I was pretty nervous about buying this jacket. It's more expensive than suits I've bought. It's worth every penny.

Not only is it dry, light, and bomb-proof, but it functions as a built in pack. I typically carry a sling but don't need it when I am on the water with this thing. The only down side is that I now look like weird when I wear it when it is a clear sunny day. It's that good. I love it and it is worth every penny. Go get it!

This is the most breathable and waterproof jacket I have ever had. I have been using it for a while now and it still works and looks like new. It is the perfect shell in any layering system. I typically use base, mid and this but there are so many options and this jacket always lets moisture out and none in. I don't just use it for fishing but anytime I know I will need breathable waterproofing. It has more than enough large interior and exterior pockets to haul all of my cold weather and/or fishing gear. Well worth what I paid for it.
