Santa's Fishing Gifts?

[Red Childress]

Did anyone get any cool fishing stuff over the holidays??


I picked up 2 St. Croix Big Dawg blanks to get built out to 9'6" or so for the upcoming year. That's it for me.

I got a bunch of the new 5" plastic Tuff Shads. Have about one of every color and a couple duplicates now. We had about 6 of them this past season and they were a great bait for us. Chris is also making 8" baits out of molded plastic with a rattle now. I got 4 of those to try this year. I expect them to be good just like the 5"ers. I always liked all my old cedar Tuffs and was skeptical about the new plastic ones until I started catching fish on them in 2010. Now, I think I have a bunch of old cedar Tuffs that won't even get wet anymore.

A guy has tuffs listed on ebay, about $1-2 more than they cost new so I've been slowly adding to my collection when paypal monies are there. I love'em. We caught a good number of fish on them this year. I can't wait to run the 8 inchers. I'm sure they will be just as good.

Been saving towards the Bulter show so I can get all my goodies there for the season!

Nothing really for Muskie. I got a new ice suit by Strikemaster, Strikemaster Lazer power auger and a Marcum LX3 ice flasher. Maybe I'll get lucky and pull a Ski up through the hole this winter. I'm thinking live suckers for bait.

Santa dropped off plane tickets, hotel reservations, car rental and boat rental for Marathon Key Tarpon fishing June 11th threw 18th. I must have been good.
