Hi Folks.

Does anyone wear a camo rash guard over their suit? Im considering purchasing a top and bottoms. I know there is discussion about the effectiveness of camo & I don't want to get into that. I'm just wanting to know if anyone is using a camo rash guard over their suit and if so their thoughts and/or problems?

Cheers.
 
Never used camo and still get plenty of fish, suppose you do look quite swanky walking down the beach.
 
I've worn a regular (black) rash guard over a slickskin suit before to prevent neoprene damage. It is less hydrodynamic... so I'd skip one if you already have a nylon-out suit.
 
I wear a top half camo rash vest. Doesn't cause any problems. Don't think there's such a need for bottom half camo if you're lying in kelp.
 
Thanks for the reply's. Think I will skip it for now and possibly get a top in the new year, to protect my suit if nothing else. Cheers.
