So what can you guys suggest...I fish all year round from jan to dec...I am a trout fisherman. Money is an issue. I am willing to spend 150.00. Hopefully that is good enough to get a jacket that works all the time and for a long time. Thanks for any help in advance.

OB:
With regard to tech clothes and even including some of Filsons...it's chinese frankly when it comes to clothes and it's chinese I go off label and use gander mountain, cabelas or bass pro IMHO there is no reason to spend big bucks on chinese garments with label... no reason to spend on labels eg simms, columbia, cloudveil et al all my sims and cloudveil are early stuff made in USA and Canada...that really dates me...I personally like gander mountain private label...but like fly rods what store is close to you?? try out particularly cabelas they have a bargain cave in the stores always check that out...that's where you can find chinese bigtime labels discounted... consider two cheap jackets store private label...one very light coated nylon for summer pouched on belt...other cool weather wear it
