Studded rubber.
Only because those creeks aren't that slippery and studded felt isn't very good for walking down muddy banks and trails or snow and ice.
Thanks for the replies. I see that there are 2 studded rubber soles, would the "cleated ones be the best choice or just the regular studded sloes? Thanks. GG
They have a sole called "icetrac" . That would be good choice because of the deep tread design which is good for mud and snow.
Or the studded kling on sole. That's the one I have.
The one with the aluminum bars would be OK for the Salmon River but not really needed in Erie.
I got the Whitehorse ones. The fit is great and the boa system will be good for getting them on and off. I guess he felt soles should do in Penn Creek.
I checked those Klingon soles and they look like they would work in Erie and NY with the mud and shale rock. GG
