Wading Jacket Checklist

Warm Enough? If you can only afford one jacket, buy one that is warm enough to meet the coldest weather fishing that you do.
Enough Pockets & Attachment Points? Like a fly fishing vest, a wading jacket should have a good supply of pockets and places to attach your other gear.
Waterproof? Virtually all wading jackets are, but some are only "water resistant," which is basically useless in the rain. Thus, get a jacket that is waterproof with either Dry-Plus or Gore-Tex. Both these fabrics, besides being waterproof, are also breathable.
Lose the Rubber Rain Jacket. Rubber doesn't allow your body's perspiration to escape...thus essentially making you wet (and cold) as the minutes turn to hours. Rubber (and other fabrics that do not breathe) rain jackets are uncomfortable and useless.
