What's the best thing you've bought tied to your fishing hobby this past year? Tis the season...

Chris Carson composite reeds.

Hands down my Ulterra.

Hands down the Ultrex I want to purchase!

Braid for my spinning reel!

Probably the Ultrex for me.

Ultrex

H2O Express bibs & jacket.....

Pit Bull split ring pliers

Bass Boat
Daiwa Tatula CT Reel

Skeeter Center Console to take the whole family.
Ranger is now resting up for tournaments.

Xi5

ULTREX

more rods for different techniques...less time retying and more time fishing.

Ditto

ZX225

Been hand making all my Baby Doll Jigs for 30 years. Belt sanding, drill pressing eye socks, drimmel work then painting and installing all the parts. Now I have CAST Industries doing most of that for me with exact casting of the jigs. I still install the eyes and build the skirts; but what a blessing to have a nice professional looking product.

Ultrex

same......and I bolted it to a "new-to-me" Skeeter.

New RTIC beer cooler.

Gas and oil for the boat and ultrex

I gotta stop working so much. I think I've only bought MAYBE $50 worth of lures all year and only spent around 15 days on the water.

Legend V20 and Ultrex

Ultrex

Gasoline and Beer

To be honest my Phoenix boat , how other boats still get sold I have no idea

#1 Ultrex
#2 Ladder for the trailer. Makes it so easy to get in and out of the boat. No more climbing over the fenders to get in.

2 ULTREX for my 2 boats

Vexan rod

The custom made rods I got from Kevin Smith of Shamrock Rod and Reel Services. They have out performed all rods I have owned in the past.

2017 Nitro Z19 pro pack

Helix 12 with Mega imaging

Show off

Triton 20 TRX. And Triton gold membership.

new birds

3 bank charger all the way

Thats what I needed the Gasoline and Beer for.

AquaVu MultiView camera!! Very interesting seeing where bass might be REAL deep in my home lake!!

I'm a big fan of ExOfficio boxers briefs. They are advertised as 17 countries, 6 weeks, 1 pair of underwear. I wouldn't recommend that kind of use, but these things are awesome on a hot day of fishing.

bought my wife a cricut cutting machine for her scrapbooking --crafts and stuff

sure made my fishing life a lot better !

Without question, the Ultrex.

I bought a micro power pole shallow water anchor for my Stratos 176. It's perfect for this "baby bass boat" of mine.

I bought a MTB gift order for my buddies and we had monthly unboxing videos
which kept us in touch for a good year of fishing trips.
Didn’t use many of the lures yet but it was fun to get some different lures to try.

Phoenix boat and I agree with Brad what a ride.

+2

a plane ticket to Texas to fish with my son and his buddy @ Ray Roberts , caught my first Texas bass , my first Texas sandy , my first Texas catfish !! Never forget it , tons of fun , grateful to my son's buddy Steve for taking us out .

Have been eyeing those swim jigs. Hope Santa brings me a gift card or two

203 Elite Champion with a 300 Promax Merc.

Daiwa Steez

Senko mold

Yea, I went that route a couple years ago. Things were great until her crafting habit grew much bigger than my tackle habit. Eventually lost up my Rod building room to reams & reams of crafting paper. Now I'm looking at building a "She Shed" to hold all of her junk. And it all started with a single Cricut machine... Lol

Best thing I bought this year? Upgraded electronics. The bigger screens are a great help for my old eyes.

Bought a Fish Pond summit sling pack. Almost all of my fishing is done with fly rod and either wading or drift boat with guides. This lets me have the necessities handy and accessible.

instructional trips with Biggs

13 Fishing Concept TX on a Sarge "The Priest" custom rod!!!

Hands down my Ultrex.

Ultrex...not here yet but should be in a week. But I know it'll be a gamechanger for me.

Basscat Puma with Evinrude 250 HO, I am in love with her

Whopperplopper

4" green pumpkin Yum Dingers with chartreuse tail. Thrown on a shaky head, it will catch bass year-round when the bite is tough.

Toss up between a Helix 10 mega and the 6th sense cloud 9 c25 i caught my pb on.

$5 lure retriever from Academy.....has saved more than $150 in crank baits

Dobyns Fury FR 704C (7 ft heavy) Game changer for worm fishing for me.

BPS Johnny Morris platinum 8:3:1. The f1rst one is so good I bought a second on sale this month.

I traded for a G-Rod made with the single wide carbon atom material, graphene, as part of its structure.

Mine is the trout rod and oh! I like the way it loads up and casts light lures.

I might have to try one of their bass rods next year. I understand the firm is re-engineering/re-designing its rods a bit for the USA market.

Brad

got an ulterra for xmas from my sweety

Dobyn's Fury rods. I'd recommend them for the money
