Wading boots
 

Heys guys, I am new to the 'yak fishing game, I freakin love it!!! I would go out in a pair of board shorts and wet suit top and freeze my ass off early morning being out there for 2 hrs. just purchased a pair of waders with the neoprene booties, now I just want to know, what are you guys wearing for boots? or are you guys just wearing them as is? Any input fellaz?

Once the water starts to warm up, (such as now), I seldom wear waders. If I do, I have a pair of Keen sandals that I wear over the booties. You can get them anywhere but I got mine at REI. These work great, especially if I have to walk a ways from where I park the car to the launch.

Buy a pair of cheap water shoes from Target or Wallmart. They work great. I pretty much wear my waders year round unless I am launching in the afternoon.

Dive booties work well too, but you won't be needing waders in a few more weeks anyways.

Check cabelas, they sell a neoprene wading boot with a felt bottom, nice and warm in winter. Be sure to get 1 size bigger than normal foot size. But those other options mentioed work good, as well as Krocs.

In the summer, I like to wear something like the aqua socks, or slip on shoes, then throw them in the hatch when I am done walking on pavement, and back to the sand. I wear waders year round, good sublock, unless it the heat is really bad, then peel them off.

Just get something, I have worn holes in 2 pairs of waders for not wearing boots, etc... :o

Crocs with a back on them. Nice and wide, light, they fit over the wader socks perfect.

Thanks guys! :you_rock:

good luck

wading boots alternative
 

I have been going out with dry pants waterproof socks and some cheap water socks. All sealed up, stay completely dry. Keeps from having cold miserable days on the water.
