skeeter Posted January 3, 2011 Report Posted January 3, 2011 My wife gave me a $50 gift card for bass pro for xmas. now I'm all excited cause i want a sled to pull my gear out with that is less bulkyer then the one i built. i go on to there web site and cant find any sleds, now I'm bummed out. this morning she says , lets go and see if you can find something else you might want. ok, so off we go but im not excited cause i really don't need anything else. we get there and start looking, float suits,rods,lures blah blah blah. well there some of those badboyz that everyone talks about, $3-$6 each. i am not spending $50 on lures and that's that....... walk over to look at the portable huts(just to kill time) I'm looking inside the clam base and i hear her say, "are those the sleds you were talking about?" stacks of 4 different size OTTER sleds. she goes over to the monster sled and says, is this big enough? the kind that have a tow bar on the front. $269---NOT then she says , what about this one. its the next size down, ya and how much is that one? $74.99 she says,, say what let me see, hmmmm 64"x29"x11" well that would probably do but its $25 more then my gift card. then she says , if you want it ,get it and i will pay the extra for it I pick one up and start to head for the cashier. but what about those lures you said you liked? i know have the sled and 6 badboyz in my tackle box.........

The JAY Posted January 3, 2011 Report Posted January 3, 2011 My wife and I were there today. Same story. $50 gift card didn't cover the new baitcast reel and hardware for making my own lures... Wifey comes through in the checkout aisle!!!
Big Cliff Posted January 4, 2011 Report Posted January 4, 2011 I found one like that 30 years ago. My words to this day are "I love you more today than I did yesterday but less than I will tomorrow" (well I didn't write them but). She is a keeper, just remember that you need to be a keeper too!
