Dan- check this to make sure it doesn't violate the buy/sell/trade prohibition

I would like to trade a beer or two at the next mutually convenient beer tie for a handful of the ice screws.
I am gonna try to make March.

Last year, I took my wife steelheading a number of times on Lake Erie tribs and hacked together some wading boots for her based on old hiking boots. Being oversized they fit the wader booties and a number of pairs of socks well. The height was also good as it is easy to roll your ankle wading. For studs, necessary for the shale on those rivers, I used carbide ice-screws, which are pretty cheap (http://www.koldkutter.com/catalog/index.php ). The other key was to drill holes in the boots so that they could drain for this I matched the pattern on my wading boots. If you're interested I went a little nuts (no pun intended) and bought a 250 pack of the ice screws -- I'd be happy to share if you need some.Good luck,Andrew

Thought about getting a cheap pair of hiking boots and having at it. I talked with a few people who mentioned slipping being a problem... and came up with the idea to throw these on the bottom. Has anyone tried this? Success stories/ warnings?
