Looking at ice fishing suits and what not has anyone ever heard of clam ice armor or possibly used there brand curious about there quality and warmth? If not there brand what do you use and how do you rate it?
Here's there link http://clamoutdoors.com/ice_armor/ou...reme-suit.html
Artic Armor is not only warm, waterproof, wind proof, if you fall in it keeps you afloat would not have any thing else when on ice or in boat in cold weather.
I bought the clam ice armor suit before the arctic armor came out and it is warm water proof wind proof and heavy and if you fall in you'll sink like a rock but I love it for winter fishing.
Others with the arctic armor I've fished with love their suits but it appears to me the outer fabric on the arctic armor is not as durable as on the arctic armor. I did hear of someone with ice armor that had a pant leg zipper malfunction and understand after some hassle they finally got a free replacement.
Being a fan of Gortex, I ended up with one of these http://www.ebay.com/itm/GORE-TEX-Cov...item3cd8962cbc
Over coveralls when very cold or over regular clothes as rain gear. Windproof and waterproof of course, I never go anywhere without my autoinflate PFD
clam makes good stuff but Artic Armor is the way to go

Burrrr
I have a frabill love it. It has a front zipper to pee through very important when it is cold.
I went with the Striker predator this last year and it didn't last 1 season. Had a problem with my right knee getting wet while kneeling plus the outter fabric on the bottom of the leg woar down. Bought mine at the St. Paul ice show for a good deal, because I wanted the adjustable length but not sure it was worth it for only 1 season. I also have a pair of Ice Armor bibs that i've had for 4 years nows that are in better shape than my Striker Ice. Need to be a little more durable for an ice head like me.
