    Shimano trevala s rod and a hobie cart.

    I lost my hobie cart at HRBT couple months ago so I built one out of PVC and it snapped in half first time using it in the sand at cbbt. Didn't even make it to the water! Lol

    What I really really want is the evolve motor. Might break down and get one. Decisions decisions......

        I really want the Humminbird 798 side imaging unit....I think it would cause me to catch less fish as a result of watching the screen the whole time

        It's hard for me to pull the trigger on it without seeing one in action first.

            I got a set of Thule Aero Blades + towers and pads for transporting my kayak.

            Also got a Daiwa Luna 253 for my birthday, which was earlier this month. It's spooled up with 20lb powerpro...can't wait to use it =)

              I am looking for a dry top to wear in the winter over my chest waders. I generally don't paddle far or in big water during the winter, but I would feel a bit better prepared by having some coldwater protection.

              I have a large and tall body that does not fit into standard sized garments very well. Therefore, I am hesitant to order a top sight unseen over the internet. I have visited 4 shops in the Annapolis area that carry kayaks and accessories -- none of them have an XL dry top in stock that I can try on.

              If any of you have an unused XL dry top that you are willing to part with, let me know. Or if you know of any reasonably local shops that have an XL dry top in stock, please let me know that too.

                  Nothing for my kayak per se, but I did ask for a Powell baitcasting rod for jigging since tacklewarehouse.com had them on sale. I'm still searching for a rod to overcome my hand-deafness. My Carrot Stix spinning rod works pretty well, but I still want a baitcasting rod.

                    I am planning on getting a pickup truck in 2012- just not for Christmas- I have the Yakima tower and Land Sharks cradles on my Ford Focus- best thing I did was get the roofmount- nope, while a big improvement over the foam blocks, that's not exactly true-the best thing I did in 2011 was getting my Outback Mirage- that has given me a totally different prespective on Kayak fishing-

                              I didn't ask for much. But I am getting the components needed to complete the build of my lithium battery for my Torque. If I get money and/or gift cards, I'll look into getting into the realm of baitcasters...

                              I definitely need/want a better PFD as well.
