i ask because i am seriously considering getting a wetsuit this year after doing a lot of deep wading last season. aside from the fact that you seem to give yourself more options, it just looks like a lot of fun.
thanks for any feedback

If you're already deep wading, you might as well get a wetsuit. It's safer and more comfortable.
I don't directly connect getting deeper with catching more. I do feel I can fish where I want, when I want, more comfortably. So it's possible I'm catching more fish, but it would be tough to quantify.

I KNOW several of my big fish last year were from a spot that I simply can't reach in waders. And it is fun...
I bumped up the old wetsuiting thread as well. Take a look at it if you haven't already.
