Watch your step!!!

I used heavy duty leather boots, in the past for summer fun.
Forget any thing soft.
In winter water proof and insulated.
No snakes during winter.

Last year I came across two monster diamond backs. I am not sure if my boots were enough protection.

Fabian, I picked these up on Amazon after the last NWTF meeting. Too many guys having close calls.

I thinking buying three pairs for the family here at home. I am expecting rat explosion and a rattle snake to follow.

I use the Rattler Brand snake gaiters....I've worn them for years and they're still in good shape.

I've been hit once while fishing Lake Wohlford….It was a little guy and the hit was on my boot....If I'd been wearing maybe flip flops or tennis shoes....The outcome might have been different.

I check them out on line.
I think I will get a pair and let my son try them. I feel comfortable and secure with the ones I have but I will get a pair for my son and keep the other set as back up.

Lee, try sticking something at the end of the belt. I already lost a plastic clip.

Snakes are out. I hike up a hill in Sabre Springs on my lunch break. Last week, I saw a big king snake. Today this guy was out.

This guy was on the trail back in November.

That's a whole lot of NOPE! Not a fan. That is a mobile belt and soup.
