What's on your Holiday Fishing List?
 
Here is a chance to shout out with what you might like to see under the tree this year :love:

  • Going to chase down a few specific plugs, Jigman Spook, Tattoo Sea Dog, Big Fish Pencil, Hab's Jr and Afterhours Needles to name a few.
  • Bags of trebles to rehook a bunch off lures.
  • Perhaps another 10' rod
Who knows, if your better half were accidentally sent to this thread maybe you coulds, uhh, suggest what you want :love:

So what do you want for the Holidays?

Back Beach 12-09-2009 10:19 AM

Korker boots like the ones Redlite stepped on my hand with this summer...:gorez:

60# boga

2 yr subscription to the fisherman

Potato for my wetsuit

With the exception of the potato, I'll probably wind up having to buy all this stuff myself. My wife has no sympathy for my addiction. Its nice to wish though.

RIJIMMY 12-09-2009 10:27 AM

I can honestly say I dont need one thing for fishing this year. I have all the gear I need.

Bronko 12-09-2009 11:19 AM

I am pretty well set. Don't need much. Maybe a few gift certificates to the SWE. A few plugs here and there... I have everything I need.

BasicPatrick 12-09-2009 11:20 AM

Ford F-350, Diesel, 4WD, 8'Bed, Crew Cab to place under the camper...New is 50K so that is out...100k miles goes for about 20k and that is a strong maybe!!!!!

The Dad Fisherman 12-09-2009 11:43 AM

All Ice Fishing related on my X-mas list this year.....I'm all set with salt water for this coming season.

Crafty Angler 12-09-2009 11:43 AM

Tough one - Mrs Santa already got an early gift for me at Thanksgiving that I wanted - new waders...:love:

I had no idea I'd been so good this year...although I did finally make good on my promise to finish the house in time for the holidays...hell, it even surprised me...:shocked:

A new drytop is on my list, just have to figure out which one...VMC's to keep me busy the next coupla months in Uncle Crafty's Tackle Shack although they're a tricky stocking-stuffer

A new plug bag would be nice, my old Surfcaster bag is getting a little worn these days ...:doh:

Oh yeah - and several hard-to-come-by plugs in particular....no names, don't wanna start a run on 'em...:hihi:

Swimmer 12-09-2009 12:11 PM

I have an 11' SSU blank to wrap and I am getting an SSU 9'er for christmas. A few plugs/hooks and wait a minute my wife might read this.

Picked up the SSU108 1M today, so that my wife can give it to me on Christmas. Got all the accessories also, with the exception of a reel. I'll surprise myself on my birthday in January though with the reel.

redlite 12-09-2009 04:25 PM

2 rolls of 50# seagar and 100 5/0 Gami live bait hooks. All I need for a season.l

fishbones 12-09-2009 04:31 PM

New wading boots (Korkers with the interchangeable soles) and treble hooks. Other than that, I'm in good shape. I just need to get some reels serviced.

ThomCat 12-09-2009 04:38 PM

:grins: I'm askin' for a pound of $20's. I'll take care of the rest:jump1:

quick decision 12-09-2009 05:31 PM

I need to get my reels serviced and two rods fixed.

BigFish 12-09-2009 05:43 PM

:scratch: 30# Boga for the yak! Some inserts for my yak tackle box to hold oh so many more plugs! Hydro shoes for the yak.....for pedaling so I don't get any more blisters on my feet! Maybe some new Levi's!:uhuh:

numbskull 12-09-2009 06:15 PM

38-24-36" inflatable doll with sufficient orifices to hold my fishing rod, lip-gripper, and scale while I sit on her and paddle to a rock. Blond, would be best.

nightfighter 12-09-2009 06:16 PM

I need nothing. But planning to sell a few things (like a Shopsmith) to get a few things (like a midi-lathe). And a T-top for the boat is not a Christmas list item.....

Higgie 12-09-2009 06:27 PM

I asked santa for a Daiwa em pro 5500 and some waders but then santa reminded me were saving a wedding in 9 months

GattaFish 12-09-2009 06:44 PM

I just cant wait to get my MAK bags... and Pray he has whipped up the extra large two tube with a divider before I take my first dip in the spring,,,, :huh::huh:

Redsoxticket 12-09-2009 06:48 PM

My holiday wish would be to become a better surfcaster and you can find that under any tree. If there was one thing that I would value would be piemma's surf log. Merry Christmas Paul. :)

TheSpecialist 12-09-2009 07:55 PM

I'll be parting with more things than I need to get.

Important lesson - If you don't have or are not going to have kids right off the bat, save and hide one of the items now and you might be able to put off the other. If kids are current or imminent, you've got to get square now or you never will. Pick one and get it. The other may happen once formula and diapers are done.

Don't forget to order a couple hundred hook bonnets to protect her from the trebles.
Last thing we need is another artificial reef obstructing prime casting area.

Definitely 2nd that! Hm, a Darter, Nike Roman, Magna Strike (Damnit Tagger why did you have to make those sexy things!), and a productive wooden eel to use to fish and be templates. For the long term wish list a lathe with some extra space to put it!

All those are extra things though except the lathe, I am happy with what I have in the bag. Lets just fast forward to the fishing season...YOU HEAR ME GOD?! :biglaugh:

PaulS 12-10-2009 02:42 PM

Don't really need anything but the wife always comes up with a few fixters.

leptar 12-10-2009 04:09 PM

Cloak of Invisibility.

ThrowingTimber 12-10-2009 06:18 PM

MAY I got everything else :wall:

They now make for only 4 grand, a completely lifelike companion per your specs or favorite " actress ". Saw it on HBO the other day. I do believe they float, they are built to go in the shower to hold the soap.:shocked:

ivanputski 12-10-2009 11:02 PM

if your wife asks you what you want, tell her you want a few "coupons" that she can easily print up herself on the computer.. the coupon is an "I'm leaving right now to go fishing for 24 hours no questions asked, screw dinner plans with the jones', zero head ache when I get home" coupon... If she says thats ridiculous, then tell her NOT TO ASK YOU WHAT YOU WANT FOR CHRISTMAS!!! It's a real ace up your sleeve to be played at just the right times... If it doesnt work, print your own, leave it on the table, and go anyway
