Cab's Salt Strikers are 25% off.

https://www.cabelas.com/product/Cabelas-Salt-Striker-Spinning-Reels/1432814.uts?

Voted Best Shitty Spinning Reel by J.D. Power 5 years running.
I have several.  Great reals. Especially for the price.

+1 I think I'm on 4+ years on my 40s. I've had them apart twice to clean/lube. I can take them down to components now pretty quickly. They are finally getting a little looser than I'd like, but they've still got a lot of life in them.

Cabelas has a pretty dang good deal on the Hook2 7x Tripleshot model.  I would be in the market if I had a decent excuse... Alas my Dragonfly is working just fine.

32 Degrees has a 70% off sale going on now with free shipping as well.

https://www.32degrees.com/

I purchased a few of the "Base Layer" shirts and a pair of the long johns (leggings) last year at Costco for ~$8-10 and have been super pleased with them as under layers for cold fishing mornings or under the drysuit. I am sure Costco will bring them back again this year, but this sale is even cheaper.

Man the new Kokatat suits look so much more stylish than my "Star Trek Costume" model... Alas it works perfectly well.

I'm thinking of getting one of the Angler gore-tex ones and keeping my Hydrus one as a spare...

Scotty flush mounts 244-BK, $5.22 

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001M4HT34?tag=slickdeals&ascsubtag=f11674aeec6c11e88df2065367ff376c0INT



Great deal!! I would pick one up to add to the wife's kayak, but it's a "Add-on" item which means you need $25 worth of stuff, that could get me in trouble.

Amazon has the Penn Battle II reels on sale from $52-66, a pretty solid deal for a saltwater rated reel.
