Anyone know when it starts?

Pretty much always the 3rd week of August. I'm betting 22nd to 25th.

I think it is that weekend if I remember right, maybe starts the Friday? Dates were either posted or mentioned last time I was in the store but I knew I wouldn't be around at that time.

Typically, the sale starts on Wed or Thur, ends Saturday. It usually does not last until Sunday.

Hey Willowtrail, if you at the store now, tell them to fix their poster, it would be kind of hard to catch fish without any reels on those rods

Maybe we have all been doing it wrong.

Just got back from the south store.
Maybe it's just me, but selection of rods and reels seems to be down?
Rods are the standard 25% as are most reels and pretty well everything in the store. Some reels were 40%.
Loaded up on Fish Crisp too.
If there's no more Roasted Garlic & Butter, I'm sorry.

I went in looking to grab another Shimano Clarus, while I wait for warranty shipping. Staff suggested I look at the Fenwick HMG, which I would never have on my own.
With both side by side it was hands down the HMG. And they deal with warranty in-store.
I wasn’t looking for a reel but I grabbed a Quantum Smoke S3. Hot damn it’s smooth. I was incorrectly told it was 40% off, which convinced me to get it. Yet found out at the counter it was only 25%. By then I was in love and got it anyways.
I was disappointed they told me I would have to send my Clarus in myself. Yet I didn’t have the receipt, so it’s my fault I suppose. However the manager did give me a tube to send it in, and printed out the form for me. Now we’ll see what Shimano does. At worst I’ll have to pay 1/2 price for a replacement.

In among some other odds and ends, I was ecstatic to find a Pflueger President 30 on for $60. I've been running a Trion with my Clarus the last while, but the President is a solid step-up and will make for a really nice #1 unit for me. The Trion will go to my Ugly Stik back up unit. Excited!

I was at both edmonton stores helping out as prostaff for the sale. I had a lot of great conversations with a bunch of customers. gave some tricks and pointers for Lake Trout, talked Sonars, Downriggers and lures. What a great 4 days it was.

Of course I took advantage of some of the great deals myself. Picked up a Quantum KVD baitcaster with flippin switch and a med heavy Equalizer for my buddy for jigging lakers, Grabbed a bunch of slip bobbers, Cross lok snap swivels and other knick knacks

Was a great 4 days to hang out in the stores, missed some fishing time but helped a lot of people out from young to old so it felt good being there

I was waiting and praying on replacing my 5 year old simms g3 guide boots,and to my surprise they actually had a vibram soled size 13 in stock!, i struck out on boxing day sale when i went in and had a look and i have been wading in runners this year waiting for the sale and it paid off!

I wasn't crazy about the looks of the new boots at 1st but they are just as comfortable as the old ones, they also absorb a lot less water than the old leather model that i loved so much and as a result they are dry in no time, where as the leather boots took all night with a fan on them to dry out.

I couldn't be happier to walk out with the 1 thing that i really wanted!

Now i can send my old pair off to simms to be resoled as the rest of the boots are great shape!

This is the only sale at any retailer that i always make sure to attend.
