I used to use corkers all the time until I got felt sole waders. They provide plenty of traction, unless you are on bubble weed. Most of the rocks I fish are just moss covered or dry, and I don't feel the corkers provide much added protection. I do keep a good set of gladiator korkers in the vehicle at all times just in case, but they seem to get less and less use as I become more comfortable with the felts. Biggest reason behind my declining corker use is that I used to trip and fall/stumble in them too often for my liking. Had many more hazardous situations with them than without. Don't take my word as gospel, though. Use your common sense and most importantly,do what works best for your situation.
