In the warm summer months (I only have a 3mm) wet suiting is just more enjoyable and safer than fishing in waders and a dry top. The drop top I have (Evo 2) is great but I can't really swim in it for extended periods without water seeping in so I have to stumble my way in the dark from rock to rock. In the wetsuit I can either swim or just bounce myself along off the bottom and its a lot easier and safer than trying to walk. This past year was my first season with the wetsuit and I didn't really fish any areas I couldn't fish in my waders/drytop I just found it more enjoyable. Next season I am planning on boating out to a few islands anchoring up and using the wetsuit to swim in to fish them from shore.
