word of advise, be carefull where and when you decide to swim out. to most people on shore, someone a few hundred yards offshore on a rough night is in trouble, not fishing. had the police and fire department out looking for us one night with spotlights. have heard of others having similar experiences.

also, i'd recommend loading up with all the stuff that you'll carry when you fish and going for a swim on a calm day if you're at all not sure of your swiming ability or overall fitness level.

that's all for if your actually swimming, for just deep wading and not having to worry about filling waders if you mis-step, just go for it, the wetsuit is much safer and more comfortable than waders and a dry top (and more cost effective since dry tops inherintly suck and don't last long at all)
