Fishermens feet

[chris138]

Good info Bob, glad you found some ergo footwear that can help you get on the water!

On a related note, i too have discovered my ideal footwear for kayak fishing. My new kit is my stockingfoot waters with an oversized pair of crocs. Got some cheap size 13 crocs on amazon, and they slip right over the stockings. In my experience, the first thing to go on waders for us is the stocking seams. Wearing the crocs over waders for parking and rigging the yak, then I stash them in the hull once I'm on the water.

Good news Bob I tried crocks in gonza and the beach rocks stay in them.

I have had no rocks in these and have used them at Gonzaga for 4 trips going on the quad and fishing the beach. So far they are really doing what I need done.

I'm just glad that you found shoes that work for your feet.

Bob, have you tried just taking you shoes off when in the kayak? Might give it a little more boost of healing.

How many of you guys wear waders while on our boats? I've always thought of it as a drowning risk (turtle, water gets in waders, creates extra weight to make PFD ineffective.)

I've always just worn water friendly flip flops to unload/prep, and then taken them off once I launch. Just don't forget the sunblock.....

I agree 125% with ocean water healing wounds, HOWEVER the same doctors who want that foot emphatically say NO WATER CONTACT. That did not work for 4 months so it is time to do it our way. Baja salt water, lot's of air, SoftScience shoes and continue to treat and heal the foot. Tight Lines. And I did forget Buddha's discount.
