Wishlist for 2018, Whats on yours???

Post by leggomye990 » Fri Mar 09, 2018 4:09 pm

Just a random for fun post about how much my bank account hates me during this time of year.

Making a shopping list for 2018 and this is what I have included so far...

Reels:
Daiwa Steez A TW (Maybe 2)
Daiwa Tatula SV TW
Shimano Bantam MGL
17 Shimano Scorpion DC
Shimano Curado K (Maybe)

Rods:
Shimano Bantam (Not sure which yet)
Megabass new Orochi XX (Not sure which)
...Could add another spinning rod maybe something more versatile as my only 2 spinning rods are NRX 852s and Hedgehog Evoluzion F4st

Tackle:
Could use some more tungsten jigs
Could try new 110 silents
Would try the Jack Hammers
A bunch of Sunline and Power Pro :lol:

Thought It would be fun to start a Wishlist thread and update it as I go.
Also, this will likely change over the months.

Lets see what's on your wishlists for 2018!

want to switch all my football jigs over to tungsten models

Surprisingly...not much for me.

Would like to get a more finesse oriented medium rod than the NRX 852c I have.

Other than that...few things intrigue me but, nothing I'm drooling over that I'd be willing to buy (Steez RD rod).

Minn Kota Ultrex on the boat
I'm also trying to get about a half-dozen of my older well-worn custom rods replaced with fresher versions.
Hopefully it will be a cheaper year.

Yup times 2....got mine already.

Benkei spinning rod for Ned Rigs
custom finesse baitcast rod
ALX Deputy and Toadface
Villain 2.0 6'10" ML casting rod

Used Excense DC
Used Steez 100HLA
2 new SV103
BG1500 for Benkei

Underspins
Frogs
Z-Man plastics
Crankbaits
Keitech Swing Impact
Hooks
Weights
Fins Braid

All since shortly before Christmas until now.

Hopefully I will not be able to respond to a similar thread next year. Going to try avoiding purchasing any more rods or reels in the future, and only replace terminal tackle as needed.
