Lidl's next fishing sale?

[ian 123]

Hi lads was just wondering does anyone know when lidl are having their next sale of fishing gear? thanks for any replys, Ian

[uvox]

As far as I recall from the last three years the big tackle sale takes place in the spring, usually March.

[ian 123]

Hi thanks uvox, il keep my eyes open around march so, i need two sets of cheap waders for the beech fishing with my dad,thanks again

[uvox]

You've got to be vigilant with these things as the notice you get isn't great - and they sell out really fast.

I missed the last two because I was out of the country.

You can also watch their website: http://www.lidl.ie/ie/home.nsf/pages/i.home.

Also, the Irish Mail on Sunday (er, I only read it for the indepth current affairs) has a Lidl pullout every week which I scan for upcoming bargains.

Their waders are crap. Spend €20 more on PVC set from your tackle shop.

i got 2 reels there 6 months back for 6.50E each, been using 1 since for spinnin, have had 150+ bass,tons of pollock,macks, still as good as new, as far as value for money 1 of the plugs in the tackle boxes, the long skinny 1 is a very good lure, and has taken lots of bass,ect.

i was given the sharkfin reel from aldi or lidl - €25 - the teeth on the drive gear were completely worn after 10 sessions - alright its for course fishing - but i wasnt exactly fishing rough ground for conger and huss - just for close in beach fishing

I got the shark fin reel and find it fine for spinning. had no trouble handling this fellow.

The knifes look alright?
I heard somewhere they had a beach tripod last year but it erodes on the sand so id say it might be better off for pier or rocks, anyone get one?

[kstaff]

I got the line last year which is great, use it on the casting reels for practice and it's fine! 2.99 you can't go wrong. But this looks great for seeing how far you cast!!

i was looking to buy my first rod/reel last year and a friend gave me a "b-square pilkmaster 240 rod and reel" that came from lidl. its the one on the site, product 7/25 for 24.99. he reckoned it was crap but worth using as it was my first set and it wouldnt be a waste of money if i didnt like the whole fishing thing. i had plenty of mack and pollack on the them but the rod is only 8 foot so after a while i went and bought something bigger to try and get out further but still used the reel.
ive since upgraded my gear but the reel is still in use on a friends rod and is working perfect but he wouldnt use it a lot, maybe once every 3 weeks. its rinsed and oiled after every use.
it came with a handy bag and a box with a few bits and pieces in it that i now use for lures.

I don't believe this stuff should be censored. It is after all a genuine review by an angler.

I agree it is an opinion on a piece of equipment that has been used by the person, there are plenty of reviews on the site saying that such a product they used is either good or crap! plus they are crap! mine filled up with water first time i used them

but i would still get a pair for bait digging!

[rex hunt]

Just on the waders, I too bought a pair of their waders and within 2 sessions they were letting in water. They'd cracked at the seams....

[eric]

lets face it lidl isnt cool, save up and buy a zippy or cono you tight beggers!! i for one will continue to buy high end fishing gear cause i can, recession proof i tell ya!!!
