New purchases for the new season??
Wondering what you all consider "must haves" for this upcoming season?
I'm thinking one more reel/rod for a boat outfit but I'm not sure about going wire or not.
I'm interested in those new LED Petzels - might pick up one of those.
Some more plugs made by the members here - I wanto ta catch some fish on your hard work 
Definiately a better EEL maintainence system 
... and all of this is up in the air if I get a boat too 
How about you all. What is a must have this year or at least a want? |

Fishfinder for boat...maybe a humminbird legend 3000 deep; hey, do any of you guys have one or know anybody who does?
Looking for a finder with bottom lock, but I don't want to shell out $800 for a Furuno.
After that I'm done; I almost had a heart attack when I combined all my credit cards last month. New house very expensive. Billy, start saving now!
Later,
Rick

Canal bike. I hate the concept - riding/fishing. But,........ I'm trying to figure out a guerillaesque design. Rods stuck in pipes waving around 10+' in the air hangin' off the back makes me cringe. Pedaling around with hip boots on also gives me the heebie jeebies. Yuck!
Boat. Another thing I really don't want. But,..... August was one long, long month last year.

Breathables
More free time
More time to fish
More quality time to fish
More time to fish with friends
Winning loto would help on the above, back to the grindstone.

Specialist , if you are getting a BG 7000 for the 121 3M , why wouldn't you use it on the 1209?
I don't think I need anything this year. Maybe some really light waders or hip boots. My Girlfriend owes me a pair of Orvis waders from my birthday last year. I'm not sure if i want full waders or just some hippers for the Ditch. I generally wait till the tide gets down but there are some great spots where if you have hippers , you can get lower down the bank earlier which really helps when landing a big one.

I already have 1 7000BG for the 1209 that Mike made me last year. I can't get the distance I need with it yet. Thats why the new one is spinning. Plus if my brother ever goes with me he canuse the spinner, and I can use the conventional.

Put me down for a new set of orvis breathables and wader boots
and wading jacket..
A pair of cannon electronic downriggers with the bottom tracking feature (ouch...850 for each rigger + 1100 for the contoller + 400 for misc outrigger junk) thats a lot of gas and bait!
4 nice live custom bait boat rods (matched w/ penn internationals)
4 nice custom bottom fishing rods for fluking to tog.
OH YEAH! and a S-B.com T-shirt!!!

I just bought a new Isuzu Trooper for beach/towing duty. Still need a new GPS, Shimano Baitrunner, wire line outfit and a part time job to pay for all this crap. Does it ever END?
