    I like the felt bottom too, especially when I'm salmon fishing in the Norhern NY rivers... they're not illegal in NY, but they suggest that you don't use them... but as long as you dry the felts thoroughly after you fish with them, there's very little chance of transporting any "unwanteds" from one place to another... nice catch on the stripers btw!

    Nice man. I bought those same Frogg Toggs last year. Unfortunately they only lasted a season until they started leaking. Also that front pocket is not waterproof (i learned the hard way). Hopefully my new $50 Hodgeman boot foot hold up this season. Tight lines skinner!
