Your Christmas "Fishing" Wish List?

[5th Tuition]

Oh, by the way, I tried out my new Christmas present yesterday. I've been wanting a new pair of binoculars for the boat. After a lot of searching, I decided on a pair of Bushnell H2O (waterproof, fogproof) 8x42 binoculars.

They were excellent for the price I paid (about 80 bucks from binoculars.com with free shipping). They are small, lightweight, and easy to focus.

I like them.

Now if I can just find some gannets diving.

Ouch. Sorry to hear that. On a positive note, maybe the new heat pump will be a lot more efficient and you'll save a ton of money to spend on gas for your boat.

I got new LED lights for my trailer for my birthday one year.

Skip, You stole my thunder on the whole HDS-10 thing. I don't know if Santa will bring one, but hopefully, I will have one up and running by this coming April...

Don - Before you buy , touch base. Perhaps we can get a deal if two units are ordered.

Still have to get with you about windlass. Be a good winter project.

Be sure to give our host a shot at getting those units for y'all.

I know I am getting an new FF/Plotter unit (either and HDS 5 or an Elite 5), not sure which one. I could always use another rod and/or reel to add to my never-ending collection.

I bought my GF a Steve F perch rod that is top notch and I am super excited to give it to her!!!

That is awesome! Your girl likes to fish? Lucky man.

I think that's what I want for Christmas....a girlfriend that likes to fish.

Of course.....my wife might object.....

I'll be treating myself to a Steve F rod for my birthday in March....might even get my son one of those Perch rods for his birthday too.

Marty, I really appreciate the kind words and I can’t wait for you bring it that 40’er on it.

You should see the rod I built for ste6168 girlfriend; it has some bling no doubt about that.

Scott, looking forward to building that rod for ya, all you have to do is give me a call in March and I’ll get it done.

So how did the Old fat Bastard treat everyone?

I got a new Medium Heavy 7' rod, some new Storm swimbaits and a couple of fishing related books......and some new fillet knives.

Oh...and the fishing version of Monopoly..."Fishopoly"..

My boy loves Monopoly and fishing, so we'll have a lot of fun playing together.
