How many times have we been over this Paul? You send the person you were given 200 $1 scratch off tickets. 

TW order sent, the person I got should get it by December 22

TW the unofficial sponsor of Fishmas. 

 

You should hit em up ... this might be the start of something

Why would anyone want already scratched scratchers? Surely you don't think I'm dumb enough to send virgin scratchers  ? 

Mine went out today. I pull from what I have that I use and have confidence in. I know what works for me for LM and SM in my area. Hope it works as well for my recipient. Merry Christmas!

Fishmas shopping and shipping complete.

 

Now to wait.....

Fishmas accomplished. 12/18 supposed date.... hopefully gets there in time. 

So when the package arrives, are we posting what we got immediately or are we saving it for a specific date?

I think I saw that Deak was going to set up another thread to 'report  our loot'.

Put it under the tree. You need to keep your tree up until ice out, then you can take your tree down and open your gift. Don’t break the tradition. ?

Uh - don't have a tree. We have a Yule Log that we decorate from Nov 1 to Dec 20th, then burn it in the fireplace on Winter Solstice.

Maybe I'll drag the tree out onto the ice so I have a new offshore brush pile to fish in the spring. ?

I’m going to make some ‘trees’ next year and set sail under the cover of darkness and plant them in my lake.

Ya - Unfortunately I'd have to go through tons of paperwork here in MN to do the same thing. Dropping X-Mas trees - or anything else - into waters without a permit is illegal here.

It is here too. I live on a private lake so they’re a little more flexible.

I don't think we have any of those here - unless it's a farm-pond.

Yes, here too. It was a joke, I don't even have a tree, lol.

It isn't true, but sometimes it certainly feels like there's more private lakes here than public ones. ?

Well - half my gifting shipped today - the other half is due to ship next Wednesday...so it should be a surprise until that second shipment reaches them.

Shipped mine yesterday. Should be delivered tomorrow or Saturday.

 

Got my tracking number today. Tackle Claus is on his way! Be good, lest ye be visited by Tackle Krampus instead!
