VT outdoorsman,
I bought a pair of snake boots from BASS-PRO last year and I am very happy with them. I live in the Champlain Islands, hunt Vermont, NH and Maine for deer and turkey with them. Very lightweight, water proof and warm enough if you are on the move. Best feature is that they zip up so easy on easy off. About $100 right now, I believe I got them on sale for $85 spring of '06. These are warmer than rubber boots, yet cool enough for spring turkey.
