The Fishing Line: Stripers still around

If you are not out fishing, now would be a good time to do some shopping. Looking for some new ideas for the fishers on your holiday gift list? Here are a few interesting items I found:
The Fishing Enthusiast Saltwater Lure of the Month Club is a gift that lasts all year long. “Perfect for smaller saltwater fishing off the ocean shore, pier, or small charter boat.” Each month a premium crafted lure will be delivered right to the door. Every subscription comes with a written history and back story of each lure. Includes premium lures like the Big Johnson Silver Minnow, Swim’n Image, Mirrolure, Striper Strike, Super Spook and the Jumping Finger Mullet. (fishing enthusiast.com)
Choose one of WaveSpin’s eight guaranteed tangle-free models in affordable price ranges, all backed by tough 10-disc front drags and Hannon’s secret lifetime lubricant for limitless tension and ultra-smooth performance in fighting the biggest game fish. (WaveSpinReel.com)
The latest technological toy can be a big hit even for fishing. GPS units are a great option. “Whether handheld or fix-mount models, these devices provide geographic data that helps anglers locate fishing spots.“ (BassPro.com)
Ice Armor Fishing Suits, windproof, waterproof, breathable fabric, padded knees and seat, wrist and ankle-tightening system, warm tricot lining, hand-warming pockets. Great for December fishing. (fishy gifts.com)
Personal creations.com has a wide selection of affordable, albeit gimmicky, gifts. Some good stocking stuffers.
