Super User KU_Bassmaster. Posted December 15, 2005 Super User Posted December 15, 2005 The little voice in your head that tells you to .............. BUY, BUY, BUY, BUY. It convinces you that you NEED all this fishing stuff. Every fisherman has it in them. Quote
Super User KU_Bassmaster. Posted December 15, 2005 Super User Posted December 15, 2005 And yes, you should be afraid. He is known for going absolutely nuts when he is out of his cage. Quote

It convinces you that you NEED all this fishing stuff. Every fisherman has it in them. Oh, that's what the bait monkey is. Thanks for the clarification. And by the way, I understand bait-monkeyese very well and didn't even know it ;D. He's always tricking me into buying that stuff I NEED! Quote
Super User Bankbeater Posted December 15, 2005 Super User Posted December 15, 2005 It is like an addiction. Once you see something new on the company web page, you cannot stop thinking about it. The Baitmonkey just keeps gnawing at you until you make that purchase. Quote

FALCON Posted December 15, 2005 Posted December 15, 2005 I UNDERSTAND YOU CAN CATCH THAT DREADED DISEASE "FISHING POX" FROM THE BAIT MONKEY. I HAVE A SEVERE CASE RIGHT NOW AND IT'S ONLY DECEMBER. I HAVE UNTIL APRIL BEFORE I CAN CURE IT. Quote
Guest the_muddy_man Posted December 15, 2005 Posted December 15, 2005 the bait monkey lives in our heads Its the voice that when your at Cabelas and you already have enough plastics to coat the world and it tells you to buy another tackle box to fit the next 20 bags of sluggos worms and lizards you NEED to buy now Or that rod and reel thats on sale and a new rack to put it on and your car insurance is due BAD MONKEY ;D : :-X ;D Quote
Low_Budget_Hooker Posted December 16, 2005 Posted December 16, 2005 Capt. G- You can spank that monkey if you please but guess what..........he likes it, grips on even stronger and starts whispering in your ear, "Hey you can get bass pro points if you apply for a bass pro visa, snicker , snicker,he he" Quote
Top Posted December 16, 2005 Posted December 16, 2005 yeah the Bait Monkey will get you good.... He just kicked my butt.... its terrible. My wife let me buy my own Christmas present so I have an invoice sitting right here for 288.18 and that was with free shipping and a 5% discount *sigh* It placed the order the 12th and I have been checking every couple of hours since then to see the "progress" of my order... just today it got shipped Now I have to wait for UPS to update so I can figure out when my new pole and reel will be delivered..

Cajun1977 Posted December 16, 2005 Posted December 16, 2005 dont even think about running and hiding from the monkey either that little sucker hide in my suitcase and followed me all the way to japan be afraid be very afraid Quote
Capt. George Posted December 16, 2005 Posted December 16, 2005 Real bad now that you can get anything on line....I'm afraid I'm gonna wear myself out... Charlie Moore? There was an old timer in R.I. known for his rods, I believe his name was Charlie Murat?? remember or are you also toooooooo young? Also a character that was kind of adopted by Murat found his way to the Cape from R.I. Bobby (can't remember last name) known as Top Knot :...totally nuts. First time I met him on Cape told I was going to rip his wooden leg off and beat him with it >...he was raving, actually scared me...funny man on the beach! Maybe I'll go back to "spanking the monkey" Did you know there is still a law on the books that allows residents of Massachusetts to shoot anyone trying to cross the border, at night, from R.I. No kidding, it was there up until a few years ago ... Ahh, our founding fathers had the right idea...Wish I could get to Federal Hill right now for some good bread and sausage... later george Quote
Super User Raul Posted December 16, 2005 Super User Posted December 16, 2005 dont even think about running and hiding from the monkey either that little sucker hide in my suitcase and followed me all the way to japan be afraid be very afraid He didn 't follow you all the way to Japan............ he lives there ! Like a lamb on it 's way to the slaughter house, that how I can describe that trip to Japan. Quote
Guest avid Posted December 16, 2005 Posted December 16, 2005 Here is an example of the bait monkey at work. I told my kids who are adults that I expect a high quality bass lure as a presant for every gift giving holiday. I don't want no stinkin ties, or boots, or shirts, or nuttin but BASS LURES - GET IT ????? Quote
Super User Raul Posted December 16, 2005 Super User Posted December 16, 2005 Just let me give an example on how terrible the BaitMonkey is: My daughter is 1 year old so she needs anywhere from 2-4 disposable daipers every day, me spending good bucks in something my kid is going to pee and dump on and then that goes to the trash can ? no way no how; Darling, get those cheap ones ! I need the extra money for lures. Man, that 's sad ! Quote
SCarter Posted December 16, 2005 Posted December 16, 2005 I'm new here, What is the bait monkey? Is it something I should be afraid of? :-/ Bait Monkey has no scrupples. viscous littl eanimal with no known cure. Yes be very afraid. Only thing I fear more is my wife after a trip to BPS. Quote
Peter E. Posted December 16, 2005 Posted December 16, 2005 I have developed a close relation ship to the bait monkey and so far I am always broke and yet happy. Peter Quote
GobbleDog Posted December 16, 2005 Posted December 16, 2005 I'm on the verge of ordering $100 worth of lures on-line. Sadly, I don't need any of em. I just found a bunch of cool looking bug lures that would make a nice addition to my collection. My name is GobbleDog... and I'm a lure buy'n fishaholic. :-[ Quote
