted investing money in clothing. Even though I spent tons of dough on rod, reels and tackle. My wife intervened and for my birthday she bought me the
BP 100 mph bibs and top. I wear a layer of under armour and Cold Gear tactical hood under that and for me it is perfect. Room to move around in, but warm and dry. She bought me the red suit 100 MPH so if I flew out overboard someone would see me:)

If you a good deal which isn't perfect but pretty cheap you can get the carhart overall and frogs over that. The overalls are toasty with the frogs to break the wind. Not perfect but it will work

I wear the Carhartt overalls now, also for an emergency I have used a trash bag upside down as a tshirt under my coat, it will block wind also.

I would also check with www.mustangsurvival.com. One of the things I like about their bibs and jackets is that they have flotation materials built in, so if you fall in it will give you extra time. I know sometimes it's kinda difficult to wear a pfd with all those clothes so this helps out.
