WI_Angler1989 Posted February 24, 2016 Posted February 24, 2016 I think my girlfriend is working for the Bait Monkey. We just did our taxes and I'm getting a bit more than expected, so naturally I said I should buy a new 2016 Legend Elite spinning rod. Her response....."no you have to buy a new shimano stradic first." See?!?!? Either way.....major gf points for telling me to BUY the 200$ reel....not, "no don't buy it...." 4 Quote

Props for her even knowing the names! She would probably look great on a new boat too I bet. Quote

My wife actually talked me into buying my boat because she thought my last one was too small. She even rode with me the 14 hour round trip to go get it. I already bought it once, but decided I wanted my 9" Slammer to have a new look. Thanks to @Doc-Drew, it now has a nice, new paint job that should get all the big girls attention. 7 Quote
Super User Master Bait'r Posted February 24, 2016 Author Super User Posted February 24, 2016 Wow I have been on a tackle buying spree lately. It's like the more the skiing season depresses me, the more the stoke just transfers over to fishing. Should be able to finish up my new canoe's rod holders today too... It's good to have high quality distractions when your luck is down. 2 Quote

MDBowHunter Posted February 24, 2016 Posted February 24, 2016 I hated to do it but I had a gift card to burn so I went BPS today and this is what came home with me. Well minus the Dora the Explorer fishing rod I bought for my granddaughter 3 Quote

Along with all the other stuff I just bought. 1 Quote

GoCougs14 Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 Bought my first Lucky Craft Pointer today. Man these things are works of art. Found a 78sp in Rainbow Trout at one of the local sporting goods stores on clearance, which will be perfect because ever reservoir around me is stocked with them Tl;dr: LC pointers look just as good in person! 2 Quote
