Oysters.
Oysters.
Never wear sandals while fishing an oyster bar... I was doing that exact thing and slipped out of my sandal and cut my foot then fell onto my hand then cut that up too... not fun fishing with a bloody hand. My leason was learned trust me.. luckly I wasnt cut up too bad, but I might have some kind of poison in my hand from it.. Wellll... again never wear flipflops on oysters, very bad idea..

Wade boots are the way to go. Shimano and Calcutta make decent ones. Fishin' Frank's in Port Charlotte has a box of older ones for sale right now.
If you can find them, the older G. Loomis ones are the way to go. Their white/biege so they don't get as hot, have a sole that is over 1" thick and has ankle reinforcement. The neoprene is nice and thick, the side zippers are large and plastic and they have velcro at the top to crank them tight if you need to. I love mine.

Definitely!LivelyBaits wrote:I like to suggest that people get a footwear that covers their ankles as well. The less exposed skin the less that can get cut up. With sandals, it's only a matter of time before you get some serious cuts on your feet and legs.
Also, boots that go up higher will keep sand and shells out of the shoes.
Just $25 and these do the job on oysters too.
