Any Northeast angler who ever cast a rod along the surf in late autumn--water freezing in the rod guides, cold almost making the clench of your hands difficult to release, the spray of crashing waves in the chilly air--knows one thing.

Dressing for comfort is particularly important.

But even during balmier seasons, fishing in the surf requires more attention to dressing and gearing up for comfort than other types of angling.

It’s only you and the elements: the water, the sun, the winds, the rains, whatever. You’re a self-contained unit on foot, no boat cabin for shelter, no big tackle box for gear.
The folks at AquaSkinz set out to design clothes and gear for this type of fishing that was unavailable before.

The company is now mostly known for tops and jackets ranging from rugged, neoprene dry tops for maximum protection in cold, wet conditions to lighter-weight, semi-dry jackets made of a mix of waterproof and water resistant materials for warmer, milder weather.

Noreaster Jacket.

The clothing features aspects such as ergonomic designs, cuts built for freedom of motion, breathability, wind proofing, neck and wrist gaskets eliminating water entry, hand warmers, generous pockets with drain holes, reflective trim for safety, stowaway hoods and built-in wader belts.

Some of the outerwear has also become popular for kayaking, skiing and other sports.

But AquaSkinz also provides other gear and accessories, including several lure bags for surf fishing; different types of pouches, like for holding bait and lures; wading belts; gloves; a dry hood; a chum bag; and more.

All the products are saltwater grade. Many are intended for maximized space, and all are created for ease of use. The bags, pouches and accessories are designed to interact with each other to create an organized system, depending on personal uses.
