Didn't take long for me to try the "bait"

And I got a shimano softsided tackle box (6 trays) to put my "Real Fishing Tackle Box" in.

Lots of food and family !

I got a leather recliner, All-Clad pans, socks and gloves. But the funniest was a little plastic submarine lookin thing that apparently attaches to your line and brings your bait/lure out as far as you want.

Christian beter not try that in MA there is no traping any more.:af: :af: :af: :rocketem:

Santa left "Striper Surf" and "Secrets of surf fishing at night". Also a nice mirror for the den with a fishing scene. That looks great next to the rod rack I got for Father's Day last June. Oh yea the kids had a ball too. The big hits for them were, jump rope and hula hoop for my 2+, and baby doll for my little one. Plus a ton more stuff.
Mom got some new kitchen gadgets that she's been asking for.

All in all, it was a great day.

MikeCC-
guess ill just have to stick to sling shots(i think illegal in mass too). it stinks that its illegal to trap, not hurting anything else but squirrels and using the skins for cat toys and tying flys. if they outlaw trapping why are mouse and rat traps legal? its not fair.

Got a Penn 8500 SS from the 'rents, a PS2 from the wife, and 3000 gallons of water in the cellar of the new house from mother nature. Aside from the mother nature gift and the hell trip from Waltham to Medway Christmas night, it was lots of fun.

Among other things, seven books about saltwater and striper fishing, some lures, and the 2003 Cape Cod Fisherwoman calendar, which is actually interesting reading, too, in addition to the pictures, and some of the proceeds go to a worthy cause.

If anyone that is going to both the Plug thingy or Blueberry thingy and then the reel thingy want to borrow Surfcaster's Quest, I'll bring it - first that responds :D
