Re: whirling desiese and felt soled boots.
I was going to say that it isn't all that widespread yet, but looks like that was outdated info:

Re: whirling desiese and felt soled boots.
The info is not dated; the research is cited Gates (2007). This is a new problem for Maryland. The news broke this season, and the contamination of the North Branch of the Potomac is due to poor hatchery management. The North Branch is one of our finest rivers, which many record fish have been taken. Nearby the rest of our trophy waters (Savage, Cassleman, etc) so far haven't been contaminated, but for how much longer?

Re: whirling desiese and felt soled boots.
Jeebus guys, what I meant was my impression that WD wasn't all that widespread yet was based on outdated info. What I posted reflects the current situation.
Oh and lugged boots are great, until you float your hat and put all the critters from inside your mouth and nose into the river and vice versa. (teehee) On a serious note, I think the new boots out that are a combo of super sticky rubber and studs are likely a good way to go.

Re: whirling desiese and felt soled boots.
I was lucky enough to get my license before the price doubled.(Which is a real kick in the behind)
I don't have to worry about spreading whirling disease, as I don't use waders.
