Basspro gift cards gotta love ‘em then I get to chose what I want to buy 

That’s what I got. I got enough to pick up my new penn Conflict II reel for my catfish setup. Birthday is two weeks from today and I’ve asked for more bass pro gift cards lol gotta get a rod and terminal tackle to finish out the setup.

Present (besides Fishmas) is a spool of 40# Sufix 832 - I guess just because...already thanked them.

 

I use it on two reels, so this gives me fills for both @75yds each.

I got a small travel tackle bag

I got a Plano 3700 weekend series tackle bag. It was such a good deal at $19 (normally $40), I bought one for my Father too.

Quantum Tour S3 on sale at TW Xmas sale for about $130. Plus a $100 GC at Discount Tackle turned into my first little foray into swimbaits (R2S S-wavers, Magdraft freestyle); my first MG Vision 110 after slaying fish all fall and winter on the 110 Jr.; a TON of new Ned rig baits and hooks; and some FC line. But now I need a swimbait rod!!

My wife and daughters got me some gift cards from BPS.

Bass Pro cards and bought myself a few rods fro TW 25 days sale. Im not sure what to buy from Bass Pro yet, I kind of want another ultra light/light spinning set-up or a nice rod for a SLX reel.

I have a bps panfish elite rod and can’t say enough good things about it. I know some had problems with bps rod guides but the Fuji faz lite guides gave me zero issues. I like my 6’-8” ultralight so much I’m thinking of getting the 7’-2” light powered rod during the spring classic.

4 Cashion rods and these.

Good pick up!

 

The new Nasci FC or whatever Shimano is calling them (silver/gray bodies) appear to be REALLY good reels. I finally got a chance to play with one and IMO its what the old style should have been ... if for no other reason than the addition of a threaded handle. 

I really like my nasci. It’s my # 1 reel.

Now if I could just learn how to pronounce it…

Thanks for that, I have already ordered a 6' HMG but will pick one of the BPS rods when they go on sale. Now I have to figure out what reel to get!

I know I’ve recommended the Piscifun Carbon X reel many times on here and although it’s usually met with resistance I liked mine enough to order another 1000 size on Amazon for $50.99 on Thursday. I’m planning on purchasing the shallow spare spool direct from Piscifun to go with it. Although it was used on my bps rod last year I’m planning on purchasing a Daiwa Legalis LT from my local tackle shop in spring as I’m a complete sucker for a color matched combo ? To paraphrase Fernando Lamas/Billy Crystal “It’s better to look good than to fish good” ?? I’m planning on spooling the Daiwa with blue Kastking monofilament. I’m Eric and I have a problem? With that said I know I’m in good company after seeing the blinged out beauties by the likes of bulldog 1935 and KP Duty not to mention all the others on here.
