I wore the rubber ones out or I should say they fell apart pretty quick. I replaced them with the BPS 1200 grain rubber, they're okay too.
Normally, I just use the 400 grain rubber boots for fishing. Wool socks are a big help.

Never had a pair of cornstalkers that were 1200 grain but the snowstalkers rubber boots have been great over the years. I really like the bearclaws.

I just looked at mine, you are correct the Cornstalkers are 1000 grain.(I'm over 60, my memory sucks). However, I pretty much gave up on Rocky boots. The last 2 pair I had didn't seem to hold up very well. I only hunt in rubber coated boots and the last pair may have made it 4 or 5 years. Since I only used them for hunting thats not much use.
I plan on trying the Lacrosse the next time.
Either way fishing isn't like hunting and being able to move around a bit helps keep the feet from freezing. Those little toe warmers are a big plus too.

When I'm bowhunting rubber boots are the ticket for scent control going to and from stand. Ice fishing and other cold water fishing trips I perfer snowstalkers or bearclaws for comfort and warmth, like you stated though being able to move around helps out when fishing vs the tree stand hunt when sometimes no boots work in late season
