Ice fishing boots
#8
You've got great suggestions in this thread. I'll add just one more. The main thing you want to look for is waterproof. Insulation definitely helps as well. My first year of ice fishing was rough on my feet since I had not invested a lot into gear. My feet were cold and damp every trip. The next year I had stepped it up with some boots that I paid about 40 bucks for. They were insulated but not waterproof if you stepped in snow deeper than 4 or 5 inches. I see lots of mickey mouse boots, sorels, and muck boots on the ice. Since I hunt as well, I opted to go with some Danners from Cabelas. They are waterproof and have some excellent insulation as well. My feet stay warm all day. Also if the boots you pick up don't have a "grippy" tread, you may want to look at getting some ice cleats that will fit on your boots. There are plenty to choose from out there and most will work just fine. They are a must when walking out on snow-free ice that is slicker than snot!
