I don't wanna hijack this thread but is there anyone around the Canal that carries Korkers? I want to fit them to my boots and get a good look before I buy. Seems like most people like them and I have a bad tendency of falling off rocks

They are sized in inches, so you should be able to get a perfect fit without looking...unless you just want to check them out. Call Joe Lyons, his shipping is etremely fast in the area...

I don't see too many guys using korkers at the canal. I don't use mine at the canal.

I bought a pair from Joe Lyons last year. The best money I spent all year. When you are on the thick rock weed you just have to brush it away so you can get down to the rock. I have not slipped yet..

I just bout always wear em at the canal unless the tide is up there pretty good and its just for a little while. I have the 1000's and they work great, after 6 hours it sure feels good to take em off though. I got 2 pairs on ebay brand new 25 bucks, lightley used 15. I lost my last keepr of the year in Ct because i didnt wear them and slipped on the rocks while reaching for my fish I second the advice to call joe, i got my studs and tool in 2 days, bout crapped when ups dude showed up.

Everything is better on the rocks.
