Ice fishing coat

[scout 2]

  Could someone tell me which is the better suit for ice fishing. The Vexilar or the IDI or the ice armor by clam. I need a new coat this year and was wondering which was the warmest and which was the better suit overall. I would like the  pro's and con's of each one. Is it worth the extra to buy the heavy weight coat or is the regular weight one just as good. I live in Northern Mich. so we get many days below 0. Thanks for the help.

My choice would be the IDI coat. It's light weight, but very warm. Plus it floats, the others don't.

I sure hope all this talk about the IDI stuff is right on.  I ordered a suit the other day through the IS Pro Shop.
Looking forward to being warm and "safer" this winter.  The demonstrations sure are encouraging.

FYI - I called Fish307 when I pre-ordered mine to find out about the green color.  They can get green as well as red.  They told me that it looked like they would be sold out before the order comes in on the 15th., recommended I get the pre-order in ASAP.
