Score any new fishing stuff for Christmas?

[Jrob78]

I was pretty fortunate this year and was able to do a little shopping, my monkey is very pleased. I got a bunch of new crankbaits and some cool swimbaits.

Some of the stuff I got was from the TW 25 days of Christmas sale and some of it was just stuff I wanted. The things I'm most excited to try out are the Huddleston 68's, the X-80 Trick Darters and the Ima Pinjacks. I just happened to get the email alert that the Hudds were available right after I got my Christmas bonus, it was a no brainer.

I'm really impressed by the Savage Gear Bone Cranks, they look like a top notch bait with good components and were great at buy one get one free. The Spro Fat Papa 55's look great also. I bought the Punisher hair jigs, in part, to have a model to go off of so I can tie my own. They look great though and are really inexpensive. I'm also really impressed by the Mattlures baits. The plastic is unbelievably soft and should have a great action in the water. I've used a few Mattlures baits before but not the minnows or the trout baits.

Add my Secret Santa gifts to this list and I had an awesome Christmas! I can't wait to hit the water with my new baits. I see a preliminary trip to the swimming pool in my near future!

So if you got some cool fishing stuff for Christmas, let's see it.
