The Hookup Tackle has 20% for Memorial Day.  (Replenished my Whopper Plopper inventory :) )

 

My local Dick's Sporting Goods has a buy 3, get 3 free off their clearance rack. I was able to score some Yakima Bait Maglips in the 4.5 size for Fall Chinook Salmon in the rivers here in CA. Can't be it. They were already marked off 35% from MSRP, so the 3 free just sweetened the deal.

Where do you see that? At the top of their website it says 

  Quote

USE CODE "MEMDAY" FOR 20% OFF. EXPIRES 5/30/16

Also I got this today in a email. 

  Quote

Our previous Memorial Day Sale email mistakenly contained two different discount amounts. The correct code is "MEMDAY" for 20% off baits and swag. We apologize for any confusion our #SaleFAIL may have caused.

Thank you,

So how does the discount show, as you are going, or as you are checking out? That way I know if I have overspent or not lol. Also does the fish hound code work with the sale going on? Getting my order in tommorow night.

If it isn't "excluded" from the sale, it will apply when you put it in the cart. The fishhound code does not work with this sale.

The discount showed for me only when I went to "proceed to checkout". You can then back out and shop for more things. Fishound code worked also.  I can't honestly tell what's truly excluded -- the discount is very clearly applying to at least some items from the brands on the excluded list. 


fishing user avatarcgolf reply : 

Thanks everyone, a little less excited because some of my favorite brands I was going to stock up on aren't in yet and their dates have been sliding out. My goal is to have nothing that would be back ordered so that changes my order up quite a bit.


fishing user avatarCyacnba reply : 

Does the $5 off code still work for everyone at TW? I tried "FHABAQ214" and "FHABAQ216", but they don't work.

They almost always have decent deals in both the flyer and non-flyer sales that are consistent from store to store.  This week it includes:

  • $6 ea for Keitech Fat Impacts (2 or more)
  • $4 ea for Scatter Raps, all types (5 or more)
  • $10 for 3 SK Banshees (e.g. Red Eye Shads and buzzbaits)
  • Bogo for all clearance lures, when you get 6 
  • Some buy one, get second at 50% off - not sure which

fishing user avatarblckshirt98 reply : 

Cabela's Bargain Cave just put up Stradic FA Ci4+ reels marked down to $175.99-$191.99. Buy some gift cards online and save another 11-15% off of that price (though I just wiped a couple of places out of their e-gift cards).  $5 shipping too with $99 min purchase using the code "66hero".


fishing user avatarTorn Thumb reply : 

I managed to miss the keitech part though I haven't tried them yet, I may have to. The clearance section is terrible at my local store. Alot of stuff you can get cheaper online direct from the manufaturers, oddball stuff, ice fishing stuff, etc.

I tried them out a while back because they were on sale.  The good thing is they are as good as people say they are - maybe better.  I'm a rookie and doing great on them.  The bad thing is the price and how fragile they are, but DSG has frequent sales on them.  Last week they were buy 3 get 1.  Go for it.

fishing user avatarMassYak85 reply : 

Sports Authority is closing a bunch of stores and many have sales. Only like 10% off fishing gear at the one near me but hey, it's something. Their fishing selection is downright terrible but they do have some stuff like power pro line and gamakatsu hooks.

Cable's has the pfluegar president and tourney trail combo on sale for seventy dollars.  Given that the president is a great budget reel and is normally only ten to twenty dollars less than the combo on its own anyway, it's a great deal getting the rod for ten bucks.

And academy has the H2O mettle on sale for $49.99.  


fishing user avatarriverbasser reply : 

Anyone know anything about a 4th of July sale for BPS and TW? I know its still a few weeks off but really need another pro qualifier reel and a handful of deep cranks. Hoping to catch a sale

Wait, coupon for $10 off $25?  Where can I get one of those?!

I know the $10 off $50 for doing the survey promotion very well.  Too well in fact.  It's hard to spend less than about $30 in there where they have a good sale, and at that point, you'd be crazy not to spend an extra $10 to get $50 worth of stuff (sale price) for $40.

But $10 off each $25?

By the way this week DSG's BOGO 1/2 off extends to Strike King and Zoom in addition to the Rapalas and Keitechs mentioned.

I got some senkos from that sale too, but it was before they marked them down to $4 a bag. I paid $5 a bag but it was worth it because I got the good colors before they ran out (watermelon red, black and blue, green pumpkin, baby bass) :)

I bet they went fast. I passed one day, but it called me back a couple days later. The 7' M/F I wanted was gone and the one I bought was the last one here. They still had a few of the LTB's though. 


fishing user avatarj bab reply : 

I assume it's just the OKC location because they're doing a lot of rearranging of the store, but our Cabela's had some UNBELIEVABLE sales in fishing today... We're talking KVD jerkbaits for $1.88, war eagle jigs for $0.88, arashi crankbaits and sq bills for $3.88, arashi deep for $5.88, 10XD for $8.99, 8XD for $7.99, megabass knuckle for $6, vision 110+ for $15, etc... WOW! If I didn't restrain myself I would have spend a couple hundred bucks on stuff, but I already have more than I can fit in my tackle bag. I still left with a whole lot of goodies though (good colors too), so I'm happy!

edit: just figured that what I got today would have ran me about $200 on TW, I spent $80...

Now is the time to buy Baitcasting reels on Ebay.

You can buy a tatula brand new in a box from 2 years ago for $70. I have been seeing Aird's for $39 and Okuma Krios and other $100 plus reels for under $40. Smokes are Sub $90 now and even EXO from 2 years ago is down around $115....I don't mind a new model resting in a box.

Expect Cabela's to really drop prices again this year, problem is everything is back ordered. If you live near a Sports Authority they are going out of business and you may get lucky since nobody ever walks into them and they do 90% when closing up, and I would recommend attacking the Fishing Line aisle, you can make a nice chunk of change quickly, and have free line forever. The Managers are free to negotiate, if you want all the packs of Culprit worms, he may do .25 a bag? Some bags are old so just look stuff over, they carry colors that went out of production from Zoom a decade ago and that is not exaggerating. They sell bulk Owner/Gamakatsu hooks which also went 90%.

Sports Authority is closing a bunch of stores and many have sales. Only like 10% off fishing gear at the one near me but hey, it's something. Their fishing selection is downright terrible but they do have some stuff like power pro line and gamakatsu hooks. 

Sports Authority started closing Fishing departments about 3 years ago and they ship the bulk of fishing stuff to the best locations, and those locations will do the 90% when they go full out, I did well at 3 out of 11 I walked into the week I heard they were going out. The Sale is 75% or 80% but if you buy all the line, all Rapala's, the Manager will do 90%. Same with Sneakers...I am loaded up with line and sneakers for life.

Most stores only have the left over stuff from 1985 and yea, 10%, you have to watch the line if you do get lucky, because most of it is old. I buy it all because at that discount since line is easy to unload fast on Ebay just by beating the standard price by .50. No loyalty on Ebay.

Anything that was worth buying at mine in the fishing department was gone the second they started the sale at 10% off. I got a sweet deal on some cleats, boots for winter, and some sneakers though.

that"s awesome, I love saving money on items like shoes and clothing. They have a ton of Under Armor and other quality breathable shirts still on the shelves, I am thinking it will be 75% soon, I need to check again because I can't spend $50-$70 normal price for a shirt, but at 75% I will capitlize on that one and not care about color.

Of all things, they made sure their socks were not on sale at all. Like, they probably took a loss on some of the stuff I bought, but God forbid they loose .50 profit margin on a freaking pair of socks.

Sass, I have been in two DSG's in the past few days, and they have both had signs up with the deals mentioned.  DSG is the only tackle option close to where I live, and so I'm a regular.  On trips around the country I've found that the sales are almost always universal from store to store for major product lines: the same sales will be in effect for a given week in GA, FL, NC, etc.  Sometimes they make mistakes and either forget to put up a sign, or else the register doesn't ring up as it should based on the sign (less common).  

What I've found is that the weekly flyer gives a good indication of major sales, but there are usually additional sales that aren't included in the flyer.  Also, the same sales are repeated over the course of a year: the last couple of years they've heavily featured Booyah frogs, their own series of "Banshee" baits, Livetarget lures, Kietech, and the Rapala scatter rap and Shadow Rap series, and certain Lucky Craft baits.  The sales on these change from time to time, e.g. might be $4 each for certain multiples one week, then $5 each another.  This week's prices are about the lowest I have seen per item.

As for the DT's, they are not included in the Rapala sale this week, only the Scatter Rap series.

You have to get lucky with auctions. The key is some guys do not list them correctly, they may have a spelling error or maybe they are not a big volume seller, so you have to search for the reel several ways. 

Ending Soonest, Just listed (Then track the reels as listed to see who has what, it is the same 3 sellers who sell all the Reels and Rods) Then do advanced searches to see what the last few have sold for and send the seller an email and ask if he will take the amount you want to pay and make an offer). You would be amazed at what you can get deals on by simply asking the seller.

Most sellers will list reels at a steady clip which is programmed in as they do huge volumes, and if you see a reel has sold for $75 in the past $30, you can get that price from that guy if you email him directly. If you buy other items it is a slam dunk, the key to making money on Ebay is selling more than 1 item to each person, and right now people are stuck with older inventory.

I will shoot some links over of guys to follow and contact. All it takes is a nice email, and don't be afraid of a seller which says "No Returns". At the end of the day, and I should not post this but I will only put that on a listing to keep scammers away on big ticket items. Guys buy reels and try to coax you off of Ebay so they can "Help" you and that is great for the Seller until the buyer returns the reel and in the box you find a rock that weighs the same as the reel. 

I guess my point is you have to get lucky, if a guy starts listing Tatula's every other day, everyone is following, but you know he has more, so reach out to that person, throw out the price, and the reason you don't see low prices most of the time is because you keep those sales private. I don't want to give away the names of stores that do deals to save money and are honest, 1 has the no return policy, but you can trust them, they do a few thousand sales a month, and never get negative feedback. 

Also, always be suspect of reels that are "New From Combo's"...Many times they are refurbished and the seller is maybe not honest, or maybe they don't know. A new Tatula or any reel even if 2 years old, new in a box still has the same warranty but stock that old burns a hole in your pocket as a seller and with all the sales out there, guys want to move items. I actually get on Ebay every day with the sole purpose of finding really good deals that I can re-sell once all seller's are out of that item. It takes time, but Ebay has programs you can use to tell you any time a certain item or model number is listed, about to end, and in your price range. Hope that helps. If someone sells a reel for $94 on Ebay, You can expect that seller to take 10% off if you approach it right. Always be upfront and honest and I find Ebay works great as a buyer, not so much as a seller. Some people are always asking you to do silly deals, I don't mind giving someone a deal if they ask and give me a reasonable explanation at how they arrived that price. 

The local store I buy most of my stuff from is selling Okuma and Lew's reels right now at crazy prices. Almost 70% off of standard TW price, and he is making a profit, so you will find the room to negotiate is there now that China reels are gaining big time steam since that Kast King reel has hit almost all major Magazines, hits all the shows, and at $40 that reel is impossible to talk bad about, Unless you just can't accept the fact that American Companies have been forced to out source and some smart guys realized that I don't need to pay $15 and get $100, Lets get $40 and offer name brand reels as well, line etc....That is why I think we are seeing Companies being so cut throat. Chinese Brands will be the norm in 3 years, maybe sooner. But now I am rambling, if you need some links PM me and I will send the one's I used in the past to buy some great deals on reels and trust 100%, I am just not able to get on Ebay right now.

DSG has the usual suspects on sale this weekend, but you have to buy in quantity (varies by lure)

Kietech paddletails: $4 or $6/pack depending on size; Livetargets $4 hardbaits (min qty?), $10 sunfish (buy 2); Rapala buy one get one 50% off; YUM or Havoc plastics $10 for 5 packs if you buy 5; Strike King banshee house brand $3 each if you buy 4.

Based on last year these same baits will be cheaper or the quantity requirements will diminish as we head through September.

Best thing is they have all their scatter raps, DD22's, and full size Sexy Dawgs for $6/ea and bandit cranks for $5.  It is buy 5 get an equal or lower priced 5 for free, so I got 4 dawgs, 2 scatter raps, and 4 bandit 100's for $30 all in.  If you have a $10 off $50 survey coupon hard not to spend $10 more to get $20 more in stuff.  Good sales strategy.

The dicks sale also applies to yum money minows. They didn't originally show up as $2 each but I told the cashier and the manager fixed it. $20 will get you a nice swim bait collection.

Bought a Fenwick Eagle 1 piece 6',6" Medium Fast rod from Dicks today. Got a $10 rebate printed with my receipt. 

That turns a $60 Rod to $50 rod.


fishing user avatarj bab reply : 

Cabela's has Fenwick Silverhawks for $60, regularly $100, right now. They do that sale a couple times per year, seems like a decent buy for those who like to stay sub-$100 for their rods. I will say, the one that I've used is called a Medium but definitely seems more like a Medium Heavy, so keep that in mind

I ordered two of these at the Memorial day sale and had to return them b/c the foot arm changed dramatically.  They have a new hard, almost 45 degree angle so my fingers couldn't fit between the rod and reel to work a lure.  It's amazing how easily a manufacturer can screw up a good thing.  I'll post a pix if i can find it. My guess is they are selling these off quick to go back to the old design.

 

It might not look like a lot in the pix but it's a world of difference if you use the back of ur fingers to work the rod tip.

I noticed they are not on the Shimano website at all anymore. I hope they are not discontinuing the series in favor of the Nasci as they are the same price.

I know somebody mentions FFO-tackle every week or so, but they seem to have added some more items of possible interest recently, and the rotating deal right now is a 20% off over $40.  Worth a revisit if you haven't browsed there in a while. 

Medium aetos spinning rods in three different lengths for $88. In the "new arrivals" there's another model of the Elite tech smallmouth caster for $75 (6'3" M-MF, in addition to two MH models they have had for awhile) and a 2-piece 6'6" MF Veritas caster for $48. In casting reels I see a few different Revos, including some lefty models I don't remember seeing before.

Speaking of which, what gen is this Revo SX? Do I want it for $88?

I looked at that SX too.  I'm guessing it is not a gen 3 since the product designation is RVO3 SX.  I have the RVO3 SX and have been very happy with it.  I didn't go for it since it seems to be a previous generation.  They are not always spot on with naming though: Veritos?

I got the 7'10" Heavy for big hard swimbaits (gantarel, etc). Decent rod, haven't caught any fish on it yet but jeez if I can't throw that gantarel halfway across the world...

I'm wondering though, is it glass or graphite or a "blend?" Online it says graphite, on the rod it says "composite," and the rod is super super thick.

edit: I realize after typing this, it's obviously some combination of glass & graphite. dumb question

I got a email from Lew's with some deals September 26th - October 9th on some rods and spinning combos. As for Baitcasting rods they had these David Fritts Crankbait Speed Sticks $50 off a $110 rod. Pretty good price cut if the rods are decent. I have never used them. David Fritts Crankbait Speed Stick.JPG 

There were others as well

I can forward anyone who wants the complete email just PM me your email. It says at the bottom of my email: 

Quantities are limited! Email your orders to CustomerService@lews.com, fax them to 417.881.5387, or call 877.470.5397.

I didnt see any sale on the Lew's website so I guess you have to have the email to see all the deals. There rest I think were all different spinning reels, rods, or combos.

Maybe stating the obvious, but it appears that the Aetos line is being replaced by a newer version (per TW and Fenwick sites).   Seems hard to tell when they are changing a rod line's graphics vs making minor adjustments - complete overhauls are easier to spot in the specs.  In any case, thanks for the post.  I went for it.

And to think I was all set to order a short JDM casting rod.   6'6" isn't as short as I wanted, but $88 is a good price and I love the fenwick elite tech smallmouth I have.  How does that line compare to the Aetos?

I have two of the smallmouth baitcasters, had two last gen Aetos, until a few weeks ago when fenwick replaced one with the newer version when I broke the tip on one of them. The power/action ratings seem consistent across the aetos and smallmouth lines. The smallmouth has a shorter handle length, which I prefer, but I like the Aetos tac grip and reel seat better (Some of my reels don't tighten completely on the smallmouth rods unless I add a shim, like a small folded-over piece of  electrical tape). The deep blue finish on the Aetos is gorgeous in the sun -- it's definitely the best-looking rod I have. If I thought I could use another casting rod in the near future, I'd get another one of these from FFO for sure (I do have a 7' spinning Aetos coming which I pulled the trigger on a day before they sold out).

Although I will say, I saw your post on the major craft rods. I have a 6'4" MXF Aetos that is fine down to 1/4oz, but anything lighter I have trouble getting it to load well enough to cast as far as I'd like. So I'm not sure if the 6'6" MF model on FFO is quite the substitute for a true ML that you seem to be looking for.

Thanks for the insight.  I am waffling back and farther between ML and M again.  Which is good as I am at my self imposed limit on combos, so I really should sell something first to make room in the rack.

Don't know if this is just a local sale but Field & Stream has clearance items where if you buy 5, you get 5 (of the same or lesser value) free.  I "snagged" 10 Shadow Raps (one of my very favorite baits) for about 3 buck a piece.  What I don't use, I'll give as gifts.  They'll thank me later.

At least part of this year's Black Friday special at Cabela's will be Quantum Energy reels & Tour KVD 150s. Nice reels. Not sure the sale price but obviously it will be priced very low.

I ended up picking up 3 of each colour they had just because they were a good price and I figured stocking up on a good hunting balsa square bill wasn't a bad thing

I was there on Saturday and stocked up on Shad Raps in various patterns, was a lot of Rapala left and I plan on going back next pay day to see what they have left.  I've got a 3700 devoted to crankbaits, square bills, and chatterbaits all weighing 3/8oz or less that I'm going to fishing with an original Daiwa S glass crankbait/spinnerbait rod w/ a TATULA CT TYPE-R in an effort to get a bit more versatile in my power fishing.

Thanks for the heads up about the Bagley's too; I went and picked up a few KVD 1.5's for the box above and am going to stick with those until I pass judgement on them next season.

Cheers, Attila

TW has 3+ in stock at the moment and they'll be likely be 20% off Friday morning. Since it's Shimano you'll likely have to call to get that deal, but it will be well worth the couple minutes of your time.

I'm not sure exactly how they operate but last year I ordered some stuff that was on the exclusion list and they applied the discount after checkout by themselves, no phone call needed. I don't know if they would do that for all items or brands, or even if they will do it at all this year. Definitely worth the phone call. But if a Tatula rod (what I ordered) is something they would instantly discount without you even asking then I would think most other things would be fair game too.

Only rods I'm in the market for are a cranking rod or a decent swimbait rod. But I don't need them that much at the moment so unless I see an unbelievable deal I'm not gonna pull the trigger on either until next year.

I already got one of the spinning rods, and it feels pretty good and fairly sensitive (especially for 12.99:)).  It's a little tip heavy and it's got a shorter handle, so I think it will be perfect for jerkbaits.  Definitely runs a smidge on the lite side for it's rating though.

I got the 6' 6'' MHF in hopes of using it as a spinnerbait rod.  I would've liked something longer, but I'm not complaining about it for $20 shipped

Yea I remember I almost picked up an inferno. I'll definitely be watching that sale, but it's not a huge priority. I don't crank a whole lot so like I said it's got to be an insane deal.

Yes. 


fishing user avatarMIbassyaker reply : 

Things will go out of stock, but it depends  somewhat on whether you're looking for high-demand stuff. Things that are already on sale  may or may not get snatched up quickly, but if they were really high demand, they probably would have sold out already. But the sale wont' go live until friday morning pacific time at some point. I'm on Eastern, so that translates to about 12-1pm or thereabouts for me. Last year the site got overloaded almost immediately once the sale was posted. 

You can also check Monster fishing tackle or Susquehanna fishing tackle to see if they have what you want. They also have 20% sales over the weekend, and both are already live.

You don't need to call in for the exclusions. Your order confirmation will show it. I had a lot of stuff on the exclusion list including a reel. All were applied at confirmation. Can't say for megabass though.

Dang. Just ordered a ton of stuf from TW.. Nothing new, just replacements for lost or destroyed baits like Cavitrons, T1 spinnerbaits, Super Flukes, Senkos, a KVD Sexy Dawg, and some chatterbaits.

And to answer my question, you just put the stuff in your cart and it gets the discount automatically.

it will reflect the discounted price after payment/order confirmation. if you don't want to do it that way then just call them and they will do it for you or tell you do do exactly what I just did.

They do have less stuff but they sometimes have some items TW doesn't carry or is out of stock, and sometimes I can find a better price with them but that goes both ways, which is why I like to compare a cart from both before buying. For example, OPS has Shellcracker G2's whereas TW doesn't. They also sell the S-Waver 200 for 35 bucks, but TW sells them for 46.

That's really interesting - same thing in two different stores in the Atlanta area.  Might be nation-wide.

In any case, it's a great deal considering the Dick's base price of $6.29/bag is pretty hard to beat to start with.

I own another Patriarch XT and I did have a Stradic Ci4+ but have since sold it. I really prefer the Patriarch. It has a slightly higher gear ratio, feels smoother, and I prefer the magnesium body to graphite on the stradic. I don't know if shimano has made any changes since, but mine had the EVA knob on it and I just did not care for that. 

I do think the stradic is a quality reel, but unless I were going to use it in saltwater I would choose the Patriarch every time.

Guys, I'm in GA - north of Atlanta.  They say you shouldn't divulge too much online - hope nobody from DSG reads this!!! ;)

Seriously, I'm a frugal angler and it kills me when stuff is overpriced.  I've come to like senkos as much as the next guy, but as is a common refrain on here - c'mon, we are talking cigar-shaped plastic here...  I was visiting family in Ontario Canada last summer and in some stores Senkos were $10+ (CDN) and regular rapalas like Husky Jerks and Originals were kept behind locked glass.  For real.

Anyway hope some of y'all get some good prices on senkos this week and remember to check they ring up properly!

If they can't deliver, they should send you the new President XT which is essentially the Limited version without the 2016 date on it and a lighter color.  They should give you one of these since they fit the same specs.

Fenwick Aetos rods $79.99 ($100 off), Pflueger Limited Edition President Reels $49.99, Pflueger Patriarch XT $124.99 (50% off).

Thanks! I got a Patriarch XT! I've been eyeing that reel forever waiting for a deal like that! It was actually another 15 percent off with the "holiday15" code. $105 for a $250 reel!

Just got an email from Cabela's, they can't deliver. They said sorry and suggested I order Purist instead. Sorry but I'm very disappointed with them. This is a reel I'd been eyeballing, they were already sold out in the size I wanted but I got excited when they sent out the Black Friday mailer. Then they put them all back on the website for the sale and they never had them, and apparently can't get them. I have a friend who ordered one first thing in the morning and he got the same email. LAME.

I gave up on Cabelas in 2015 b/c of this same issue.  My guess is a BPS buy out was in the mix for a long time which lead to less purchasing/fulfillment issues.  Don't get me wrong I still order...I'm just not holding my breath.

Actually I travel a ton for work and all my fishing stuff is paid for out of per diem or reimbursement checks.  It isn't quite "free money", but by the time I spend it months later, it feels really good not to see a dip in my checking balance whenever a box lures shows up at the house.

Yeah it seems to have taken a price increase or a smaller % off. I could have swore I've bought Tatsu the past 2 years  in 20# for 30(ish) for 200 yds during this sale.

No Clue.

I buy all my line in bulk - just how I do it.

I can usually get 1000yds of 12lb Invisx for somewhere around $72 year round.  That same spool of Tatsu, even with today's TW sale is $180 American Dollars.  That's a pretty big leap.

I'm sure it's great line, I'm certainly not knocking anglers that like and use it but I can't go there - especially since I'm satisfied with the Invisx.

fishing user avatarfishballer06 reply : 

Some guys swear by Tatsu, but I just can't justify $37 for a 200 yd. spool of 12-15lb, whenever I can get 660 yards of Sniper for around $48-55 any time of the year.

Paying for the name about like Smackdown braid. Have tried this in 2 different tests not finding where the premium price it is justified. Its not stronger or quieter nor holds its color as well as $15-$20 braids.

It is a great deal but I'm not sure the initial price of 25 bucks was justified either.

I didn't think so either until I tried it. It's hard to spend the money on it, but it's sooo much better than any other fluoro I've tried. I really like their flippin flouro for a tough line for fishing nasty places.

marketing 101.  why would a company only want to sell product X to low end consumers when they can also make money selling Y to middle of the road, and Z to high end consumers.  same reason companies offer rods for $75, $150 and $300.  triple dipping :eyebrows:

I bought a few last year, bought twice as many this year. I picked up some Gamy treble hooks on the Black Friday sale in anticipation of buying these this year. I've never paid full price for a Rico, so I don't have an original to compare them to. But the only issue I noticed last year was one of the three I picked up seemed to have the wrong size beed/rattle. It gets stuck, and is therefore not as noisy. Just a guess, but I thought they may have accidentally put the rio Rico size beed in a Rico. Can't know for sure. The other two seemed perfect to me, and all have caught fish.

Poppers are in my top three favorite techniques, and they're nearly impossible to lose, so I have no problem dropping some extra cash for these and a few megabass pop x/max's every year. Well worth it to me.

As the title states, is the next Tackle Warehouse sale the day after Christmas?

Also, would a Minn Kota Ulterra be eligible for 20% off? It seems unlikely, but that is what I'm looking to get. 

If not on sale there, where would the most likely place to find it on sale be?

The 2500 will still pick up slightly less line per turn though right? Since the spool is smaller.

Yea anyone wanting/needing a spinning reel should really consider pickin  CI4 up. I was waiting to see how much they were gonna be on sale for so just gonna grab a 2016 for $48 bucks more. Plus I really want the 2500 instead of the 3000. There both the same gear ratio.

Me too.

What'd ya get ?

I got one with stripes, another with a checkerboard.  I had to donate the plastic sleeve, and sacrifice the EVA, since the new knobs are glued onto the sleeve. In the meantime, Power Grip II knobs will work.  Contact him.  I can't remember how much.  Not too expensive, but not cheap either.  They have held up well.

Man ~ I was holding out for the new model (spinner) as I'm not a fan of the EVA knob but that Price is not making it easy.

Doesn't look like I could switch out the handles either - size appear different.

I put a left handed PGII septon on mine.  Shimano spinning reel posts are the same as baitcasting.  Made my 2500 feel right at home in my hand.

No they don't typically do new years or valentines day. You should really consider getting a Chronarch, they're on sale for $189 right now which is 30% off, and you get your extra 10% because you bought a gift card.

Yeah, the Stradic CI4 seems like a good deal at 149, compared to when it used to be 219 or something.

@j bab Thanks.I would consider the Chronarch, but I wanted the lower gear ratio curado for some 10-16 foot diving cranks (with the option to crank down some DD22's on occasion.)

Several posts on the Texas Fishing Forum that Academy is blowing out the Mettle Max-4 10 bearing reels (this is the Real Tree Camo one). Reg $79.99 for $9.88. This was confirmed in the Houston & Waco stores. I will check out a few in N. Texas tomorrow, so check your areas. One poster stated that a store that was sold out, honored the price & shipped to his home (he bought 4). Must be an in-store only deal because the on-line price is still $79.99.

Just bought one at my local Cabela's yesterday morning. By the way, when I went to the register to pay for it, they scanned it at $99.99. I mentioned that the ad stated it was on sale for $69.99. The lady behind the counter checked the ad and corrected the price.

Yes, and like all the Sunline products I use I think it's great line. Now the difference between it and the new BX2 is the dia BX2 thinner and has a coating on it making it very very slick and quiet through guides. The FX2 is more abrasion resistant and made specifically for frogging. The FX2 is very limp also and I had no bleeding or fading in 4 mos. Hope this helps.

I use 50lb FX2 and its my go to braid. I don't know how I feel about the Green/Blue line though..

 

It has an incredibly thin diameter for 50lb braid and I don't have any digging issues.

These rods are legit. Comparable to the abu garcia veritas. In my opinion they are much better than a lightning rod, fish eagle etc.

I picked up one of those Shimano Nexave reels at our Academy last week for $20. Don't really need it, but couldn't pass up a Shimano marked $40 off. I really like using these low end spinning reels for bank fishing/pond hopping. No worries if I beat em up really bad.

I have one of the small Sevens and one of their trouts.  Neither of them cast very well for me, but I am not very skilled to begin with.  They both seem to have decent action and I might buy an other trout or two to throw right after DNR's spring rainbow stockings.

I am finding the exact same thing this year.   Nothing is super impressive.  I used to love tackle warehouse but even black friday i ordered elsewhere as their sale was super late starting and other site had everything i wanted in stock

Hadn't heard that Pure Fishing was sold off, but in my opinion, Berkley was very far down on the list before I would by one of there products. Not because they are bad, I just see others as better options for my fishing, except when it comes to line.

I bought every Echo 1.75 they had which was 6 in Sexy Shad and 1 in a blue/chart. color. I only anticipated on spending $50 at Academy but I couldn't resist and had to throw an extra $50 out.

I picked up another Zillion.  Got a gift card first so I paid about $122 for it.  I would've bought a few more if they had the higher gear ratios.  Also got a 300 yd spool of the fx2 braid.  Anytime my favorite braid is on sale I grab some.  Thought long and hard about another Chronarch and Stradic CI4 but couldn't bring myself to do it.  I still have $250 in gift cards but I may just wait till the Memorial Day sale.

Right, it would allow them to monopolize on a market that at this point is already a conglomerate bordering on monopolistic competition due to the differentiation in fishing products.My reference was to the fact that Cabela's has had to drive sale pricing in order to get consumers to put their foot in the door, which then helps me get good deals! :D

They only have the 5.5:1 in righties now but I don't crank enough to warrant replacing my Curado E5.  If that extra 25% off sale items counts towards it, I might reconsider though lol.  It is in fact on the "Sale" page.

 

So do you guys know how that extra 25% off on the last day works? Some of the 25 days items are on the sale page, but most aren't. Is the expectation that those on the sale page will drop 25% more?

Day 25: "Sale items marked down an extra 25% off"

 

Day 25 is always the same. You get an extra 25% off what is left through the sale period. 


fishing user avatarMassYak85 reply : 

Oh man that 5.5:1 Zillion is tempting since I don't have a crankbait setup at the moment, especially if the 25% off sale items applies to that as well. 300 dollar reel for 100 bucks...we'll see if I can bring myself to it. Of course that would mean I would need a rod too :laugh5: Bait Monkey looks like he may get the last laugh

 

I also have a gift card that would pretty much cover the reel...

Looks like none of the 25 days stuff that was in the sale list got marked off anymore. Will do a minimum order to get free shipping, but still not a lot jumped out for me other than some terminal tackle. Not sure if it is me being picky, or if it is the items being offered. 

 

This is year it felt like they put more slow moving product out vs other years they had some favorites, especially they Berkley stuff.

Yep, as long as it's fifty dollars or more it qualifys for free shipping, including sale items.  In case you didn't know, the current five dollar off code is FHABAQ214.

Same, I was eyeing the 5.5 Zillion to start to put together a cranking setup given how it would have been 100 bucks with the added discount. I had some gift cards I was going to burn but I think I'm going to save them for a bigger purchase next year instead. I kind of want the Muse "Noir" Swimbait rod and an A3 reel but I'm not paying retail for that setup. Might wait until the next Black Friday sale and use the gift cards then to minimize the out of pocket cost. 


fishing user avatarblckshirt98 reply : 

I went to town last year during the 25 Days TW sale.  This year I only got a handful of items just to hit the $50 free shipping threshold.  Part of this is that they had a lot of repeat items for sale that I stocked up on last year, and the rod/reel price and selection wasn't as good as they were last year.

I wonder if the Mods would be OK with re-starting this popular thread anew for 2017?

 

My first post was last year to mention that DSG was doing it's usual year end clearance in January.  I have greatly enjoyed the board for a lot more than just the bait monkey-sponsored threads.

 

This year DSG is starting 2017 with a buy 5 clearance/get 5 clearance sale.  The "get 5" are the cheapest 5 of your lot of 10.  I checked.

 

Examples that I have seen on clearance include certain Rage plastics, VMC hooks, Bandit cranks, DD22's and older craw-colored Rapalas.  Exactly what is on sale varies from store to store (e.g. some have VMC shakey heads on, some have certain Rage shellcrackers, some don't).

Just keep using this thread...

Start another, and then you'll have people updating two threads.

If for some reason this becomes split off another, I'll just merge it with this, original thread.

 

Besides, it's interesting to go back, and see what deals were going on in the past.

For me it's listed as an add-on item, which means you have to buy something for $25 or more to get the price. Can't buy it alone. Likely not a price mistake, they do deep add-on discounts pretty regularly on random things. Socks for like 2 bucks.. etc.

I ordered a copy of it as well and it should be here tomorrow.  From what I gathered from everyone talking about it, is that focuses on structure, breaks and break lines and how bass relate to them.

I have not recieved spoonplugging yet, it's not predicted to arrive for another week or two.  Several extremely knowledgeable people on this forum and elsewhere have highly recommended it, and according to them it's not so much about spoonplugging (although it does discuss it, that's not necessarily the point) but more about how to find deep water, offshore bass.  Such as what a sanctuary and contact points are, what they look like, etc.  So yes, it is a book you could read and use the information with other techniques besides spoonplugs and the jump lures described in the book.

Yep, this book is not really about the lure at all.  It's about how to understand where fish are and why they are there in most any type of water (reservoir, lakes, even a little about ponds).  It teaches you to better understand your body of water and how to be more productive/efficient.  His writing style is kind of colloquial but you get used to it.  It's the type of book that every time you read it you'll learn something you missed previously.

Has anyone tried using cabela's Whuppin stick for crankbaits?  It's on sale for only $20 (and is ruitenely is marked down even lower).  I've been eyeing the seven foot medium moderate rod to pair with my bantam for cranks.


fishing user avatarAttila reply : 

Thanks for the heads up regarding the special deals that are happening these days, I appreciate it.

 

I believe that I'm done buying for the year as I'll be putting my focus on chatterbait, spinnerbait, and squarebill fishing along with my usual topwater, jerkbait, and crankbait offerings.  The only lures from here on in that will get my attention are those that may be released leading up to or at the Classic, so it's a bit of a wait and see.

I am booking my vacation time in some provincial parks this year so am focusing my buying dollars on camping items. I've purchased a great tent and got a great Coleman stove for Christmas. Really looking forward to using the stove which has both a burner and a grill portion so it'll be easier to have a fish fry during the day wherever I find myself wetting a line. I've found a great self inflating sleeping pad and a small, packable sleeping bag that won't take up much room in what is going to be a packed Chevy Cruz this summer.

 

The last thing I need to purchase is my fishing line and I'll be keeping an eye on that for when it goes on sale. Only two brands, being Power Pro Super Slick in timber brown and Seaguar InvizX.

Hope that you're all enjoying the off season if you have one.

The local Dick's near me has some of the "made for Dick's" SK red eye shads on clearance.  $3.97, buy 5 get 5 free.  Limited colors.

My local dicks didn't have red eye shads in sale but all savage gear baits were buy one get one 50% off. I picked up some hollow body frogs which look like booyah pad crasher knock offs and a mouse that looks just like a koppers mouse but with only a skirt and no tail. For only $4 each after tax, it felt like a good deal.

Finally went to Walmart and stopped in the fishing aisle. Cotton Cordell rattle baits and square bills for $1.96, Luck E Strike curltail worms $1.56 per 10 pack, the legendary $1.00 spinnerbait, Zman Chatterbaits for $2.96. Lots of YUM soft plastics for $1.96. I spent some money.

Cabela's has the Curado 300/301/301EJ marked down to $194.99/$209.88.  Better than eBay price if you're looking for a proven swimbait reel -

Also the LuckyCraft hardbaits have been discounted further to $5.99 -

 

http://www.cabelas.com/catalog/browse/hard-baits/_/N-1102771/Ns-CATEGORY_SEQ_105743880

 

Also $5 flat shipping if you spend at least $99, using the code 27FLAT

Use gift cards and you get get ANOTHER 9% or so off...so tempting even though I don't need a reel.

No luck finding these at the Dick's I checked. They weren't even aware of a "made for Dick's" version and certainly no buy 5 get 5.

 

Does anyone know what colors were offered in the "made for Dick's" version?

If you can find a DSG with enough of them, here's the scoop:

 

The latest incarnation of Strike King brand "made for DSG" baits is called the "Banshee" line.  I'm 99% percent sure the Banshee lipless bait IS a Redeye shad, but only in the 1/2 oz size.  Same oval line tie, same red eye, and in my experience, loved equally by bass.  After extensive field research, I've only seen the following four Banshee lipless bait colors:

- Chart belly craw

- Smokin hot shad (close to sexy shad)

- Simple shad (basic grey shad)- Rojo craw (red craw)


Others in the Banshee lineup include spinnerbaits (exclusive to Dicks maybe) and buzzbaits which have been extremely effective for me.  They also offer a curved-lipped popper and a "pro model" type crank.

Vimage sells closeout Banshee lures and you can see the lineup there:

http://www.vimageoutdoors.com/strike-king-5/

 

DSG are having a 5-for-5 sale for the rest of this month, for clearance lures.

 

Good luck!!

i Just bought 10 series 3 cranks @ $4EA. and got 10 free.  Hard to beat the price.

Most of the clearance stuff at my DSG is red tagged and on a clearance rack, but the Banshee lures had regular tags with a price ending in .97...  At DSG look for any lures or terminal tackle with prices ending in .43 .47 .93 and .97.

Good point.  Usually there is clearance stuff with .x7 endings and plain tags, and non-clearance with non-.x7 endings with bright red tags, and I don't see any reason why.

Dick's only had the spinnerbaits in the Banshee lineup. I instead found some Kvd slash 200 jerkbaits for $5.97. They only had 5 of them so I picked 5 Kvd 1.0 and 1.5 squarebills for my 5 free lures. Thanks again for posting about these deals.


fishing user avatarOutdoor Zack reply : 

Got a BPS magazine in the mail today about the spring classic.  Looks like a lot of their lower-budget rods and reels are on sale.

 

$50 for the Bps pro qualifier doesn't sound bad to me and $30 for a Berkley lightning rod doesn't either.  I hear they're both good for the money, in case somebody is looking

 

And a lot of baits are marked down and it looks like terminal tackle and monofilament line is 25-50% off or more too.  Not really seeing anything that  is a killer deal from the looks of the magazine but there are probably some deals if you really look in the store

Got that ad myself today. For $50, the PQ is an excellent reel. I am thinking about picking a couple up as back ups.  Also had 20% off on Invisx although I am not sure how their regular price is.

fishing user avatarjimf reply : 

I had no intention of picking up a BPQ, but for $50 I'm not going to pass that up.  I generally like Lew's, but for that price it's a no brainer.  And while I love my Lew's TP's, for $99 I think the BPQ is a better reel than the Lew's $99 Speed Spool.   As mentioned above, for $50 that's an excellent reel.  Heck, for $99 it's a nice reel.  

 

 

 

 


fishing user avatarstandman reply : 

Does BPS generally have a bunch of the BPQ reals available at the "special" price? I currently own couple entry level baitcasting reels (Okuma from Dick's and Daiwa Laguna - both available for $30-$35 when on sale) and wouldn't mind stepping up to the BPQs.

Presidents Day Sale at DSG and F&S. It's "un-presidented" as I said in the morning meeting and received a applause of groans. We've got like 50-75% off apparel and footwear clearance, but only 30% off fishing clearance. Although it stacks with an employee discount.

We've got a Stradic 1000 for like $100 and some Quantum Tour MGs for $115. Unfortunately, I don't need a 1000 size or to spend $100.

I can confirm this in my area.  I've been in several of these stores since this came up on the thread.  For the most part, prices on many baits and some lines and accessories are "good" - reduced by around 10-40% - common examples are Norman Fat Boys for $4.50, silver Rapala No.8 Flat Raps (where they have them) for $5, certain Yumbrella Rigs (e.g. the 3-wire for $7), and Bomber Square A's for $3.  Good prices, but selection varies and not earth shattering.

 

But whoa - if you are looking for Hula Grubs (in some colors) for under $1/pack or Booyah Boo Teasers for $1, overstockbait.com has them on sale until some time on Wednesday.

It's been different every year pretty much. Never the same date. If you google search "tacklewarehouse tax stimulus sale" you can see all the sales from the past years. Some were at the end of April, some at the beginning.

I am a cheap gear and good deal aficionado, and I think you scored by walking away and keeping $29 in your pocket for something else.  There is always great satisfaction in getting a great deal, especially if you work for it by asking for it.  But regardless of how good the "deal" part may feel - I don't think you'll feel good about a re-tipped reject rod over the long term.  If you search tip repairs on the forum, you'll see that replacing a tip leaves you with a different rod - and normally not for the better.  I had FX2500 reel that someone gave me new, and it worked well for a few months and then the handle and other components started feeling loose.  There was no repairing it back into shape.

If he would have done it for 15 i would have bought it.Spent 5 bucks to re tip it and had a spare rod for 20 bucks total.I mean it was probably broken off right at the tip and it was clean.Easy repair.

I fought the Monkey off.   I really want a BFS rod that can handle lures down to 1/8 of an ounce.  The combo will be used for wading small streams and rivers and for some of the smaller ponds I frequent, and at both of those spots I will throw weightless 4" finesse worm type lures pretty often.

Word of caution when ordering items that "Ship from Vendor" from Gander Mountain with all the deals they have going lately....the ship to store and arrive in 2-4 days means that when it ships from the vendor it will ship to the store within 2-4 days. I took advantage of the 20$ off 100 and ordered the Ram D111-U for 80$ after the discount. Waited 2 weeks and it was still at vendor. Gander couldn't give any info on when it will ship and was unable to get a response from RAM for some reason yet I got responses from RAM when inquiring about mounts within hours....The bright side is they refunded me and money was back in account day of.

It's bad enough when you wear Huk gear and people ask "what does Huck stand for?" or "What's H-U-K?" spelling out the letters. One guy who knew I am a comic fan asked me "Why are you wearing a Hulk hat?" He didn't catch the missing L. I have to tell them it's pronounced "hook" after the pronunciation guide in the dictionary if you look up hook.

Just have to be careful, the "promotional" zoom fluke bags at $1.18 near me have fewer per pack (as labeled) vs a standard fluke pack.  Still a better unit price than most regular fluke packs, plus they have some good colors that aren't as common in big box stores.  Recently marked down to 0.75 at one of the stores I went into, but not all.

 

As others have stated, I noticed the variety of items on clearance varied from store to store (one had KVD squarebills, others did not), and the timing at which they implemented successive markdowns also varies.  One store I went into had already sold everything off and re-set they new stock, another had only a few rods left, and others were apparently just putting the clearance stuff out.  The pricing was the same even in different states though, unless they were in "deep clearance" mode where it appears the stores have discretion to price as low as they want to.

Yeah, you have to careful with a lot of the things you buy at walmart, make sure you give them a good lookover, as someone I know use to take one senko from each bag they had and put it into a YUM Dinger bag, with the Dingers. Checkout just looked at it, said "Eh," and sold it to him.  Always count the amount you have per bag.

Same experience out here in Georgia.  They put a new load out on Tuesday after having slim pickin's on Sunday.  I also scored some of the swimbait hooks.  Never seen those before.

 

BTW I know they grow 'em big in CA and the objective is to overtake GA for the new world record, but 9/0's???  Sounds optimistic!  ;)

Just another piece of tackle to add to my hoard that I'll probably never use!  If anything maybe I'll use it on one of the new 7.8" FAT Swing Impacts and chuck it in the ocean next time I'm in SoCal.

Not to hyjack the thread.....but where are you getting the info about the bigger Keitechs? as in the 6.8 and 7.8?

Ive tried telling people for the last 2 weeks not to bother getting excited for the TW Classic sale. It's always been just a clearance sale on baits and equipment that don't sell well. I saw a lot of people saying they were going to save their income tax money for this Classic Sale, and I continuously suggested either shopping elsewhere, or saving their money for the TW tax stimulus sale, which at least offers 10% off 97% of their products, as opposed to a discount on baits that don't sell well.

No doubt there are deals to be had, but people think it is similar to their other sales where most items are 10-15% off. My only point has been that you are only able to select from the specific lures they mark down and it's very rarely the most popular, most used products.

The deal on the ss is better but the reel is not. The ss is not exactly  a finesse reel as someone mentioned. It holds 90 yards of #16 which is roughly the same as the 103 and not the line size typically used for finesse. It has less drag but 8lbs is plenty. I used mine for weightless plastics. All sv spool reels can cast light baits. The problem with the ss is it's made of zaion and has a very hollow feel to it. Also the spool used in it is very overbraked. I'd take a 103 10/10 times against the ss. Still a nice little reel but it was a let down to me and many others.

Very good info.  I saw the line capacity of the SS SV and thought it seemed to hole more line than a typical finesse baitcaster so I was hoping it wasn't (since that's not my jam).  Tough decision.  The SV 103 is definitely more of what I'm looking for but the SS just looks so cool haha. 

I do like that fact that the SV 103 has the old Zillion frame.  Super comfortable reel.  Decisions, decisions.

Not trying to be hostile, but stores can't have sitewide sales all the time.  TW has a massive sale on Black Friday and a decent sale for tax returns.  Some stores never have a sitewide discounted sale, much less two of them per year.

No worries man.  Keitech USA has been posting up teasers on their Facebook page for the past couple of months, I think the release date is going to be around April or May from what people are saying in comments.  Here's a post from Jan 15 2017 where they show the bait being fished, along with Keitech's comments on swimbait hooks to use.  Bass Resource is directly blocking the FB link, if it's blocking the tinyurl just go to Keitech USA's page on Facebook and look for their Jan 15 post.

Thank you very much for that. I'm really wanting to get into bigger swimbaits this year. Buying a $7 plus bait is a big step for me. I've done pretty well with the cheaper baits. But there is no denying the effectiveness of these higher dollar 7 plus inch swimbaits. If I can get 4 of the 5.8 fat impacts for the same price, to me it's a better buy at this point of my fishing hobby. But I'm even more intrigued with the 6.8 fat impacts. 

 

Thanks again for that info!

 I said the same thing. My Trokars came like a dripping faucet as well. Some in small boxes like a reel would come in, and some in plastic envelopes. I was saying no wonder Dicks usually can't compete with other stores and why the one nearest me looks like it's shutting down all the time.

 This appears to be really bad management. :Idontknow:  At best it's a really poor look from a customer's view. I had to keep checking to make sure what ones I had received and what ones I still had not got. I wasn't going to complain though as the price was awesome for Trokars. They could only do worse sending one hook at a time but even then at the price they were selling for I guess I wouldn't care.   :lol:

Walked in to my local Academy the other day - looking to spend around $100-120 on a new reel to rig out a rod I have. I noticed 2 lone Abu Orra 2SX rod/reel combos that had been re-priced using an old-school mom-n-pop style price gun sticker, in 3 spots on each setup. They were priced at $97.49 (odd right?).  The same reel alone was $99 regularly priced on the shelf.  ($79 on several other sites). 

 

I figured WTH, I don't mind having another 7' MH/F rod around, basically I'm getting it for free.  I walked out with one, after the manager had to be called over to override the regular $139 price.  Next day I caved in and went back for the other one, but it was nowhere to be found. 

 

YMMV - but might keep an eye out for random pricetags.  Wondering if there might have been a big tent sale or something.

Ya, the really good deals get gone real fast. That's just the way it goes I guess.

As to the Steez, I don't know...nothing wrong with putting it onto another rod until you get the one you want. At least it's what I think...

Na, I'm a Daiwa fan and am looking at picking up a Steez or one of the new TATULA® CT TYPE-R in a 6.3 speed.  They're an economical but quality product that I fell in love with last year.

I think the "in small town Minnesota" part he mentioned is the key.  The same has applied to '"in urban center of a big City" for me.  I think the key is the best deals, and not picked over, are in out of the way places that don't get a lot of traffic.

Yep - hit mine up tonight - only found some random things like Gamakatsu offset EWG 4/0 and 5/0 5pk hooks marked down to $1.97, but they were all gone - the 2/0 and 3/0 were reg price.  Didn't really see anything worth looking at.  And man I'm needing to buy some new crankbaits - that was a heck of a deal. 

 

I was walking thru Samsclub earlier today and they had a rack of Abu Garcia Orra SX rod n reel combos - all 7' MH/F rods with the 6.4:1 version of the reel for $104. I bought the same combo from Academy 2 weeks ago, and It is a really solid little setup.

I am disappointed again with tw's sales. 10% is not very good. I think that perhaps they believe they have the market cornered and don't really have to compete. I have several gift certificates but will wait to they have a competitive sale. I will tell my family only to give me the big fish place gift certificates. I did buy a new rod from the big fish place today. I had a several hundred dollar order for tw, but it goes on hold.

 

I am still in with TW, but did have to get the gift cards when they were 10% off so that my savings over Memorial Day would be 25%. Really hoping they do extra off on some brands like they did on the BF sale.

DSG has all Keitech at buy one get one 50% off, AKA 25% off each when you buy 2 of the same size.

 

This puts them under the best prices I am aware of: $5/pack for 3.8's and $6/pack for the 4.3 and 4.8 versions.

 

This gets really worthwhile when you use one of the $10 off of $50 coupons from doing a review at dicks.com/feedback after a purchase, or using the $20 off of $100 - the deal that they have online today and tomorrow.

 

I'm a bit of a nerd so I did a quick spreadsheet and that means if you do a combo of 4,6, or 8 packs of 4.3-4.8 plus 6,4, or 2 packs of 3.8 (to total 10 packs) then you are getting them all for about 60% of the regular DSG price.  Good chance to stock up for the coming season.

Awesome deal. But I looked at the fine print on the rebate form....so it's a gamble (even though DSG online says the rebate is valid.

I think I'm about to get 16 bags of power worms lol. The 10inch ones have always produced well for me in the summer. How does the rebate work if you order online? I assume print 4 rebates, then print your online receipt 4 times and circle the baits in groupings of 4 for each one of the rebates?

Yea it is a little risky but it's still a heeeelllllll of a deal even without the rebate. 100% off is great but 50% I will take any day lol.

I've done the Powerbait rebates many times over the past decade or so.  Never been a problem.  I've always received the check within the stated time frame.  Berkley does this often enough that they've got it down.  It will work.

I used 15pound and it was very weak broke easily. Tried 4 times emailing Seaguar for some assistance never got a reply. Poor line, poor customer relations. Wont buy it again. Also found 30pound Smackdown to be weak for its rating(got low 20's knot strength wise) my 20 braid same dia from other brands were just as strong/stronger.

Me too haha. It was kind of weird though. When I was selecting the worms some sizes in certain colors were out of stock which is normal, but I also had it happen where it let me select a certain color and size but then the "add to cart" button became unselectable with that combination. Most of the ones I wanted they had though. Got some grape, motor oil, watermelon, green pumpkin and red shad.

Just an FYI Dick's has the Berkley Powerbaits on sale online for $2.50 a bag if you buy 4 at a time. So $10 for 4 bags minus $10 mail in rebate = you're just paying the tax on 4 bags! 

I ordered 16 bags since there a cap of 4 rebates per person.

I hope it all works out. I was going to order at least 2 rebates worth but then I recalled how some of my rebates worked in the past. 6 weeks, 8 weeks, 10 weeks, 14 weeks, a year later, and now many years later I have yet to even hear from some companies much less get a check from them. Several were $100 rebates to.  I know in this case it's no great loss if they don't pay back but its the principal. ;) 

 

My personal experience with the Berkley rebates has been fantastic. I bought a bunch of the saltwater gulp baits last year and submitted the rebate. Check was received but got thrown out in the trash by mistake. I called the 1-800 number and spoke to a very nice lady who took my information and could see that the check was not cashed. She cancelled that check and issued another. 2 weeks later I received it.

I have 10 bags of worms and 6 of the shad baits. Actually excited about this deal, because I have almost all finesse style worms, so this will give me something different to toss, and tax was only 2.20. Will be curious to see how many shipping notices I get, first time ordering from DSG for me.

Also, one of the packages shipped directly from Pure Fishing, not from DSG.

DSG shipping is ridiculous.  When they had their sale on Trokar hooks I ordered probably 30 packs of hooks and they came in at least 15 different shipments.  It was a mix and match of boxes and padded envelopes, oftentimes it would be a single pack of hooks in a box that could fit two reels.

I hear you!  They had a Buy 4 Get 4 Free special on Lunkerhunt lures so I picked some up and  they came in 2 packages (1 box and 1 padded envelope).  The padded envelope looked like it got stuck under a tire it was no longer yellow but back!

Talking to my wife who works for a place that ships a fraction of the stuff a store would, she says they get a deal on shipping, so I would guess the big boxes get a sweet deal as well.

Thanks @ClackerBuzz @j bab et al.  Thought I was done with DSG for a while after stocking up on hooks this week for the buy 4 get two sale.  When your post sunk in I went to one of our DSG's and got my own stock of 16, including ripple shads to try for the first time.  

Couldn't just spend $40 at Dicks though, need to get over the $50 mark to use the get $10 off of $50+ coupon, so I made up the balance with 2 x $15 Whopper Plopper 130's and took the $10 off.  In other words, once you account for the rebate, that's $20 net for two WP 130's plus 16 bags of Powerbaits.  Not bad...

I'm guessing this was more of a "flash sale" scenario where they wanted to blow out some extra stock, without putting their normal sales channels/partners in too much of a bad spot.  I was on the fence about picking up a reel, then I saw it pop up on  Slickdeals' front page, and I knew it was done for. Some of those folks will buy a "deal" even if they have no use for the item.

I haven't had any experience with these but if I needed a spinning reel I wouldn't hesitate to try it, amazon have the easiest returns on the planet. Here is the link to what I was looking at its the 6935 6lb model  https://www.amazon.com/Pflueger-President-Spinning-8-Pound-185-Yard/dp/B005OU1CLW/ref=sr_1_1?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1494265389&sr=1-1&keywords=Pflueger%2BPresident%2BSpinning%2B6935&th=1&psc=1

 

Side note,

Does anyone know if LTB still does that 5$ first box? Thinking about trying one but couldn't find a promo code for it. And do the codes only work on the 15 dollar box or is it possible to get the XL first box for 5$?

Just ordered an F1 Storm jacket from Frabill. I was looking for a new black rain jacket, and Walmart has them for a similar price but only in the light blue and green. Hopefully it turns out to be a nice outer shell.

 

Thanks Jake!

I know MTB has 50% off of your first pro box. I think the code is IKELIVE 

 

if if there is a first box for $5 code it's normally a "ten dollars off of your first box code" so the  clone box would just be ten dollars off

I just ordered 2 of the Lunkerhunt frogs, 4 bags of keitech swing impacts, 4 of the z-man chatterbaits, and a few different jigheads for $57 before tax.  Should have been right at $80 before the deals kicked in.

Yeah you kind of need to game the system a bit to get the best deal.  Get a $100 gift card from a reseller like Card Cookie (at 14% off you pay $86 for the card).  Add the rod and another $20 worth of stuff from Cabela's to your cart, apply the gift card, apply the code for free shipping.  You'll have to pay the $8 surcharge and any taxes but it should be under $100 shipped, for $100 worth of stuff.

Yes, just don't place the order. I've been applying the code to other items to see if certain products are applicable before deciding on what to get. For example, I found out that Navionics+ for my fishfinder is excluded from this promo.

Sweet.  I have to decide between SV103, Chronarch MGL, and Tatula SV TWS.  Any opinion? It would be used for T-Rigs, Jigs, and other bottom lures.  30# braid with mono/fluoro leader.

It'll depend on what ratio and retrieve (left vs right) you're looking for, but the MGL is only $30 more than the Tat SV, in options I wanted.

I think I am going to go with the Tat SV since I can't find a cheap right hand MGL.

eBay has another coupon for $15 off $75. The code is PREMEMDAY15. Not sure how long it lasts. Just used the P20MEMDAY code on a Daiwa Tatula Type HD. The coupon brought the total to $102 with free shipping. Half off retail.

Wow, this is a VERY good deal. Lordy.

Academy has h20 express hardbaits at 25% off and Zoom soft plastics are a $1 off per bag in my local store right now. 


fishing user avataradrenalnjunky reply : 

Is it bad that this thread is keeping me from placing an order due to FOMO?

 

I want a new crankbait rod - DSG flash sale has the Veritas 2.0 7' winch on the flash sale for $58 ($99 retail.) + $10 s/h.  Sucks that they don't do a ship-to-store & my local store is out of stock. But - they will still charge me local sales tax, since I have a local store.  Somehow that rubs me the wrong way. 

 

I've got a $10 coupon they emailed me after my last order which offsets the shipping.  $64 w/ TTL.  And I just can't press "buy" just yet. 

 

Oh what a terrible problem to have, I suppose.

They only have Gizzard Shad color left in the JR version at 2:30 pm EST.  

 

I normally can't bring myself to spend more than $10 on a bait, but for $10/each I took the swimbait plunge.

 

They are also selling the regular 2.5 oz Gantarel's for $20 each if you buy 2 or more.  Gizzard Shad and Dying Golden Shiner colors only.

If you haven't already signed up for the email newsletter - its 10% off. I signed up and a rep (through the chat service) was able to get me the coupon code so I didn't have to wait 24 hours to get it through email.

The normal Ganterel is 20 when you buy two or more as well....I might have to. I've been debating getting one for a while, and getting two for the price of one....might as well. Golden Carp was one of the colors I was considering too. 


fishing user avatarMassYak85 reply : 

Two Gantarels on their way....

 

 

 

*edit*, so silly old me checked my temporary summer shipping address as my billing address as well and so Dick's canceled my order right after 10pm. Gantarels are unfortunately, not on their way.

In other news:

Was in Academy yesterday - all of their H2O Xpress crankbaits are $1 off, many marked at $2.99.  Honestly, they're pretty decent lures, good paint, good variety, and VMC trebles. 

 

I'm a sucker for squarebills and this didn't help any..  I've got 11 coming my way now

 

(in all seriousness, thanks for the heads-up)

Amazon has the shimano stimula for 15.00 every day.  That's the rod I use and I love it.  I crappie fish more than I bass fish and this rod is my go-to for every trip 

 

other than that, I think DSG has some rod deals

I dont see an ultra light rod up there and the light rod is $27+.  But I will watch it.

 

My back is the Okuma Celilo 6'6" ultra light trout rod for ~$25 (graphite composite, cork grips, aluminum oxide guide inserts), but I wanted to make sure there isnt a better rod out there, even if it cost a little bit more.

Yep - I'm a recovering bait monkey that hasn't been fishing in ~20 years.  My old mid-teenager funded lure collection wasn't extremely robust.  (Lot of Rebel lures that aren't even made anymore).  I just visited my local and grabbed 14 hardbaits for $37.86.  Also picked up a spool of power-pro 30lb braid for $9.99. 

 

Combine that with the rod I finally decided on at LBPhish (wun3hree - Fate Chrome) and I'm calling this a completed purchasing weekend.  Now, getting ready to head to the lake.

Scheels is having a good sale. Simms drypro suit in boulder color is about $450 off. It is discontinued. Also a some St.Croix avid rods for about $150. Some good deals on a couple of lowrance items as well.

In fact, you can get more than 25% off, if you're a vet and if you use a gift card you bought for 10% off during the Christmas sale
