Splashed The New Wetsuit Tonight!

[Adam_777]

Question for you wetsuiters if ya don't mind.While wearing that thing are your feet staying wet the whole time ? One of the only drawbacks I can see at this point is wet swamp foot unless there's a dry boot/dry sock worn I can't see having wet feet for hours at a time.

Wondered that too ... also Larry ,, Did you change out in the street or drive home in it ?

Adam...sure can't be worse than a sweaty wader boot for 12 hours straight? Feet are wet....its a wet suit! It was awesome....and your feet are wet and clean not sweaty and smelly! I wore my Lycra shorts under my denim shorts, drove to my spot, put the suit on....takes less time than waders for cryin' out loud.......fished and then when I was done I just removed the suit, left the Lycra shorts on and put my denim shorts on and a t-shirt and sandals and drove home!

while i am also very close to joining
the wet suit brigade; my biggest drawback

is the higher tax bracket i'll have to join to
reach those oh so desirable SPOTS that can
only be GOT ten 2 by swimming there and
still be able to call yerself a surfcaster!!!

trouble is if YOU swim there so doesn't the reel have to be able to swim with you.
VS 275 would be my choice, then i gotts ta have a GS Loomis to pair with the reel,
fins, a summer wetsuit, then the special boots, a surf belt that swims(vs pliers,
surfbag for the drygoods, hunter plugs bag) then the boga, a scuba knife,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
what's that BB ~~about 1,000 to 1500 for ALL the bells and whistles??
sounds about right, to do IT right!!

there IS onehelluvalot to be said for the ability to reach those unreachables, be safe when the rogue calls yer name, and being able to piss while fishing if i lived in Aquidneck Country it would already be a done deal!! there's just toooo many swimmable spots that would FORCE me to take the plunge.

*plus all that cool gear and the suit makes you look like 007
on a covert mission to slay sum BIG arsed STRIPERS..............*

I looked more like Mr. Incredible than 007!

You are right though BD....all those other things are on my list! I have had VS Pliers for awhile and while I am not thrilled about spending $800.00 on a fishing reel.....its a must! For now I am using the cheap Spheros I have due to lack of funds at the moment! A good friend gave me a pretty sweet Ocean Master dive knife! New boots are on the way...used my felt bottom wader boots last night! You are right...its an expensive switch!
