Stop and say Hi, if your in Cabela's


Recommended Posts

Deitz and myself will be at the Rogers Cabela's this weekend. If your in the area stop in and say hi. Both of us should be in and around the fishing department both Saturday and Sunday. I think Deitz will be there Friday evening also.

Decent deals... I know Cabelas has Door buster deals going both days... I think both Shimano(whom I work for) and Quantum(whom Wayne works for) has pretty nice mail in rebates... There are seminars both days, none by Wayne or I though.

Can you tell us what the rebates are going to be? I'd hate to drive out there for a 5 buck rebate when it will cost me 12 dollars in gas not counting lunch.

I see they have 25% off all Rapala cranks. I wonder if Rodgers has the Subwalk yet??? I was there a couple weeks ago and they didnt.

I saw rebates for three reels (Curado, Citica, Cruxis) but I didn't see anything on their spinning reels or rods, am I missing it or is this just for these three reels?

Rebates are just for the baitcaster... Curado, Citica, Cruxis... and is listed on the shimano web page as you said... Cabelas usually has other instore sales as well.. but they dont tell me... must be secret. LOL

I totally understand the gas thing.. But if you do get there, please introduce yourself... Love to meet FM members!

OK, I'll introduce myself (again) but this time you have to remember me. grin.gif I was probably going to go there after the Musky expo anyways, providing I have any money left.

Not to be too off topic, but that is such a sweet deal on the Curados with the $50 rebate. How long is it good through, I don't think I can make it this weekend?

There's an Accurist and a $30 rebate that'll fit on my new jigging rod with my name on it. Might have to make the pilgrimage to Rogers this weekend.

I made it in and out of the store before 9 am. It was already starting to get busy. I could bet by 11 am or noon it was pretty nuts in there.

I was at the Owatonna store this AM to get a Sierra fly rod. SOLD-OUT! The sellsmen shot me a deal on a Traditional II rod. I told him I would think about it and went to get some Cotton Cordell Super Spots. SOLD-OUT! So I went back and told him I would take the deal on the Traditional II rod in #7wt. None in stock!

40 miles each way and $10 off something I didn't go there to get.

If I told my wife that "Deitz made me spend the cash', she would say,"Yea,right." Pointing the finger at you DD would seem allright,but no dice at my house.Once again,asking for forgiveness is easier than asking for... grin.gif

Depends which day... Saturday I had a white shimano polo on.. Sunday I had a denim long sleeve shirt. I was at Rogers, and there were only 2 Shimano Dudes there. I forget what Steve had on, I think he was wearing black.

Deitz, I saw you, but I was in a rush and I had no extra money to spend, so I didn't need you coaxing me into some new Citicas or Calcuttas \:\)

Wayne, I think it may have been you who sold me the new Quantum PT and helped me find the rods they were giving away with the reel. I wasn't sure who was who there with all the people and I was in a hurry to get in and out of there quick, but looking at your avatar I might have been talking to you and didn't even realize it! If it was, thanks. I mentioned to you the other Quantum Accurist I have that I didn't like because of the drag, if you recall that. I can tell this one is going to be much better already after I rigged it up yesterday.

I looked all over for red suits walking around, figuring that would be the tell-tale sign of Deitz or Wayne. Didn't pan out as I had planned. grin.gif Option #2 was to walk around yelling Wayne!?....Deitz!?....Wayne!?...Deitz!? Thought better of option utilizing option #2 and just lurked/shopped instead. grin.gif

      I'm not there, so I can't tell exactly what's going on but it looks like a large area of open water developed in the last day with all of the heavy snow on the east side of wake em up Narrows. These two photos are from my Ring Camera facing north towards Niles Point.  You can see what happened with all of snow that fell in the last three days, though the open water could have been wind driven. Hard to say. .

      Black Bay had great ice before but a few spots near rockpiles where there were spots of open water. It looks like the weight of the snow has created a little lake in the middle of the bay.

      On the south end...   Thanks to some cold spring weather, ice fishing continues strong for those still ice fishing.  The bite remains very good.  Most resorts have pulled their fish houses off for the year, however, some still have fish houses out and others are allowing ATV and side by sides.  Check social media or call ahead to your favorite resort for specifics. Reports this week for walleyes and saugers remain excellent.   A nice mix of jumbo perch, pike, eelpout, and an occasional crappie, tullibee or sturgeon being reported by anglers. Jigging one line and using a live minnow on the second line is the way to go.  Green, glow red, pink and gold were good colors this week.     Monster pike are on a tear!  Good number of pike, some reaching over 45 inches long, being caught using tip ups with live suckers or dead bait such as smelt and herring in 8 - 14' of water.   As always, work through a resort or outfitter for ice road conditions.  Safety first always. Fish houses are allowed on the ice through March 31st, the walleye / sauger season goes through April 14th and the pike season never ends. On the Rainy River...  The river is opened up along the Nelson Park boat ramp in Birchdale, the Frontier boat ramp and Vidas boat ramp.  This past week, much of the open water skimmed over with the single digit overnight temps.   Areas of the river have popped open again and with temps getting warmer, things are shaping up for the last stretch through the rest of the spring season, which continues through April 14th.   Very good numbers of walleyes are in the river.  Reports this week, even with fewer anglers, have been good.  When temps warm up and the sun shines, things will fire up again.   Jigs with brightly colored plastics or jigs with a frozen emerald shiner have been the desired bait on the river.  Don't overlook slow trolling crankbaits upstream as well.   Good reports of sturgeon being caught on the river as well.  Sturgeon put the feed bag on in the spring.  The bite has been very good.  Most are using a sturgeon rig with a circle hook loaded with crawlers or crawlers / frozen emerald shiners. Up at the NW Angle...  Ice fishing is winding down up at the Angle.  Walleyes, saugers, and a number of various species in the mix again this week.  The bite is still very good with good numbers of fish.  The one two punch of jigging one line and deadsticking the second line is working well.   Check with Angle resorts on transport options from Young's Bay.  Call ahead for ice road guidelines.

      With the drifting, kind of hard to tell for sure, but I'm guessing about a foot and still lightly snowing. Cook end!

      How much snow did you get on Vermilion? 
    • Mike89
      lake here refroze too...  started opening again yesterday with the wet snow and wind...  very little ice left today...
    • Hookmaster
      A friend who has a cabin between Alex and Fergus said the lake he's on refroze. He texted me a pic from March 12th when it was open and one from 23rd when it wasn't. 🤯
    • SkunkedAgain
      I don't think that there has been any ice melt in the past few weeks on Vermilion. Things looked like a record and then Mother Nature swept in again.   I'll give my revised guess of April 21st

      As I get older it's really not just about sending bullets down range.  Some of it's just the workmanship of the gun and the wow factor. The other two guns I have really wanted which I'll never have now because of their price, is a 8mm Jap Nambu and 9mm German Luger.   Just thought they always looked cool!  
    • jim curlee
      I had a guy hit me with a lightly used 1969 BAR, he wanted $1650 with an older Leupold scope. More than I think they are worth, I made an offer, he declined end of story.   You know if you look at the old brochures, a grade II BAR sold for $250 in the late 60s, $1650 would be a good return on your investment.    Why would anybody want a 50 year old gun, they are heavy, have wood stocks, and blued metal.  I guess mainly to keep their gun safes glued to the floor. lol   You can probably buy a stainless rifle that you never have to clean, with a synthetic stock you never have to refinish, is as light as a feather, and for half as much money, perfect.   I'm too old for a youth gun, although I've shrunk enough that it would probably fit. lol   No Ruger 10/44s.   Jim
