Just a comment...If the choice is close between the Simms and the Aquaskinz, I would suggest a potential customer consider two intangables.

First, Aquaskinz is here there and everywhere. Monitoring the boards, responding to our questions and comments. You are not going to have to call an operator at an 800 number to get Aquaskinz. The skinz number get to Kadir himself, he is at the shows. I like the personal touch and the fact that Aquaskinz is a company owned by and staffed by fishermen, making products for fishermen.

More importantly is the fact that in a tough economy Aquaskinz is a supporter of the recreational fishing community. Besides being a sponsor of this and other sites,they donate to causes and raffles that we support. They support MSBA, RFA, and other organizations that fisht for ouyr rights. When was the last time Simms donated to your club or organization????
I think this should count for something, actually I think it should count for a lot.

If we do not support the companies that support us, we get what we deserve.
