I went and checked these out at the store the last time they were on sale and almost every one had crooked guides, so I bought a Berkley Cherrywood that was also on sale instead.

Yeah tried that too. Didn't work. It also says over 35 for free shipping without an account. Tried that too. I think they will charge shipping regardless because it's a large item.

"Select items excluded, including large or heavy items"

I tried checking out with another item that's small, like a $200 reel. Free shipping. Definitely not getting free shipping with this. If you can figure out a way around this, great price.

Tried this on mobile with firefox.

Could just grab a filler for around $6 to get the free shipping.

In reality, it's shipping + 2 fillers for $6

Quote from davelikesdeals2 :
Need advice from experts:

I am going on a Japanese cruise. For scientific research we will be hunting whale. They have a banner saying "Scientific Research" so we are excused for killing countless whales that're also going directly to fish markets as soon as we reach shore.

Now one thing the charter says is each person must supply their own fishing pole. We are hunting adult male blue whales, about 400,000 lbs of mass.

My question to you, as an armchair expert is: Can this fishing pole be used to catch a whale?

Thanks!

if so I'm thinking of buying two!
With 2 of these rods, you might be able to haul one in. 😉
