some pretty nice stuff on the site...good prices too ill have to give em a try thanks for the heads up

i just got my 3rd one in a month on clearance at dicks sporting goods.....i would love one of the new models,but the current models are a great rod & i got them for $80........

just think about battling a big ol' bass & the feeling you get when you finally lip him up & have won the battle

hes right...... banjo frogs are awesome though...................

:D ;D you better have the earrings for back up cause you may need them ;D

i think location is definately key....but if you could get a following of regulars you might do o.k... i live in n.j & there is a store in a terrible location ,but they have a good stock of items & if you place your bass pro order thru them,you get a 10% discount & free shipping.i dont know how they make money with that ,but theyre still in buisness.

definately strange looking,but as long as hes trying to eat he should be o.k...id like to see him at 3 or 4 lbs.

FIRE....... do you like the rods???? is their a brand that you would compare them to??? im thinking about giving them a try just to have a couple spares, but att he same time i might just wait to see if the st croix avids go any cheaper than they already are ....

jake, your right i just saw the link on the left side of the page....

hey guys, i got a letter in the mail today from acadia sports. they are a new rod & reel co. that are looking to get in the game. has anyone ever heard of them??? check out http://www.acadiasports.com/reels.asp?ru=0&v=&f=e the reels look familiar like they might be from a big brand co. but i cant tell. im not affiliated with them in any way,i just got a letter in the mail with a brochure.. im trying to identify the reels but i cant figure it out....im sure the stuff isnt the best quality but some bigger co. has to make them for them i dont think id buy one but you never know let me know if you can identify the reels............

i love the poppin grass frog!!!!!! ive always had great sucess with them & bass absolutely KILL them....... ive heard some negative comments about them, but i love em

i dont like the triumphs because they have the st croix name that is SUPPOSED to relay quality............. i just picked up an avid at dicks sporting goods for $65 so you can get a great rod for a cheap price right now if you look around

nce setup.....im betting youll be a st croix guy for life now

d**n you olebiker!!!!! now im gonna be hunting down every k-mart in my area...... thanks for the heads up on a steal of a deal

i found this on ebay & cant beleve someone would actually use this lure http://cgi.ebay.com/BAT-COUNT-FISHULA-BAIT-CASTING-LURE-PIKE-BASS_W0QQitemZ130149679571QQihZ003QQcategoryZ31693QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem has anybody used anything close to this thing???? it looks like a toy with a hook on it...i had to post this here because i knew someone would have a good comment about it

i got the last one at my local dicks & used the $10 coupon & got it fot $69....cant beat that!!!! i have a feelng that bass pro will drop the price of theirs even more as the year ends..

my subscription expires at the end of the year & i think im done....i dont hate bassmasters,but it is kind of the same old same old.i also have10 years of magines in my garage & i dont need any more... I GET ALL THE INFO I NEED FROM THIS SITE!!!!!!!! its true.

i have a symetre 2500 & this reel has single handedly made me a die hard shimano guy.....i want to upgrade to more expensive reels but i love this one so much i dont think i need to.i dont own a 1500 but i saw one on sale & think i might grab it. you done good earl............... ;D ;D ;D

if your talking about the quest rods sold at dicks sporting goods..........THEYRE JUNK!!!....but i bought one to beat around & for the price,you wont lose much when it breaks. i give this opinion because my bro bought one & it broke when he was fighting a 5 pounder(worst time to break).he retuned it for a replacement & the new one broke within a couple months.

well muddy man, i shouldnt have said he was dumb,but cmon man if money were NO OBJECT would you use the pfleuger or would you buy the best? i dont own a stella but i have handled one ...i dont like pfleuger(my friend WAS a pfleuger guy until 2 of them broke) & wouldnt buy one,so its easy for me to be negative against them. just my opinion i know dodge guy will be reading this soon ;D : ;D

hes a dumb ***!!! thats all i can say..... id have about 10 of these http://fish.shimano.com/catalog/fish/products/group_detail.jsp?FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=2534374302036664&ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=1408474395181270&bmUID=1188611735175

i own a pinnacle lucille spinning reel...id say its o.k , but doesnt compare to my shimano symetre...it works good but it feels "cheap" next to a shimano.im not saying its junk,but i wouldnt buy another one

all i can say is "use a $200 reel & you wouldnt say this"....their is a huge difference in quality equipment & it will hold up much much better too. i used to think like you when i was using bps bionic blade rods(which i liked),but when i switched to st croix avids, ill never go back

well guys...i snatched it up. i used my $10 coupon & got it for $69........ ;D ;D i just cant pass up a deal...its a little "light"for my taste, but im going to put some time in learning how to drop shot, so it will come in handy.... thanks for all the input!!!!!!!!

hey guys, here my situation.......i went to my local dicks & they have the st. croix avids on clearance for 79.99. they only have one model left which is a spinning 7'0 medium light fast action.....what application would this rod be good for? ihave a couple avids now but neither is med/light...i want a 7 footer but i just dont know about med/light action....can someone let me know.....with the coupon ill get an xtra $10 off so its a deal, i just dont know if ill ever use it
