I got a Lowrance XOG GPS. Now to get a chip for it.

[LABS4ME]

I bought myself a brand new set of Artic Armor in the camo version!!! Man is it sweet!

Good Luck!

I got something I normally don't get because of my work schedule. I got to spend quality time with my wife, parents, brother, sister-in-law and two little nieces. We got to enjoy a small town church service, season greetings and the fun of teasing my nieces about getting gifts. Watching those girls rip open gifts was all that I needed.

I think Cliffy said it best. I am also getting some extra time with some family members, and attended a quaint little Christmas Eve service in a small-town church last night. It's been great.

[GatorBait]

Agreed, I got to spend time with my family which is always a nice thing. I rarely have any holidays off, so it's extra special. I did score and got my 1st Jiffy Auger, no more borrowing from the pops. Also came away with a couple new Beaver Dams and a Big Buddy heater. A great year, snow, ice, cold weather, I'm in heaven.

Tightlines,

Gatorbait

h20c for me- and heading to mille lacs in the morning to try it out

[BIG DS]

Nothing, I haven't bought it yet. I'm too hard to shop for.

[mrwalleye_13]

Get the ol chip for the h20... the northern lakes chip or whatever it is i can't think.. but you won't be disappointed, i have had 3 gps' and the h20 with the chip is amazing... lots of lakes 1 ft contour lots with just some contour but much easier, lots less holes to drill to find your area...

[Scott M]

A Quantum Accurist, a Ben Franklin at Thorne Bros. to burn up, Cabela's GC, the new lakemaster Paper Map for LOW and one for Winni.

Time abroad with my family. And savings on the trip to use on goose decoys and ice fishing things when I get back to MN.

Merry Christmas to all.

[Bobby Bass]

I got a custom made marquee sign for my home theater from the daughter. Outstanding!

[palisade1kid]

I think it's more of a question.....what did you give.

Being with family and sharing the love with all of them.

[UdeLakeTom]

I got to meet my newest Grandson..nr 6, Samuel Charles, and nr 2 Grandson and my Son-in-law took me fishing on the Indian River near Merritt Island, in Florida. We caught lots of sea trout, and a saltwater catfish. And of course Grandma took care of me.

[SP180]

Received a new marcum and thorne bro rod, other then that, i bought gifts for wife, 5 kids, 2 dogs and a cat. 2 future daughter in laws and parents on both sides. So i am so broke, i cannot even fish .

Sounds like a great Christmas.

[SomethingFishy*]

Some Oakley sand ATV goggles for dusty condition atv riding, a new poker set for the wheelhouse, a bunch of meat (venison, pork and beef), cabelas gift card and best of all $80 in Chipotle gift cards

[Grant Pearson]

As most everyone in my family knows, I'm extremely hard to shop for, as my hobbies (mainly hunting and fishing) are either outside of what they do, or I'm a little too specific for them to find (e.g. Musky marabou tandem bucktail in orange and black(is that too hard?)), so I got gift certificates to the place formerly known as Galyan's, Gander Mountain, a visa gift card, and a gift card to Wally world; as well as cash. Now the hard part comes!!! Choices, choices!!!!!

[vermilionwally]

I got a nice portable fish house so i wont have to sit out there on a bucket anymore. Now i just need a heater.

wow wanderingeyes you made out well!!!

Well my old auger went bad on me this year, so I needed one asap, that was a couple weeks before christmas. So I just went out and bought it for myself. The others were from family members, they all knew I wanted the Aqua Vu, and I was going to get it from the wife, but when I had to buy an auger, they stepped up and bought the camera for me, then the wife bought me the big buddy, so I could have something to open from her.

I do feel lucky, as I got to spend the holidays with family, and I got out tonight for some fishing with my son, Priceless!

[Fred_Bear]

Full arctic armour suit (amazing!!)

Panfish ice combo i'm loving so far

Semi-auto 12 ga which i've been using for the last 3 months but was meant for a christmas gift

I also will get to use my dad's new FL-12 and H2O with MN lakemaster chip

[Shack]

I turned 30 this year, I do not get anything for Christmas anymore .

Just happy to have another great time with my family. You never know when they might not be there the next day.

I did how ever get $50 from grandma and grandpa and my second Black and Decker power adjusting wrench from my other Grandma. Glad to have another Christmas with them still here.

Kids how ever got a ton of toys and what not.

It was a great Christmas.

[TrophyEyes]

Some new lures, new Carhartt coat, Lowrance 520C and a $100 in gift cards.

But most importantly my 12 week old son. And he smiled at me all day.

[Glockwinger]

Got a great multi-brightness 4 LED headlamp, and an awesome pair of new Cabela's winter boots...both will get some use on Mille Lacs when I go up starting on Thursday. I got my son his first ice fishing rod (he is 7) and he is coming with me the the big pond.

What was more fun was the giving this year. I dug deep for the family and got my wonderful wife a diamond necklace and earrings, and my both my kids a NintendoDS portable game thing. The looks on everyone's faces still brings a smile to mine That and getting to spend the day with my wife and kids, my folks, my siblings and their spouses, and my 10 month old nephew made it all right with the world for a day.

[Scott K]

Glock you hit it dead on their, once you hit a certain age, it is more about the giving, and seeing the reaction of the others. Giving is much better then recieving, my children made out better then any year before this one. The wife I skimped on a bit, but I will need to make that up to her soon!

[SM1]

Got a camo arctic armor suit, leech lake fillet knife, buddy heater, ice armor mittens, cash and a pile of gift cards from gander. Oh, and she got some nice things too.
