Nah, snake. You don't want boot foots for the kind of streams you fish and
the kind of fishing you do. No dexterity, too slippery, too cumbersome.

Here's what you do. Get the stocking foot breathables with plenty of room in
the seat. And don't worry about how they look, when one foot is down in the
hole and you're trying to stick your other foot on top of the rock that is
over your head your figure will show off nicely enough, thank you very much.

You will need wading boots with plenty of room for your stocking foot..if
they are snug, they are too small. You want to have room for foot wiggle,
just as in good hiking boots or your feet will get cold due to your
circulation being cut off. Get wading boots with a 'thin' insert or
cushion. You stocking foot wader will provide plenty of padding for the
soles of your feet.

Then when it gets too warm for waders, you put a Dr. watshisname cushioned
insert in your wading boots and this will take up the slack left by not
having the stocking foot.

That way you can use the same boots for cold and warm weather.

what has been ya'll's experience with bootfoot waders? with spring comin
(soon i hope) i am thinking of getting a pair of three forks 420 denier's,
but they only come in a bootfoot for women. so, i'm wondering about the
comfort level of the boot, as well as the maneuverability factor, and
anything else i may not know to ask about. any *constructive* ;-) input
would be appreciated.

thanks-
