5mm Sporasub two piece suit. I have done free diving in the day in the summer to night fishing all season long in this suit. If you get too warm you can add water and cool down, but it's pretty hard to add heat. I like being warm.

On my feet I wear 2mm dive socks in my wading boots, Cabela's Guide Tech boots, and korkers. These are BY FAR the best wading boots I have ever tried. Mine are 2 seasons old (200+ trips) and still going strong. Here is a picture of the boots at the bottom of my post.

You'll want a few extra items as well. Gloves for climbing up on barnacle rocks. The new Aquaskinz gloves are great, or you can buy some thin dive gloves. You'll want at least one back up flashlite for when you drop your headlight. It's almost guaranteed you'll lose at least one light. I get very thirsty when fishing, so I always have a water jug with me. I like to have everything on a teather to my belt when I wetsuit. My pliers, water, and boga all have places on my belt. My eel bucket has a secure lid so when I fall it's safe. I fall more in my suit because it is easier to just lay down when a wave knocks you. You'll see what I mean if you end up with a suit.

I think that might be about it. I'll add in if I think of anything else.
