if you bring the handbag youre okay

Captainhookem, good question, I have not seen the latest fishing fashion trends from Paris yet, however last year the White Lacrosse Boots were in, you just couldn't wear the Morton Salt Boy So'easter hat with them. Another question, I have Grundens in White, Green, and Orange. Have you heard anything on any newer, flashier colors coming out? Also, do you think the Helly Hanson Yellows will ever come back in fashion or should I just heave them?

 

[Capthookem]

I think the yellow Helly Hansens are still acceptable while inshore fishing. I wear the orange Grundens in the summer and the green after Labor Day. I'm Still not sure about the boot thing though. I wore my white boots the other day and I could sense guys snickering at them as I walked by with my chum...I felt so violated.

Hey Capt Hookem-

Do you actually live on the Flemish Cap -ie houseboat-or is that where you go for designer gear? LOL

 

[Capthookem]

lkylindy,
Living at the Flemish cap is a state of mind thing..I have also lived in Kona, Queensland Australia, Durban South Africa, Islmorada, Cabo San Lucas, Walkers Cay and for a short time on Mars,

CH: I think you can wear the white boots, but not with the orange grundens...that combo will make your bass look big.

Black goes with everythig

I stick with my simple black Lacrosse boots to match my black vest and get complements from all the babes and surf rats...

 

[Capthookem]

On a more serious note....Does anyone know of a good fishing boot that actually keeps your feet warm?? I have three pairs of red ball and lacrosse boots, and while they are good for the summer, they stink when it is cold. I would rather not spend $200.00 from cabellas for something that is good to 600 degrees below zero.

KAMIK Brand Boots

Purchased a pair at my local tackle store in Brooklyn.

Very warm boots, nice boot liner and work well on a slippery deck.
About $40
Rated for -40 degree weather.
Made in Canada,
they have some first hand experience with cold weather up there.

 

[MakoMatt]

HungryJack, was it $40 for the one boot or both, and do you have a picture of the one for the right foot too?

 

[HungryJack]

Mako Matt your other right !

If you look at the picture, it is the Right Foot.

Price is for the pair
2 right boots or
2 left boots or
1 right and 1 left.
choice is yours.

 

[MakoMatt]

HungryJack, LOL, whoops, I slipped on that one, anyway, for $40 bucks I think I will give them a shot. My feet were freezing yesterday.

Thanks,
Matt

 

[Capthookem]

HungryJack,
Thanks, I will look for a pair of those. You can't go wrong for $40.00

Do these have non-marking soles?

 

[sportsman625]

I've been using these boots for years they are great. The soles are non marking they have a steel shank for arch support. Get an extra pair of liners so if you fish a couple of days in a row you can switch the liners so they are always dry. Lou
