Super User eyedabassman Posted February 10, 2011 Super User Posted February 10, 2011 I did get a letter in the mail that if you would sign up for $10 you would get the B A S S membership for one year and get the Bassmaster magazine. They also said that if you mailed it in within 10 days you would get a free tackle bag. Has anyone signed up and did you get the tackle bag or is this just another selling ploy? I did belong to this membership years ago and I would not sign up for $ 29.95 a year but for $ 10 I would! Quote
TourPT Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 The ploy is, they have been giving that bag away for over a year or two now so I would not worry to much about the 10 day thing. It's nothing special but it does come in handy for say plastic worm packs. It's a small bag but holds plenty of bags of plastics. Normal price is 15 bucks, so 10 is a great deal. hopefully now that Jerry is an owner the mag with be worth the price like it once was. Quote
Super User Sam Posted February 10, 2011 Super User Posted February 10, 2011 I came across their bag in my attic this weekend. Small one but nice quality. The $10 is a bargain as you get the magazine which is pretty good. I would rate the magazine right behind Bassin. Suggest you invest the $10. Quote
Super User eyedabassman Posted February 10, 2011 Author Super User Posted February 10, 2011 Ya, I did send it in. For $10 bucks what the heck! Quote
OHIO Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 The bag is pretty small, but it could get some use it you're traveling light. Quote
Stasher1 Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 I never got my bag. What I got instead was a hat...mailed in a padded envelope. Who in their right mind ships a baseball cap in an envelope? It looks like somebody sat on it for a week. > What's even more irritating is my father-in-law keeps getting tackle bags from them, for no reason. He's been a member forever, so it's not like he keeps resubscribing or anything. : Quote
Pa Angler Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 The bag deal isn't new I received my first one over 6 years ago B.A.S.S. was giving them out on renewals as part of a gift package as well, line, Decals, Lure, a pin and the bag. I have 3 of them. Tight Lines Pa Angler Quote
Super User deaknh03 Posted February 10, 2011 Super User Posted February 10, 2011 10$ is well worth it, the bag is cool, I use it for bags of worms and lizards,etc. Quote
IlliniMatt21 Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 I'd rather have a bag than the hat they sent me last year. Like Stasher said, it gets completely flattened in shipping and it's really not of that high of quality to begin with. Quote
NBR Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 I got my bag years ago and use it for my shaving etc kit when traveling. When the letter comes to me I will absolutely send them the 10 bucks. I dropped out of B.A.S.S. years ago when the magazine became so redundant. I want to support the new owners. In my opinion ESPN did little or nothing for B.A.S.S. except drag it down. I hope the newby's can bring it back. Quote
