I got bumped on my Delta flight for $800. Now the hard part is what gift card to pick and what to buy. Best gift card choices are amazon and American Express rewards. Does a guy buy a new ion auger that I would never buy straight up for cash or do I go with a new fl 28? Tough decisions ahead! What would you guys do?

That's a tough one. Especially because you can't shoot either one. Seriously I really really like my battery auger. I have had it for three years now. I can't say I have dug that many holes, but it sure does a good and fast job when I do. What I am most impressed with is I have bad luck with batteries. I don't take care of it and check to make sure it has a charge and the original battery is still good.

In all honesty I think nobody runs a decent sale as they know gift cards will be used. I fished next to a 28 1st neither of us caused interference. I will never own another flasher period. I will take a pick. But with my zoom on full and camera looking at both jigs my cheapest graph showed bugs better. Show distance to bottom with better separation perch comming in an and out of view were easier to read. Vex overrated old technolgy.

Well don't forget we have now crested the ridge and days will start getting longer and soon temps warmer so remember spring stuff can often be found cheap right now. Guy can find a nice grill for half price if you look or many other summer fishing and grilling toys. Plus at our current rate we'll be lucky if we can get through the snow to get anywhere near the lakes anymore anyways.

I would love the electric auger. Personally I have the vex 18 and it has all the features I use, and works the same as the 28. If it broke I would go with a new 28, otherwise them electric augers are the cats ass
