Went to Academy tonight to look for the Ethos Nano to see what it was all about.  They didnt have any there, but they did have a pretty good clearance on a bunch of other rods.  Many rods were $20 off.  All of the All Star rods, All of the Ethos rods, Abu Vendetta and Veritas, and the Wright & McGill Skeet Reese Honeycomb rods were all $20 off.  The St. Croix Mojo Bass rods were $30 off. They only had 2 left, both  7' MH  fast Action.  They were only $69.99.  Bass Pro has them for $109.00, so it could be called $40 off.  I thought I would share with all of you in hopes that some of  your Academy Stores are having similar clearances.  They also had Spro Bronze Eye Frogs and Bronze Eye shads for $6.99.

Man I'll have to check. Not that I need it but I have a 5.2 Pro Qual without a home that I'd love to slap on an H2O cranking rod

the H2O Ethos were 39.99 and Micro Guides were $59.99.  I got a Mojo Bass.
