Latest Tackle Purchase Thread (Bait Monkey Victim Support Group)

Once they dropped to 40% for the whole site I got the bad feeling they may be going out of business unless they're just dumping stock for a planned move. I'm not on Facebook or Twitter, but after a quick scan it doesn't appear like they're moving and they've been inactive on both since 11/19. Even during the 20% sales of years past I'd just randomly receive a package a couple weeks after ordering without ever receiving any notification, so you're probably just going to be pleasantly surprised when your order arrives one day soon. Hopefully.  

Upon ordering I fully expected the shipping to take a while. I've ordered from them in the past on BF and I think I recall just getting an order confirmation right when I bought it and then never get any sort of shipping/tracking info/confirmation. I think I actually had to call to get it sent to me. I don't expect anything weird going on and my package will probably show up in a week or so but it's irritating when they don't answer any e-mails or pick up their phone. Tried calling all day and nothing. 40% off SK/LC/Spro/Tungsten and other odds and ends was just way too good to pass up.

    This is an extension from the 'Picking Out New Baits' thread in which I said my wife and boy were bass bait shopping for my birthday.  They done good.

Just a little glide box stoke now that the limberlamber and the silent killer are in.

Nice collection. I fell into a great deal on a S Waver for $1. That single bait started it all for me. Now I have a good collection. One day i was on a private lake and there was a small little front moving it. It went from blue bird sky to dark and steady rain. I worked a S Waver over submerged vegetation and just hammered them, best 5 went around 17 lbs. Without a doubt the funnest 1 an a half stretch of fishing iv had.

Thanks! It's definitely an exciting way to fish. Once I got hit a couple times there was no going back. I have to keep them reasonably sized as I have no dedicated swimbait setup but I really enjoy using them.

No doubt that's irritating, especially since they've already taken your money! Those 40% off deals were ridiculous when they still had decent stock of very desirable higher end tackle and if their shipping had stayed free >$50 I'd probably find plenty to order even this morning. Hopefully they don't go out of business because you can always count on 20-25% off for pretty much every big holiday.

I love my Spinnerbait Special. If you got it where I think you did you got a great price on it. Enjoy.

Did a little Christmas shopping for myself today, bought 2 halo twilight rods off TW, $60 a piece I couldn't resist!! And non fishing related 5" straight pipe for the ol duramax!

those halo rods are a really good deal but unfortunately at the moment i cant buy one.:(

I've heard mixed feelings about them but for the price I figured you can't beat it!

An Quantum Exo spinning reel, a Mojo Bass dropshot rod, and a Lews BB1 pro series all for almost half off at Scheels! Now if winter can hurry up and go away.

I'm on the wagon, I'm on the wagon, I'm really on the wagon.

No I'm really on the wagon for sure.

Till I pay my plastic off. More Bizzbaits, Thailand topwater lures for the kids they haven't seen mine yet.

I saved money on plastics at Bizzbaits. Went to burger king and didn't eat the dollar menu. I got a whooper. Even my dog got a cheeseburger. Can't go home with a burger bag and get by him. He understands cheeseburger.

Bill man....on the rare occasion I get fast food, I always give my dog the last fry. It's my way of saying I got you bro. Leave that junk alone though. These days the price you pay for fast food you could go to the supermarket and get some decent food for the same price.

Those topwaters look good too!

Been reading this thread the last few days. How therapeutic. I had no idea this existed. Will certainly have some stuff to share, but if only I'd stumbled in a year or two ago...I might've been saved.

i got them to keep all my baits from snagging more than the safety aspect, but that's an added bonus!

Looks like caps for treble hooks so they won't snag on seats in your vehicle or boat or dog or your hand etc etc lol

double tap. Above comment was for the question about purple and green bags
