The good... and the bad

The good...
Finding out the girl I've been seeing for less than a month got me the new Shappell Bayrunner shanti for Christmas.

The bad...
They are selling out everywhere and are tough to find so her special ordering it will not get it to me till Saturday.

I feel like a kid who got a toy on Christmas morning only to find out Mom forgot to get the right batteries for it lol. It's gonna be a long 3 days. Anyone else get something a little "bitter-sweet" for Christmas?

A beautiful assortment of Bionic Bucktails and Airplane jigs I don't think I'll be able to fish with in NH waters 3 seasons from now.

800....that's not bad, that's just not as good.

bad would be getting the order on Sat and finding they shipped the wrong product (through no fault of your GF).

Sweet gift!  I had to travel to concord to get my auger.  They didn't have it in stock anywhere else.  So I was almost in that boat.  Heading to the berkshires tomorrow night to for a weekend of fishing.  Thank god I was able to find it.

Good luck!

The real present is a girl like that though.

Yup, got my first ever power auger... but I have to wait a couple days for the oil to be delivered.

I got a frabil suit but she disregarded my note to order a size large and got a medium instead. It was a very nice gesture but nonetheless it was too small and gonna have to ship it back and swap it out. I also scored a 13 fishing black betty combo; just my luck they sent one with a bent eyelet on the rod so thats gotta get exchanged as well.
