BigCP84 Posted March 29, 2009 Report Posted March 29, 2009 Hello everyone my name is Chris Parker, I am 25. I go fishing a lot but I always borrow my buddies spare rod, I think it is finally time to invest in my own gear. I live in Mississauga and I am wondering what is a good store to deal with. There are only 2 that I know of and that is Bass Proshops and JB's Fishing Depot, just because bass proshop is so huge and I drive by the Fishing Depot alot on the 401, I am sure there are a lot more around. I dont really have a preference on gear except I would like to get a Abu Garcia Revo Winch reel. Can anyone recommend a store to deal with that sells this reel? and has good prices? Thanks, Chris.
GBW Posted March 29, 2009 Report Posted March 29, 2009 welcome to the board Chris. Have you checked the OFC classified section for some new (or new to you) gear? There are some great deals and great people here so have a look there too. I live in the East end so I can't help you with stores out your way but I'm sure others can help you find the baitcaster you want, cheers.
ADB Posted March 29, 2009 Report Posted March 29, 2009 Welcome to the board, Chris. Le Baron Outdoor Products has a location in Mississauga - Dixie & Dundas. www.lebaron.ca They sell fishing products, as well as camping, and hunting gear. They're prices are usually hard to beat. They don't carry the Winch model, so I can't help you there, though.

bassman Posted March 30, 2009 Report Posted March 30, 2009 You can also try ebay. I've picked up a ton of gear, and Abu reels for 40-50% off. Just make sure the buyer has a good rating, and watch for exchange rates and custom charges. good luck
Leecher Posted March 30, 2009 Report Posted March 30, 2009 Welcome to the OFC Chris Enjoy your stay!!!! Leechman
BigCP84 Posted March 30, 2009 Author Report Posted March 30, 2009 (edited) Welcome to the OFC Chris Enjoy your stay!!!! Leechman Thanks As for Ebay, it might save money but I like to support the local guy. And normally after dealing with a smaller store a lot they give you deals. Like the guitar store I deal with I dont pay sticker price there, I dont even ask for a deal either. Edited March 30, 2009 by BigCP84
Pigeontroller Posted March 30, 2009 Report Posted March 30, 2009 Brian and Steve at JB's offer excellent service! I never hesitate to spend my money there!
chukkk Posted March 31, 2009 Report Posted March 31, 2009 Great list Aile I printed it out and will have it in my tackle box
