OK, now that the cat is out of the bag, please give us some more info on this product. Where can it be bought, how much, what advantages does it have over other doodoo colored fisherman-keep-dry jackets does it have? What's it made out of? Will it keep me warm in 20 degree weather?

I know, I know, I should've went and yo would've answer this and more at the show. I'm sure if you and Kadir helped design it, it will have all the features that a fisherman needs built in.

Is it impervious to Tog slime?

What's the website? Lurking elsewhere I see a deleted link, so there must be a pic/description somewhere. Am always looking for a lighter, warmer top......

Billy40, you want to wait for the Ocean Eagle edition with individual pockets for green crabs and whiteleggers.

Or the Flamingo edition which has an arrow to point Bobby in the direction of the fish. I need a crab holder, after Walter of the OE cut the string to my bucket, then cut the string holding my scissors to teh rail. Dammit, after that I could never find my scissors.

I "hear" it will be sold at Paul Melnyck's site, not 100% of the link though.

Hello there,

Oh my gosh… So many question! Ok, Ok, since the cats out of the bag, I can assure you that this is a good thing!

First of all, so you know, these jackets have been in the works for several years now and it is finally coming to fruition.

The truth of the matter is, there are many tops in the market that claims to be the best …and for the life of me, I personally have tried them and was quite disappointed! I had many issues and some are…It's not durable enough, the seams wears out quickly, and it's too bulky, too expensive, it leaks, not enough pockets, and did I say it leaks and water penetrates inside, not warm enough, and so on and on… With that in mind - A few hardcore fishers were in a serious quest for the ultimate top only to find out that it does not exist.

Now, What is Aquaskinz Inc.?… It's a team of avid and extreme fishers with various water sports backgrounds (boaters, kayaker, flycasters and extreme surfcasters) combined with one goal in mind… and that is to launch a revolutionary dry tops that will meet most of your demanding expectations! We picked the best material for comfort , the seams are glued and double stitched for maximum durability, and for added safety, we also added a highly durable and yet comfortable waterproof neck seal. In addition, The wrist seams are doubled cuffed with two unbelievably soft and yet waterproof wrist protections. If that's not enough in a top, we also have pockets, belts, and lots of neat but necessary features.

What does it all means? Well, it's the dream come true dry top… This is a complete top that meets the expectations of the most demanding users. We are talking about kayaking, boater, flycaster and the avid surfrat! And believe me, many involved dedicated their lives into this sport and WE KNOW WHAT IT TAKES!;)

Our Launch: We displayed our recent demo tops at the Federation / Freeport Show and the feedback was even greater than our own high expectations. Their responses says it all… Watching their gleaming eyes, a few even salivated and some called it a work of art. Gosh, are we talking about a top here? As for the shop owners… a few wanted to take order right away and they wanted to market over $350… Wow, that's not what we have in mind, but we will get back to them as soon as our marketing plans are available. :)

When can I have it? Anyway, we made the final finishing touches (yes, we are that meticulous about quality) and many of you will have a chance to order it just before the season starts.

In fact, in good jest, for those who did not get the chance to go to the Freeport Show -or - missed us… I will extend our FREE Aquaskinz dry top drawing which is valued approximately $200. It's our way to say thank you! The drawing will be held this April 15th and the winner will be notified via email and a phone call confirmation!

Simply forward me the following information to this email address: [email protected] verizon.net

I will need your name, address and a number where we can contact you.

You will also need to tell me the following… Do you Kayak? Do you fish from Boat? Do you flycast? Do you Ski?

So, go for it… Take advantage of this unique offer cause somebody is gonna walk away with an original Aquaskinz top. The winner will have a choice of either the "Hurricane" -or- the "Light" top. :)

One entry per person! No cheating, if I catch a duplicate… You will be automatically disqualified.
Good Luck!

Also, if you are a "qualified" potential vendor… Send me an email and we can work out the details.

Thanks! :)

Mr. Wetzel,
Thanks for your positive feedback! I kinda knew that you would be excited about the Aquaskinz tops because it is designed for hardcore fishers like yourself! Believe me, the tops are made of high quality and with durability in mind!

I am psyched about it too… The season is creeping in soon and I am confident that you will enjoy it for years to come!

Hey Billy40,
LOLOLOL… Only YOU could come out with questions like that! In fact, I never thought about it in that way but all I can say is… The Aquaskinz "Hurricane" drytop is designed for boaters too! For those that want comfort, extra warmth and most importantly, stay dry!

Is it Tog Slime-proof? Yes it is… as long as you wipe the slime off it! :)

The tops looked great, I especially liked the neck, looks pretty water-tite to me.
I will be on line when they go up for sale.

Hey Matty,
I am glad you understand the details of a quality top! Yes, the neck has a soft watertight turtleneck seam! So does the wrist! In fact, it has a "double" wrist cover one with a high quality neoprene and the second layer has soft latex like waterproof material for extra protection and water seepage!
Once it goes on sale... I will let you know! :)

Anyway, for those who have not taken advantage of the FREE Giveaway drawing yet… I strongly recommend it if you want a chance to win one of premium Aquaskinz drytop!
It's valued approximately $200.00 and somebody is going to win it on April 15th for FREE.
;)
