Say you unexpectedly end up with a $100 gift card to Bass Pro... what do you buy? Keep it within reason. No new graphs, trolling motors, guns, etc...

I would get one of those new cheaper DC reels so I could throw a 6XD a 100 yards or a $100 worth of circus peanuts.

Buy about 12 spools of big game. You might have to kick in a couple of bucks. 2- 10 lb spools 3-12 lb spools 4- 15 lb spools 3-- 20 pound spools You're set for a long, long time on about 85% of your reels.

Hunting or fishing clothing. Maybe high tech long johns. Maybe a waterproof camo jacket.
Advice? Wise men don't need it. Fools won't heed it.

I have a running list of what I need I would cross reference that with what is on clearance at bass pro and cabelas (close substitutions are fine) If nothing I need is on clearance or on sale, then I wait until they are
If nothing I need goes on sale or clearance for six months, then I just get the things I use the most Green pumpkin stickos, tungsten weights, fishing line, hooks, flukes, brush hogs

I buy my wife fishing stuff as presents and since she doesn't fish I use it myself. She's always saying it's the thought that counts so...why not?

I would stand outside and offer to sell it for $50 cash so I could buy smokes and beer.
Wait. That’s what I do with my lone star card. Never mind.
Team wolfs I had to perform. It took a minute to get it all in my mouth and another five to swallow it all.

Genius But I don’t trust anyone with a “?” In their screen name Very wise. I've noticed the site is loaded with them. I'm glad JP has a script that unmasks the unscrupulous.

A bag of peanuts and a bottle of water, then I would pocket the remaining $1.18. Only after getting my free Bass Pro underoos or hat or whatever the " give away" is for applying for their credit card.

You can probably get 9 bags of Senkos at $8.79 a bag.
Stupid price.

Get one of those lures that looks like a little duck swimming. Or the one that looks like a giant spider.
You know...something practical.

Or better yet. Sell it for $60 and go to Academy. You could get twice as much stuff.
