I do have several WallyWorld gift cards.To bad they don't sell much useful stuff.I wouldn't mind getting another Spheros as a secondary reel for my new Lami but they don't carry'em.Oh well I guess I could always buy several dozen Bombers as that's the only decent plug I've ever seen at the local WallyWorld:rolleyes: .

Santa got me:
a 4lb Lee melter and assorted jig making supplies,
abu BG 7000 HS & a 10' Tica 2pc fast 2/8 oz. rod ,for the Ditch & Surf when the boat can't go out,
a book with assorted fishing stories,

I'm very lucky I have a family that puts up with my addiction to fishing and boating!!!!!!!!!!!!!
