If I get a new boat before Christmas (which could happen thanks to my wife) is it asking to much for the new lews KVD rod and reel too??? Just wondering 

If you're getting her a 10karat diamond necklace, No.  If you're thinking along the lines of a new set of pots and pans, make sure they're light weight aluminum, not cast iron. You'll thank me later.

Naah.  The Lews KVD costs about the same as a tank of gas.

You must be filling a mighty big tank ?

Cast iron is the ONLY way to fly. Just pickup a helmet while you're shopping for that cookware, you'll be fine. ?

I look at it as long as the bills are paid and she is happy you should be good!  But not all wives are made the same!

You have to push the boundries to find out where they're at. Once you know where they are you're good to go. Well..... You might end up sleeping in that new boat for a couple weeks, but after that you're good to go. ?

I would wait...you may need some "must haves" on the boat you forgot.

But do get a nice life jacket for her.

I was referring to the new boat he is planning on purchasing.  I guess he could be buying a johnboat with a 15hp.

Show her or read her this book and she will understand......

 

Just have it shipped to the neighbor...that's what I do.

In for a penny, in for a pound… however, order your rod and reel before you by the boat and feign surprise when it arrives ?
