    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.

Add 5 packs of VMC spinshot to my list lol

All i really need now is some braid and some ewg hooks...but i know there will be more stuff i dont need mixed in lol

If I am correct those are the spinning trebles? Shoot me a review of them and how well they work.

No...they are dropshot hooks...i messed with em last yeah and really liked em. Sticky sharp and tough!

Might pick up a pack. I have already been a Mustad user, but love to look at other makers with positive remarks from fellow users.

Went on to eBay and tackle warehouse... Ebay 25 pack each of Gamagatsu hooks 3/0 EWG, 4/0 E WG, 5/0 EWG. Tackle warehouse I bought a 25 pack of 2/0 skip gap hooks, Vike Tungeston dropshit weights, in size 1/8, 3/8, and 1/4 for grass and rock, hook it hook organizers X3, Bass Mafia Bate Casket (clear), football head Carolina weights in sizes 1/4, 3/8, and 1/2, t stops, a few more specialty weights... In total the bait monkey stole about 200 out of my wallet. Greedy bait monkey... But at least my terminal tackle is pretty much set up...

 

I would consider being set up this early in the bait money's active season a very dangerous and potentially costly scenario! I'm always planning on being set up.... until I see that crankbait lot for sale in the flea market, then all bets are off and before I know it, that stinking monkey snakes me again!

Case in point: masterbass's TDZ 105 HL is now my TDZ... Cheeky little monkeypost-49738-0-12813000-1418618891_thumb.p...

Vike Tungeston dropshit weights, in size 1/8, 3/8, and 1/4 for grass and rock,

I've just gone crazy in the last 2 weeks.... and i'm not even including the stuff the wife bought me on the TW Black Friday sale....

Last couple weeks look like this:

 

LC Pointers

Megabass Vision jerkbait

Megabass PopX

(6x) Lucky Craft RTO cranks (thanks to Hootie for the BPS deal)

(9x) siebert jigs

A total of 1800 yards of yo-zuri hybrid

Shimano Citica 201G6

Lew's Tournament Pro

 

now i just have to get the chance to fish it all!!!

Dropshot. Using a phone with tiny keys is a pain sometimes.

Only the terminal tackle is set up. I didn't say rods and reels or crainkbaits. Lol

Tataula

Daiwa Px Type R

Dobyns Champ 703c

and i have a $100 gift card to TW i managed to get for free thanks to some useful info on here!! Not sure what to get yet! I will be done for awhile though, its the kids turn now!

Recently, the baitmonkey has gotten me for a beautiful Daiwa Fuego, and just today on my drive home I ended up getting 5 Crucial rods at a massive discount at DSG.

well I did it again last night, picked up a Lews BB1 cranking reel, some TW shirts, hat, and reel covers. all in all since thanksgiving I've probably spent close to $500 plus on fishing gear... my wife is not too pleased with me

easy solution - divorce

Just kidding. That's why I'm trying to spoil myself now. Once a wife is in the picture I think my spending habits will die.

Gl trying to catch a deal. I like to wait until summer and hit CL. Always someone wanting to get out of fishing..

Dang eBay

I have a habit of searching and doing ending soonest in hopes of snagging a crazy deal

As always I see one and the thrill of a bargain over shadows the fact that I don't need it

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