Is there a certain "best" time to buy your tackle in your area? I know holidays are big with TW and such but do you buy more in season or out? Winter clearance or here and there with sales?
My wife would say that I buy it daily.
But I buy most of my stuff from TW and on various forums so obviously sales and when I see a deal I can't pass up.
I used to hunt for tackle on a daily basis and many times I scored big time, when another site was clearancing their LPT formula YUM baits I got a huge bunch of baits for a few dollars a bag so to answer to your question, when it´s the best time ? ------> anytime is a best time.
Other than odds and ends, I buy in the winter and use in the summer.
i like to just find the sales and buy it when i find it.... depending on the retailer, there are always sales to be found.
i like to look over each and every clearance rack i can find and i usually can find some great deals.
I buy lots of odds and ends - a TW sale here, Walmart clearance there, Bass Pro, ect. It adds up
decent deals usually start thanksgiving
winter or christmas sales is the best deal but by then what you were targeting may be already gone
Best time to buy ? ... When your wife leaves for a few days to go stay with her mother !
Any time after payday is the best time to buy.
Well I buy online. I look for bargains, sales or free shipping. If I can't find any and I need it I buy anyway.
The best time, is when you have enough money to buy it, and no other pressing bills.
I like to hit up Dicks Sporting Goods when they roll over seasons, they put a lot o hard baits on deep discounts.
Im so in with the Tackle warehouse driver that he texts me letting me know he is on his way, and to have coffee ready.
I live in Cali and TW has a overnight for $5 so for me I would say the best time for me to buy tackle is when Im awake since Ive got stuff coming in constantly!

That's my answer!
Right before Christmas, and right after.
TW's black friday sale !!!!! :eyebrows:
Last year at Dicks I got a Veritas and a Lexa for 78 bucks and a ton of baits for cheap. This Year I will be ready for this sale and might go to every Dicks in New England. Haha but seriously they were pretty much giving the stuff away.
When the bait monkey says so...

Consult the bait monkey, I think it's year round !
Dicks sporting goods during fall. They clearance lures and hardware like crazy hem run additional promotions on clearance prices. I bought a pflueger supreme for $45 and a patriarch for $75 last year. Got a shimano crucial for $80 once and a veritas 1.0 for lime $35
Go to Dick's in the wintertime. They have a large selection and put it ALL on sale usually to clean out for the spring stock, at least at my local location.
I stock up on the majority of things during the big store's pre-season sales. We shop Meijer and WalMart. For groceries, so that's where I'll pick up hooks,sinkers and such as needed during the season.
During sales. I will buy stuff here and here but the majority of my tackle buying occurs during sales.
I buy year round when I find good deals/sales. I pay full retail at my local mom and pop tackle shop to both support them and because they have the best staff around just to talk fishing. If I didn't need to work I'd retire and volunteer to work there ha. They do have a yearly mega sale where everything is on sale and tax free, and I'll load up on that day.

Spoken like a true disciple of the Bait Monkey

Whenever your wife isn't looking???
I just happened to be on TW and put some YUM Dingers in my shopping cart. So I would day just now or right now is a good time to buy tackle I hope.
Right now apparently. Dicks has started clearancing stuff for winter already.
.
Veritas 2.0 Casting rods in select lengths $79
G. Loomis GL2 $119
St Croix Mojo bass rods $79
Revo Winch reels $149
Shimano sedonas are $29.97
some shadow raps were clearance to $6
When ever you NEED something....
and when ever you don't.
Best time is when you need it.
right now, Wal-marts around here have plastics marked down pretty cheap but don't have a big variety.
Dick's is starting their clearance stuff too
we just had a new Cabelas open here, so it's going to be hard to me to stay out of that place
