In this video Ryan Ratliff at Mad River Outfitters breaks down Felt Sole wading boots, Rubber Sole wading boots and adding studs to your boots.
Felt soles can increase the spread of invasive species from one waterway to another. To prevent this, thoroughly clean and dry your felt soles after use.

Felt boots are VERY slippery on ceramic tiles apparently... Sounds like something a secret carpenter would say. Thanks for watching! What are your thoughts?!

@michaeldavis4746 4 года назад

We all know that cleated soles are extremely dangerous to walk on ceramic tiled floors. Never do that!

@willgrant719 3 года назад

I use studded felt for out in the Pacific ocean while surf fishing. It’s the best combination of grip on slippery rock and being able to cut through seaweed to get to the rock for better traction

@Madriveroutfitters 3 года назад

Agreed! Thanks for watching.

Which one did you end up buying? I’m also a beginner and doing research. One thing I commonly found was that most of all Waders and boots have a bad review or reputation. I hope you can point me in the right direction 🙏

@bippie23456 4 года назад

All the hype about felt soles alone being responsible for transferring invasive aquatic organisms is a bunch of hooey! Rubber soled wading shoes have laces, padded ankle support, material uppers, and the entire inside material all of which is porous! Not to mention neoprene and breathable wader material! Unless the entire system is non-porous rubber, banning felt soles is absurd!

@Madriveroutfitters 4 года назад

As you have seen, we pretty much agree.

So I’m fishing up in north Carolina up in Cherokee in around late match so I’m wondering if I need felt bottom or rubber bottom because we just bought rubber souled bottoms and are being told we need felt. Is this a need though?

I never heard that about felt, that it can spread organisms. I would think that any wet neoprene or boot uppers would do the same thing.

@Madriveroutfitters 4 года назад

Dasdfjkl Exactly. It’s a conspiracy against felt.

Seeing how these look like any other pair of boots out there - except, perhaps, the outer studs -, can one use any pair of hiking boots as wading boots? Or hiking shoes/sandals?

@jginmt 2 года назад

I live just north of Yellowstone. I just bought some boots and felt was discouraged. They encourage washing boats, rafts, and boots to stop evasive species.

@Madriveroutfitters 2 года назад

Invasive species can be carried on almost anything. If a concern, you should wash everything. Felt is in fact not allowed in Yellowstone but we use it everywhere else in Montana.

@jginmt 2 года назад

@@Madriveroutfitters I agree. I am glad that from the fishing shops and everywhere people are promoting washing everything. Case in point they have no idea what grass is starting to grow in the Gallatin.
