tip up traps for $1.85
« on: Mar 17, 2009, 07:18 AM »
So, I'm in NB, Canada for a few days and had to pick up some supplies at the local store. Naturally, I wondered over into the "fishing" department. They had HT tip ups (with line) marked down to $2 - Canadien. That's $1.85 at the current rate of exchange. I bought 5 to rig shallow for brook trout. 5 traps with line for $9.25!!

heh heh.
