Fish Monkey took the sock market by storm a few years ago when they introduced a complete line of merino wool socks which were not only made in the United States at one of the nation’s oldest and most respected mills, but also designed for fishing, hunting and the outdoors and packed with features. We asked two top pros for their thoughts on the Fish Monkey merino wool socks, and here’s what they had to say.

First up is North Carolina guide Capt. Noah Lynk, who runs a very busy guide service targeting all kinds of inshore and nearshore species all year long and in just about every kind of weather imaginable, from 90-plus degree heat to snow squalls in the winter.

“Fish Monkey socks are not by any means your ordinary sock from Walmart,” he says. “These socks are made with cushioned foot beds, great arch support and compression fit like no other so you stay comfortable all day on the water in warm to ice-cold environments. Having the ability to go all day without my feet getting tired or sore is a huge deal. Once again these socks are another part of my arsenal that allows me to be out there on the water and in the elements five to seven days a week, in the rain, wind, heat, cold—it doesn't matter, I know that I'm going to be fine.”

Next is Brian “Bro” Brosdahl from Max, Minnesota. Bro is one of the most well-respected guides in the Midwest, and while he fishes year-round with his clients for bass, walleye and panfish, his specialty is ice fishing.

“I wear Fish Monkey socks everyday on the open water and the ice season,” he says. “They keep my feet dry plus they have a comfortable footbed with arch compression to keep me energized and less fatigued. They also have a premium cushioning in the heel and toe areas that keeps me in the game when I am hunting trophy walleye, bass and crappie in the heat of summer. I spoil my feet in the winter with my Fish Monkey Heavyweight merino wool socks—it’s the warmest sock I have ever worn, and they’re built to last. I just can’t wear them out!”
