I must have been very good this year. I received a new Okuma Sheffield Centerpin with a do-it yourself pack of Bent Rod Jigs. The fur and feathers will be flying this afternoon!

Santa's a great guy, he put an underwater HD camera/recorder under the tree. !! If I could only catch a fish now, I might get some good footage  ;D ;D

Why does "IF" seem like such a big word  :P

Merry Christmas everybody  :)

I got an Okuma centerpin and Trophy centerpin rod as well as the Rio Indicator line I had asked for. I got a bunch of other NFR items as well.

I also surprised my family with a big gift. Saved some money working on the side and bought my family a 50inch Samsung plasma 1080p and Samsung home theater package which also has an iPod/iPhone dock. They were pleasantly surprised.  :)

As far as fishing related, I got a simms exStream balaclava, studded felt soles for my korker boots, a copy of "the gilly" and some giftcards/cash that will more than likely be turned into fishing stuff  ;D

I tried out the carbide studded felts today while fishing the derby. I was a little skeptical that the studs would slide on the rock and slip more than straight felt. Was, i ever wrong and impressed. They bit like velcro. I put them through the paces with a long hike through mud, clay, moss, small to huge rocks, in water and out.
