Oh, the Bait Monkey...He caught up with me earlier this Spring. I picked up:

1 Curado 200E7

1 Symetre 2500

1 MH Crucial

1 MH Compre

New seat and pedestal

30 bags of plastics

15 cranks

20 jigs

2 1/4 spools of Yo-Zuri Hybrid

2 spools of Power-Pro

Stocked up on the basics: hooks, sinkers, jig heads

Misc. "needs" for the boat

If it weren't for the Compre/Symetre going to my wife, I may still be sleeping outside. I'm still working on her for a crankbait setup.

HOW, mine actually encourages me to buy whatever gear i want/need!!!!

I bought it all within a very short period of time. Normally, she's very supportive. I wouldn't have my boat if it weren't for her. She found it.

Made it to the Memphis store tonight.  The 7:00pm closing time makes it difficult, but I spent $30 and ended up with a few packs of Rage Tail craws, a pack of 7" annies, some net bait baby paca craws, berklely finesse worms, hooks, and a tube of megastrike!

The Monkey told me we need to make another

trip to Sportsmen's Warehouse Saturday or Sunday

for the closing!

Do we live close to each other?-- He's a fast son of a gun..  He said the same thing to me about my Warehouse this weekend..

I had to fly down to Memphis to make it to a Sportsmans Warehouse!!!

Rage tails at $2.75 a pack are hard to beat though!!

;D ;D

d**n...I guess now I have to stop by Boaters World (for the 6th time) for their going out of business sale. Wish me luck.

Are you sure they're going out of business? I checked the website and couldn't find a thing about it. I've got one in my area that I'd make the trip to if they have some good deals.

Click on any item on their website, I'll bet it's out of stock!

Not sure if Fleet Farm is a regional company or national, but ours had a great little clearance sale.

A bunch of Rage stuff was on clearance, so I picked up some frogs and craws for $3 each.  Also got a couple booyah bucktail jigs for $1.25, figuring if I don't like the bucktail I can give it a haircut.  Also some Strike King Bitsy jigs for $1.25 as well.  They had a lot of stuff, but I didn't want to go too crazy considering I have a TW shipment on the way too.

I was talking to my buddy today who owns the bait shop I frequent.

I think the bait monkey was there holding a gun to his head.

He was telling me about his sale.

2 for 1 Lucky crafts and smoking deals on his soft plastics and spinner baits.

I really don't "need" anything, but I will be paying him a visit on Saturday, and I have a funny feeling that it is going to be an expensive one.

I hope my wife isn't reading this.
