What brand are those roll up type waders, that the Hunting Public uses to cross creeks etc ? Anyone use these for creek / stream crossing... they look like a large pullover sock of some waterproof material ...

I have used and still use a pair of Chota Hippies wader.  They make knee highs and like the old style waders.  I still use mine as needed.

I have Chota Hippis too but they have stocking feet.  Not the best for sharp rocks or branches.  For incidental water crossings I prefer contractor weight garbage bags.  Light weight and cheap plus I can use them to clean up the woods on my way back to the truck.

Wiggy's. They work great for me.

Big tip guys ...roll those waders up super tight and put a rock on top of them ..if you lay them down to leave , and come back and use them to cross a creek back again , damn water moccasin crawled up the wader leg to stay warm ,  in a buddies warm waders ...he had a huge surprise when he tried to put them back on again

Snakes are always an Creek banks .. :o

They got some super cheap ones on eBay that I use all the time good for crossing creeks etc ..cheaper is better , unless your breaking ice to kill fat mallards

Alright.  New product time.  Old Gobbler Snake Waders.  Snake proof outers with snake repellent on the inside.  We can use the profits to buy more calls.
