My mom was shopping with me, so I didn't spend as much as I usually would... She saved me from that stinkin monkey. I think that's BPS in general. A pack of Senkos was like $9 last time I was there. Your money will go a lot further other places. 3 Quote

Your money will go a lot further other places. I went to BPS this week (last day of spring classic) to take advantage of the rod & reel trade in plus I had a gift card from Christmas. I thought some of the prices and even sale prices seemed a little high but then I checked Dicks sporting goods website and noticed their spring sale prices are also pretty high compared to past 2-3 years. I’ll purchase my lure/ terminal tackle products at one of my local tackle shops instead. 1 1 Quote
Deephaven Posted April 2, 2021 Posted April 2, 2021 Needed grease for annual baitcaster servicing and had a $25 gift card which of course means you have to spend $75 to get free shipping. Think it is the 14th tackle delivery since Nov...and ice out was a whopping 2 days ago. 9 Quote

I don't do a lot of online shopping either. Also, got my first JackHammer, in green pumpkin shad!!! Shipped from amazon but the package was from discount tackle. 2 Quote
FishinBuck07 Posted April 3, 2021 Posted April 3, 2021 I went a little overboard today! Bought two Cashion ICON rods and Shimano SLX reel and some tackle! That one hurt when swiping the card! ? 1 2 Quote

walleyecrazy Posted April 3, 2021 Posted April 3, 2021 Decided it was time for a new reel for my jerk bait setup. Went with the JDM Tatula SV. I like how they still use the color coding for the gear ratio that the US version ditched with the new SV’s 13 Quote

The Blue Craw color is a big producer for me. Yeah, just checked their site and it looks like they are on vacation, glad I got my order in. They should be back up in a week or two. 1 Quote

galyonj Posted April 6, 2021 Posted April 6, 2021 UPS brought me a new box full of stuff to get snagged and lose. The megastrike (as seen on TV) is gonna be a new experience, but I know I can't go wrong with a product endorsed by the creator of the helicopter lure. 9 Quote

Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted April 9, 2021 Global Moderator Posted April 9, 2021 Well I sure didn't "need" it, but I couldn't pass up on a used once Tatula 300 for almost $100 off ?♂️ 15 Quote
Biglittle8 Posted April 9, 2021 Posted April 9, 2021 This was my second days haul from the Ollie's fishing blowout! First day I only bought about half as much stuff. I cleaned out the Lucky Craft and put a hurting on the Berkley. 7 Quote

Super User Cgolf Posted April 10, 2021 Super User Posted April 10, 2021 Stopped at Dick Smith’s in Milwaukee for the first time and was impressed. Had a very good selection of bass tackle and the prices were decent enough. Got to hold a St Croix Victory and was really impressed. Unfortunately all the actions out right now I already have solid rods in the lineup. Once they release a medium action moderate rod I am all over it! The big bite smallie smashers are a bait I have passed up on TW orders for a couple of years and decided to give them a try on a Ned rig. Similar to, but a little wider, than the MB bomb shot that has been a good Ned bait for me. Likewise this year I had passed on the new plopper, but once I saw it I realized it would be perfect for my smaller river system. Then a couple of Musky baits and my wife picked out the jitterbug. Next time we are in Milwaukee I would definitely stop there again. 7 Quote
Bass Rutten Posted April 10, 2021 Posted April 10, 2021 Savage gear pulse tail bluegill/white, pulse tail baitfish/golden shiner, pulse tail trout/carp, pulse tail shiner. Gonna get my swim on next week! Ooh ooh aah aah ? 13 Quote
