Here's an invitation to post 'em up. I need help and I am sure a list developed by the members here could be of great use to many of us.

I have received several requests from family members for a wish list for the holidays. I'm not really in the need of anything I can think of off-hand. None that I'd ever ask for anyway . . .

What small-ish, fairly inexpensive things (Max of $25, preferably in the $10-$15 range) can you think of that every fisherman can use and will like?

Razor blades for your favorite razor, deodorant, and any batteries that you need.

I usually have 3 knives on my person when yak fishing. The one I use the most is my original cheap SS dive knife designed to be worn on my calf. Seems the easiest to grab and replace always on always out of the way. Some them are big and expensive. this one has a blade about 3.5" pretty easy to find cheaply, rough sharpen with a file every once in awhile and it'll cut anything.

Never have enough SS S clips. (Nite Ize S-Biners)

If you LOVE coffee, order a bag of House Blend from Verve. Usually shipped the day it's roasted, so don't order too early, I think it's the freshness that makes it the best I've ever had.

Plano boxes 9X7X2 single compartment No. 23715

Reading glasses for knot tying.

Im always a fan of plano boxes, pliers, and most terminal tackle. Even swimbaits etc. Most come under 10 dollars and are easy to pick

Stainless S clips are a great idea, Dale L, any brand name on the knives you suggested?
