My local outdoor store is having their anual sidewalk sales this weekend (Jays in Clare, MI). Scored a Shimano Sedona 1000 for $40. Can't wait to use it on my TUCR Bullwhip this season.

Just an FYI for anyone in my area. Gander mountain in Coldwater Michigan posted today that July 29th will be their closing date. Ice fishing gear is still 70% off and they still have a pretty large selection of tackle.

Eskimo Mako 43cc 8" Auger.  $255.99.  Not the best price ever, but darn close!  A solid buy at this price.

https://www.amazon.com/Eskimo-Mako-8-Inch-Quantum-Auger/dp/B000LZN6XW/ref=pd_ybh_a_163?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=ZKT0JKT01XZHT67NQWK5

Marcum LX-7 @ $620.49.  Again, not the best price ever, but still a solid deal at $109.50 off high retail.

13 Fishing Widow Maker Ice Rod 32" Medium - Evolve Engage-2 Reel Seat, Black  $34.37  A great buy at this price!  Only cheaper once previously!  Great walleye rod on the cheap!

Vexilar FL-22 12-Degree Puck Depth Finder - $307.64  A steal at this price.  Head unit and transducer only.

looks like the FL-22 is down to $219!!!  Don't know a lot about Vexilars but that seems insanely cheap.  Are the FL-22's discontinued?

I believe they are, but a great deal just the same.  You could build an Fl-22 UltraPack including the Tri-beam ducer and carry bag a la carte for around $400.  A ProPack for even less...

The Widow Maker rods in the same post got down to $22.95 before someone bought one and blew up the deal.  Wish I had needed one...

Well, if you haven't checked out your local Gander mountain location it is getting close to the end.  Stores are closing the 30th here in West MI..  Went to our local store (Grandville, MI) all ice stuff is 90% off and 70% off everything else with the exception of ammo that was 50%.  I was surprised to see still quite a few things left ice related and picked up a few buckshot spoons, puppet minnows, random lindy jigs, a few tungsten, a few random terminal tackle and gulp along with some big lake trolling spoons and reloading goodies for $24 dollars.  I am sad for the few long term employees who stuck it out between the increase competition from Cabelas and other stores, the change over to gun-world and eventually back to Gander and stayed through liquidation.  Many of these people I knew for almost 10-15 years and I hope the best for them.

Nice, love my cleos but we all know that ol man river loves them to as I probably lose  2/3 to snags/bottom each time out lol...  Yeah I also picked up one of the frabill travel covers as they only had a few left it looks a little long but I hope it fits my shappell fx100.  Also an auger extension for my strikemaster power auger in case I ever need one.  Saw the lead making stuff and wish I would of picked some up one as they were gone the last time I came.  I think I am done unless I hear they close out the rest of the non-ice related for more but I still have a bunch of tackle when they liquidated back in 2013 when they changed over to gun world, lol.

I haven't used Cleos since I lived outside of Fennville and you could fish off the south pier in Holland back in the 80's...   But I did catch my first king on one....
I'm sure I have a few trays left that I will never use and you guys are welcome to them for free..
I will try to find them and take some photos....

If Doc doesn't want them and you don't need them I will certainly take them.  They are a great bait and work on almost all game fish.  It is a rush to have a early king smash one in the pier, channel or river.  Anything you looking for that you might need? I have a bunch of random tackle still around even though I am starting to thin my inventory a little bit before I end up sleeping in the garage with it all per the wife.. ;)

Man you just cost me $132.00.  Thanks for the heads up.  Been wanting to buy one and couldn't justify the cost.  Back up to over $400 now.

Think most all Gander Stores are out of like flashers/augers/shelters being they went 60% off.  About all that is left in my store are the jigs, that have been picked over.

What's wrong with this deal?

That's about 50% less than they go for. Amazon has the 6" for $37.00.

I'll let you guys know, I ordered a pair.
