Title: Re: all day canoe shoes.

I know I'm in the minority here, but I've come to love my simple Northerner Muck Boots.  They are a simple rubber boot with good traction and ankle support.  The boot really fits nice, is relatively comfortable and all I have to do to dry them out, its tip them over.  I'm usually one to say that you get what you pay for, but in this case, I've tried several differnt options and keep come back to these boots.  This particular pair is on its 6th trip and cost me less than $40.00.

I do have some camp shoes, to give my tired dogs a change of scenery, but all in all, I've found nothing better.  It took me about three trips of watching a friend of mine use this option while I tried expensive gortex stuff, blah, blah, blah...He never seemed to have a problem (except one year when he sprung a leak.  Easily fixed with duct tape). So one year I tried them and was hooked.

Good Luck
