So I’m a hip boot guy now. I’ve always viewed wearing them as being one step away from David Lee. But the two trout streams within reasonable distance of my house have banned chest waders and felt bottom wading boots to prevent the spread of Infectious Pancreatic Necrosis. When catch-and-release season opens on February 1st, I’ll be leaving the neoprenes and felt soles at home and plodding out in these jobbers. Rock on.
