Thanks for the Heads-up, Andy!Hey guys, just want to let yo guys know that Gagnon Sports is having their annual tent sale again, I believe the sale is on until this Sunday. In the tent, they have a bunch of great gear for really good prices, (I ain't a shill either). I saw some nice Berkley and Shimano medium and light action rods on sale for $20-30$ (regular $50-70). I also saw some great neoprene chest waiters on sale for $60, regular price $120. As well, they have a whole whack of these "Daiko" rods from Japan, on sale for $10!!!!!!!!!!!!! (regular price $50), and they come in a neat little plastic tube and comes with a rod cover(a few different sizes as well, 2 piece and 1 piece, great for perch and walleye etc.). They also have a wide assortment of rain jackets, winter boots, hiking boots, hunting boots, etc for about 40% off. They also have lots of camping and general outdoors gear for about 40-50% off. Inside the shop they have lots more deals including these "Bakken" minnow crank baits from Japan, 7 for $19.99, we bought a whole whack of them, they look really great and should work amazing as well. I'm a big fan of Rapala and my tackle boxes are full of them, so I definitely know my crank baits, and these Bakken minnows are up to par for sure. As well, the entire shop has NO TAX on everything. I picked up a bunch of Berkley trout worms, pink and green, i'm so pumped that i'm gonna go out in a cpl hours and try them out at the creek. They also had a bin called the "looney bin" and there were all sorts of bass, musky and walleye soft baits and grubs for a buck, a very large assortment. So yeah, if you guys have some time, and are looking for a great sale, definitely check out Gagnon Sports in Oshawa. (on Bloor street between Park and Stevenson, right beside GoGo's pizza). I'm usually very wary of "sales" because that's when stores jack up their prices and THEN take off a percentage for the sale, but Gagnon's is a legit shop, my dad's been going there for years and I have as well, friendly people, great atmosphere and great employee's, I approve!
-I need a few med action rods so this is perfect..
Cheers,

Winter boots were a nice deal too...again, would've picked up a pair if I weren't already wearing the shoes I had bought around Xmas. The Shimano Compre rods were tempting too.
I ended up stocking up on floats, hooks, accessories for steelheading.

As for the "daiko" rods (the one in the plastic tube), they had a couple hundred of those as well, looks like the entire shipment is for the purpose of the sale.
As for the Bakken Minnow crank baits, they had about a thousand of those, so lots of those left.
Sunday is the end of the sale, but i'd suggest going there on Saturday, to make sure you get a better selection.
Amazing sale, anybody who goes there this weekend, let me know what you come back with, I know you'll walk out with a whack load of stuff if you go. I can promise you that.

I was there yesterday and some of the clothing equipment they had were nice. Particularly, the eVent shell jackets. I think any fisherman/snowboarder/etc should invest in a good shell. If I didn't already put my money in my shell, I would've gotten one for sure. They had two different shells...some where $90 (normally $280) and others were $180 (normally $460).
Winter boots were a nice deal too...again, would've picked up a pair if I weren't already wearing the shoes I had bought around Xmas. The Shimano Compre rods were tempting too.

- pack of Daiichi hooks (no tax)
- Chartreuse Berkley Gulp floating trout worm (no tax)
- Pink floating trout worm (no tax)
