<p>Aflytyer: </p> <hr /> <div>How many times have you got to the stream put your waders on then your wading <br /> shoes and they were as stiff as an old board? You laced them up and started <br /> fishing, 15 minutes later your foot was sliding around in your shoe because <br /> they had soften up from being in the water, now you have to go stream side and<br /> tighten them up.Why not try this, I keep my wading shoes in a Rubbermaid dish <br /> washing basin going to and from the stream, it keeps the vehicle fairly clean, <br /> well about an hour or so before I leave to go fishin’ I take the water hose and <br /> really wet the shoes down. I let them sit in the water till I go, when I get to <br /> the stream and put on the wading shoes that are soft and lace up real neat and <br /> away I go not having to take the time away from fishin’ to retie them.<br /> <br /> I will try to keep adding my Tips to this page as the days go by and hope that some of them will be of help to you all.</div>
