im into fishing..wading in rivers etc spent half my life in muddy fields
and walking in streams.
Full gortex boots are overated and overpriced,if you want a good
compromise that will last, you need a rubber bottom with maybe
a waterproof material upper.
chub boots and the likes of are ideal..warm waterproof and easy to
walk in for the more dainty amongst you..best of all relatively cheap
at around £40
Goretex walking boots aren't over rated. For walking in moderately wet conditions they are prefect. For standing around in wet and mud, Wellington type boots are the best. For winter work, I have found these the best:

chub boots matey have a shoe part like a wellington but better
quality and the soles are better aswell and dont wear as quick
Dont get me wrong i use wellingtons aswell muckboots are good
and ive had a pair of skee-tek for nearly ten yers but can be a bugger
to walk any distance.
Chub boots are a good reliable relatively light boot and ive walked
miles in them through streams and drenched fields,perfect for standing
around wfping in the rain for the more dainty amongst us
