Owatonna Fleet Farm is staring to get their Ice Fishing stuff out, But Cabela's has a large amount of stuff including houses out. Sure is fun to walk around and look at it right now.

Gander Mountain in Maplewood has a couple portables out. Pretty decent deals too.

Until they close in a few months.

The 'Tonka Gander is closing???

Thorne Bros will have some ice houses out by November. The rods, flashers, underwater cameras, and a wide assortment of jigs are already starting to be moved out onto the main floor...

Sportsman’s in Coon Rapids has houses out already! Even picked up some ice mans for the season!!

[TurnUpTheFishing]

Gander in Maplewood has some Frabills out, one is the new Magnum GT. They also have a ton of lures, line, augers, and the new Vexilars.

I went to fleet farm to buy the eskimo quickflip II deluxe for the ad price of $249. They now have a disclaimer that the printed price was wrong and it is now $309.

I thought that price was too good to be true!

[LMITOUT]

They got me on some Federal 12ga shells last week too. Cashier said the ad was incorrect, yet they didn't have the shells on hand that were supposedly on sale. I told her to keep them.

Was at Cabela's today in Owatanna, they got tons of ice fishing stuff out along with quite a few differant shacks.

[walldoggie]

hogssback, i was just at the fleet farm in oakdale today, had it advertised for 249 and the guy said they would hand out rain checks, as they were out but would be expecting 53 more. Good luck and hope you can pick one up.

Most of the Fishtrap series houses are out on display at Scheel's in St.Cloud. Gander here is also working feverishly to get their ice fishing stuff out. Last I checked most small tackle, augers and reels were in the aisles and they were clearing room for houses.

Not sure what Sportsman's is up to, but would assume they are in the same mode.

I hae a raincheck on those quickflip's from Oakdale Fleet Farm. Hoping they come out soon. They look like some sweet houses just wished they were on a deeper sled. *crosses his fingers* hopefully they will get in before first ice.

I've had a QFII for a few years now and I believe that for the price it can't be beat. The sled is deep enough but make sure you put some hyfax on it right away as the corners are a bit thin.

I was at the Oakdale Fleet yesterday and saw a last year floor demo model Fish Trap Pro for $200! It's now in the back of the truck. The guy I talked to says that they aren't going to get any Fish Trap Pros in this year?? Can't quite figure out why not.

[Kylersk]

mnfishingguy, the Fleet in Brooklyn Park had a fish trap pro for $200 as well. I almost picked it up, until I flipped over the tent. It had Green Bay Packer Emblem on it! So, I left it sit.

[JohnMickish]

Mine is a GB version as well , and if I can't trade the cover I'll just spray paint the word sucks under the GB emblem. That'll make me feel better.

For two hundred bucks I just couldn't let it sit.

[AQUAJOE]

I don't care where you are from that is some funny stuff right there.
