arghhh!!! the bait monkey attacked me

zooker · 07-06-07, 09:10 PM

there i was in the tackle shop minding my own business, picking up a 6 pack of red bull before heading to work. tring to mentally prepare for the bull sh!t i have to deal with..and all of a sudden the monkey was on me like green on money...

it was a long, hard fought battle in which i was forced to picked up a poes 300,a lucky craft d-12,a matzuo depth charger,a big bomber fat free shad-it's on a diet-and for some reason i had a rod prop stick -extendable- but i rarely bank fish..

umm i think i was tring to fight him off with it..

than just as sudden as the attack happened it quite..ok so i was $50 lighter but dang...

ToPwAt'R GuY · 07-06-07, 10:32 PM

It's ok Zook. That baitmonkey gets to the best of us.

bassfisher02 · 07-06-07, 11:33 PM

The baitmonkey is going to have a field day when i get done putting a new audio/sound system in my car... once all that is paid for, new rod, new reel, going to have a tackle box clearout and restock, both salt and freshwater, more powerpro, the list goes on and on and on... i've even had my eye on a fishing kayak... but shhh the baitmonkey hasnt found out yet. :x

FlyRod · 07-07-07, 07:24 AM

Zookersquatch,

Now where are you gonna stow all that stuff in the good ship "Leakin' Lena"

You may have to toss some of your Flying Lures and Banjo Minnows

Oh, the humanity

As for me, there's one day left on Academy's "Rod Riot" sale and one of the local stores carries the Falcon Caras so well as the Lowriders and Team AllStars...hmmm. All rods 80.99-109.99 are now 69.99 and the 110.99-149.99 ones are 99.99, BTW.

Hi ho, hi ho, it's off to spend I go.

JB · 07-07-07, 05:49 PM

zooker,
Ya have to listen and obey when the baitmonkey picks your brain, after
all he has a brain of his own, and will direct you to luckys all day long!

crab · 07-07-07, 06:53 PM

Well he got me today also Zook! I went to buy some kahle style hooks and ended up with 5 packs of kahle Gammies and 3 packs of Lazer sharp. Still not to bad and then he spyed a 14.5 quart(5galllon bucket) cool bubbles so my cash went from 20.00 to 20.00 plus another 52.00 for the cool bubbles. But I can use it for catfishin,crappie,sauger and at the beach for my mud minnows while im flounder fishing. Hell I got to admit I love the baitmonkey!

Hi ho, hi ho, it's off to spend I go.

Update: Well, I did NOT buy (yet another) rod, and didn't even make it to Academy.
On the other hand, the "distraction" was, well...Deeeeeelightful.
The burgers weren't bad either...with bacon and cheddar chizz! Home made fries and iced tea wit dat too, excellent! (It was the Haagen-Dazs Triple Chocolate that caused the problem.)

It was worse than you can imagine, but it had nothing to do with the porcelain facility. The VERY select few that know what happened found it hilarious. Maybe someday I will.

bassnman30 · 07-11-07, 06:01 PM

Last week I spent over $360.00 at bass pro
New butt seat
New rod
Alot of baits etc...

lizardsrule · 07-12-07, 08:47 PM

Sunday $89. Today $300. All except $100 was for baits, like I need more, and the $100 was to use the Expeditor service from GLoomis for 2 broken rods($50 each). Man I love the monkey, he's my freind forever and ever.

brushhog · 07-13-07, 04:53 AM

I've noticed a strange correlation with the monkey - the more I fish the more he gets me... No wait, when I don't fish he gets me just as badly...Ahhh the monkey owns me.... Help....

Wishing2BFishing · 07-13-07, 11:53 AM

Brushog, I am with you . . . everytime I get out fishin', I usually realize that I need something new and get all excited and fuzzy inside about buying stuff. I think the baitmonkey really thrives the day after a fishin excursion.

patchino22 · 07-13-07, 02:38 PM

Went to but some 3/0 gammy's (for $2.79 at Dicks), came out with an EagleClaw 320 fish finder ($165).......oh yeah, got the hooks too. It was like I was in a trance or some type of peyote sweat......the next thing I new, I was back in the car and trying to figure out how I was going to make rent next month. Maybe the bait monkey will chip in

angelus40 · 07-13-07, 02:52 PM

was at dicks... bait monkey was nice to me... he tryed to tempt me but failed to do so

MississippiBoy · 07-13-07, 05:48 PM

He bit me, too. Went to Wal-mart for some 6" blue flake worms, walked out with a 7' Berkley Cherrywood rod, plus the worms. Ah well, what's $45?

FlyRod · 07-13-07, 07:27 PM

Well the rod sale at Academy is past but, undaunted, I made my way to Sportsman's W'house (The Best Little W'house In Texas!

) to seek two items.
Item One: Some little craw-type trailer to compliment a Peanut Butter/Jelly finesse jig. Result? The usual...nada.
Item Two: A 7' Med/Fast spin rod; either a St. Croix Avid, a Shimano Crucial, or a Loomis. Result? Same as above.
I bought one package of ZOOM U-tails in Natural Blue, two spools of P-Line FloroClear, two of P-line fluoro leader material, a package of AA batteries, and yet another Canyon Lake map.
I got home with all except the map 'cause I stopped at the pub and encountered a guy and his wife who will be on Canyon tomorrow. They bought a pontoon barge and had no idea about the layout of the lake. I gave them the map....oh well. I promised that tomorrow's partner (RedRooster) and I will check on them.
