Slip bobber stuff.....the bobbers.....bobber stops, split shot, hooks, etc.
Or...if you want to get spendy quick. B-Fish-N plastics (3 and 4" of varying styles), jigs of various sizes/colors and then crank baits. Flicker shads, wally divers, jigging raps, etc etc. You'll blow through $75 in a heartbeat :)

Sometimes I wish I had a cupboard or something full of stuff like hooks, sinkers, bobbers and bobber stops, swivels, snaps, line, leaders, etc. Better yet, a pegboard like at the baitshop fully stocked with the above.

1. Do you have a depth finder? You can do a search for threads on making a portable depth finder. $75 won't cover it entirely, but it'll pay about 1/2 or a little more, depending on the depth finder you want. You could always buy mine if you want. If you're in the twin cities, I'd let you borrow it.
2. Fishing success is often directly proportional to the amount of time you spend with your bait in the water. Perhaps you could spend the $75 on a comfortable seat back.
3. Drift sock. I've often wanted a drift sock for my canoe in the boundary waters to control my drift speed.
4. License and entry permit.
5. Do they make some sort of app for depth charts for the boundary waters? That would be nice to have.
6. Put it towards lighter gear. Better fishing is often found in more remote lakes, or the Quetico, and the lighter you are, the quicker/easier, you can get to those lakes.
7. Put it towards a guide on Sag or Seagul, etc. Mike Berg's Seagull Creek Fishing Camp comes to mind. He's put an awful lot of clients on 8 lb walleyes. They have a Hawg board, perhaps you can get your name on it.
8. Put it towards a bunk house rental.
9. Put it towards a trip to Canoecopia in March, and go to their fishing seminars.
10. Put it towards a graphite mount of the best fish you've caught. I've heard nothing but good things about Artistic Anglers in Duluth.

If it's a gift from kids, I know I'd like to spend it on something that I won't lose easily (hooks, bobbers, etc). I'd put it towards reel or rod or net, or fishing hat or something that hopefully I'd have for awhile and appreciate the gift. Or take the money and bet against the Vikings and buy a new car with the winnings :-)
