When I was young and stupid, my brother-in-law and I fished out of canoes deep into the fall (until water froze) and right after ice out and we never even wore life jackets (yeah I said stupid didn't I). I'll do it now in my Hobie PA14, but since it's so damn stable, I won't bother with wet or dry suits. I'm in fleece and warm under garments and quality dry pants, top and 15" high neoprene boots and if the water is below 55, I will be wearing my life jacket. Neoprene waders or wet suits are so damn restrictive to movement, I'd rather layer up, put on the life jacket and fish small bodies of water or close to shore.
