I've tried a number of things to stop rain from running down my arms after several hours of fishing....anyone got a good one.  I've got quality raingear but maybe I'm getting to skinny in the wrists.  

Thank you

My rain gear has neoprene at the wrists that keeps the water out of my sleeves.

Maybe try wrist sweat bands as a cheap alternative to a new rain suit top.

My Columbia has straps with Velcro at the ends of the arms. It does a good job keeping the rain going up my arm. 

So maybe some Velcro straps or rubber bands, lol. 
 

hope this is what you meant. It has its limits but slonezp’s recommendation is 100% effective. ?

Thank you all...like fishing in the rain....have less company on the water.  I have  Guide wear and the neoprene is just not tight enough.  Tried cutting off the bottoms of some koozy's and putting over wrists.....nope.  Anyway...thanks

It’s impossible from what I can tell. @Dwight Hottle s idea sound like about your best bet. The water always seems to drip inside the jacket no matter how tight I make that neoprene/Velcro/ etc. 

 

or you could stand upside down and fish

Me too, and the fish don't care because they're already wet, lol.

 

I used Rivers West raingear all last year and never had water run up my arm. http://www.riverswest.com/4040-jacket.html

That’s pretty impressive for Michigan! Seems awful wet up there

I'm very impressed with that rain system. I fish in pouring rain both in my Triton and in a kayak. 5 stars. And it isn't a truck payment or two like SIMS or Gill. When the bilge pump is going off, you know it's a rainy day. And there's fewer jetskis which is nice.
