Congrats on the reel, bet youll love it. I cant buy anything now, between v day and my friends wedding.....im broke!


fishing user avatar0119 reply : 

Congrats on the reel, bet you got a good deal with all the trade-in, coupons they were handing out etc.

 

I took Roadwarriors comment that I was an old stick in the mud to heart and picked up a Revo S and matching Veritas rod.  Too good a deal to pass up with $15 trade in value, 10% off, quadruple preferred customer points and $20 off the rod.

Thanks alot! I looked extensively at a lot of reels. They had a shimano and abu garcia rep there. Talked to both. When I picked up the abu revo Mgx I knew I wanted it. Congrats on wedding! I will purchase my tackle items when my tax return comes in. Happy shopping!

Yes thank you. That's what I said when I touched it. I had the money and couldn't pass up the opportunity.  Im going to pair it with a St. Croix Legend Xtreme MHM 7'2 Rod.


fishing user avatarnew2BC4bass reply : 

Congrats on the new reel.  I'm sure you will love it.

 

No BPS around here.  Had hoped to pick up a few plastics at one of the Online sales.  Some tungsten wights and swimbait heads as well.  Last 2 weeks I have purchased 4 rods and 2 reels plus a few smaller items.  Well the macro lens wasn't a small item, but wanted to be able to take closeups since I plan on starting to do some of my own reel maintenance.  Guess the plastics and weights will have to wait for the next sale.  :(


fishing user avatardias869 reply : 

That's going to be an awsome rod and reel combo, nice pick up.


fishing user avatarGreenstealth reply : 

Great great reel. I got one last year, Had a blast with it, I'm getting it tuned up as we speak. I bought the revo premier and a PQ. I wanted to get a 100 mgfv core and my crappy bps had none, nor did they have the regular 100, nor did they have a 50 other than the display model which they weren't willing to discount at all. I hate bps.If I didn't have a ton of gift cards from birthdays and christmas, I wouldn't shop there at all. It's hard to say no to a new premier and pq for $200. Btw my mgx (when it gets back) sits on a 6'8" mf xtreme. Ridiculous setup. Congrats on  your purchase you wont be dissapointed


fishing user avatarDarren. reply : 

Nice. Should serve the cause well!


fishing user avatarflyfisher reply : 

I went up today and picked up a PQ in the 4.7:1 ratio for cranking, some dt series rapalas and power pro. Place was packed for sure.

Don't worry about it come to the inlet and you can use one of mine.


fishing user avatarHanover_Yakker reply : 

I'm actually volunteering with the Central VA Heroes On the Water group at the local BPS here in Central VA.  I took a few minutes at the end of the day and snagged a few small terminal tackle items and some line but avoided any large purchases.  I figured I would snag a spool of the Seguar Kanzen braid and wanted to give it a try.  Also snagged some more PLine Flourclear and Yozuri Hybrid.


fishing user avatarfl_bass reply : 

I picked up a PQ reel, veritas rod and yo-zuri line. Bait monkey happy for now. Lol


fishing user avatarFlukeman reply : 

I was waiting for the rod trade in to go, but a friend talked me into riding along so he could buy some reels. He got 1 MGX and 3 Premiers (it was all the Premiers they had). I did check out that new Bionic baitcast combo after the conversation on here. I must say for $69 it felt like a nice set up, of course someone will have to fish it to really know. But for that price I think a guy starting out can't go wrong, and it may prove to be a great buy for experienced guys as well. the one I picked up was nicely balanced.

I picked up some Shad Raps, swimbait jigheads, tungsten bullet weights, XPS Floro, rod socks, and some Kermy's. I will be there again for the rod trade-in and my juniors are volenteering there the last weekend. So I am in for some more bait monkey time!


fishing user avatarBlues19 reply :

I would have waited for the rod trade in. But they were offering 4x rewards on Friday for Abu products.

fishing user avatarcoak reply : 

So far I've picked up a BPS Extreme casting reel in the 5:1 ratio.  I'm waiting for the rod trade in next week......it's either going to be a carrot stix ml or st. croix premier ml casting rod.  Still haven't made the decision......will wait to throw a reel on'em in store and see how they both feel in hand.

What Reel or Rod did you buy? or will be buying?

How was your drive? I went to the Gurnee BPS and the storm the prior night made for a long slow drive from Rockford.

Its nice and easy ride. Roads were clear. Gurnee BPS is much bigger than east peoria.

Thats how you do it. Congrats on getting a core. It just hasnt happened for me yet.


fishing user avatarjhoffman reply : 

Im going tomorrow, today is dragn. Its a good thing I dont live in the same town right now


fishing user avatarHeavyDluxe reply : 

First time to BPS, ever... The haul:

  • Two new spinning rods (7' MF & MHF Tourney Specials)
  • Two new spinning reels (Pflueger President 35-size and Trion 30-size)
  • Three bags of Stick-Os
  • A couple packs of Money Minnows
  • Sundry bargain cranks my son really wanted...

 

Plus, bless my soul, there's a Capriotti's near the BPS in Foxoboro, MA!  What an unexpected blessing!

 

Other than the plastics and the cranks, I don't think we capitalized on the sale... But, it was a ton of fun having a day out with the boy.  Wouldn't change it for the world.  

 

The two rods will get two Presidents (one from a Pflueger combo I bought last year and the new one), and the Trion will go on the soon-to-be reel-less Pflueger rod as an upgrade for my son this year.


fishing user avatarTiNuts reply : 

I picked up a Revo sx spinning reel and a 7'2" MF carbonlite rod. An Abu Cardinal S reel and a BPS microlite "glass" rod ultralight setup. A few bags of superflukes and a few bags of worms and some other misc. things.

I tried to convince my wife to buy me another baitcaster, but she wasn't having it.


fishing user avatarjhoffman reply : 

I came out the other day with

 

Lowrance Elite 4 - Navonics Map Card - Ram Mount

Ike Series Rapala DT 10

Wiggle Wart

Rage Tail Grubs

BPS Kermy Frog

Booyah Spinnerbait in sexy shad

Pumpkin Colored Grass Pigs

I wanted a sick fish a 5" but the shelves were cleared

3 spools of BPS braid - buy 2 get 1 in 50, 30, 20

2 marker bouys

BPS brand spot removers

2 -3700 series boxes, they were $3.33 I shouldve bought 10.

 

The combo I wanted wasnt offered in a lefty and they didnt have a single daiwa in the store on sale so they didnt get my money on that. As soon as I got home I remembered all kinds of stuff I forgot and had to make an order from TW. I also came home to my new rims/tires for the trailer and 5 - j9s that I had ordered.


fishing user avatarslonezp reply : 

I didn't get anything. My son called me up and said "Dad. I need 3 old reels and  a rod to trade in at the classic You've got all that crap in the garage so find me some". I found him what he wanted and he texted me from BPS $617 He really liked thay MGX but opted for a few Quantums. I beleive the rod trade in is still going on and he's getting another Veritas. That tax refund is going quick 


fishing user avatarjhoffman reply : 

My old lady texted me while I was there "how much did you spend"... i replied ..."$1200"...."Thats rediculous"... then I told her the truth lol
