It's lookin like Simms Contender fits the purpose. I'm kinda over Patagonia they burned me bad with that H2NO gArbage years ago. To their credit I got a full refund.

The minimalist wading jacket from Patagonia is in my opinion the best fishing jacket for the money, and they are on sale now. If it's raining really hard, I just put on a rubber jacket over the wading jacket even thought the wading jacket keeps me dry, I just like the extra protection and warmth. I just ordered another one as a backup since they are on sale and I don't like their latest two color version. They are pretty light weight but durable and pack well. I really like the felt lined hand warming pockets and the chest pockets are pretty substantial.

But we established that we are wearing waders. If you sit down with waders on and your ass gets wet, something is wrong with your waders.

So true.
The moisture must be coming from the inside.

"Think away from "fishing coats" and look at everything in the marketplace."

Great advice.

Perhaps Depends has the perfect product to help Breezy keep his A$$ dry?
After speaking with him they will probably throw in a free pacifier too.

Where else on the web can you ask for advice about fishing coats and get completely throttled and get good feedback at the same time. I love PP

"Moisture" in his waders, ....now that statement has serious legs!

It all boils down to this - I'm right, everyone else is wrong, and anyone who disputes this is clearly a dumbfuck.

Vision sucks....

Grundens Weather Boss is a good jacket, kinda spendy tho... SG's option is very very smart, plus if you dont need it you can take it off and not lose a bunch of heat as you are still layered underneath...

if your back gets cold, i take it you wear wading pants? either that or you went to the wrong isle when you bought your waders... well maybe not....

Nice no-frills jacket... even comes Ornamental color.

Oh wait.... that' s the ONLY color.

Visions coat works as advertised. It's a light fabric, waterproof, inexpensive coast made in bulk over seas that keeps water off of the wearer when warn and used in the appropriate manner.

Yeah, so a few zippers and a couple of sleeves fell off a couple of early production Vision Coats and so they had some delivery issues. Those are all a thing of the past

It's not Visions fault that people wear this coat and choose to either snorkel or swim in the river with it. Anyone that chooses to snorkel or swim in a river is going to get wet on the inside, regardless of the coat they use.

At least this is how I would picture the argument to go......

Fact, if you sit on wet surfaces wearing waterproof breathable fabrics, the pressure pushes water through. With my fat a$$, it pushes through faster.

I just noticed the change in Beezy's status.

ROFL!

Not it, by the way! I am a bit disappointed in myself for not thinking that one up first. Dammit!

If your just sitting on your A$$ and not generating any heat then why do you even need breathable??

When you slip on your Simms garments, with the company logo written all over the outside in big letters, I know you guys feel like superman putting on his cape. What it should say is,
"I just spent a ton of money, pushed against something moist, and now my A$$ is wet.

Waterproof and breathable in the same garment is a sales tactic.
Breathable fabrics leak, don't breath, or do a half A$$ job of each.........Period.

Get out of the fishing circle of gear, I looked into a good climbing/hiking rain jacket and haven't looked back.
The company I trust is Mammut, have had one of their medium weight climbing jackets for 8 years now and it still sheds water well, lasts thru a good Forks soaking...and is long enough (since it's a hiking/climbing jacket) that is covers my ass.
It's just another thought and another recommendation but if you've never seen or tried on their gear you owe it to yourself to do just that.

Well some of us have this thing called a pro deal (including me), so we buy Simms if it fits the purpose at prices we'd be crazy not to take them up on. The trouble is, I'm still not buying much Simms with the deal cuz they aren't as good as they think they are or all the fly guys think they are.
