Heads-up: Bass Pro Shops and Cabela’s have launched their annual Spring Fishing Classic Sale. It’s their biggest fishing sale of the year, and you can nab deals up to 50% off.

If you’ve been looking for a new rod, reel or combo, Bass Pro Shops and Cabela’s has 91 options on sale now, including an outstanding value on the affordable Pflueger President XT Spinning Reel. It’s a whopping 40% off.

Or you can save a monster $100 on the Abu Garcia Revo SX/Vendetta Casting Rod and Reel Combo.

Meanwhile, if you’re looking to upgrade your effectiveness on the water with a sweet new fish finder, the popular Lawrence HDS LIVE 9 Fish Finder/Chartplotter is 50% off.

 

Last Chance for the Redington Crosswater Combo

This review photo shows the Redington Crosswater Combo near a river.
Redington’s long-time entry-level fly fishing Crosswater Combo Outfit is on sale at a pretty much unbeatable price point!

If you want to get into fly fishing, the excellent entry-level Redington Crosswater Complete Fly Outfit is also $100 off. At just $89 on sale at Cabela’s, the Redington Crosswater outfit is an outstanding deal! We’ve reviewed the Redington Crosswater Outfit and found it to be surprisingly fun to cast. It’s a great combo for beginners on a budget and a fishable outfit as a backup/guest combo. At full price, the outfit is a good deal, but at under $90? Wow.

One note: Redington has discontinued its Crosswater outfit in favor of its new Redington Original Fly Outfit for trout (5w) and for bass and salmon (8w). They are similar combo packages — in fact, the Original kits include the Crosswater Reel. If you’re looking for a great entry-level rod, reel and fly line combo — with a case — at an unbeatable price, nab this Crosswater deal now before it’s gone for good! However, if you miss it, we’re still fans of the Redington Original Kits, which remain a great value.

Why You Can Trust Us to Make Unbiased Reviews and Recommendations

Man Makes Fire has been reviewing outdoor gear since 2011. We buy gear to evaluate and gear manufacturers occasionally ship review units to us to test because they trust the quality of our in-depth reviews. We carefully evaluate the gear in-person and review it only if it is very good, noting if it was provided to us. After the review, we return it, give it away, or use it for longer-term updates. We do not accept any gear in exchange for coverage. We only recommend gear we believe in, focusing on reputable companies, brands, and retailers we trust so that you have a good experience, too. When you buy using the retail links in our guides and reviews, we may earn a small affiliate commission that helps pay for our work. We take pride in delivering the unbiased advice and gear recommendations you need so you can choose the right gear for your own outdoor adventures.
