$1600? Jesus. Does that come with air conditioning too? That's worse than Sitka hunting clothes. We're talking about rain clothes here. I think I'll stay below the $200-$300 range as a recreational fisherman. My frogg toggs do just fine rolled up in my boat storage for spring through fall fishing to keep me dry in a pop up shower or on the ride back to the launch in the rain. I'm usually wearing gortex hunting clothes if it's winter time. If I know it's going to be a turd floating rain all day, I aint that mad at the fish. In Louisiana, rain usually brings lightning, and I ain't staying out in that anyway. Y'all crazy.

I run the 100mph Gore Tex from Bass Pro. We fish all day in the rain and stay dry. It’s the only rain gear I have owned that works all day. I have piles Frog Toggs and other brands that are either ripped or don’t work. They aren’t cheap but no good equipment is.

Not when you can have the whole drysuit for 1100.

Then all you'll need is a good hat.
(eta: top of the line - can be had cheaper)
