Awhile back, I remarked that I was having a heck of a time with a pair of Simms G4 Guide Boots. They never did feel right and caused a lot of aggravation to the outer ankle bone. More than once I was hobbling back some distance to the rig. Because of the excellent customer service at The Caddis Fly Shop in Eugene, Oregon, and Lou Verdugo, I made a trade of sorts for a new pair of Simms boots, the Guide Boot. Wow…what a relief. I ache enough with other maladies, so no pain in the feet is wonderful. (Best wishes to Lou!)

Fly Fishing: ‘Oh what a relief it is……….’


Well, Bob, as many things are in FFing, they were an expense that I find reasonable. I advocate, if you can, that you try on gear rather than order on line. Some have no trouble with this and just return the item, but it is worth the drive and time to try on gear.
