Dick's Sporting Goods

Not sure where to post this, but Dick's has all their clearance fishing stuff @ an additional 50% off.

Also had Berkley line @ buy 1 get 1 free.

Thanks for the heads up.

Wow, good to know!

so here i am running to one near by.... and really nothing... . for catfish that is, it's only a small display with mostly bass fishing. But they did have 25% off Gama hooks, but only found these... $3 ea., not bad.

Yea, I started to suggest calling first. I picked up a F&S Ravenna 20 for $11 and 2 spools of Berkley Fireline for $15. This was in Rockwall.

After what they did after the Sandy Hook shooting, I wouldn't shop there if stuff was marked 99% off.

Here's another tidbit.

Berkley is running a $15 rebate when you purchase 2 spools of certain lines.

Berkley Promotions

Looks like my buy 1 get 1 free Fireline for $15 qualifies for the $15 rebate.

FN, not sure what they did after Sandy Hook, but I'm sure it was probably something stupid...

What did they do after sandy hook?

+ infinity.

No kidding. I wouldn't take their stuff if they gave it away. Big sales like this are just to get people back in their stores, after their customers abandoned them for being idiots.

Yep. I've crossed several businesses off my list.

Good call guys on this one. I will never give them any biz again!


I forgot one day walked in got a few things got to the gun rack. Put my stuff back and walked out. Will never forget again.

So what's this about? I really don't shop there but like to know....

For people asking, I don't know if it went any further than this, but they stopped selling a number of rifles and in the store near the shooting they stopped all gun sales and removed all of them from display.

They're apparently opening up a new store called Field & Stream that will sell the rifles that their Dick's branded stores stopped selling, so there's a good possibility they're hurting for business and trying to lure people back by opening up new stores under a different brand.

They pulled all of the AR's off the shelf in the wake of that monster walking into Sandy Hook and doing what he did. The spit in the face of gun owners across the nation and they will NEVER see a penny of my money.

I had no idea. I firmly believe in spending and / or boycotting as a show of personal conviction!

“We are extremely saddened by the unspeakable tragedy that occurred last week in Newtown,” the Pittsburgh-based company said in a statement.
“Out of respect for the victims and their families, during this time of national mourning we have removed all guns from sale and from display in our store nearest to Newtown"

.let me start with Im a gun owner and always carry a pistol ready to fire.. but I have to disagree with you about dicks..they were being respectful IMO..not trying to stir the pot.and dont get it wrong Im right there with ted nugent on gun control..

I know that was a lil off the post but just threw my 2cents in lol

They were just being Dick's

Not at all! This is how I learn. Thanx for the info!!

None of these places handle anything I shoot anyway.
AK, SK and black powder.

It was temporary, academy sports and outdoors did it as well as wal mart, so are yall not gonna shop them stores either, the ones around here where I am are back to sellin all types of guns again

Well I think it's illegal to shoot catfish regardless.....lol

I'm just glad I may be getting some fishin stuff on the cheap!

hahaha

the AR was sold at a dick's....i call that CYA

Dick's pulled AR's off all shelves and stopped selling them after Sandy Hook. They had a contract with Troy Manufacturing to sell their AR's and cancelled it. The customers that had put down deposits were given store credit, no refunds.

Academy just removed theirs from display, but continued to sell them. Due to customer complaints, they started putting them back on display. Dick's continued to be pushed around by the gun banners.

That was my attempt to get this thread back to 'catfishing stuff'..
