I just bought a tube and the last time I went out I was wearing my neoprenes and just a pair of shoes and it fit nice and snug into the browning fins.After about 20 minutes though my feet began to cramp up severely. I dealt with it for another 1/2 hour till I could no longer take it and went back in. When I got out of the water they didnt seem to hurt as much. Is this just the pressure of the water or what?
It took about a half hour of just standing there fishing off of shore till I was ready to get back in. This time without the shoes. I had determined that the flippers would stay on as long as I didnt put to much force into moving through the water. I still had my waders on at this point and it was like 90 degrees outside.[crazy]Talk about hot and sweaty. What a joke.
My question is this. Its too hot for waders and the water is great. I dont want to wear waders. I'd rather just wear shorts. The problem is that if im not wearing the waders the chances that my fins will stay on are slim to none. Those fins are a pain in the but to adjust and I really dont want to anyhow till winter or when the water cools down, Guess i'll need to then. I need something that I can wear on my feet that is enough to keep my fins on snug without cramping up my feet.
I dont know if this explains my dilemma but maybe someone in here can help me with this.
