Feet Forward: Kayak Fishing Shoes for Adults and Kids

Tired of stubbing your toes, slipping on rocks and getting cold feet (literally) while out kayak fishing? Then maybe you need to upgrade to a new pair of kayak fishing shoes.

I know I’ve kept water shoes past their prime. They were just so darn comfortable. But it’s time to move on, feet forward into finding the best kayak fishing shoes.

Alas, the outdoor and water lifestyle has its setbacks. Kayaking gear and apparel like water shoes eventually succumb to the elements of saltwater, sun and rocky surfaces no matter how well made they are. It’s necessary to invest in a new pair every so often (especially if you use them a lot).

You’ll probably want to pick up a new pair before your next kayak fishing trip comes around. But if you don’t currently have a favorite water shoe, read on to check out some of my recommendations for comfort, stability and warmth on the water. Also, I recommend that you should opt for the boat rental services in Madeira Beach, FL to rent a kayak. 

Why Wear Kayak Fishing Shoes?

Kayak fishing shoes are designed to provide safety, comfort and warmth for water and on the land. I don’t know about you, but dragging a kayak to the shoreline in bare feet—across gravel, hot pavement, burning sand or sandbur-infested grass— is not my idea of a good time.

Safety

Traction and stability are important when you’re out on the water. Who knows when you might have to step out of the kayak onto rocks or other slippery surfaces? You also don’t want to go getting hooks in your feet.

Comfort

Kayak fishing shoes allow water to drain away. This keeps them light and your feet don’t get that waterlogged feeling. Many kayak fishing shoes are made out of neoprene, like wetsuits but lighter, that conforms nicely to your feet.

Warmth

Summer isn’t such a big deal; you could get by with your bare feet if you wanted.

Cold water kayaking, however, is a different story. Your whole day will be much more comfortable (and you’ll be able to stay out longer) if your feet are warm and cozy.

What NOT to Wear While Kayak Fishing

I could go on and on about what not to wear on the water (don’t worry, I won’t). However, here are just a couple of footwear faux pas to avoid while out in your kayak.

Flip flops — Really, do flip flops ever stay on your feet? Can you say fish hook?

Strappy leather sandals — While cute and fashionable, the leather is going to get waterlogged. Thin straps are not comfortable when wet. And again with the hook in the foot.

Sneakers — Maybe fine if you never step in the water, but how often does that ever happen?

Features of the Best Kayak Fishing Shoes

Fabric — You’ll want to look for a lightweight and breathable fabric that’s sturdy and waterproof. Think of things like neoprene, rubber soles and mesh inserts for drainage and airflow.

Bungee Cord Laces — This looks like what it sounds like. That same type of cord you use to tie down your kayak on the roof of your car makes a great set of laces. No tying required!

Toggle Cinch — A toggle cinch is that little piece of plastic that’s attached to the laces. You squeeze it together to make the fit tighter or looser. Toggle cinches give a quick and adjustable fit without having to rely on tying laces.

Drain Holes — You’ll want lots of drainage. Find something with small drain holes along the sides or on the bottom of the shoe. Mesh inserts deserve an award when it comes to fishing kayak shoe construction.

Non-marking Outsoles — Boaters know to never step foot on a boat with dark soles. You’ll want to make sure the shoes won’t scuff up your kayak. This is also a great feature for multi-use purposes if you also plan to use them on a power boat or sailboat.

Traction — Extra grippy bottoms are a necessity. You’ll stay secure and upright while walking on slippery docks and rocks.

Quick-dry — Nobody wants to spend the day with wet feet, especially when you’re still wearing the shoe. Neoprene and mesh dry quickly, which allows you to stay out longer.

Closed-toe Construction — Keep your tootsies safe with closed-toe kayak fishing shoes. You could get away with open-toe styles if you’re just out paddling around in warm weather, but if you’re fishing, I highly recommend closed toes. You remember how we talked about hooks earlier, right?

One thing - I really want to go iceskating suddenly Thing two - ncis LA really is full of nonsense So firstly. Hetty’s incredibly awful welsh (and or my godawful translating skills) Also. I understand now how Callen couldn’t look up his actual birth record. But he could, I am very sure, still look up his own foster care records. He knows every detail, as far as I am aware, apart from his first name. Dude. Get Eric to do it, Eric could do it in 3 seconds flat Also they always shoot people an kill them, like dude, surely there is some room sometimes to shoot someone. In the leg so they can’t leg it? Or in the arm so they drop their gun? Sometimes? Idk. Maybe try not to shoot dead the folks who have all the important info? Also they always have. The Fanciest cars. Every week. In which nearly every one, they get shot at, or the windscreen broke, or they crash, or in some other way the really fancy car is destroyed. That. That costs a fuckin lot of money. Buy cheap fast cars? Are there cheap fast cars? There must be. If in this TV programme they can find people via CCTV of a whole city in about a minute, then they can bloody well save money and find cheap fast cars. And, anyway, they’re chasing fucks in big vans or cheap shit cars usually anyway. So what the fuck. Oh, no, sometimes motorbikes. Anyway And there are so fuckin many ads! Fuck! For Bing, so much, and for them fancy tablet keyboards you get, and very carefully not for cola, and how amazing whichever car is, and if there is no actual product placement in evidence, then there is some throwaway dialogue what tells you how awesome the product is And also the latest one I saw, involved two of the main guys going undercover in a a uh food truck? burger van? and nearly always actually in films with food trucks or RVs in them. Well they had to Go Fast round some corners, and all the stuff fell out the overhead shelves or whatever. Like. Do bungee cords not exist any longer? To tie the cupboard doors shut? Or just a little toggle thing like we had in our kitchen. So that you don’t, in this case, get sauce bottles and cardboard trays flying past your yes-im-a-very-serious-government-agent head

Absolute nonsense.
