They are building a new place over by Costco in EP. I think it is due to open in April sometime. I've got some Christmas gift cards to use up as well as long as things are on sale!

I stopped in there yesterday. lots of good deals, a friend of mine got a pair of womens boots for $29. They are moving to Technology drive in Eden Prairie, east of the bus station. Couldnt have moved any closer to my place of employment. Cant wait for the new store.

That is awesome they are building a store in EP right by work!!

I might take a look at their clearance sale but they didn't have deals at all when they closed the bloomington store.

Most items are between 20 - 40% off as of this past weekend. Gas augers are 20% off!

Everyone just be sure you know what your buying is a good deal... I saw higher dollar stuff where the price is higher than other stores and then the discount off of that price.

I agree. They are making it look like more of a bargain than it actually is. EVERYTHING MUST GO! (but only 20% off the stuff that matters, which is the same winter clearance discount as Lakeville).

Deals are getting pretty good-20-60%, and they trucked in a bunch of summer stuff. I don't mind telling you since I got the pick of the litter grin.gif Lots of fish houses too, they are stacked up in their boxes on pallets. Unfortunately, they are only 20% off, but it is worth going to check out the other things.

I have to disagree.

I bought a bunch of reelbottom maps at 50% off, a Lakewoods monster tackle box for $80, which is $126 at Thorne Bros. and 19 crankbaits for $40, including Bandits, Rogues, reefrunners and cotton cordell walleye products.

I have found some outstanding deals. Why should they deal on ice fishing equipment as much, it is the season.

I shop that store frequently. Before Christmas I was told of their move and I paid attention to many of their prices.

I noticed many of their items were higher priced after Christmas. In season items were reduced starting at 5% off and other items went as far as 50%. I agree you should know if what you are buying is a good deal. The % off is even more now but it is sad to see a major retailer raise the sticker price so as not to lose as much after the reduction.

Any specific items that you can remember, because I just didn't see that. Do you remember what the items and the pricing were?

The only thing I did notice is that many specific items were pulled from the shelves before the sales began.

One example is Headlamps. I was so impressed with a certain headlamp my wife bought me for Xmas at a different retailer that I thought about buying a backup at Gander. That section of shelving was obviously removed.

Does anyone know when the doors will be shut for good? I have my eyes on a few more items.

Yes it is, Make sure yall get there before the sale is over, becuase there is going to be some blowout products there that you cant resist to pick up as a angler.

How long do you think i should wait to head down there? The best deals are obviously going to be the last couple of days, but will there be anything left?

I drove across town to check it out this morning but didnt expect much. If your looking for big ticket items your obviously too late but they actually have/had some decent lures and terminal tackle left. Some things I was happy to get at 50% off were... Gamma line, P-Line, Tru Tungsten weights, Exude comidas, and lots of packs of Gamakatsu and Mustad plastic worm hooks plus a few more odds and ends. Most the product is in bin boxes and you have to take time to sort through for specific items.

I purchased some sinkers, 25 jigs and two rods all for less than 55 bucks. They also have some good lower end electronics left over. They threw a bunch of stuff into bins along the wall which sucks because you really have search to find stuff. You could spend all day looking for deals if you wanted to. If you like stren line there was still a lot left.

The sale is all done and the doors are closed for good. I went there Friday night and got some lures for 75% off. I got there Sat. afternoon which was too late. They had everything left in the store at 90% off. I did get a few things, but I wish I would've been there at 9am. I'm looking forwrd to the new one opening in EP soon!

      Might not have to wear ear plugs when I mow!      That’s a spendy one.  It wasn’t hard to find one of those for $6k.  Comparatively and Ariens of the same size is $4,200.  A home owner grade JD for $3,900.  You could get into a commercial grade Z700 for maybe $8k.   I think the work I did today with mine would’ve killed that one there.

      On the south end...   This year's MN Fishing Opener weekend was not only great weather wise, the walleyes and saugers were caught in good numbers.  A main fish gut hauler working with a number of resorts commented it was one of the most productive opening weekends he has seen based on the amount of fish guts collected after the weekend. The goto presentation was a jig and frozen emerald shiner.  Emerald shiners are a staple in LOW and walleyes love them.  Other minnows worked also, but emerald shiners are a favorite of anglers for good reason.   Four Mile Bay held good walleyes in 12 - 18'.  Not a surprise as the walleye bite on the river during the spring season was good and as of late, sturgeon anglers have been reporting catching walleyes on sturgeon rigs.   The Lighthouse Gap area, Morris Point Gap and just in front of Pine Island held nice fish in 12 - 15'.  Across the south shore, 18 - 22' was holding good numbers as well.  As you can see, there are lots of fish around.     A quarter ounce jig in gold, glow white, pink, orange, chartreuse, or a combo of these colors tipped with a minnow worked well.   As a reminder, the limit of walleyes and saugers is a combined limit of six fish, up to four of the six can be walleyes.  All walleyes between 19.5 - 28.0 inches must be released.  One fish over 28.0 inches can be kept.  The possession limit in MN is one daily limit of fish. On the Rainy River...  Some nice walleyes were caught on the river this weekend, although most anglers hit the lake.  10 - 15' of water was the norm.     Sturgeon fishing on the Rainy River has been excellent.  The catch and release season continues through May 15th and then closes until the keep season starts up again July 1st. Up at the NW Angle...  Some nice walleyes were caught in 18 - 25 feet of water, a little deeper than anticipated.  Points were good as were areas with structure.  The morning and evening bite was best.       As water continues to warm, go to spots for walleyes will be neck down areas, shoreline breaks, points and bays.     The goto presentation was a jig and minnow.
