Super User buzzed bait Posted December 16, 2014 Super User Posted December 16, 2014 Dick's has a single pflueger patriarch spinning reel in the display case. it does not come with the spare aluminum spool, neoprene bag, box, papers, etc. just the reel as is. i messed with it and inspected closely and it seems to be in perfect working order. the deal is that it can be had for $75. Would you buy this reel as described for $75 with an MSRP of $200? Quote

Super User Tywithay Posted December 16, 2014 Super User Posted December 16, 2014 I didn't particularly care for the reel, but I'd buy another for $75 and give it a chance. Some deals are just too good to pass up. I'm assuming this is the blue Patriarch and not the new one? Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted December 16, 2014 Global Moderator Posted December 16, 2014 Without a second thought. Bad thing is then I'd have to buy a rod for it too 1 Quote
adam32 Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 I've seen a lot of returned reels in the display cases at dicks, so I would be skeptical. Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted December 16, 2014 Super User Posted December 16, 2014 Not only would I have bought it, I would have bought a new rod for it too. Can't go wrong, it has a warranty. Quote
Super User *Hootie Posted December 16, 2014 Super User Posted December 16, 2014 Don't know anything about this reel, but the yea sayers, certainly outweigh the nay sayers. GO FOR IT! Hootie Quote
Super User WIGuide Posted December 16, 2014 Super User Posted December 16, 2014 I'd jump on it! Quote
Super User Solution buzzed bait Posted December 16, 2014 Author Super User Solution Posted December 16, 2014 ok, sounds like the answer is a yes.... thanks guys 1 Quote
Super User deep Posted December 16, 2014 Super User Posted December 16, 2014 Nah, I won't. Don't have a spinning rod lol. Sounds like a great deal though. Go for it. Quote
primetime Posted December 17, 2014 Posted December 17, 2014 I had to replace a spool for my Pfueger Supreme last year and I was able to find a ton of them online as people sell models that are broken etc. for half of what the company wanted, but a new spare spool is only $12-$15 so you could save a bit more... The Patriarch is a Fantastic reel, I would put it in the same level as the stradic but that is just my opinion, I like Pfueger spinning reels alot and I have some baitcasters which are old but they never die, so a bit heavy but grab that reel for $99, Dicks is good with warranty as well. Great Find...Rods are on sale all over at awesome prices... Quote
Super User buzzed bait Posted December 18, 2014 Author Super User Posted December 18, 2014 UPDATE: Went back last night and picked it up. So glad i did too. the kid i initially talked to was nice and helpful, but not the most knowledgable. i went back last night and found the one guy that i'm certain knows what's going on and is definitely a fisherman himself. thankfully he dug around and found a brown color envelope that said "patriarch reel" on the outside of it. inside was the box, folded, with everything. papers, cover, extra spool! Was just too good to be true i thought! I dropped the $75 pretty quickly and ran away like the christmas bandit. 2 Quote
