I really like my fleece socks, usually don't go winter fishing without them, except this morning. While loading gear in my truck I must have dropped them, got to the river and all I had was the pair of cotton socks I was wearing, my feet froze for the first couple hours until I got that shot of adrenaline that comes from fighting a 10-12 lbs. nate, best foot warmer money can't buy. Sure enough, socks were sitting in the driveway when I got home.
