It's more beautiful than I imagined. I don't even miss those fingers.

Now that's funny, but that's not funny...lol. Enjoy.

The bait monkey found its way into my wallet this week on a few occasions.  

 

• Monday was 5 of the Crucial rods at Dick's for $42.  
• Then on Tuesday I had to place an order at TW for some items like Tatsu line, Jackall Binsky, and 3 Boze Sumo frogs.  When I saw the site the next day the Boze frogs we marked down to $1.98.  They kindly provided me a rebate in the form of a gift certificate.  That got spent the following day for 15 packs of Wave Tiki worms, 3 of the War Eagle Twin arm spinnerbaits, 2 spools of Sunline Super Natural 14# line, and 4 more of the Boze Sumo frogs.

 

Now, I can officially start saving money towards some reels - Daiwa SS SV, or some of the PXL-R's that on on sale.

 

The bait monkey can leave me alone for a while.

The question is to give in to the bait monkey and order my BBZ1 Rat from TW which will lead to additional purchases of tackle I "need". I already have way too much. (Side thought, a form post of your tackle?) I actually would like to see that post and seeing if anyone else is a tackle hoarder.

You obviously don't have too much tackle since you don't have that BBZ 1 ratio, yet.

I have the 4 & 6 in BBZ1 Shad. I just seen the rat now and wondering. I think it would be a killer for big northern and Muskie on a couple lakes I fish.

I just ordered a bunch of the owner tackle warhouse sale gear. 5 lipless cranks and 4 top waters.

Just got my tw order 5 rainbow trout owner lipless plus 4 clown also 8 top waters in golden shad. Plus a pack of each soft plastic that was on sale.

I'm still fighting through, haven't bought anything.....but it's getting real hard seeing a lot of boxing day deals!  I feel I may crack soon.  The Fenwick ET Smallmouth at 70 bucks looks tooooo..freaking, tempting!

Now i may be getting a tatula reel and rod also. The bait monkey strong in this one

To buy or not to buy

To buy or not to buy

.....that is the question.

Hootie,

Stay tuned for the answer.

I have this itch to place an order on TW... But I have this feeling when I do something I want will be left in the 25 days sale.

But when I do place it.. Hello new caster, soft plastics, and the last of my hard baits I have been eyeing.

Spent my TW gift cards in about 45 seconds last night lol

6XDs, 3XDs, dreamshots, crosstail shads, spinbait 90, lc wake 3.5, structure bugs, rage lobsters, gammy hooks

Im off to my local shop for some othrr stuff today...i added up what i have spent in the last month and it is appalling lol

I find it's best not to add it up or I will really begin to feel like I have a problem.

This happened to me with the Boze Sumo frogs, and they gave me a gift certificate for the price difference.

My name is Shawn and I have a problem.

Just spent my $150 TW gift cards. Which was still not enough and the shopping isn't done seeing as how some of the stuff I really wanted they are out of.

I can't complain too much.. I did get it on the black Friday sale, but the post sale was a bigger discount. Still a win because it was cheaper than gander, and most of what I have been getting my gander doesn't carry, or has extremely limited color selection.

Here is my advise...don't marry the first person that makes you happy (temp). My opinion is people don't change much from what they are or how they grew up. Find someone that understands who you are and that is not out to change who you are. Also it is great to compliment each other.

It's been said that men marry women, hoping that they won't change, and women marry men, hoping they will.

My high power gliding gizzard should be here today! Stoked

BTW, did you have an issue redeeming your GC?  I applied mine and it still hit my checking account for the full amount, even after it confirmed a $9 remaining balance.  Been on hold all morning with TW waiting for "the next available representative" ugh.  Edit:  They straightened it right out, but MAN they must have crazy calls coming in today- I was on the phone forever waiting.    

Nope..i had no issue...mine has a 61 cent remaining balance lol
