I have had many pairs of Sorel boots.  They are light, keep your feet warm, but when it comes to standing in slush every pair I owned leaked.  And no it wasn't sweat.  Bought me a pair of Lacrosse Alpha Burley 1200's. Haven't needed them yet this year, but from what I am hearing, the next time out I will be trying them out.  I will be using them only in wet conditions. 
Fisherman's Prayer
   I pray that I may live to fish
          Until my dying day.
And when it comes to my last cast,
       I then most humbly pray:
When in the Lord's great landing net
           And peacefully asleep,
      That in His mercy I be Judged
              BIG ENOUGH TO KEEP.

Don't mean to sound dumb but I have to know which Muck boot you guys are talking about?  I bought a pair of Arctic Sport last year.  I agree 100% on the waterproof,  but my feet FREEZE in those things.  I got them more for the dry factor but My feet get cold with them even when it is mildly cold.  Is it me or is there another Arctic model that would be warmer? Good luck and stay safe.

Muck boots are the most waterproof boots I have ever owned. The tall ones go almost to your knee and as long as the water does not go over the top you are dry. I have had pac boots that where as warm or warmer but they usually leak at the seams after a few years . Also if you walk a lot the light weight and extreme comfort are a big plus.
