Guy Cotten Surf Top

The Fisherman had a piece on a new surf top from Guy Cotten the week before last. Breathable pullover with a hood and adjustable cuffs and neck. Their website has nothing on it, has anybody seen one in person? Looks good, also wonder what the price range will be

Cool

I saw one and tried one on at the Long Island Fisherman Seminar this month. it was little on the thin side to me and I like the rubber cuffs...

same price as other quality tops, but to say it is as good as the popular tops available is like comparing apples to bananas! IMHO.

the full moon looks orange sometimes when it rises because the light has to pass through more of the atmosphere then when the moon is higher in the sky. the blue light waves scatter but the red light waves pass through...... if you were wondering.

For the same money, I'd buy the aquaskinz phantom jacket.

This is without a doubt the best jacket I have ever owned. I've retired my BARE jacket for this one and haven't looked back.

Looks good except for the giant logo on the sleeve.

If you're getting ready for fall we've got them all in one place.

Aquaskinz, Guy Cotten, Grundens, and more...

Thumbs up

I just bought one today at Causeway Bait & Tackle in Wantagh. Neoprene cuffs have a good fit with velcro adjustment and the neck cuff is adjustable to fit you or leave it loose if the conditions are not that bad. Breathable Dremtech+ material and it comes in black, my favorite color and I don't have to feel like I'm a walking advertisement (small inconspicous logo). Very nice top at $188.09 with tax. I'll probably still use the Skinz top in real bad weather but this top will probably get the most use.

That's what he paid for it 4 years ago. ;-) I never got that jacket. The arms were too short for casting IMO

I have my eye on that. What I like best about it is that it is black and does not have a logo blazoned across it. STEALTH!

My buddy has this jacket, 220 from the edge.

Arms are short compared to the size of the jacket.

I'm looking at the precision pak jacket.

Must be inflation?
