the key is in layers. You've got to stay warm to be comfortable, yet you don't want to be cooking out there when the sun is out. You need sun protection, good hat is a must, plus sunscreen all the time.

I know some guys still like 'em, but I think wet suite is not for colder months. You're better of dry. You'll get splashed on a lot, so count on that. Waders are more and more popular, and that solves your problem for lower 2/3rds of the body - good splash jacket on the top, multiple layers underneath, and you're good. Waders are nice as you can wear whatever you want under them. When it gets hot, you splash water over them to cool off. Do wear you PFD all the time, you may end up in the water. Think safety first when picking out what to wear when out on the water.
