Default Re: Wading traction?

You buy cheap you get cheap. I have a pair of boots that I bought over twentyfive years ago at Ramsey outdoor for $99 with felt and spikes for fishing the SR. I have used them on the rock wall in the salt.the eyelets are rusty but the boots are STILL useable today! Does anyone know if felt soles are banned on SR and or the upper West Branch Delaware? Thanks
BTW keep an eye out for Cabelas they have good sales or if you ever get the chance to go to the store go see what they have at the Bargin Cave.
Hope this helps out and good luck!

I totally agree with this post, you get what you pay for. I bought a pair of Cabelas wading boots and they are probably the most comfortable boots I have ever owned. The only issue is that they must not have that rigid piece in the tread for the studs to screw into. I have lost so many studs its not even funny.

If I was to buy new boots I would go with the Orvis Encounter boot. I bought them for my son and he loves them. They are reasonably priced, great quality, and the studs haven't fallen out!!!

I second the Chotas for durability and comfort. You get what you pay for.
