KorkersTraction Cleat

My husband and sons like to go fish on the gulf jettys, and the algae out there is so slippery and dangerous. One of their favorite YouTubers was rocking these, and they are a game changer! Like snow tires but strap right onto your shoes. IMO, they are a little pricey for 'fishing gear' but not compared to an ER trip for a slip/fall. They work just as described, AND they have a wide range of sizes.

I purchased these to use while fishing on jetties. I have only used once so far. They fit perfectly on my boats and were easy to setup. The only time I used them far I kind of felt less stable than in my boats without them, but I didn't fall or slip. I guess I just have to get used to the feeling of wearing them.

Now that I am a "Senior Citizen" I am more cautious with my outdoor activities. I purchased these cleats and have so far used them once. I returned to a river where I had previously fished using felt soled fishing shoes. These overshoes with cleats gave me much greater traction and stability. I wear a size 13 and used the X-Large over my felted fishing shoes. Looking forward to many more years on the water with greater confidence.

Great product but they are heavy to wear especially with wading boots. Cost is high but I would buy again given how reliable and sturdy they are.recommended....

I received these yesterday and put them to the acid test today. I just waded over two miles of the slipperiest mountain stream I fish here in Montana. Two weeks ago I fished the same stream with my felt waders and there is just no comparison!!!! I never once lost my footing today and relied on my wading stick very seldom. I have to say, this way money well spent. Yes, they do add some weight but I'll pack the extra for the performance they provide. I wish I had looked into these years ago. What I also like about them, I can throw them in my drift boat and only put them on when I need them. Cleats don't do the bottom of a fiberglass boat any favors. Great product.

Used in Salmon River, NY. Definately worth buying these. They not only stayed on my boots, I never slipped over any rocks. In fact, I could just about run through the river with them (although I wouldn't advise running through a river). Never lost a cleat the entire 3 days I was there.

I’ve used Korkers over boots for nearly 35 years. The older over boot versions that had the screw in replaceable spike were great, maybe lost a few spikes a year. This new version I was hoping for the same but unfortunately on my first trip out 7 spikes came out on the left and 9 came out on the right. I am fishing some faster current water and not just a rocky shore but that’s always been the case.

Although big and clunky looking these enabled my 73 year old body to wade with confidence in the E Walker River and Lower Owens in Eastern Sierra - both streams had been problematic for me previously (meaning dunked). Had size 12 Korkers "sticky sole" that caused me to be dunked this summer on the Deschutes and the large fit OK. Good safety but aesthetically not pleasing. I walked more than 5 miles in them over 3 days along the CA rivers and did feel the extra weight but that was less weight than a set of wet clothing. Happy I bought them. PS I also use a wading staff before and after I bought them and after it just made me a bit more steady on moss covered boulder stream bottom - the cleats really do grab those rocks.
