I blanked again!!!! except for a dose of health giving ozone.

Lads reporting being soaked... Why. Igot an industrial strength PVC all in one hooded brass zipped siut in the 80's from an industrial shop in Lynemouth next to the co op for £11.00. Alcan in full swing then. Canny bit more pricey now mind From that day rain was never a problem. PVC is totally impervious to the weather, rain bounces off. Some promising PVC hooded work wear on ebay for around £12/15.. being workware they should be strong enoght to stand fishing . get huge size to go over yr other gear and allow casting..soaking prob sovled for coppers. woven material will always let water in no matter what s claimed.

I used to have a Bear Skin fishing bib and brace suit (untill mice got into the jacket in an out house) for trout fishing which said waterproof, which to be fair was true to a degree,, but if out in prolonged rain it did take in espacially upper back and shoulders.
The smooth PVC is the business as an over suit..totally bomb proof ....hood up back to the rain ....dry as stix...but its got to be the robust industrial stuff. Some plastic rain wear on sale is paper thin and as litterally strong as tissue paper. Ebayuk selling brand new unopened military over all hooded chemical suits on ebay around £15.pp.. worth investiation ??
