    Summer Rainsuit

    Looking for a good summer rainsuit. What are you guys using?

    I have a 100 mph bass pro suit and it’s great for cooler weather. Just trying to find something not so heavy for 65 degrees and up.

    That’s a real tough question the more south you go. Anything down here that keeps the rain off, makes you sweat. Barefoot and ziploc with clothes and a towel is what I use in the summer.

    I’d suggest looking into hiking gear. IMO much more durable, lighter, more breathable, packable and longer lasting than those marketed towards bass fishing.

    I don't fish in the rain any more.
    I brought a new like ,use Simms Jacket from the
    board and the bibs on line as
    new old stock.
    Think they came out with a new style?
    Has a Guide wear suits for the colder months.
    I kept these in the boat, in case I get caught out in the rain.

    Have a couple of the old Coleman suits and they work just fine. Remember to let them dry thoroughly after using...........

    Tidewe just came out with this one and I plan on getting one before next spring. I have bought a bunch of their hunting clothes and have been impressed so far.

    I have had great luck with frogg toggs. Not the cheapest ones, little higher end.

    Wear them in Venice Louisiana in August. It seems it rains every damn day there in the summer.

    I'm a fan of the GILL light as well. It's all I use in Louisiana. If it gets cold, I just layer underneath.

    I just get wet in the summer if it’s hot. I only own one rainsuit though. Something you can layer in the winter to stay warm or use it in the summer if needed. No reason to own 2.
