Spoon Sale at Matthew’s Bait and Tackle

Monday, June 30th, 2008

I had to take poor lil’ Belle in to get snipped this morning down in Toledo,  on the way home I dropped off some of the crawler harnesses that I sell in Bolles Harbour.  While at Matthew’s I had picked up some blades and spoons to purchase.  As Jason was ringing me up, I got this little bit of useful information, all their spoons are on sale for the next two weeks.

All spoons are now $3.29 each.  True I just wrote about the big news at Bass Pro,  but I can buy a whole lot more locally than it would cost me in gas to drive down to Perrysburg.  I like the Silver Streak blades and spoons pattern choices a little better than the Stingers anyway.  But that’s just me, my preference.  Besides when you can help out a local business and they offer you a great service, give them a good look.  We all remember what it was like not to have that second bait shop in the harbour operating.  Good people, good service and support the locals first.

Two days to Grand Opening

Monday, June 30th, 2008

Bass Pro Shop’s Grand Opening in Rossford, OH is two days away.  That is this Tuesday, at 6pm.  For more information here is the store’s number….(419) 891-3900.  I just might head down to see Jeanette Lee, better known in the billiard circles, as The Black Widow.  She is on ESPN all the time when they show the ladies professional pool tournaments.  You can also meet KVD, or Kalamazoo’s own Kevin VanDam and PWT pro Gary Parsons all this Tuesday.  And that guy who likes to smootch on fish, Jimmy Houston.

Now for the deals:  Any Reef Runner in the 500, 600,  700 or 800 Series, you get 5 for $20 bucks.  Thats a buck 69 off each.  $55 Daiwa Accudepth reel and Firewolf trolling rod combos.  Your favorite Thundersticks, Tots, Stinger Scorpion Spoons or Northland Rainbow Image shiner or crawler harnesses are only $2.98 each.  Load up on Hot n Tots and Stingers for that price.

That same deep fryer that I picked up and used this past weekend that I showed with the pics, is on sale ofr $29.99.  The remote sensor I used for the smoker is on sale for $24.99.  Love that because I can be anywhere 100 ft away and I know what the temp is inside the meat being smoked.

Those are some of the fishing highlights, there are guns, combo’s, furniture and clothing for sale as well, plus many more stars of the outdoor world visiting as well.
