I am dreaming of a fishing gear Christmas

WHO out there in Fishwrecked land is hoping to get some new fishing or boating gear for Christmas - and what are you hoping for?

I know Brett (Albee Mangles) got an early Xmas present when he picked up a new Twinpower recently.

If you had a generous wife, husband, girlfriend or boyfriend, what would you like them to get you for Xmas?

All the best for Christmas everyone and may 2009 be a great year for you all,
Colin Hay

I asked for a whole bunch of fishing gear

Wed, 2008-12-24 08:30

and my parents bought me a couch. they reckon I spend too much on fishing gear. No idea what my sis has got me, but I reckon it may just be some fishing stuff.

 

birthday coming up will be a different story though (I hope!), we'll see how generous they are feeling before launching into what I want.

about the fishing gear you will (hopefully) get for your birthday.
Fisho - I hope you have wealthy family and friends.

Pity that the surprise has been let out of the bag Nathan, but that's a nice pressie.

my wishlist reads as so:

Wed, 2008-12-24 10:15

Saltiga Dogfight

Stella 18000SW

Stella 4000FD

Smith/Ripple fisher/Carpenter/Hots GT popper rod (PE5 and PE8)

Van Staal VSB150

Sage Xi2 10wt fly rod

 

Unfortunately thats like $7k or so of gear (and pretty much geared towards this Exmouth trip). Unless I win powerball tomorrow night, it will probably remain a wish list for a while until other models come out and superceed what I want.......
