I Picked Up A 300 Yd Spool Of 4 Pound Yesterday. I Have Never Used It And I Thought I Would Try Something New. Anyone Used It? What Can I Expect?
Ill answer the best i can. I am currntly fishin siege and have been for a few months and have had great luck. The only thing is I bought some heavier 8 and 10 lb test for walley and it has some memory and tends to coil on a spincast. But a few minutes fishing and it straightens right out. Hope this helps
THANKS! I PURCHASED A NEW REEL AT EVERHARTS IN CLINTON ON FRIDAY AND SIEGE WAS WHAT THEY WANTED TO PUT ON IT. THEY DIDN'T HAVE P-LINE AND SINCE THIS IS A SPINNING REEL THAT I AM GOING TO BE USING ON CRAPPIE I WANTED TO KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT! SO I WILL TRY IT OUT BUT ALSO TAKE A SPARE REEL BECAUSE I HATE IT WHEN LINE COILS.
Are you from the stockton way?
Well my names Jeff Faulkenberry. I live in tightwad. Kinda new to the forum. I made it down to camp though. But if you got you stuff at Everharts you probably talked to me if it had anything to do with a crappie lolol and catfish those are kinda my forte lololol. Im the tall skinny kid lolol
I Will Tell You One Thing Jeff, I Don't Know Who Waited On Us On Friday But The Kid Did One Heck Of A Job! I Walked In Started Looking At Jig Heads Couldn't Find What I Wanted. Told Wife To Find Someone Asap! We Have 2 Limits Of Crappie In The Boat On Ice! I Told The Kid What I Was Looking For And He Found Them And He Stayed With Me Until I Was Done Shopping And Out The Door! Some Of The Best Customer Service I Have Seen In A Very Long Time! I Think I Dropped Over $200.00.
Jeff Is There A Steve P That Works There? The Ticket Is Kind Of Faded Out From Being On The Dash Of The Pickup. I Am Not Bragging Wife And I Have Been Doing Alot To Upgrade Our Boat That We Got New Last Year. And We Do A Lot Of Shopping In Bass Pro Here In Springfield Due To The Fact It Is Close. And I Can Sure Tell You That I Have Spent Alot Of Money Over There This Spring. But Their Customer Service Has Greatly Went Down Hill! They Have Only One Guy Back In The Reel Department Who Is A Older Fellow Named Carl. And I Am Begining To Think He Is The Only One In The Whole Store That Understands Customer Service. I Had A Guy At Bass Pro Tell Me Thursday Night That No One Makes Finger Triggers On Spinning Reels Anymore! That's Not The Case Alot Of Companies Do Its Just That Bass Pro Refuses To Carry Them.
I Asked The Kid At Everharts On Friday About One And He Said Sure Lets Go See What We Have Instock! He Put It Right Into My Hands And Even Went Back And Helped Me Find A Rod For It! I Hate Buying Rods! Just Like I Hate Going To Purchase New Boots! If I Can't Find What I Am Used To Fast I Get Kind Of Fustered. The Boy Put Me Right On The Rod That I Wanted. Ended Up With A Fenwick Just About 6" Longer Than I Had Broken The Friday Before On Truman.
John Morris Better Wake Up And Get Some People In His Fishing, Hunting And Boat Equipment Departments Who Understand Customer Service, How To Help Customers Find Stuff And Tell His Buyers To Keep The Stuff In Stock That Customers Want. Because I Am Tired Of Having To Run Someone Down To Get Poor Help!
I Will Be Taking My Business To Everharts! I Don't Mind The Drive And Even With The Costs Of The Gas For My F-250 V-10 I Saved Enough Money Over Bass Pros Prices To More Than Pay For The Gas To Clinton And Back! Plus The Customer Service Is Better In Everharts!
Now Print This Off Jeff And Take It Into Your Boss!
This Is From A Guy Who Has One Of Bass Pros Perferred Rewards Cards Which I Think You Have To Spend More Than $1,000 To $1,500 Per Year To Keep! I Have Had One From The First Day They Came Out!
Dan
Hey thanks for the kind words. We do the best we can to get people what thay need. And i will pass it on to the boss and the rest of the crew. And thanks again it means alot. Hope to see you soon Jeff aka stumpthumper
I will bump this thread so everybody can see what Dan had say about his Everhardt's trip. I have not droped a dime in BPS since Everhardt's opened the new store and probally will not for a while. I am in there a couple days a week. Couple times to many for the wifes liking. It is just to hard to drive by after leaving work every morning and not stop. They have not ran me out yet. Heck they even let Monty in there from time to time. Bought a few packs of Bobby Garlonds today when I was in there to replenish some lost stock. Most days I just buy a Mello Yello and shoot the S%&t. Not very often they do not have what you are after. But if you need something special and they don't have it they will get it for you. Heck Jeff was hand delivering rods to Bucksaw campgrounds during camp a few weeks back. So if you have not been to check out the new store you need to. They will treat you right.
do they have a website?
Not that I am aware of.
NO THEY DON'T HAVE A WEBSITE BUT I HEAR IF YOU CALL THEM THEY WILL SHIP IT OUT TO YOU. I WILL TELL YOU I WALKED OUT OF THERE WITH OVER 800 LEAD HEADS! FOR JUST ABOUT $5.00 PER HUNDRED CHEAPER THAN I HAVE BEEN PAYING FOR THEM! AND THEY DO HAVE THE SOUTHERN PRO JIG SKIRTS IN 50 PACKS! I NORMALLY GET MINE IN 100 PACKS. WHARFRAT PM ME AND I CAN SEND YOU A GOOD GUY TO DEAL WITH IF YOU WANT TO ORDER ONLINE FROM. I BROUGHT WELL OVER 8,500 SKIRTS FROM HIM LAST YEAR AND HE WAS GREAT TO DEAL WITH! AND HE HAS 100 PACKS OF SOUTHERN PRO!
AND THANKS JIGGIN15! LOL JUST GOT BACK FROM BP I HAD TO GO GET WIFE A FISH COUNTER TO PUT AROUND HER NECK! SINCE HER TRIPS TO TRUMAN SHE IS CATCHING ENOUGH FISH SHE CAN'T REMEMBER HOW MANY IS IN HER LIVEWELL! CUSTOMER SERVICE STILL HASN'T IMPROVED OVER THERE.
WITH THE WIFE HAVING A LOT OF YEARS IN CUSTOMER SERVICE AND WITH ALL MY YEARS IN SALES AND CUSTOMER SERVICE, WE APRECIATE GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE. AND WHEN WE GET GOOD SERVICE, ESPECIALLY FROM KIDS, WE ALWAYS TRY TO CONTACT A MANAGER AND TELL THEM TO GIVE THE KID A PAT ON THE BACK.
Just want to thank you guys again Dan and Jared. The kind words are always good to hear and are very appreciated. We know its hard to please everyone but we gonna give it a heck of a try. Thanks again Jeff
I Went In The Old Store After John Sold Out One Time, And Was Treated Like A Bas%^&*%% And Never Went Back, Started Going Down To Tony's Couple Times A Year....... If They Would Just Get Rid Of That Dam Billy Goat Raiser Working In There...... And U Know Who U R.......... :)
JACKB SEND stumpthumper80 A PM HE WORKS THERE! JEFF SHOULD KNOW WHAT IS IN STOCK! JACKB I HAD FISH ON ICE IN THE BOAT 2 - LIMITS OF CRAPPIE THANKS TO OSS AND HIS BROTHER INLAW FOR THE GUIDE SERVICE. I WALKED IN THE DOOR IN A HURRY TO GET BACK TO SPRINGFIELD, MO TO CLEAN FISH. AND THE CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS SOME OF THE BEST I HAVE EVER GOTTEN ANYWHERE! AND THE PRICES WERE EVEN BETTER! LARGEST SELECTION OF SOUTHERN PRO CRAPPIE JIGS SKIRTS ON THE SHELF OTHER THAN MY PERSONAL COLLECTION! AND I THINK THEY HAVE ME BEAT!
Jackb yes they have minnows also. I believe on weekends they have the live bait section open at 5:30am and the main store open at 7:30am. It will be worth your stop if you are using the station now. It will take a little longer to look around and see everything than the station.
One Thing Jackb! As Jigging15 Was Trying To Say Don't Take The Wife With You Into Everharts! And Hide The Reciept! Its A Great Place But You Can Sure Get Into The Dog House Quick At Home!
ok guys im not a computer guru but i just figured out there is more than just one page to this thread duuuhhhh. Sorry JACKB it took me so long to figure it out. YEs we have live bait minnows goldfish leeches and worms and our baitshop opens at 530am fri sat and sun. again sincere apologies for the delay. Come see me
And yes i Know who your talking to OSS. GOAT RAISER LOLOLOLOL
