rocks = stocking foot
sand = boot foot

stocking foot is nice but if you plan on walking any distances in sand you'll gain about two extra pounds of sand.
In my opinion, stocking foot waders with a good pair of boots are a must when rock hopping. You want the extra ankle support and no movement of your feet within the boot. You want the best control possible when marching on boulders and perching on rocks.

Breathables are the ticket, you can always layer up when it gets colder. There are many options to choose from, it all depends on what you want to spend.
