I just came back from the Orvis store in Framingham, and they're having a store closing sale. I don't know how long it will be going on for, but there are some VERY good deals to be had. I picked up a lot of Mirage FLourocarbon leader material in 39,44, and 52 pound test for 70% off! The stuff is usually 16 dollars for a 25 yd. coil, and it's going for less 5 bucks there.

Just thought I'd let people know about this.

Don, where abouts in Framingham is their store?

rt 9 west 1 mile beyond 126

I got $250 worth of tying stuff for 82$ today :)

So...you got all the good fly tying stuff. I had no idea about the sale. I was just trying to pick up some bucktail, which of course was LONG gone. I'm not complaining though.

well don't feel too bad cuz I spent about an hour combing thru what was left in the boxes and I got a purple, a gray, and a brown bucktail and that was it for them....long gone. dunno when the sale started.

One GOOD deal was the lip locks on top of the shelf....$179.00 less 70%.. :eek:
I shoulda bought them all.

:( I wish I knew about it.

I need some of that mirage myself.

Don, got any extra?:)

Slip go through the craft stores in Ur area gotta be in there its the same type stuff they rap gift baskets in 2.50 for a 1/2 square foot is usual fly shop ripoff prices.

Sorry Slip. I didn't buy that much. A lot to me is a few rolls.

specialist, i know where that store is located. it's near central street in framingham. stay on route 9 and u might see it. it's close to the wild harvest market. and you shouldn't miss it. if you are riding from boston or any town near welsely, take rt 9 and go all the way straight to framingham. u will pass natick mall and such.
if u are riding from another town near worchester or southboro, take rt 9, but u will be on the different side of the highway. go straight and until u see a ski store, stay on the left lane. go onto the stop light and turn left and enter the street and turn right to the wild harvest market and park there. and orvis is right there. page me, josephtien@wyndtell.com for more info if u are unsure or unclear about the direction.

if you haven't gone yet then don't bother,all of the good stuff will already have been gone.

if it's all gone out, maybe one of you should try REI's store out.

What Salty said.

Wasn't much left when I was there yesterday. With the store at 70% off, all I left with was the Mirage and some hooks.

i know what he said. i was just suggesting that some of you should try rei's outdoor store. they have some waders, poontoon, boots, hunting gears, fly equipments, bikes, rafts, and much more.

I got 2 Laptew videos for $15 each :happy: Watched one last nite!

I picked up a lip grip and was looking at it, shoulda bought it! I called back today to see if they had anymore and the guy said they was all gone. damn! When I sat down last nite and thought about it, they were only $50 each! I shoulda bought them all for that price!

darn
I need a tailwaters breathable wading jacket . Guess it goes on the birthday list now .
