I am looking to get a new rain suit and I was wondering if anyone had any experience with the FroggToggs. I just wanted to know if they would keep me dry if I fished all day in the rain?

Good suit for the money
I was looking at them at a Cabela's store nearby. They look pretty flimsy to me! Not sure how they'd hold up to much abuse, but I've never had a set, so I can't answer with first hand knowledge.
But, as far as fishing all day in the rain, I don't think any rain gear is capable of helping you out there. Sure, they'll keep the rain at bay, but it's the sweat you build up inside that's a killer. A half doz. years ago my kids bought me a very expensive "Gor-Tex" parka for fishing in the rain. After less than 2 hours, I was sweating profusely! Now adays, I just don't go fishing in the rain!

I am buying my second set and also buying one for my brother. Never sweated in one and found out this spring that the wind did not penatrate the suit. Needed less clothes and was still warm and dry.
In the heavier vinyl's, I did sweat.

Mine were fine when they were new. I put them in my tackle bag. About a year later I needed them again. Pulled them out and they were falling apart. Stuff flaking off..... You get what you pay for.
To heck with work, lets go fishing.
Just okay. They work for a light rain, but hard to beat gortex for spring ,fall or winter. Bout the only time I use mine is in the heat of the summer.
I keep a suit in my boat all the time. good in the rain, and wind. Have to be a little careful about stretching cause they will rip.
I am very satified with them
Frogg Toggs are the best rain suit you can get for the $$
