Nice post Leland – still laughing.  :D   Jim   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Leland Miyawaki Sent: Monday, January 03, 2005 12:42 PM To: waflyfishers@waflyfishers.com Subject: Re: Get anything great for _______mas?   I pretty much have all I need and besides, I'm damn picky about my fishing stuff. This Christmas, I simply asked for a new pair of gravel guards and I specifically asked for the Simms gravel guards which are velro closing. My dear wife who doesn't fish, but at the same time never complains about the 200+ days I do, gave me a pair of Hodgeman zippered gravel guards. They, of course, do what they're supposed to do. Now, I don't succumb to the brand marketing that runs amok in our sport but working the zipper yesterday while suiting up in 32 degree morning fog on the Sky was a bit daunting, particularly the left foot.   Bless her heart though, I'll just quietly get the Simms velcro guards. She'll never understand if I try to explain the difference.   Leland.         Now that the Holidays are over, did you all get what you wanted for ______mas? (have to be politically correct nowadays), or whatever holiday it is that you observe. Me, I got enough money to buy either a nice rod or reel. Haven't decided which to get at this point. Since all seems to be dead on this board lately, maybe a discussion of actual presents, or of ones we are going to purchase would be in order. Has anyone been out and tried out thier new presents?   Roger Content-Type: text/plain; x-avg=cert; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Description: "AVG certification" No virus found in this outgoing message.
