Warm out but damp maybe a pair of skivvies and the bibs and a pair of Muck boots. Cooler a pair of light wt long johns to mid wt if colder.
I own a few different camo patterns to mix and match. It is not so much the camo pattern but the movement at the wrong time that gives you away.

And I layer. Far eaiser to take it off than not have it and freeze. If you walk a lot you don't need much. But if you sit you need extra. Goretex is a great wind block.

I like my base layer to be poly propylene followed by a light fleece and then a heavier fleece and then maybe a goretex layer. I will wear no cotton.

This has served me very well.

Good advice. It helps to layer with camo so that there is less to do if you decide to shed a layer. E-bay can be your friend as well as there is often quality stuff for sale at a reduced price. Military cold weather gear is pretty good, and wool socks are a must. Speaking of wool if you get an olive drab army blanket this can help when sitting as wool is warm, and it does not reflect sun light.

Always wear gloves no matter what.

Good luck this season.

Default Ah, can't help you

Not buying much new stuff these days. Still have a 40 year old parka I had when I dragged out a deer in minus 10 degree weather.
Don't seem as enthused about the latest and the greatest.
Good luck,
