What do you want for Christmas?

Mike Cork · December 12, 2011, 01:28:30 PM

My latest blog describes some things I think I'd like to try out in the coming season and have put them on my gift card purchase list.

www.ultimatebass.com top right corner you'll find my blog header and a link.

What have you all been thinking you'd like to try either as a gift or on someone else's dime?

DBrooke · December 12, 2011, 02:25:01 PM

One of them fancy Dobyns is my plan, just not around Christmas!

It would make a great Christmas Gift.

A new boat. And I think I got it. Just have to to find a place to store it.

tepponogu · December 12, 2011, 03:55:23 PM

Hey Mike, if you go with the g and don't like it, you can send it my way! ;-)

kidd · December 12, 2011, 04:05:38 PM

Well I've already bought myself four new Dobyns rods so I suppose that should be enough but um...a DX745, a 735, a DX704, and some Revos to go along with them. Just in case someone's watching. O:-)

sillybass · December 12, 2011, 04:32:47 PM

Don't usually get much for Christmas , because I buy what I want through out the year .

ex301p · December 12, 2011, 05:34:08 PM

Dobyns Champion 735 Frog rod would be sweet! Been wanting one for over a year now, just have not had the funds.

OutdoorFrontiers · December 12, 2011, 07:31:29 PM

Well, I'm fortunate that I pretty much have everything I want for fishing. I have a good boat, decent electronics and enough tackle to supply a shop. Plus, anything that I want I simply buy during the season.

I also hunt, but there too, I have somewhere between 15 and 20 various guns, two bows and enough gear as well. So my wife doesn't even think about buying outdoor gear for me as a gift.

But, this past spring I bought an 1100 cc Yamaha cruiser bike for times when I don't want to drive my 12 mpg pickup truck. I'm asking for a motorcycle lift, or chaps and a jacket.

I just ordered some riding boots for my wife. Now I'm just hoping that they arrive before the 25th...

How about the less expensive stuff? If you could have three lures you don't already own what would they be?

DBrooke · December 13, 2011, 10:04:17 AM

Since I lost my only one... A white vibrashock

Since you said 3 lures then.... 3 vibrashocks

bassmaster3541 · December 13, 2011, 12:14:24 PM

Too much to even get into. I'm wanting to try the Spro DD's, right now I have all strike king 6XD. I'm looking to get another cranking rod, and probably a Dobyns rod for frogging. Also am probably going to get a Humminbird with DI or SI

Todd · December 13, 2011, 02:40:40 PM

I want some of those Spro FatJohn 60mm. Especially in that Cellmate color. I'm branching out and trying to use crankbaits more.

Jomatt20 · December 13, 2011, 02:46:19 PM

I sure wouldn't mind 3 wood walkers jigs from s.w.a.g. Jigs those puppy's look like they'll rid some lips!

novabass · December 13, 2011, 03:49:40 PM

I would like to have a good flipping rod. A Veritas 7.6 Heavy would be good.
A Dobyns rod would be good too, but I would just be dreaming there.

I would also like to have a Shimano reel. I don't care what kind.

Bassinkorea · December 13, 2011, 04:32:44 PM

I purchased a used Triton a few weeks ago, so that will be my Christmas gift for the next few years

However, I just placed an order from the Triton store and BPS for a few small things, and they should arrive just before Christmas and I'll give them to my wife for her to wrap up for me.

1. 100 mph bibs and parker
2. Liverwell timer
3. Trailer straps
4. Save Phase
5. Triton culling kit

kidd · December 13, 2011, 04:43:03 PM

Lures? The new jackall frog, Damiki air craws, and some D&M punch baits. Haven't tried any of those but want to.

calincalif50 · December 13, 2011, 04:53:24 PM

already got one of the gifts I wanted for under the tree, would also like the netbait skirt kit and some jigs...now if she takes my daily hints. LOL

crankenstein · December 13, 2011, 05:00:18 PM

I've got a Pinnacle Optimus baitcaster on the way. I've wanted to try one since they came out, so this is my gift from Mrs. Crankenstein. I guess that would make her "The Bride of Crankenstein"

. Sorry, it's been a long day...

saint romain · December 13, 2011, 08:38:49 PM

I got all of my "presents" already...
1st was from me, a Core 50MG7 (I returned a reel and paid up around 100$)
2nd was from the GF, a Calais 200A (it pans out about the same, she paid up 100$ for the earrings she wanted, and I got a calais on a black friday blowout)

Now, I just need a good glass rod for the calais (she will be my crank bait reel) and a punching rod for one of my other reels...but I think I got enough presents this year!

All I want for Christmas is to be home and not working.

I know what you mean. My daughter is 5 and son is 2 and this is the first time I've been home for Christmas since my daughters first Christmas. Really looking forward to this year. As for what I'm getting. I've already got most of it.

3 Dobyns Rods
100mph gear
New wallet
Rod Gloves
Numa sunglasses

iClass · December 14, 2011, 08:37:19 AM

Hmmm 3 baits...

Well how about tackle...
I would like a full compliment of Tungsten weights.
Ko Man Chi Spinnerbait
Trokar Hooks (Boxes & Boxes of 'em)

But aside from all that, cause I'll probably get it myself and I don't trust my wife to buy my tackle...
I would like...
Glenlivet XXV 1 bottle please

I've been very good this year

TNDiver · December 14, 2011, 10:47:36 AM

Anything from the UB Sponsor websites! Tungsten weights, El GRande Lures, swim baits, deep crank, frogs.

I am starting to get my tackle up to pretty respectable level, but I can always use more!

scbassfanatic · December 14, 2011, 10:58:07 AM

3 baits? I dont reallly have 3 baits that I would want to try that I am not willing to buy myself. At least I dont think so anyway. Maybe a swimbait or Luck Craft crnakbaits. But What I am trying to convince family to do is just give me gift cards that I can use to get a new depth finder on my boat. I figure after about 3 or 4 christmases I might have enough to at least get a good jump on a Lowrance HDS 7. LOL. And you would not believe how hard that is to do. My family just dont believe in gift cards. LOL.

What do you want for Christmas?
