I flooded my strikers last night (water went past my knees) any good tips on drying 'em out?

Don't use any artificial heat source, hair dryer, etc. Stuff them with newspaper and put them out in the sun (if it's still warm in your parts) and change out the newspaper every two or three hours. Takes awhile, but won't shrink your boots or damage the leather.

You probably don't want to spend the money but a lot of outdoor stores (hunting/ fishing type) sell a boot dryer you can plug in and the boots will be dry within 12-24 hours. I use them for my hunting boots and waders and they are awesome.
