Default Too Soon For Christmas Wish list?

Not if ya have a new Ranger on the list rofl..seriously, after this year of fishing, of course I need to restock and get MORE TACKLE... One of my crummy spinning reels bite the dust after about 11 years of service, I only used this one for grubs and light topwaters, plus it was nice an light.
Anyone else wear out, use , or loose so much tackle this season they deserve a shopping spree at BPS? I DO!

what was the name of your crummy spinning reel, 11 years is a long time for service. tackle manufacturers love me, cuz i buy their stuff, throw it in the tackle box and just use a couple of old reliables lures that i have had for awhile. i think for me, maybe others too, buying the stuff is part of the process called fishing, dunno for sure. i sure wouldnt want to survive on the amount of fish i catch, i would starve, but gosh, i do enjoy the sport.

I would say the best thing for folks to get me are Gift Cerificates from BPS, Cabela's or any place I can either order on line, or get locally stuff I like. I get more and more disappointed everytime I go into Dick's, so I guess I wish that Dick's would close down, or get bought out by either BPS or Cabela's

I got a few things in mind. One is a new rod to replace the one that broke in the back of the pickup and another is another tackle bag. Im running out of room fast...........

hmmm,I've already replaced or repaired the rods that broke on me and added one or two as well....but I would like a backup of everyrod I use in a season as well as a couple of more speaciallized spinning rods in the 6' to 6'6" length range...of course all the reels to go with them. I also need to replace 3 to 5 of my Citica's starting to have problems with the anti-reverse bearings in them. Don't know a bassfisherman who couldn't say they could use an additional $1500 in baits.

Hmmmm, yes a new boat would do. But more realistically a small shopping spree would fit the bill. A digital camera, one of those bocca grips or something similar that has a scale, a new seat for the boat. A new vest, some new power pro, a couple dozen or so buzz baits. Money for next years fishing license and boat license. Not much but we fishermen always need so much. lol A cage for the bait monkey so I can let him out when I want.

Well I could use a trolling motor battery and a new Frogg togg set, next one will be the bib bottoms instead of the pants I had.I also need the Yamamoto tube bait for next spring.Other than that , you could throw in a Italian who knows how to cook and likes to fish. P N J
