Ice Fishing Suit Help
#2
I picked up a nice one peice two years ago.

it is still brand new, only worn twice. there is a reason that it has only been warn twice.

it dose not allow me full movement. I notice it most when riding my quad and shoveling snow and ice fishing.

I got the one peice to replace the thermal overhaul pants. I wear a fleece and a thermal sweater over top the overhauls and then my winter coat over that. I have yet to close up my coat even in temps down to zero. I am just as comfortable as if I was sitting in my living room, actualy wormer because I am moving around.

I think if you buy one on line you are taking a gamble on the cut of the cloth. Trying one on and move around in the store a bit, bend over and tie your shoes. do your side to side twist and reach for the sky.

these are all the movements that you use while ice fishing, the last thing you want is restricted movement when you need to land that hog. I swear every year some one is lowering the hole, it seems to get further and further out of reach. [:p]

worm boots is manditory, at least 1/2 size to 1 size larger than you normaly wear. spend the money and buy something rated down to 20 below. keep your feet worm and the rest of you will be much happier and wormer.

most people who cant handle the cold have poor footwear issues and dont know it.

as for the one peice you are refering to, I realy dont know anything about them. None of the good quality suits are cheep by no means. The one I got I picked up on a close out sale. It is a carhart. Good quality material, snappy looking suit.

the overhauls I picked them up at a fraction of the price at Home Depot 10 years ago. I sugest you go to a construction store and look at what they have to offer before you invest in to an online suit. At the vary least wait untill your buddy gets his back and look at the gib of the cloth before making such an investment.
