It’s that time again when all the fair-weather anglers say farewell to the bank and head to the warmth of their living rooms. However, for you guys brave enough to face the weather, we’ll let you into a little secret and a suit that will make your fishing even more pleasurable.
Chub has managed to produce an all-weather suit that won’t break the bank but doesn’t compromise on quality. It consists of a jacket, trousers and fleece and offers a fantastic amount of protection from the harsh winter winds and the rain that we so regularly receive.

The jacket and trousers are a mix of breathable yet waterproof Climatex 3000 fabric that, unlike more commonly used fabrics, is much softer to the touch and a lot quieter than previous suits. They are constructed from Thermatex 5000 insulation to provide a snug, wind-stopping suit. The jacket also features a removable winter fleece, which helps to provide an unrivalled warm layer that can also be used on its own in warmer conditions.

The trousers are an adjustable, elasticated bib ‘n’ brace style, which is comfortable to wear and helps ensure a good fit. The other benefit of the bib ‘n’ brace style is that it helps eliminate any draughts. Another nice touch is the zipped flies, and the Velcro and zipped ankles create a tight fit around large winter boots, which is vital for complete protection.

Other features are an adjustable, insulated, peaked hood to help keep you sheltered when the weather takes a turn for the worse. Alongside the numerous zipped pockets, allowing you to keep your valuables on you at all times, are the handy chest pockets, which, with a soft, warm layer inside, are perfect for keeping your hands warm and ready for action.

Overall, this is a great winter suit with not only a great fabric and numerous features but also a reasonable price.
