i tried the carpet on the wading boots trick this week they work
fanbloodytastic i could even walk along slippery wet logs with relative
ease, stood at the lip of an overflow with no signs of slipping at all
they
seem to work better than the feltsoled boots i had.
bought myself a wading staff so i can balance myself and now i can wade
with
complete confidence.
thanks for the tip guys
i always learn something in this group!


What kind of carpet did you use?
