Sage 990-4 XP…This would complete my rod selection for a while.

Great idea!

My suggestion items from your list, would be the landing net / glove.

Everyone likes to make Christmas lists.

Mine would include a new long-handled net, Wm. Joseph’s new Old School Backpack, SmartWool socks, and a GPS unit.

Tripod….mine is a POS.

New pair of Carhartt’s.

Was thinking about a Pelican case but not sure.

I am pretty easy.

You’ll love the Pelican whenever you take that kayak out but any other time you aren’t in a boat it will be nothing more than a cumbersome way to haul around a body and a lens or two.

I’d love a new 8wt Helios for some great streamer ripping action. Also, I could really use some new 9.5′ cataract oars.

Will settle for the usual, several hundred meter spools of fluoro tippet, 20 or so leaders and four or five hundred packs of hooks.

A new Scadden with casting platform and leaning bar.
Waders.
Double-sided clipless pedals that will double for both road and mountain bike with shoes that will prevent this klutz from crashing and burning while walking in them! (Not fish related but certainly ‘wish’ related!) 😉
A host of heavily discounted fly lines to play with like Sharkskin, Rio Gold!
Water to fill the rivers, streams and lakes around here!

You see…this is just the kind of expert info you can assertain here at IA!

Thanks Carter.

I had a tough time putting this year’s together, but after a bit of head scratching I came up with a bunch of things I’d been meaning to buy but hadn’t quite gotten around to picking up:

Joby Gorrilapod SLR
Color calibration system for my monitor
2008 Hunting/Fishing license
Replacement front & back caps for my Sigma lenses (great glass, but the caps are miserable)
Extra QR plate for my ballhead

I’d like for the world to be at peace and no hunger.

Barring that, a nice 7wt rod and a new Fishpond vest isn’t going to hurt a thing.
