fishing user avatarBassFishingMachine reply : 

Seems too good to be true IMO, im scared to make the order  :-?.


fishing user avatardman reply : 

add to that,  its free shipping


fishing user avatarJake. reply : 

Aren't those Lew's® brand lures?


fishing user avatarAvalonjohn44 reply : 

I ordered this same sale last year, and got some decent lures.  That little Lews Rattle Trap is on a $3 bait, but it is a great lure.  


fishing user avatarBaitMS reply : 

I ordered them last year too. And, if you have been wanting to order some lures now is the time because they will be included in the free shipping.


fishing user avatarroadwarrior reply : 

Nope.

I don't need five lures I will never fish, I already have a few...dozen(s)!    :;)

fishing user avatarBassChaser57 reply : 

You are right RW but I am going to order them as that will give me some cheap lures to loan to my partner while fishing or I can give them to my son to help fill his tackle box. You have to admit, it is a good deal.

fishing user avatardman reply : 

and like baitMS said:   It gives you free shipping for your whole order.  Stock up on all the stuff you need

It's not a good deal unless they are a good lures.

I suspect they are NOT!

"Great lures" are often on sale for less than five dollars, including tax.


fishing user avatarCFFF 1.5 reply : 

I just placed an order and added a couple of other things. I don't even care if the lures are crappy colors. It is gonna be like christmas opening up the box and finding out what you got. For five bucks it's worth the excitement. You never know you might catch you PB on one of those lures, all lures will eventually catch something.

The Lews rattler is a good bait, and you'll also probably get a BPS Deep Crank (which caught me 3 bass in one trip before I broke it off), a Square Lip BPS Crank, and a spinnerbait and jig of OK quality.  The three cranks are worth it to me.  I think BPS cranks are very under rated.


fishing user avatarCFFF 1.5 reply : 

I really the BPS XPS cranks they are good quality and have always run true out of the box. I mainly fish those and mann's cranks, but I would prefer BPS. Does anyone know who makes the BPS cranks.


fishing user avatarBassnajr reply : 

Hey all....

I saw this add in one of the BASS magazines. One thing....

When I click on the link, I don't see the secure "padlock" on the tool bar at the top. Maybe it appears when you check out??? Where does it say free shipping on anything else you order? If that's the case, it is a GREAT DEAL if you have other stuff you need. Be careful all!!!

No "padlock"..no secure site!

Yes,  you have to actually order it and get to the checkout screen for the Secure "padlock" screen

If you plan on ordering from BPS, then it's a great deal. Their base shipping charge is $4.95. If you order more than about $20 then they are starting to save you money. Could alway's donate the lure to the Salvation army, or Goodwill, then you would get a nice tax write off too boot.


fishing user avatarmayassa reply : 

Just placed my order for primer for my boat and a couple lures and of course shipping = FREE

stop complaining about the quality of lures, send them to me enjoy 5 dollar shipping!


fishing user avatarLCpointerKILLA reply : 

I would rather pay 20 bucks for a lure that is perfect running, durable finish, good colors, unique to pressured bass, strong lip that won't break if I feel like slapping weeds off, or whatever else I want/need for a particular application, body of water, or anything else. I would be mad if I wasted 5 dollars on that cheap junk and they gave me some ridiculous bubblegum or chartreuse color lure that has an ugly action, with hooks that will pull strait on a two pounder. Nothing like that would be of any use to me.

It's a bad deal.


fishing user avatar.dsaavedra. reply : 

im a sucker for free shipping so i think im gonna do it, hope the cranks are good, but mainly order for shipping.


fishing user avatarBassnajr reply : 

I wish I had the extra money to spend $20.00 on a lure...god bless you.

I think it's more the fisherman than the lure anyway...IMO. I went out with my cousin end of the season and forgot my tackle bag!! I fished the whole day with a NASTY colored deep diver crank bait with rusty treble hooks from the bottom of his tackle box. Cousin 0 bass.....me 3 bass, one a 3 lber. And I'm no pro, far from it..believe me!!!

PS Where does it say that it's $5.00 shipping for everything you order from BPS? Do you find out at check out? Thanks,

Standard minimum shipping charge is $4.95. When you look at your cart, it shows the purchase total, then shipping charges, then the bill total. I don't know what the exact scale is, but the more you spend, the higher the shipping charge, until you reach $12.95 in charges. From there, it remains $12.95 shipping, unless there are other charges like $6 for longer rods, or truck charges for heavy items, ect.... Those are seperate charges though, if you bought a $30 7 foot rod, it would have the $6 charge just like a $200 rod.

With this lure special, all you have to do is buy the $5 worth of lures, and your whole basic order is shipped free. I'm sure they still tack on the charges for oversized items and over weight items.


fishing user avatarcrankybaits reply : 

I bought these last year and they are all still in the original packaging, unopened.  They wouldn't be bad for letting kids fish with though.

WHATS YOUR POINT HERE?> When I buy and sell on the Flea Market and tubes longer than 5'8" are used they all charge extra ( From 4bucks postal to 5. and change to ups) why should it make a differenc what the rod costsa, when the vwendor is being charged shipping. So lets see i need 22 bucks worth of stuff and do not wnat to pay .495 in shipping so

I spend a gallon iof gas bak and forth to the local store Six Bucks , plus sales tax lets say another .60 cents WOW thats good ecnomics I will spend 1.60 more because I dont want to get OVERCHARGED FOR SHIPPING

My point is....He asked about the shipping charges, I tried to explain them.

I understand it's standard for retail stores to add on the $6 charge, but believe it or not, none of the 4 rods I bought over the 'Net had the added charge, they were included in the cost of the rod (different store). This also included a 15-20% discount on MSRP. Big time retail giants like Cabela's and BPS didn't get to be big out of luck, they know how to attract people with sales and "gimmicks". Part of the attraction of being a discount store is the fact you are able to set your own rules, and you can do things to undercut the big chain stores.


fishing user avatarguest reply : 

Every business figures their cost and then sets a % of profit they want to make off their cost. Thesecosts include; Whole sale Price, Advertising, Storage,rent and shipping then they set a price that will give them the % of profit from their investment. Some will break it down, some figure it right into the cost of the item and advertise Free shipping and handeling THEY ARE NOT EATING THOSE CHARGES

 Great Discounters like Reeds, etc. buy close out lots and seconds in some cases so who knows how cheap they get em, not my concern not my business I get to enoy the discounts they offer, but do not think for a minute any of em is not in it for the $$$$$. Ain't no such thing as a free lunch in America!!!!!!!!

That was my original post I guess some people can't read ::)

So this will be my last post for deals on what I think is a good deal that people might like.  

And Yes I meant if you didn't want the lures just think of it as five dollar shipping on everything else you buy.  

And even my Magabass lures needs tuned.  I would love to have a cheap 20 dollar lure that alway ran true ;D ;D ;D

Must be one of those special lures from K-Mart ;)

Sorry, but you will be charged shipping if you order other items with the 5 for $5 baits.  It will not show up in you cart at checkout or on the order form you can print at the end of the order.  But there is a note at the bottom of the order form printed "Additional funds may be required if additional shipping charges apply.  You will be notified if charges exceed $10.".

In my case I was paying with Reward Points and when I looked the next day, I saw they had added the additional shipping to the points they withdrew.  As always, there ain't no free lunch or free shipping!

Actually, Lew's lures are pretty good.  Their minnows and cranks (especailly the shallow runners) are very good.  The hooks are too small, though, so order some larger replacements.

Odd my order was 63 bucks and shipping was of course free!

No addition to my card or on the confirmation e-mail


fishing user avatarJeff_NHBA reply : 

I spoke to a service rep on friday about the 5 for 5 with free shipping.  She said there is a glitch in the system that will charge for the shipping but if you call them they will refund your 4.95 for shipping.  Kind of a moot point right now anyway as they were sold out.  She said to try back in a few days.

Not sure if this was addressed at me, but I was only informing people what happened in my case and that the shipping may not be free. But I will moan and groan about people that tend to jump out a little quick.

Recieved mine friday

1 BPS Tourney Special popper in Tennessee shad

1 BPS Tourney Special lipless crank in chrome blue back

1 BPS Tourney Special minnow in chrome black back

1 BPS Tourney Special crankbait in chart black back

1 BPS Tourney Special crankbait in firetiger

I believe these are the same baits I recieved last year...these are on the small side...might work good pond fishing or river smallies..

I plan on giving mine to my kid which should make her very happy


fishing user avatarBassnajr reply : 

Hey all....

One thing about BPS....

Even if you order from the catalog or online they are really slow. Too slow if you ask me. But they have many things online that they don't have in the Foxboro, MA store. They haven't re-stocked since they opened the store last fall. Very discouraging.

Also, the offer EXPEDITED shipping, for an additional fee of course. So if you don't pay the extra...expect 1 to 2 weeks. For the "free" offers...God only knows!!!
