Location: Tennessee | I've been using a pair of Irish Setter for years and years which are pretty rough at this point. I want something good for around 0-40 degrees and will keep me warm for a full day out on the boat. I prefer a mid-height boot and so far I'm looking at Muck brand but I have no experience with them. Thoughts/recommendations? |

Location: Wisconsin | Have two different pairs. I really like my Arctic Sports for cold weather fishing. Feet always stay warm and dry. Easy on and off is one of the main reasons I bought mine. Comfortable too. Tom |

| Warmth or do you need mobility too???
For warmth state of the art ice fishing pack boots can't be beat, lacrosse iceman. Ice kings, or whatever is their current top model, I haven't kept up because I'm still using a pair of ice men from 1991 and they work great here in much colder minnesota.
Their a little bulky for long hikes though say for bird hunting or all day walking.
If you really want to be dry and warm too find yourself a pair of cheap or worn out neoprene chest waders on craigslist or garage sale and cut the feet or boots off and use them for rain bibs,warm and completely dry all day. |

Location: Tennessee | Mobility isn't too big of a deal, I'll rarely be out of a boat in winter to move around much |

| I have used a muck style boot for 2 years with 800g of thinsulate. Love them. Not too heavy like pack boots, waterproof so when they pulll the docks in the fall my feet don't get wet when I beach the boat. For an all around fishing boot, hard to beat. |
