Hurricane seasons here, looking for some mid priced raingear. Wouldn't mind hearing about some cheaper and more expensive stuff, tho. I have spent the last 3 years fishing in columbia top and pants, they just don't cut it any more. thanks all

I like my HH and Grundens. A little bulky if you are walking around a lot, but if so might want to get one high end pair as well. I always stay dry with HH.
I saw some of those breathables, I think Lami drytops, in a tackle shop. I can't afford $160 for a top. Any guys out here fish a lot and have another favorite that doesn't cost so much? Or should I just save up and get the lami?
^ These are best for a boat. anywhere else, think about how much you move, and if restrictions will be a problem. Columbia makes some decent mid-priced gear. You can find some online sales, and you're good to go.Quote:

If you want a cheap pair walyworld had a few Stearns sets for $20. They don't come near the other ones, butn are better than the average. The thickness on the jackets and pants was like a double thickness. For $20 they're great for a spare.
Grundens for rain gear.Lami and aquaskinz if you want to spend the $$ for a dry top or you could checkout Cabelas or LL Bean.
I tried on the Lami drytop, man it felt great and sturdy. I think the place was selling them for $175 or $185. Maybe next year. If you fish M a lot you would need the drytop.Quote:

Heard some good things about Calcutta raingear. Met a guy at Montauk who swears by em. I think you can get them in the $60-70 range, less if you shop around.
