I sure use and LOVE the Shimano Flashboost lures and Deps Sakamata Shads. Both caught me a lot of bass in 2024. Literally hundreds of bass.

 

I'm like @softwateronly: I LOVE the Winter Solstice. It's my favorite day of the year.

@Swamp GirlI do appreciate the solstices more as time goes by, and try to mark them in my life.  But what gets me every year is the rate of change during the equinoxes, moves so darn fast even at my latitude compared to yours.

I hear ya, Scott. I fight the loss of light by adding light. My outside Christmas lights are twined blue and green and I just filled a box elder burl bowl with white Christmas lights. I also hanged two scones last week and have another two to hang. Then there are the candles! I do not go gentle into this good night, I rage, rage against the dying of the light!

I've already given my Christmas fishing list to my daughters.

The only thing on my list is spending quality time with my family celebrating Jesus birthday.

Some of those days between the equinoxes see an additional four minutes more or less of light from one day to the next.

Christmas is about the only time of year that I DON’T buy fishing or kayak gear.

If it wasn’t for fishing my family members wouldn’t have a default go to gift for me and not just Christmas. Back in the day I can always count on the Mystery Tackle box …
