Are these two fellers kin?

Nah, jk. But I was really wondering...is the phrase "bait monkey" supposed to sound like "butt monkey" or is that just a coincidence?

Thats a Raul question ;D

Can't wait to hear Raul's answer to this one.

Nope they ain 't related in any way.

All the characters in this movie are fictional and do not represent living persons.  

the monkey once jumped on my butt and bit it until i grabbed that new rod i was drooling over, and paid for it after an hour of playing with it. wait that was saturday, and I disagree still hurts! good thing the wife didnt kick it when i brandished my new rod.

all i got was a "do you really need that, you only have two hands?" and the reply was "you only have 2 feet but you have 20 pairs of shoes!" we usually end on that note and just laugh!

yeah when I come home from Gander Mountain or Scheels. I just tell the wife... I bought some new "shoes" and she knows I bought a rod or reel. If I tell her I bought some ear rings she knows I bought either new bait or terminal tackle. works well... she very rarely gets upset unless I buy too many pair of shoes in a short period of time.
