Ankle Support is Everything. No
ankle support = guranteed trip to the hospital or a header into the
river. Any boot you buy must provide solid ankle support. Period. |
|
Felt or Studs? Felt is
the most common sole for wading boots, as they are easily replaceable
and work extremely well in helping you grip the rocks. Only in certain
circumstances does an angler need to use studs. |
|
Boot Drain Well? Some
of the less-expensive boots you'll find have one nasty tendency...they
fail to drain completely. The result is that you carry around a bunch
of water in your boot when you leave the river. |
|
Rot Resistance : Avoid
buying any boot that contains something that "rots"...such
as pure leather. Synthetic leather is one common boot choice and
which works very well. |
|
Clean & Dry Those Boots! We're
all guilty of it, but some are worse than others. Once you're done
fishing, be sure to air out the boots so they dry completely. And
it never hurts to wash them out in your kitchen sink or under a garden
hose, either...getting rid of any mud/grime/mold, etc... |
|
Sizing Wading Boots : Most wading boots
are sized "one size up," thus allowing room for the wader to fit
inside the boot, too. However, some boots are not sized up. Instead,
these boots state that the angler should order "one size up" from
their shoe size. The moral of the story is this....read the description
of the boots carefully to make sure you get one that is properly
sized! |
