Have never done it but I would use a set of scuba fins .. I would want the most power with the least amount of effort. and all the power I need if I got in Trouble
rip or tide going the wrong way ( out to sea)

Fins + wetsuit = Mega tasty seal profile
We all know how important profile is when presenting bait to fish...

Why would you wear boots? Most just wear dive booties no wading boots

NRS workboot and force fins.
Walking in wetsuit booties is brutal on you feet.

I'm looking for something to be able to switch boots/fins, or maybe keep a pair of fins over my back for a hairy situation (been there). Tall order I know... |

I would think boogie boarding fins would be the most effective. they're much shorter than scuba fins making walking in and out of the surf much easier. Had a pair of churchill fins when I was younger they were pissah. Don't skish but just my 2 cents

something clever and related to fishing

You don't have to skish to have something big swim between you and a friend and grab your eel bag. Might be the reason I don't use eel bags anymore.
