This particular device does not have nap server enabled. It's my core router 
facing my upstream. I have a filter rule to drop port 123 but it isn't curbing 
the effects. My whole pipe of course is being eaten up. I have currently 
disabled that interface and am running on my secondary connection. It did this 
last night from 1 am to 3 am my time and started right at 1 am again today. 
Also for about 10 to 15 minutes right around 5 pm this evening.

Is your NTP Server on your Mikrotik being abused as NTP DDOS Amplificator?
Then mikrotik should urgently fix the monlist command. (I have not yet checked 
if it supports monlist, as I don't use my mikrotik as an NTP server).

Or is the monlist command of some devices behind your mikrotik being abused as 
DDOS amplificator? So please fix those devices, disable the monlist command or 
restrict it to your networks.

For ISC ntpd, just add 'disable monitor' to ntp.conf

Or do you want to do deep packed inspection with your mikrotik to filter out 
monlist requests from outside your network?

You probably have to start here:
http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:IP/Firewall/L7
http://l7-filter.sourceforge.net/layer7-protocols/protocols/ntp.pat

But keep in mind, if you manage to match the monlist command inside the NTP 
packets, that will for sure suck up lots of your mikrotik CPU ressources. I 
would go for fixing your NTP servers instead of trying to block those packets 
with deep inspection rules.
