It’s all inventory from a wholesale company in Toronto that went bankrupt.

It was Maurice Sporting Goods. They “were” one of the largest distributors of fishing tackle in North America.They were also the previous owners of Redl before they sold it last year.

The Able Auction ad prominently features Gibbs and Scotty products. Gibbs and Scotty are both unsecured creditors, and while both are owed tidy sums, they don’t even crack the top 20 list of creditors, featuring such names as Shimano and Gamakatsu.

Good luck getting your hands on some. I just drove by on my lunch break and I see 4 guys setup with chairs already. Limit 5 per customer. However you can come back in and by another 5.

I know 3 guys that will be lining up tonight after work.

I guess there might have been some deals earlier than when I got there at 11. I could have bought what was there for the same price at any store. Waste of time and expensive gas.

Not even. I scored two 1106 electric downriggers for $350 each after tax. It was 50% off. The line up was huge. Good sale and glad I pulled the trigger.
