Cabela's is having a sale on the Shimano Symetre right now. $59.99 down from $99.99

I am tempted to get one and try the X-Ship out. My old Symetre is still my favorite reel. I have an old 2500 aluminum version with the maintenance port.

I ordered two of these at the Memorial day sale and had to return them b/c the foot arm changed dramatically.  They have a new hard, almost 45 degree angle so my fingers couldn't fit between the rod and reel to work a lure.  It's amazing how easily a manufacturer can screw up a good thing.  I'll post a pix if i can find it. My guess is they are selling these off quick to go back to the old design.

 

It might not look like a lot in the pix but it's a world of difference if you use the back of ur fingers to work the rod tip.

I noticed they are not on the Shimano website at all anymore. I hope they are not discontinuing the series in favor of the Nasci as they are the same price.

This is by far my favorite thread on the site. It has saved, and also cost me alot of cash.

I think I've spent way more money than I have saved thanks to this thread.

Cabela's has Whopper Ploppers 90 for $8.99. Only problem is they are all on backorder so if you don't need them today it ain't a bad deal. They also have the 130 for $13.99 with most colors also backorder.

Cabelas has their tourny ZX crankshaft rods on sale right now + 20% off cabelas brand merch WITH free shipping ($50 minimum purchase). 

So you can get any of the 3 sizes for $55.99 shipped. That's crazy cheap for a deep cranking rod.

Cabela's has ploppers on sale at the OKC store - 130s $10.49 and 90s $8.49. Some good colors, they'll go fast. Idk if it's for all Cabelas stores but it's defnitely worth a try for those prices.

If anyone wants to dip their toes into fly fishing, Fishusa has the scientific angler bass combo on sale for $65.  I just picked one up so I can chuck those bigger flies.

That's a really good deal

Honestly i dont know cause I just walked up on it accidentally, but I definately capitalized on it

Congrats on the awesome deal, I would've stocked up on enough pointers to last a lifetime for that price.

Speaking of which, what gen is this Revo SX? Do I want it for $88?

I looked at that SX too.  I'm guessing it is not a gen 3 since the product designation is RVO3 SX.  I have the RVO3 SX and have been very happy with it.  I didn't go for it since it seems to be a previous generation.  They are not always spot on with naming though: Veritos?

I got the 7'10" Heavy for big hard swimbaits (gantarel, etc). Decent rod, haven't caught any fish on it yet but jeez if I can't throw that gantarel halfway across the world...

I'm wondering though, is it glass or graphite or a "blend?" Online it says graphite, on the rod it says "composite," and the rod is super super thick.

edit: I realize after typing this, it's obviously some combination of glass & graphite. dumb question
