Monkey = 3 part order

screwballl · 02-24-10, 09:00 PM

The monkey bit me, the order was placed Monday the 22nd... but the problem is that BPS shipped it in 3 parts, all 3 came from Springfield, MO.

The first pack arrived today via USPS

BPS $25 rod/reel combo, Stampede setup with 6'6" Medium Rod and I put my 6 lb Pline CX on it since this will be main panfish setup.

The second was shipped via FedEx and slated for delivery today but just checked the delivery confirmation page a bit ago it said the package just arrived in GA so delivery is tomorrow.

Third is a simple spool of 15 lb Pline CX which left MO Monday, just arrived in Des Moines IA today (same route the first package came) via USPS... so why would a larger item like a rod arrive 2 days later and the smallest item not arrive until 4-5 days later... this is why I hate when they ship USPS.

bah 3 items 3 different arrival days from a single order.

Just toss them all on UPS or FedEx and I tend to get it within 2-3 days from almost anywhere in the US

I will edit this when the other 2 arrive.

edit: also forgot about the lures I got... during the heat of the summer and into the fall, bass actively feed on bugs that fall into the water, so I decided to pick some of these up, 50 pack for $17 shipped (soft rubber dragonflies and I plan to find a way to get them to float).

Good haul there! I've never seen dragonflies before. They look very interesting.

The rod/reel monkey got me earlier this week for $100 and now the bait monkey got me for $50 more...

Ordered some
-Kick'N Bass Scent,
-Super Flukes,
-Ewg Treble hooks in red to replace the ones on some of my cranks,
-Stacy King 31Pc Jig set (all my previous jigs are at the bottom of a local pond when oldest daughter dumped them over),
-1/4oz Redeye Shad lipless crank (the type KVD used) in Sexy shad which is the one that resembles the bream here the closest and also can stay above the vegetation on faster retrieves.

Fluke color and how I plan to fish it

Yep, the monkey has your number!

I like the dragon flies. I read a blog from Ike about them, but I have never seen them. Nice haul by the way SB.

Second pack arrived today via Fedex, the 7 ft tall box with my Pflueger combo... pictures to come.

screwballl · 02-27-10, 09:17 PM

Package #3 arrived today, the 12 lb Pline CX (thought I ordered 15 lb, may need to double check that).

I will have them all out tomorrow so will try to get a picture

Also my tightlines lure order came in... so the other 7 orders I am still waiting on.
