The nicest, most mellow Christmas with family and friends ever.

Sounds like Santa was good to everyone this year. I got a new Diawa Emblem to go on a pole I'm wrapping this winter for the ditch, a bunch of salty's kits, and air compressor and air brush, new headlamp, some power pro, and a garmin gps. Non-fishing related, I got tix to two Bruins games.
Great Christmas....I'm very thankful. I had a great day and I hope everyone else did too. Now...time to get drunk.

Nice copper bass, Rosco - 
It's really gonna look great when it ages with that patina copper takes on -
My favorite gift was a Keurig coffee-maker - damn, it makes a great cup of coffee individually...just fired it up with some pretty robust Newman's Own...
Gotta have good starter fluid to get me going in the morning...  |

We got ourselves a new HP computor. Also a new puppie. It is now a 20 # golden that my wife calls Bella and I call hooligan. I forgot what it was like to have a puppie with a "tude" around the house.
Then I vivsited Mom who has had some health problems, we made her day. Then I went to see my brother SKD and watched him suffer on the couch with out for awhile. He'll survive though. It was a great day.

I can relate to that. You can pick your friends but you can't pick your family. Wife gave our family a cruise to the Caribbean in March. |

Do they provide an expense stipend for the Traveling Surfcaster column? I always found that writing anything that required travel was a losing proposition.

Chit, I just looked at her site..... nice stuff. And its copper! Thought it was bronze mold.

I was going to say that it was copper with a patina fnnish.. that was made by hammering a sheet of copper into a wooden form that is the rough shape of the bass, then all of the details are hammered in with different shaped tools... Its called 'chasing' Nice specimen  |
