There is a big difference between foul weather gear made for sailing or pleasure boating and gear designed to be worn by fisherman. If you are fishing, stay away from sailing gear.

If you get fish blood, scales, etc on sailing foul weather gear it will forever hold that stain or mark. They are not designed for fishing.

Get a set of Grunden's from Cape Fisherman's Supply in Chatham or Sandwich Ship Supply in Sandwich near the Canal. They cost about $125 for the Herkules bid style overall pants and rain coat and they will not let you down and last you for years.

I bought a very nice set of foul weather gear when I was a kid working as a charter boat mate and ruined them by Memorial Day! Buy gear designed for your use!!!
