Yea it's in store, I try to avoid them usually, there stores are pretty horrendous in my opinion too, very very little fishing selection in the Ypsilanti stores and very unorganized. They gave me the 20%off too which I think might be an ongoing sale they have for the weekend?
Funniest thing about ice fishing for me is when people who know nothing about ice activities try to warn me about the dangers of the ice...

I'm not sure if this is the same rod, but it's a Frabill Bro Inline for $19.99, regularly $79.99.  It is in the bargain cave

This is where I seen one for sale the other day. I had myself pretty convinced I seen it in a Dunham’s flier lol. I’m going to stop by one tomorrow and see if they have any to check out. If you sign up for their emails you usually get a 15-20% off coupon a week. Their fishing section at my local store sucks though.

Today’s mission is to find a Dunham’s with those Frabill combos. I never would have guessed it would have the 371 on it for that price. Thanks for the info!

They've had that deal in store for a month+ now. At least when they got them in, they had most, if not all of the models available. Sign up on Dunham's website and you can get a 20% off coupon to make the deal hotter.
i received your message kayl and would be awesome if u could pick me up 2 of the 371 reels. I cant send messages for some reason? Can u message me again with an email or number?

the dunhams frabill 371 deal is an every day price folks. they are always 24.99$ staff told me this today. there are 5 in kalamazoo mi on west main st just east off of us131 behind mcdonalds if some one wants them. i checked them out and put them back down. they are 24" and not light enough and some of the reels felt like they were failing.
because that is their everyday price you can sign up for 20% off emails and use that on top of the low cost.
just call them and ask if they have any is your best bet.

Went to my local Dunham's sport store to check out that deal on the jigging rod, and they don't sell ice fishing gear at all!!! They said they were not allowed to sell that or hockey equipment!! what kind of BS is that?

I just bought a striker predator suit for $100 off of retail.  Made two separate on-line purchases for the bibs ($209.99 -$50) and the coat (209.99 -$50).  Shipping was free.  Now to see if they actually both get here...

Dick Sporting goods has $50 off $200 right now with free shipping. Not sure if the 10% off coupon for signing up for their email also works. This deal is just as good as their black friday one when it comes to striker gear (within a few dollars).

Went to my local Dunham's sport store to check out that deal on the jigging rod, and they don't sell ice fishing gear at all!!! They said they were not allowed to sell that or hockey equipment!! what kind of BS is that?

Now that is some weird stuff haha

3300 I wonder if they are seconds that they are selling for cheaper similar to what the plano outlet store does. They take all the blemished or not correctly assembled rods and reels and sell them for around 50-75% off. That might be why they didn't feel right. Still a good deal if you can find one that works right and has all the eyes in a straight line.

Is that with the Quick Tip rod? I'm looking at ordering a couple of 30", but sounds like there may be a quality control issue by your post, 3300..

i picked up the first one (closest to me) to check the feel and try the reel. it was rumbling and acted like bad bearings (maybe it was dropped?) and not in good shape at all so i picked up the next one behind it. the reel rolled smoothly and wanted to keep spinning with getting gravity to help on the handle (leaving it at say 2 o'clock and letting it drop down to 6 o'clock). i didn't bother checking eyes. they do have a wire that extends on the tip like i use from frabill, but i couldn't tell if it was titanium because the color of it was dark and not bright like i use. i didn't care for the length nor the sensitivity of them so i opted not to check them any further and didn't buy any after going to three dunhams to get my hands on them. i might have bought some if they were short and ultra lights.
fishusa has them in 18" and that's what i wanted to see in person.

those frabill inlines are not very good the line gets caught behind the spool at least on the 241.not very good reviews when I was looking at them.one site I believe was cabelas had 1.7 out of 5 rating out of 6 reviews.frabill is probably ditching that lineup is what I'm thinking.

 sounds like the rods are decent but the reels are throwaways.  lots of good deals in there, too bad the shipping/duty up here is ridiculous.
