I have a pair of camucks from Steger mucklucks, love them. My feet never get hot or sweaty but never get cold either. Nice to have warm feet but not hot. Wear them ice fishing a ton and for being in the woods they are quite as can be.

I've had a pair for 2 years also and love them. I use them ice fishing and deer hunting also. I would definitely get them again. I got mine new on hsolist from a reputable footwear seller and saved about $50 off retail.

I've tried a lot of other insulated knee boots and all have cracked at the bend point within a year. Pac boots are too bulky.

One thing Ive found out over the years that kind of surprised me at first is how boots are rated. I couldn't figure out how my feet would get cold even when my boots were rated for well -0. The ratings are active. Heck a guy could wear some pretty low insulated boots in cold weather if stomping around for grouse vs sitting still in a deer stand. That's two entirely different worlds😊

I don't know if they have changed but the one complaint I've heard is the lack of the little tab on the back of the heel making them a little tougher to get off. I just roll the top down half way. Before taking them off. Plus that way u can use them around deer camp, off and on in a snap

Enjoy the boots

I have a pair of lacrosse alphaburly 1600gram boots. I have a few friends who have mucks and swear by them. I will say I think the mucks are more comfortable but haven't had the opportunity to wear them for more than a minute. I hate the weight of my lacrosse's, but am wondering if the mucks are as warm as the 1600grams of thinsulate in the lacrosse boots?

I love my Arctic Pro, light,water proof and warm. Also easy on and off. The biggest thing is to buy the right size boot and wear the right type of sock. I wear a size 11 shoe so I got a 12 in the Mucks because I use heavy weight Wool whisking socks. My feet stay dry and warm. I have been using these for 2 years without any problems. Before that I had the Lacrosse Iceman. They where warm but heavy.

To be fair, the ones BigDave was pricing at Gander were the Mossy Oak colored boots which are typically $30 more than the standard brown, which are around $165 at Gander.

About $135 with free shipping on evil bay is the best price I have seen for the brown ones. The best price for mossy oak I have seen is about $180.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
