SPECIAL ENGINEER Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 I stopped by one of the local WalMarts and they had a bunch of fishing gear on clearance. They had tons of lures and terminal tackle marked down to $1. I picked up 14 packages of tungsten weights. Several rapalas (husky jerks, x-raps, jointed minnows and DT-2), some bomber cranks, 2 Mann Alabama rigs, 2 spooks, 2 spook Jr's, 3 Heddon torpedos. I also picked up more than 50 packages of various sizes of hooks including octopus,spinning dropshot and EWG from Gamakatsu, KVD branded Mustad, VMC, and Trokars. I also grabbed some packs of KVD ball bearing swivels, weighted swimbait hooks and some Arkie weedless stand up jig heads. I swear it was the deal of the year. I only spent $134.19 and probably got at least $600 worth of stuff. I should be set with hooks and weights for a couple of years. 3 Quote
ABW Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 Awesome deal! My walmart doesn't even sell tungsten. 1 Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted November 18, 2015 Super User Posted November 18, 2015 I'd have had that whole rack in the back of my Truck ! Well except for the Tru-Turns . . . . A-Jay 1 Quote
Rick Howard Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 I'm on my way to my Walmart right now! Hooks for buck! Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted November 18, 2015 Global Moderator Posted November 18, 2015 Several Marts by me, none ever take more than about a dollar off any fishing gear. There's Trokars in the clearance isle that have been there for over a year now that are still $4.50 a pack, same with the Strike King tungsten. 1 Quote
SPECIAL ENGINEER Posted November 18, 2015 Author Posted November 18, 2015 I'd have had that whole rack in the back of my Truck ! Well except for the Tru-Turns . . . . A-Jay There was another 2 bins on the end cap that were full of lures. The rack was more full before I got to it. I didn't think about taking a picture until after I had already grabbed some of the stuff. I put the 2 packs of weights back on the peg for the pic. The rest were already in my basket. I might go back and grab some more. 1 Quote
tander Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 Sounds like you got a pretty good WalMart, you got a deal !!!! Quote
Super User Darren. Posted November 18, 2015 Super User Posted November 18, 2015 Almost too good to be true! 1 Quote
Missourifishin Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 Your Walmart's deals are better than mine. I was just forced to make a trip to that place (I hate going there) a couple hours ago. No deals like that, so far anyway. There were some plastics for around 40-50% off, which I was thinking about going back for, even though I definitely don't need them. Maybe I'll wait a few days and they'll have $1 Gamakatsus. One can always hope. 1 Quote
Super User gulfcaptain Posted November 18, 2015 Super User Posted November 18, 2015 The Wally Worlds here don't stock crap. And what they do isn't worth getting. You might get lucky and find something that got shipped to the store I think by accident but they don't carry Tungsten Weights, never found a Pepper Spinnerbait, but I can get 4 year old powerbait for trout in rainbow.....yep my Walmarts suck......ALL 5 that are within a 20 min drive.

I know they do a price match, it may be worth a shot to show them the picture in the OP... 1 Quote

Cyacnba Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 You are so lucky lol. I just stopped by Walmart but no deals... Quote
Super User Montanaro Posted November 18, 2015 Super User Posted November 18, 2015 1 dollar tungsten? Like finding oil in your back yard! 3 Quote
S. Sass Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 $1 for tungsten is a crazy deal. Dang I never ever see that .... ever!!!! Quote
Super User Master Bait'r Posted November 18, 2015 Super User Posted November 18, 2015 The only thing my local WelfareMart carries is shame and regret. 14 Quote
Super User WIGuide Posted November 18, 2015 Super User Posted November 18, 2015 There's a few around me, I'll have to check. In years past I've got some stupid good deals like what you're getting, but recently they must have wised up as nothing seems to get discounted more than about 25%. The ones by me don't have a great selection but between the 3 I can usually find something decent. Thanks for the post, I'll be headed to look tonight. Quote
RB 77 Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 The only thing my local WelfareMart carries is shame and regret. D**n! Shots fired! Too funny. Haha... Quote
JigMe Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 wow. My local walmart never marks down fishing stuff... Quote
Super User Maxximus Redneckus Posted November 18, 2015 Super User Posted November 18, 2015 They wont price match themselves.only way they do that is in person and u have to have a reciept from the other walmart Quote
Super User bigbill Posted November 18, 2015 Super User Posted November 18, 2015 Good Christmas presents. Quote
Super User bigbill Posted November 18, 2015 Super User Posted November 18, 2015 The only thing my local WelfareMart carries is shame and regret. Try a few towns over. I was shopping at all the local Wal-Mart's. Quote
tander Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 I have found one thing I like about Walmart and that is their on-line purchases. You can get some really good deals on-line if you look around on their site. I just bought a Pflueger Supreme XT for $101 plus tax, regular $150.. Also got a Minn Kota breaker for my trolling motor for $24, cheapest I found was $30. Crazy thing, I checked back on both items several days later after I have ordered, and both items were higher in price than I bought them for. Quote
BaitMonkey1984 Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 I would buy the entire stock of the gammmy hooks for $1.00 Quote
