I looked for threads like this a while back but its seemed all the good info is scattered about in different threads.
Not sure if anyone mentioned it but I wear gloves as well. Climbing rocks suck when your shorter and you basically have to jump and flop on them. I leave nothing on dry land as I rather move parallel along the shore from where I am while staying in the water unless I'm moving to a completely different area.
I smoke as well so I use dive rite weight pouches on my belt with a pelican case. I use a produce sealer for all pretied leaders and terminal tackle and just bite them open.
When I started I made the mistake of always getting on the furthest rock I could get out on but that sucks. Makes it a bigger project to move so you don't. If the fish are at the end of your cast then move out but if they aren't there they aren't there so move.
I think a discussion on types of wetsuits and brands will help people as well as I remember searching for it and coming up short. I use a xcel infinti x-zip 5/4. Just a upgrade from my older one. The bigger debate is a dive vs. surfing vs. whatever. Some say more stretch with a surfing wetsuit but less durability then a dive suit etc.
