Thxs Tim. I consider myself a tenured fisherman and a few of your tips were things I never thought of. Picked up the Dr Scholls today and ordered the speed laces for my new Simms G4s! Thxs again!!

Good tips for lace boots which I had for several years. Though they cost a little more, I’m now a big fan of Korkers boots with the BOA lacing system. They’re very comfortable, rugged, have interchangeable soles, and are incredibly easy to put on and take off.

Great advice, look for felts that are designed to accept studs. Also looks like the parking lot at Rothrock

I’ve been wearing Orvis Pro’s for the last 3 seasons. Absolutely the best wadding boots I’ve ever owned. Biggest complaint, of any boot, was that laces never stayed tied. Definitely going to try the Chota ones. All ready ordered them lol. Personally I’ve noticed with the Orvis boots, I haven’t needed the studs. It’s been nice not having to take them out when I’m using my boat. But, I also don’t fish the eastern rivers and maybe the rocks here in the Great Lakes are not as slippery.

Great ideas, especially the laces. Fly-fishing for 40 plus yrs, my tip is to install Rock Treads! By far the best I've ever waded in

I know it would be a little work but maybe if you ground the tips off of the motorcycle studs you could eliminate them coming through your boots. Yes, ice racing on motorcycles is a thing, but they only put studs on half of the tire because of you're using the other half of the tire you've already wrecked (they race on an oval track). Keep the good stuff coming Tim.

@TimCammisa Жыл бұрын

Smart idea, Johnny! Those studs are around $30...for a pack of 250! Definitely worth a little effort. ;-) Tim www.troutandfeather.com

@bschu7392 Жыл бұрын

As Tim stated they are very affordable substitute for $$ wading specific studs. I've used them for a few years now and have had no issues with them piercing through the tread of my wading boots ( rubber soles ) I just made sure to put them on the higher tread spots. Being their only 1/2 inch long.

@nzadventurer Жыл бұрын

I have orvis Pro and have never needed studs. My tip - wash boots between waterways to avoid spreading pests. I have an orvis Pro Boot review coming out in next few weeks

Any tips on cold feet in wader boots?

@wilsoncaddis Жыл бұрын

Many thanks Tim...I have a couple tips for what I do with my boots.... Before trip I wet them in a sink.... easier to put on... Wet boots then in the car? No way.... I put them in a standard plastic paint tray in the trunk or back seat floor... this is slso a good way to transport back the mucky boots and I squirt in some detergent like Sunlight and rinse them out.. I repair worn spots with Gorilla glue and it is so good I have reglued soles and used for a couple seasons...I used to use Pliobond but it is a bit hard to find...Gorilla adhesive in the tube not the liquid glue in the little bottle (too fluid).... Tight lines & tight laces !

How do you keep metal studs from slipping on rocks when you put them in that rubber soled shoes would it be better to have felt shoes with studs? She

@TimCammisa 5 ай бұрын

Great question! For awhile, felt was frowned upon because it was said to help spread invasive species. I'm seeing more returning to felt because it is superior with wading shoes. For now, my current shoes have rubber with studs, and the studs I use grip onto rocks great. Thanks for checking! Tim www.troutandfeather.com

I appreciate the comment and am glad they worked for you. I've now used the Orvis Pro boots for two years and highly recommend them. I'll be releasing a Grundens video soon, unboxing their newest wading boots. Can't wait to see how they work! Thanks for taking a moment to comment. Tim www.troutandfeather.com

@alexargyros7186 6 ай бұрын

Sorry to pile on the questions, but I just watched the video again, and it wasn't clear how one laces the entire Orvis Pros with the Chota laces. You appear to prefer lacing them up to the upper speed laces. Is that how you do it? But, if you want to lace them all the way, do you lace the Chotas as if they were regular laces and then tighten them? Do the tighten up like that?

@pawoodsnwater7551 Жыл бұрын

Honestly, I and friends had just the opposite results with the new Orvis Pros, soles coming off two pair, the new rubber bottoms are like walking on ice even with studs. In my opinion, nothing is better than a felt soles with Orvis Posi Grip studs, Simms studs are worthless. I got the Simms featherlight in felt soles with the Posi Grip studs and I’ve never been more sure footed. Just my opinion

@TimCammisa Жыл бұрын

I appreciate you sharing your experiences. This summer, I wore these boots approximately 4 days per week, took them to Iceland, Vermont, and more...and loved them! Because I travel around the world, I prefer rubber soles versus felt (the latter can transfer invasive species and more). This video's intent was to share wading shoe hacks, thus I'll hold the Orvis Pro Wading Shoes Review until Summer 2023. Tim www.troutandfeather.com

@@TimCammisa I like my Korkers with the interchangeable soles. I used stud in my first set of boots, but the Korkers I replaced those with came with a set of felt soles. I've enjoyed those. I saw your comment about contamination and I was already going to mention before drying my boots, I give them a good rinse regardless of the soles. I think this cuts down on contamination and also helps with the life of the boot when you let them dry after cleaning as opposed to drying them dirty.

@tlalexander3 2 ай бұрын

Yep mine did the same within a year. And orvis customer service was worthless. I bought some Simms boots with the vibram sole and I love those. They feel like wearing my normal every day shoes especially when walking on the road to spots.
