After having got my butt soaking wet,cold and shivering and having the
weather change half way down the stretch of the AuSable I now carry a
plastic one in my vest all the time to fit over everything. I have even used
large trash bags in an emergency

OK, never having owned a fishing raincoat, I have a really stupid
question. Do you wear it under or over your gear vest? I can imagine not
wanting to get the vest and all that gear wet, but I can also imagine not
being able to get access to all that gear either.

Or do you buy one loose enough to wear either way? That would make for one
very baggy jacket, imho.
