Super User rockchalk06 Posted August 25, 2012 Super User Posted August 25, 2012 I needed some line today and Bass Pro didn't open until 9am so I stopped off at Academy. They were having a close out and sale on a bunch of fishing stuff. The Bomber model A in chartreuse and sunrise craw were 23 cents each. They had 14 left and bought them all. Cordell lipless cranks in silver and crawfish color were 33 cents a pop. Bought all 9 they had. H2O brand hollowed body swim baits. 4 in a pack 6" 5" and 4" for 88 cents a pack. I bought 8. H2O brand 1/8 oz swim bait hooks 5 in a pack for 23 cents a pack. All they had were 4 got em all. This was the icing on the cake. Packs of 1/16 oz brown and green shaky head jigs. 5 in a pack. 1 cent per pack. Got all 15. GY senkos 5" green pumpkin with black and gold flake for 88 cents a pack. Bought all 12. Same brand and color as above in 5" Senko swims for 88 cents a pack. Bought all 6. Guy said they have sales like that all the time. There is still a shet pot of stuff left if anyone is interested. It's the Academy in Edmond Oklahoma Quote
Jake P Posted August 25, 2012 Posted August 25, 2012 I am about to head to The Texas/ OK border for work in about an hour......Nah i dont feel like driving up to edmond lol. Seriously though, Academy is always having sales. Not too long ago they had the super spots on sale for 99 cents each and the SK Red Eye Shad for 1.99$. I think i spent 40 bucks and bought almost all of them. Quote

Super User rockchalk06 Posted August 25, 2012 Author Super User Posted August 25, 2012 You made a killin' I think so. I am pretty happy with what I got. Should last for awhile. I am about to head to The Texas/ OK border for work in about an hour......Nah i dont feel like driving up to edmond lol. Seriously though, Academy is always having sales. Not too long ago they had the super spots on sale for 99 cents each and the SK Red Eye Shad for 1.99$. I think i spent 40 bucks and bought almost all of them. Ah, its only a few miles from this point forward i'm only looking for sales like u found. everything else can wait till the black friday 20% sales. if we had academy sports up here i'd hightail it over there I am going to do the same anymore. I have been buying one or two things per paycheck and slowly stocking up. I spent less yesterday and got 20 times as much as I normally do at full retail Quote

Super User rockchalk06 Posted August 30, 2012 Author Super User Posted August 30, 2012 I went back again today. Found zoom worms like the Rage anaconda's in 10 packs for 48 cents. Found the "bait" brand senkos in about 10 different colors for 48 cents a pack too. Also found about 12 packs of green pumpkin with gold and black flake 3.5" Stike King tubes for 12 cents a 6 pack. These are the coffee sent and heavy salt. By god if your into fly fishing, there is flys line etc dirt cheap there too. Quote
buzzfrog Posted August 30, 2012 Posted August 30, 2012 why is it so dang cheap, heck that is below cost, id think, Quote
Super User rockchalk06 Posted August 30, 2012 Author Super User Posted August 30, 2012 They are closing out of certain colors. They drop the price big time to make room. On the bomber cranks, they said Bomber discontinued the color. Quote

There were a ton of people in there today. I went and exchanged a reel today. There were still a bunch of the stick baits left but most of the crank bait deals were sold out. Quote
