Bass Pro Shops has officially announced the dates for their annual Reel Trade In event.
The event will begin on February 24th, the same day as the Bassmaster Classic, and will run until February 29th.
In Canada, the dates are March 9th-March 14th.
If you are looking for a new reel, this is the time to get it. The way it works is pretty simple—you trade in your old reel, and you get up to $100 toward the value of a new one, which is already discounted due to the Spring Fishing Classic!
If you are having a little trouble figuring out which reel to get into, here are three of our top picks for this year…
Abu Garcia Revo MGX
This reel features a one piece X-Mag allow frame with carbon sideplates, only weighs 5.4 ounces, and has a new braking system that features 28 levels of external adjustment.
At this time, it is only available in right-hand retrieve.
Daiwa T3 Casting Reel
