Hey thanks guys! I hadn't had a lot of time to get back here to read your answers. I wish I had remembered to read them before I went out looking for more mud spots last weekend. An almost total bust by the way

The spot I had in mind only was about knee deep at the most.
Mudfun ... The socks thing I've tried and it works pretty well, it doesn't get everything but it certainly helps!
Jadokast.. I'll try using that tool as I've seen that thing on my clippers a hundred times and never tried it (duh to me).
Duncan... Thanks but having crud stuck under there for a month or longer just doesn't quite cut it with me, sorry.
Nacht ... that's an interesting trick! I'm certainly going to try that one the next time!
I'm going to have to try all of these to see which one works the best for me, (or maybe a combination of them)
