Default Monkey got me but it wasn't all my fault

My buddy had a brand new Daiwa Zillion 6'9" MH rod for sale at a price I couldn't pass up. Of course it needed a new reel to go on it so I figured it was time to try an Abu Garcia Orra SX I'd been eyeballing for a while. Since I'm ordering a reel may as well get some lures. OH well..... Pics from the iPhone tell the rest of the story.





Rod and reel spooled with line only .79 of a pound. NICE it feels.

Must be having something to do with Fridays before a good fishing weekend.

Just found out I'm working 12.5 hrs Saturday though so I have to wait till Sunday to go fishing.

The monkey strikes again.

Although, I think that rod needs a Zillion reel on it!

x2! A Zillion would definitely look and feel better (monkey cage rattlin' in the background).

It seems a lot of monkeys have been busy lately. Including mine.
