Mike .I hunt in central Florida and I wear those La Crosse boots. They are great for the wet lands we have here..I'm on my 3rd year and they still don't leak.Cost about 59.00

If all goes well I may be hunting north Florida as well...since they have many diamond backs..I will probably invest in a quality pair of snake boots from Cabelas..about 200.00 I say quality because I bought some 70.00 snake boots..lasted about 2 months.

These are the good Snake Boots sold by "Red Wing".....

Chippewa Green Boots Including Snake Boots

I have a pair of ROcky snake boots that i have worn for years. The soles are more like a tennis shoe than boot whick makes them more comfortable. I used to wear rubber boots but these seem more comforatable plus they are safer and keep the water out. It is also nice to keep your pants tucked in. I havent seen as many snakes since bought them asI did before I got them which is reason enough for me to keep wearing them. I think that snakes being cold blooded are out sunning themselves more in the winter than summer.

Thanks Reb..I'm going to check those out if my north FLorida hunt pans out.

Very True!, but if you ever hunt Avon Park WMA, Winter or Summer, wear Snake Boots..

I would at least during bow season. I have killed a poisonous snake the last two weekends I have been in the woods. I have a pair of snakeproof rubber boots I bought from cabelas that I prefer.

the reason i asked this is because i dont have any and i was going to ask for them at christmas from my parents.

I have a "cheap" pair from Bass Pro that I bought for about 70-80 bucks. I have worn them for the last couple of yoears with no problems. I don't wear them always, but if out by my self, I do. They give me a level of security and comfort when trampling through the brush.
