This year I got a new fly fishing rod, which was nice, but I think I'm asking for one of these next year:

Personally I'd like the Nomad 1000 model. I can learn to skipper it myself, and it dives to 300 meters.

Or maybe I should get the Pheonix 1000, and then all my friends at subsim can rotate as crew! :arrgh!:
