rfrazier Posted October 9, 2007 Posted October 9, 2007 baitmonkey just grabbed me by the balls. ***... and the wait begins, christmas t-minus 6 days! Quote
jb_adams Posted October 9, 2007 Posted October 9, 2007 My wife continues to ask, "why do you think you need all of those baits? You have so many now you can't use them all." or "why do you think you need a new rod? You already have a closet full of them." I try to explain to her and by the time I'm through stumbling with an answer, she has me confused. This past weekend, I got up early, went fishing around 6:00AM, fished till 3:00. Came home, ate dinner, and then went night fishing till 2AM. Yep, it's all an obcession and addiction. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted October 9, 2007 Super User Posted October 9, 2007 I am not afflicted... The only baits/ lures I have bought this year were on sale or were a new class of lure (swimmbaits, two types of soft platics, jigs and trailers and a few Yo-Zuri Ratl'N Vibes). Well, then I bought a couple of reels, but they're "pre-loved" and that "required" a new rod (which was one of the Avids on sale)...So maybe I still NEED another rod... But as far as I'm concerned, none of that counts... I have no addiction and can stop anytime... I am not afflicted. The Bait Monkey does not influence me. I am not afflicted...I am not addicted... : Quote
Super User grimlin Posted October 9, 2007 Super User Posted October 9, 2007 "on sale" ;D I think i buy more stuff and spend more money when i find those words instead of regular price items.I'm just glad nobody puts "everything's on sale" or we'd have a big problem. Quote
Super User FishTank Posted October 9, 2007 Super User Posted October 9, 2007 It has got to stop sometime, right? It has reached the point were my kids are telling me, "No more fishing stuff!!!!!". My wife has given up. But I am not as bad as my fishing buddy. He was a chain smoker for years and decided to quit. He then saved all the money he would have spent on smokes, insurance, etc. for a new Daiwa Steez and a G. Loomis MBR783C GLX. Well a year or so has passed since his purchase and he has not smoked since but he'll spend about $30-$50 a week on Lucky Craft, Megabass, or Rapala lures. He won't stop. The bait monkey has replaced his Camels with some pretty sweet equipment. Quote
