Chris Posted December 30, 2004 Posted December 30, 2004 I just got the new Bass Pro Shops Master Catalog Yippy! Did anyone see anything that they liked in it? Quote
thewayweball02 Posted December 30, 2004 Posted December 30, 2004 I saw a crankbait that Lucky Craft and Bass Pro shops teamed up to make it. It's a shallow diver that weighs 1/2 ounce with some good looking colors. Quote
Nick Posted December 31, 2004 Posted December 31, 2004 I am a sucker for jerfkbaits so I bought a couple of the X Raps with Santa $. Quote
Pond-Pro Posted December 31, 2004 Posted December 31, 2004 I also just recieved my Angler's catolog!;D I was a little disapointed not to see the LuckyCraft Flashminnow, and the Rapala Skitterprop. Why would they take these baits out? I am glad to see all the new bleading bait colors. I can't wait to figure out all the new stuff that I nead to get! Quote
Fatdaddy150 Posted January 1, 2005 Posted January 1, 2005 I noticed that BPS has updated almost all of their rod and reels. One thing that caught my eye was that the new Browning Midas baitcast and spinning reels are identical to last years Johnny Morris models the color is different but it has all the same specs. I think that BPS is making Brownings reels for them. Look in the new catalog "browning midas reels" then look back at the old one " Johnny Morris reels", and let me know what you think. I was surprised that they did not have any new Nitro boat models out for 2005. Tight Lines, Fatdaddy151 Quote
D.Taylor Posted January 1, 2005 Posted January 1, 2005 fatdaddy Id be more apt to believe that the company that owns Browning, would be making the reels for BPS. Browning was making reels like that years ago. Quote
Fatdaddy150 Posted January 1, 2005 Posted January 1, 2005 This is true but a couple years ago when browning wasn't doing to well they quit making reels. Then the next year they start again?? I think you may be right but I still think it's a little odd that BPS reels all changed then one of thier old models shows up as a browning reel. I think that the same company is making reels for Bass Pro and Browning. Quote
D.Taylor Posted January 2, 2005 Posted January 2, 2005 I cant say whos making basspros reels but i do know Brunswick owns Lews and Quantum both and if I remember right Lews and Browning used to be in kahoots some how. So maybe it is Quantum making the BPS stuff. Quote
Stickling Posted January 4, 2005 Posted January 4, 2005 i still havent got my bass pro magazine yet Quote
John Cullum Posted January 5, 2005 Posted January 5, 2005 Pflueger makes the BPS reels. I'm not sure if they have anything to do with Browning or not thou. Quote
Chris Posted January 5, 2005 Author Posted January 5, 2005 If i remember right a few years ago Bass Pro Shops bought Pflueger and now owns the company. They made the announcement in one of their catalogs i think last year or they year before. Quote
