Default Walking, Wading, Wearing?

Assuming I do, I have a question about current footwear. I absolutely
have to have good ankle support ( indeed I wear braces ) and some of the
places I hope to visit will require wading to fish well. So, what's out
there in the way of footwear that will double as a hiking boot and wet
wading boot? How would YOU avoid potential blister/etc problems of
walking back home in soggy socks?


There was a comprehensive comparison on wading boots in one of the FF mags last
month. Pros and cons and prices. I forget which one. Maybe someone else can
recall.

Reviews and comparisons in the FF rags are nigh on useless. You cannot
expect an honest and impartial review of a product on a page opposite
a full-page ad for the same product. Which is why we ask each other
for impartial opinions here on roff.

But good luck with that anonymous prick thing you've got going. You're
really getting it down pat.

Not Bob is OK
Hev is cools as are others not mentioned before like Tim the Halfordian
Golfer and Frank Reid -again my apologies to others not mentioned
But
Re Not Bob
He is just certainly Not Bob!
He may be Richard , Frank, Allistair, Percy or Cyrus but he is not Bob!

He remains anonymous which is his option and OK by me

I think the reply he was looking for was "By Jove, I think she's got
it!".
