My rich friend Thomas Schreiber made an excellent point by suggesting One
word ) Simms Classic Guide Jacket + a Polartec fleece 200. A bit pricy,
but the best midpriced jacket on the market. It's worth every penny. Why
would anyone pay less for fishing clothes, when improper dressed is equal
to no fun?

Thomas, I agree! I have never been sorry for getting quality items,
especially for my outdoor adventures. I will give it some serious
consideration and see if I can revise the budget...

By the way, your pictures of your new born are awesome!

Its not my child, but a friend and his wifes child, but thank you anyway )

Reagarding the jacket. If you spend the extra bucks, you'd never have to
worry about your fishing jacket again. One thing less to worry about = more
time dreaming of fly fishing )

You can usually get the Patagonia lightweight jacket for around $100 at
closeout places like sierra trading post. I have one and it's been real
good and it packs up really tiny. That would be good for you, Chris, given
the amount of gear you bring (g).

It used to have a lousy zip but I'm glad to see they've changed it.

Apart from that I love mine.

Yep. I chose a closeout Patagonia kayak jacket. It is a pullover style
breathable with very nice neoprene cuffs around the wrists and neck. I
layer with fleece underneath to keep me warm. Judicious use of the neck
cuff allows for control of body heat retained under the jacket.
