Spring Fishing Classic Recap:
Wow! Not only is it the World’s Greatest Fishing Sale but a fun and educational experience for all who attend.
This year we kicked off with an amazing sale Valentines weekend. What goes best with a Valentines weekend? A wedding proposal at our weekly public fish feeding! It was so much fun to help out this customer with popping the question. Congratulations to Chris and Anastasia. We see a fish themed or maybe a camo wedding in their future. http://ift.tt/1RsObws
We continued the week with a Triple Crown Bonus on Marine installation and an amazing offer with our Rod and Reel trade in. Did you all know what we do with all those rods and reels? We donate them to amazing non-profit partner groups who help get kids, veterans and underprivileged into the sport of fishing. So never think they go to waste! Some deserving person just got the opportunity to experience a new passion that was once just a dream. So a huge thanks, to all who took advantage of the rod and reel trade in. To round out the Spring Fishing Classic, we ended on a high note with a busy 2 days of seminars, demos, non-profit partner displays and activities for our Next Generation.
