I was in yesturday.
everything appered to be 10% off.
gotta be sharp, my advice would be to take the 2008 fishing hole price guide(they have plenty there) but compare all of the tagged prices to the book.
I picked up 2 rods yesturday that were tagged $10.00 more than what the were listed in the book for.
Not a big deal but when your bargin hunting every dollar counts right?
all in all not to bad.

ill admit i was a kid in a candy shop when i found that rod ! and the free huge Quantum rod case is great!! When i use that rod, there will be little white flags all over the water, of fish giving up even before i tie on a lure.
LOL, BBJ, i remember the day i towered over you in elementary. Now make me a Sammich!!!
put the New Quantum Tour PTi20 spinning reel on the Shaw GrisbyPT Sig rod i had at home waiting for the right reel. That reel was worth the wait to save a tad of money, and get some free line i guess. the other odds and ends were a good buy.
I give the show 9 out of 10, only cuz they didnt have Mini donuts or corndogs!! LOL Wish "The Fishing Center" would throw on a seperate show as well, away from the Edmonton Boat SHow.

I found the sale at the mayfield as far as the fishing hole went to have some good prices. I picked up a quantum energy pt baitcast reel and with the mail in rebate I saved over 50% off the org. price. If you purchased the reel at the fishing hole booth and then went over to the quantum booth and showed them your receipt they gave you the mail in rebate sheet as well as 2 spools of line. Great deal. The only store that does not give any great deals that I can see is campers village 10% is not a great deal.
Can anyone tell me where to find the fishing center?

Owner of a promotional rod bag also
That big Quantum rod bag seems too big. You would have to have 25 rods in it to support the thing. Unless I am not picturing the proper use for it.
