The Cheapskate Kayak Fisherman - Deals Thread

I got the last left hand one in Tigard and the last Ugly Stick UL (which seems very nice). They have one right hand on left. Pretty sweet Kokanee setup and a good reel when the significant other comes along

I picked up 2 Lexa100 LC today    Woo Hoo!  Let's catch some fishes.

Shimano Stradic Ci4+ - 15% off and an extra 10% off your first purchase if you sign up for their email flyer.  I just got a 2500 and it arrived within 1 week with free shipping - $175 total for a reel that has an MSRP of $225.  Not too shabby.  Presently they have 1000, 2500, and 3000 models in stock.

This shop is out of Indiana and it appears that they are well reviewed and have a solid online market base.  I am very happy with my purchase from Legacy American Fishing, especially given my recent experience with our local Sportsman's Warehouse stores (never shopping at that chain again).

I'll just add that I've purchased several reels from this outfit and have been more than happy with them and their customer service. I had purchased a left hand Shimano Casitas baitcaster and unfortunately they sent me a right hand model, upon letting them know they sent me next day air the lefty along with a shipping label to send back the other one. To me getting everything perfect is not a reality these days, it's how you respond to issues that earn my business. I still prefer to support local businesses when possible but finding left hand reels can be challenging sometimes.

Perfect time of year for a good deal on fish cleaning tables.  Never wonder about the sanitation level of a public fish cleaning surface again.  Your choice of 6 or 4 foot,  $29.99.

Here's a good deal for the Saltist line of reels, I don't personally own one, but used one on a charter and thought it was pretty nice. Unfortunately there's no lefty reels.

Not mine. It's a good deal if you wear a medium drysuit.  Kokatat, gortex, $275.

Sierra trading has daiwa saltiest star drag for 25% off. The 15 size.

Bimart in Beaverton (off B-H Hwy and Western Ave.) had A large selection of 9-6 and 10-6 H and XH Buzz Ramsey Air trolling rods that are now discontinued for 60 each.    A couple of steelhead spinning rods from the same series mixed in too.

Okuma has a closeout sale on some items.  Good deals look like some salt water rods for under 50.  The Coldwater LP 450 size for 95 bucks looks like the best deal though.  Thats usually the Blackfriday sale price locally for the 350 size 

Bi Mart's Black Friday flyer lists all Lamiglas fishing rods for $59.99. I suppose that is the "Cascade Pro" line they have had. Also, Big Chief smokers for $80. Those seem like good prices.

They usually have the red and sometimes the white Lami kokanee rods.  I think they also usually have some out of the Lami classic glass series.  They may also stock the regular X11, but I think the cascade pro is essentially a private label of the X11

I picked up a couple of the coldwater 450's low profile reels.  Nice price on the reels but you need to order them directly from Okuma in California.  There is a $15 "shipping" charge per reel.   

Fisherman's Marine and Outdoor will have Promar TR-530K crab traps (including poly line and buoy) for $74.88 on Friday.  Normal price everywhere is typically $130.  They'll also have some unadvertised stuff on sale in store too. 

Fish field has daiwa harrier rods for 65. Lowest price I have seen on those. Now I need a new reel to pair with it....
