Back from long hiatus on this forum.

Had to take a break and go back to my "Fall Hobby" - Archery/Bow Hunting. Nope I haven't gotten one yet :(. But I just had to check this thread out to see who got "hooked" by the Monkey bait :)
Sorry you haven't got a deer yet hope you get one soon. Stop back by when you get time but don't hang out in this thread for long or that monkey will get you.  lo lo

No one got the money bait lately?

Got some from Tacklewarehouse since my wife got me some gift cards for the holidays.

Powell Max 3D Spinning Rod 7'1" Light. 
Powell Max 3D Mag Bass Casting Rod 7'3" Mag Hvy Frog
Several Trokar Hooks
Two casting rod sleeves

The main thing that I like is this:

Cal Coast Fishing Rod Mule (40 bucks)

I tried this the other day and it's a MUST for everyone to have. It will make your life easier to transport. 

This is not me, I am not that SKINNY !

For a not real expensive rod that Powell 7'3" Mag Hvy Frog is a pretty good rod. I picked one up used and its stout. Doesn't have quite the tip for casting some really light small frogs but definitely a stick for the full size frogs or toads and pitching a 1/2oz or bigger jig if you like. Its actually pretty decent for pitchin jigs I was kind of surprised.

Yeah - got that for King Daddy Frogs that I am gotta try it out. ~c~

Was only 99 bucks so it doesn't hurt. If I dont like it. I can always sell it on the BBC forum.

I almost pulled the trigger on that frog rod but was concerned that it would be too stiff for my taste. That sale was a good deal!

I have orders from Monster, Doc Irving, and Jann's on the way right now, plus I ordered a bunch of jig heads from a guy in Tennessee (cheaper for what I need than buying ANOTHER mold, sheesh!). And this week I'm gonna try to get my act together for the folks on the forum that donated to the Adopt A Family Raffle. Once I get all of their lure preferences then I'll make what will probably be a HUGE order. This Bait Monkey/Tackle Ape stuff is SERIOUS 'roun these parts.

I have a small amount of money available at the moment. Two things holding me back right now are
1) I don't know if I could talk the boss lady into agreeing, and
2) with the cancer diagnosis I don't know what treatment is going to be yet so if I end up in bed for a month or so I'm going to need to get a new laptop so I can stay connected with UB.

I started putting the money away for the purpose of a laptop if I need it, but I know Joe has one of the mis-labeled 736 CB Glass rods and that is calling my name. I'm sure he would make me a good deal that we could both live with but I may not end up being able to fish until June or July anyway so I can't see spending the $$ now for a rod I may not even get to use this year.

But I really want it. Damn monkey!!!  :P

Joe, you doing installment plans?   lo lo lo

I am truly a lucky man- my wife doesn't care.

Could someone explain this Dobyns "mislabeled rod" deal I keep seeing?

On the Dobyns site, there are discounted rods that have been mislabeled
