Last Minute Gift Ideas For Fishermen

I’ve never really understood why people love go out to shops. Don’t get me wrong, I love to spend, but the act of going to a mall to shop is about as fun as being kicked in the shin by a two year old. Call me lazy if you want, but if I could do all of my shopping online, I would. This time of year is of course the worst time to shop in stores. I don’t mind the crowds so much, but waiting in line, especially with my two year old son, is just brutal. Especially after he has just kicked me in the shin. So for all you people out there that feel my pain, do yourself a favor and buy some gifts online. Etsy is a great source for unique fishing and non-fishing gifts, and if you live in the US or Canada, you can probably find a seller that lives fairly close and can ship or deliver you some stuff before Christmas. Here are a couple of examples of the artwork you can find on Etsy.

The beauty of Etsy is that you can find thousands of hand made items, including, but not limited to lures, flies, carvings, paintings and more. My lovely wife even has a few items up for sale, including these cowls.

I Love To Shop!

OK, I really don’t like shopping, but I do like spending money, which is really unfortunate, because I don’t have a lot. I did however, make two big purchases this week, and they cost me nothing. I got a new underwater video camera (the same one Jon just purchased, the Sanyo WH1), which was a late birthday/Fathers day present and a new kayak.

Some of you may remember I picked up a used canoe last year and had hoped to use it regularly. I’m ashamed to say it, but I haven’t used it once this year. It was a pretty beat up canoe, but despite its looks, it worked just fine. The reason I never used it is because no one would go canoing with me, and since the canoe was a good 80+lbs, transporting it to and from the roof of my car wasn’t an option. Well today I sold it, and with the money I received I was able to buy myself a new entry level kayak that was on sale because its an older model. I don’t have an excuses not to be using this new toy, its half the length of the old canoe, and weighs only 26 pounds!
