Spring! However, I think the ole guy in the red suit is going to make me wait.

70 days to Mardi Gras!!!!

Mrs. Santa wasn't listening when I asked her to forward my wish list to the big guy for me.   a Lowrance Hook2 Trippleshot and a Daiwa Fuego. Somehow he got the idea that I wanted a blue topaz earring and necklace combo which arrived late last week.  I'm heading over to the local BPS tomorrow to have a 'chat' with him that revolves around removing some of his shorter white hairs with a primitive hand tool.  His memory must be failing, because The last time there was a mix-up a mini van ended up in the driveway instead of the new Nitro I'd asked for. He's been wearing white gloves since then, you'd think he would have gotten the message. 

I'd like some new to me crankbaits Santa...

You just have to go buy it yourself and have her wrap it!  haha.  At least that is what I did this year.  There will be a new Lowrance 9 TI2 on my boat come spring!!

If the opportunity arises I just might! I’ll let ya know. I have been to a gator bowl before back about 94 or 95 

Besides lures, I'm looking at:

T-H Marine G Force Troll Perfect

T-H Marine Eliminator Prop Nut

T-H Marine G-Force Trolling Motor Handle

 

Does anyone have experience with these and know if they are worth it? I'm looking to add to a Minn Kota Maxxum.

   My Christmas wish list was pretty short this year. I asked for a stainless Millennium boat seat for my Pelican 10E. I try to stay stocked up on lures and plastics. When I walk into a store with a fishing section thats my first stop. Clearance sales on lures are always happening. I'm good for at least two or three every time. 

   Of course as others have mentioned a new PB would be nice. Spring is coming I need an 11+ pounder to have a reproduction made of. I know the Big girl I let go 2 years ago is over 10 probably pushing 12 this year. She was 9.8 post spawn when I released her.This past spring she was bedded right off my dock looking much bigger than her last weigh in. But she simply would not take a bait, guess she didn't want me to know her weight. Maybe this spring.

Gift cards so I can make sure Santa gets me the correct items. ?

I caught several new PB's throughout this year along with several new species of fish I added to my fishing lifelist so you can say I got my Christmas gifts early this year. There are a couple weeks left in the year so I plan on fishing some more.

A lady never tells.

Costa Del Mar fantail shades are on my list.

The G-Force Trolling Motor Handle and Cable have been good for me.  I haven't had to replace a cable for a few years since I bought mine.

I put one on my 36v TM and it had noticeably less vibration after the install. Also makes it look nice as an added bonus.

What I have found thru the years is that Mrs Claus and all the elves do NOT like to buy Santa anything on his wish list. Santa it seems is too hard to buy for....

 

Say what? Santa provides specific lists of items even for his birthday! But alas, apparently the answer is always the same...

 

You already have enough fishing stuff. Enjoy your new socks..... ?

I know I'll be getting a Shimano Ultegra (4000 series) spinning reel, a Cadence CR5 med/heavy rod, and a digital scale that has a built in tape measure.  I have on my list a Chasebaits Mudbug lure, a River2Sea Whopper Plopper, a Teckel Sprinker Frog, and a fishing vest for my river fishing.

 

I've used the Whopper Ploppers and the Sprinker Frogs and are two of my favorite baits.  The Mudbug looks very interesting and can't wait to fish that lure.  If I don't get that lure for Christmas, I will be purchasing a couple of them.

Mrs. Claus picked me up some more Vision Oneten's and another Revo SX today.
