Bass Pro is running a sale on the BPS Extreme XPS trigger rods for $64.99 (originally 99$) I have 2 questions. Is there any certain reason they're running this sale? Has anyone here ever used one or know if they are quality rods? Thanks

They've been running that sale since the end of summer.  Extremes are good rods.  The reel seats are especially good.  $65 is a great price.  

I just got one, and it feels great.

I  agree with Micro and Slomoe, the extreme series rods are good for the $$$.

I used to own a couple I used for soft plastics.  Very sensitive and well made.  A little heavy but a good rod otherwise.

Im gonna go get me one tomorrow mornin, thanks for the input guys.

They offer that rod in a sale every year.  Often it is paired w/ a reel for $99.  I have owned 4 of these rods, great value for the money but once you use something lighter, it's tough to go backwards.

That figures! I go up there this morning after seeing the sale on theyre website for weeks and i saw it last night and i grab my rod and the dude says theyre not on sale anymore   . Now the bionic blades are on sale, oh well this gives me a reason to buy a st.croix

Don't trust the people in the store.  Those rods are still on sale.

The BPS by me will match the internet prices.

Yeah, you have to go to the customer service desk and ask for the internet price.  They'll give you a ticket to take to the check-out line.

I asked the BPS in Mytrle Beach to match the internet price on a rod once and they gave me this line of crap how if they did then they would have to charge shipping even though I was not having it shipped, Price would have been the same after that, made me mad so I did not buy anything,not even the hooks and lures I had in addition to the rod.

I bought three reels at the Garland, TX BPS this summer that they price matched the internet sale price with no questions. If someone told me that I had to pay shipping, I would demand to speak to someone a little higher up the food chain.
