Patagonia Guidewater Jacket 

Pounding into the teeth of a nor'easter or swinging tips through the deluge – the Guidewater keeps you fishing comfortably long after other anglers have headed for the barn. This jacket combines our best knowledge of fabrics, design and technology to create a full-featured, highly technical piece of angling equipment. Waterproof/breathable, 3-layer stretch nylon, along with a 2-inch longer cut make this the shell of choice for skiff, bay boat and jet sled guides. Although the design ethic is minimalist, ergonomically placed pockets and custom-engineered "fish pulls" (which vastly improve waterproof reverse-coil zipper function) put everything you need at your fingertips. In other words, you can retire your vest. The tuck-away hood won't flap in the wind, and the brushed-fleece-lined collar provide decadent comfort. More fishing-specific details: glued-in waterproof zippers; drain holes in hem and pockets; attachment patch; rod holder; forceps/glasses loop; modified reversed StretchCoat® cuffs. The Guidewater is our longest jacket, 4 ¼" longer than the Deep Wading.
