Deal of the Day

[Clive]

For all of my fellow Canadians - Canadian Tire has a solid Abu spinning combo on sale for 60% off the normal price - was 79.99 and now only $29.99

Deal indeed! Looks like the perfect starter set for just about anybody.

that's a pretty nice deal!

If I didn't already have so many rods with (relatively) crappy reels, I'd definitely get the combo!

Also, does anyone feel that on these rod/reel combos, the rod is always pretty good, but the quality of the reel is below average. I recently got 2 rod/reel combos, and both of the reels are pretty bad compared to the rods.

I agree about the reel quality, but Abu reels usually last, even when low quality!

The rod alone has got to be worth $25 anyway!
