That is sweet... 

My winter purchase is spending $$ on getting scratches fixed on the metal flake.

   Anybody Got Purchase Plans Over Winter?

 

   This was a trick question, right?    ??

A better jig set up. 7’2” heavy expride, Bantam mgl. 

Vanford on the way.  Hopefully metanium 2020 7.1 if I can find one

I’ll probably pick up a couple nfc blanks when they have a good sale. May need a reel or two to go with them. Nothing high end this year though.

Yeah....it was, I figure any member that doesn't answer is sand bagging. What fisherman goes all winter without any purchase of anything????    Just sayin'

I’m gonna be restocking plastics. I don’t really count that as a purchase lol. 

No plans for me.  My wife got in a big fight with the Bait Monkey and won.  She has a restraining order on him now.  I told him to stay away for awhile, maybe he can come back around Christmas.  I plan on fishing a lot between now and Christmas, I'm sure I will need to stock up by then.

I put in an order for a Phoenix 920 Elite a while ago and it should be here in a month. Gonna be a major upgrade from the old tracker lol.

Sorry off-topic question. Do you run snow tires in the winter?

I have a 2019 Sierra with the X31 offroad package and I just run the normal all terrains during winter, works just fine.

This one, probably. Not out of anything. Got more rods and reels than I use.

Two steps ahead of me, and congratulations. For me it’s between the 6.2 or the 3.0 and do I want the payments. Not to mention the fact my 20 year old mule is still running strong and just has to get me to the water....

I’m looking at retiring a couple of my older baitcasters at the end of this fishing season. As far as purchasing them goes, I’ll have to wait and see how Christmas goes. 

Looking at 2 Okuma rods,one bps rod,a Piscifun spinning reel and finally a new Tatula CT to round out and hopefully finish rods and reels so I can start saving and research a kayak purchase ?

If I can swing it, I'd like to upgrade my boat.   Probably not brand new, but if I can find a late model Gambler, Ranger, or Bass cat in the 20 foot range with a 225 or 250.  But if not, km gonna upgrade the electronics and get a shallow water anchor system.  I'd like to have a couple of 12 inch monitors and add some lights to to inside of compartments.  Probably about due for a new set of batteries.  If I keep my boat, I'm gonna put new tires on the trailer and probably paint the trailer.  We shall see what kinda boats I find out there and what I can get for mine before I do anything.   

 

I had my motor rebuilt 3 years ago, so it's good to go. It runs like a scalded dog.

Okay I will answer. I am like @Derek1. I will restock on a few soft plastics and maybe a few little minor things. Unless I break something before my year is done I won't be spending very much this winter. I am well stocked on most of what I need.

Good point. Yeah, the T-Wing is not a requirement. 

I loved my Fuegos, but picked up a tatula because I couldn’t find a high speed lefty fuego. The tatula is a better reel, I believe it has more bearings as well but definitely casts and reels much smoother. 

 

 

 

 

Hopefully a recessed pedal tray will be in the works. Not sure the brand yet, hoping it will be worth the effort and the loss of the 3 rod tubes in my rod locker that only hold my lure retriever. 

Got my wish list filled already on the TW website. All I gotta do is swap it over to the cart. When the Black Friday discount hits I'll have my order completed in less than 3 minutes. 

 

@A-Jay Those AT4's are amazing trucks. I trust you're going with the 6.2 liter. That's basically a detuned LT engine version that's in my Z51 Corvette. Endless torque with that 10 speed tranny in the AT4. Go big or go home, I say!

Yes. 

I've had a 6.2L in the last few rigs including the Denali I'm running now.

They've all been good to me.

Do you just put it in Auto 4?

Never used real winter/mud tires in Maines worst winters, just 4wd was always enough. Mine goes from 2 to 4wd high range while at speed if it suddenly gets bad. 

 

That changed when I put a quick mount plow on the truck to keep my own drive clear. That's where the lugs on the more aggressive tires became important and necessary. Going up tote (woods) roads to hunt also became less stressful, although I've been on more than a few with regular multi purpose tires. Wet deep snow fill the tread on the multi purpose and they slip and loose traction easier.

Sure I have plans, but...Like Mike Tyson said...Everybody got a plan till you get punched in the nose.
