    A fresh pair of shorts is a lot cheaper.

    Frogg Toggs. Cheap, lightweight, compressible and surprisingly they work

    I searched rain pants for golfers. Much better selection and I ended up choosing some Ben Hogan pants that were on sale.

    Edit: I just checked and they are Water Hagen rain pants. The only drawback I found is they are elastic waist. There isn't a belt or drawstring. I ended buying suspenders to keep them pulled up.

    I’ve had a set in the boat for years. Lightweight, keeps you dry, and easy to store.

    Can't beat Frogg Toggs! They have entry level price and nicer more expensive stuff!

    Another Frogg Toggs. I keep 2 sets in the boat, even though I rarely fish in the rain.!

    This. I also use them for hunting hogs when it's wet, they are surprisingly durable for the cost.

    I got these Frogg Toggs Toadz bibs a few years ago. They are light weight, full leg zippers pretty easy to get on and off quick. I think I caught them on sale for $39

    Frogg Toggs. Been using them since I bought my first Ranger in 2005. Easy on and off on steamy days when you don't need them after a downpour till the next one arrives.

    I don’t have a rain suit that’s marketed towards fisherman. I usually buy back country gear as they tend to be more durable, last longer, lighter, and more waterproof.
