that was fishing related (be it a trip, gear, boat, whatever), what would it be??

Mine? I've got loads of gear & boats .. the only type I don't have would be ocean going boat for AK, but Fishgal's family has one, so I'm covered there smile

So, I'll ask for a trip to one of a couple of locales that I've always to fish:

1) Kamchatka <img border="0" alt="[santa]" title="" src="graemlins/santa.gif" />
2) Sowwhere warm with lots of big tarpon <img border="0" alt="[santa]" title="" src="graemlins/santa.gif" />
3) Great White fishing off of Australia ... I guess you can't do it off the GBR anymore, but there's still gotta be a spot smile <img border="0" alt="[santa]" title="" src="graemlins/santa.gif" />

I walk into the hole at dark xmas morning, its very cold. As it gets lighter I realize I'm not alone. As it gets light I hook a fish....while fighting the fish I notice that my company is Halle Berry wearing nothing but rolled down waders...did I mention how cold it was?

Never would I respond faster or more affirmatively to the question 'Do you need help landing that fish?'

That's fishing related....right?

Merry Christmas <img border="0" alt="[santa]" title="" src="graemlins/santa.gif" /> indeed.

Let's see here...

I'd have to say Kamchatka would be at the top of my list!!
Next would be chasing Rooster fish and poons down in the Keys, Belize, or Costa Rica.

Last but not least, an all expenses paid fishing trip with Jimmy Houston, just to see how many times I can accidentally bump him overboard...OOOOOOOOOOOH SON! laugh wink

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!! <img border="0" alt="[santa]" title="" src="graemlins/santa.gif" />

DR, the way to fix that Merc is by replacing it with a Yami - that's what you need for Xmas beathead

The only reason I'm staying with Smokercraft is that I at least get 100% trade-in on the upgrade thumbs

I would wish for fishing and ecosystems like we had in the 30s. That and for the market to go back to year 2000 levels, that would help.
