guidewear but high.

Ditto what Larry said but try and wait for the black Friday sale where you might get a set for $400 OTD. My set is six years old and still looks new but I only wear them in the winter as the fleece lining makes them too hot for summer use.

What about coat only ?
Same brands but just buy the coat then. You may want to check out the H2O brand at Academy also Rodney.

I don't even know why I'm looking, I don't usually fish in the rain and now the lake level is down and I sure ain't gonna tear my boat up at the screwed up ramp at CFP

I have my guidewear on every trip in the winter, rain or not. The gortex outer shell is a great insulator for holding heat in and my set is X-Large to fit over winter clothing. Plenty of decent ramps on the lower end not called cfp.

Guide wear is great, a little high but you get what you pay for. buy the winter sets in the spring and the summer sets in the winter when they close them out...summer sets are starting to be reduced now as I just saw them in BPS in eastridge yesterday. Not a fan of the 100MPH suits as a side note.
 
You get what you pay for on rain wear....and taxidermy. Per my partners review this year, dont get the AFTCO hydronaut. I had a patagonia gortex that I bought in a sale for $180, that was originally $400. It was great and lasted for about 5 years before I wore it out. I now have a Kuiu Yukon Jacket for Hunting and fishing and its insanely dry but was insanely expensive, if it weren't for gift cards, I wouldnt buy it.
 
Guidewear. I have an insulated set that I got in '06. Works like day one. Bought a Guidewear light weight set for summer, about $200 after gift cards. So far, it is good.
