American Legacy Fishing Company – NEWS FLASH – August 16, 2009

“World’s Best Fishing Gear – World’s Best Service” 

 

New G. Loomis Rods, 25 Revo Premier Casting Reels left (They’re now “FREE”), and a few Thoughts……

Hi Friends,

 

I am constantly amazed at just how wonderful the fishing community really is. We have made so many great friends since we opened this business! Having a common interest surely contributes to this, but there is something much greater out there as well. We are all so blessed to have access to nature’s bounty and beauty every day. Being on the water at dawn, smelling the freshness of the new day, experiencing wildlife in its natural environment, and just getting away from the daily grind gives us all a sense of  peace and appreciation for the non-material things that are really the most important. Reflecting on our family, friends, and God’s gifts to us is something we all do too little of, so when that opportunity presents itself we become better. I hope we in some small way contribute to this by offering the tools necessary to make these rare times memorable.

 
Your response to our Revo Premier Casting reel deal has, to say the least, been phenomenal. We have gone through almost 300 reels. The left hand models were gone within a few days and the right hand models disappeared shortly after that. BUT, we did manage to get a few more of both the Left Hand and Right Hand models from the factory. If you missed this UNBELIEVABLE SPECIAL or we told you we ran out Now is Your Chance! See the information below and ACT NOW if you still want to save $120 off a $260 top-of-the-line casting reel. You Must mail the rebate coupon NO Later Than September 4, 2009. Or see below how this reel can be “Free”.

 Speaking of great news, how about 45 NEW G. Loomis Rods? We have listed all the details below with Complete Specifications, Pricing, and Delivery Estimates. We had the opportunity to play with these rods at ICAST in July and can only say “WOW”. The quality, weight, and strength is absolutely unbelievable. Just how Gary Schafer, Steve Rajeff, and the whole Loomis gang keep coming up with great rods is just amazing. These new models just add to the Loomis mystique for making some of the best rods on the planet.

 
Now some less-than-good news: G. Loomis will Discontinue ALL BLANKS as of December, 2009. Yes, we have ordered a large supply of Loomis Blanks, but after December we will not be able to do this. If You Are A Rod Builder be sure you “order up” now to make sure your requirements will be met. We’re here to assist you any way we possibly can. Just drop us a note at [email protected] and let us know what you need. The sooner the better.

 We are experiencing a cooler than normal August here in normally steamy Southern Indiana (knock wood) with mild temperatures and gentle breezes. Our Pros have been on the water often and are doing great in tournaments although the first place trophies have proven to be somewhat elusive. We know they are out there trying so it may just be a matter of time. Stay tuned…

 Finally, a very sincere “thank you” to all of our friends and customers who have written us such nice thank you notes and poured compliments on us this month. We really appreciate hearing from you and sincerely appreciate knowing we are meeting your expectations. YOU are the reason we are here. Thanks.

 Tight Lines,
 
Tom Ashby

G. Loomis Introduces 45 NEW ROD MODELS……….

The G. Loomis factory continues to amaze us with wonderful new models. This year we have been even MORE impressed! There are 45 new rods due to be released around October 1, 2009 (fingers crossed) that are wonderful additions to what is already the world’s largest and best line of fishing rods. Here are the new models with complete specifications, prices, and our take on these “newbies”:

Swimbait Rods:

This new Swimbait rod was introduced earlier this year and is in stock. We needed a lighter power rod for those smaller swimbaits and now we have one. Great stick!

Crankbait “Deep Flex” Series:

Just what it says – deep flex. Backbone starts about the 5th guide from the tiptop. Another needed addition to the Crankbait Series of rods.  This should be a “must have” rod for tournament fishermen. 
 

 

Top Water Series:

Oh Boy! We can’t wait to start selling these awesome rods! Wonderfully light, responsive, and everything you would expect from a new series such as this. Try them, you’ll like them!

Jerkbait Series: 

Another completely new series, these shorter rods should be wonderful for those fishing jerkbaits. Lots of control with plenty of backbone. Can’t wait!

 

Walleye Series: 

This whole series has been redesigned. The non-GLX rods are about the same as those currently available, but look at all the GLX models! Now you actually have a choice for super-sensitive finesse styles when fishing walleye. Yea!

Muskie Series:

 

The Long Awaited Muskie Series has arrived (kinda’) and we have some of these now in stock. A year late, they are magnificent rods and unlike any others we have seen. The super power of these rods makes them a very desirable rod for the current Muskie fishing techniques.

Escape GLX Series:

Basically these two rods replace the HSR9000-3S GLX and the PR844-3S GLX travel rods. We hope this portends of the beginning of an expanded line of GLX travel rods. Bad news is the prices have increased by almost 30% over the older models.

Pro Green Series:

ICAST “BEST OF SHOW” for a saltwater rod! Absolutely AWESOME Series! All spinning rods. All lighter line/lure weights. Unbelievable strength! Perfect for flats, docks, shore, or just about anywhere you want to have some fun with smaller fish or larger ones if you have the time. Light as a feather as well.

Czech Nymph Series Fly Rods:

Check out the specs! 10 ft long, 3 and 4 line weight! Fast taper and EXTRA-Stiff power! WOW! I do believe you should be able to cast these rods several miles! Substantial skill set required.

RoaringRiver NEW GLX Stinger Series:

A nice upgrade to an already fantastic fly rod series. Truly the world’s BEST two-handed Spey rod – hands down already, this upgrade will make the unbeatable even better. Yea Rah Steve Rajeff!

Dredger Midrange Series:

We know very little about this new series. Pricing is yet to be determined as is final design such as the style handles. Right now delivery is unknown as well.
 
Delivery: The G. Loomis factory’s official delivery date is October 1, 2009. We plan to only list these new rods on our web site after we have received them. If you are interested in reserving one or more of these new models just drop us a note at [email protected] with your complete name, address, and telephone number and we will notify you as soon as they arrive. You can pay for them at that time.
 
Overall, we couldn’t be happier with these new rods and the comfort that comes from knowing G. Loomis continues to be the most innovative rod manufacturer in the world today. Kudos to Gary Schafer, Steve Rajeff, Jim Lebson, and the entire G. Loomis team for their continued efforts to innovate and improve. Bravo!

The Abu Garcia REVO PREMIER Casting Reel $139.99 net (with rebate) or FREE if you go with the Wiley $160 Sunglasses offer………..

How about a FREE Abu Garcia REVO PREMIER ($259.99 retail)  REEL? Well, if you buy one or two of these reels (RH or LH) for $159.99 and send in the FREE Wiley Sunglasses coupon (they’re a $160 value) basically you are getting the REEL or the SUNGLASSES FREE! Right? Hey, this worked on MY wife! We just realized that you have 2 choices when you buy this Top-of-the-Line Abu Garcia Revo Premier Reel. A $20 factory Rebate Coupon (Click Here) or a FREE $160 Pair of Wiley X Sunglasses Coupon (Click Here). Even if there were no rebate or sunglasses this is a HECK of a DEAL at $159.99 ($100 OFF). With the rebate or the sunglasses it’s a NO BRAINER!

 SO……, we have about 25 Right Hand and 25 Left Hand reels left in stock. After they are gone IT’S OVER. Nada, Zip, The End. So Please, if you need a Great, Top-of-the-Line Casting reel ORDER NOW. CLICK HERE and Hurry! To get your reel(s) and Sunglasses or Rebate before they are gone!

Two New Products You Need (and really shouldn’t be without)…………………


FIRST:

We Discovered this Patented Fishhook Removal Kit at ICAST this year and our first reaction was, “Why Didn’t I Think of That?” Designed and Patented by an emergency room physician in Northern Minnesota (who has seen LOTS of imbedded fishhooks in fishermen) this is a real MUST HAVE in Any Fisherman’s Tackle Box! All of us why pursue the wiley bass, crappie, snook, walleye, etc. have at least one story about someone (possibly ourselves) getting hook while fishing. Odds are that whatever we did WASN’T RIGHT and possible we caused MORE HARM THAN GOOD. We may not have had the tools or known the “Correct Way” to remove an imbedded hook. THIS SOLVES THAT!

When you think about how much money we all spend fishing, whether flying to a secluded fly-in camp or just launching the boat at our favorite fishing spot, it’s just CRAZY NOT TO HAVE ONE or TWO of THESE IN OUR TACKLE BOX. I mean, $10 is CHEAP INSURANCE! There’s also a Inexpensive, $15 DVD that you should buy as well just so you can see how it’s done. Really, who in their right mind would NOT buy a few of these to save a fishing trip? You spend $100’s on rods and reels and you’re too cheap to buy this. We should report you to your wife!!

NEXT:

The Accessory “PRODUCT OF THE YEAR” from the 2009 ICAST Show.Always looking for “The World’s Best Fishing Gear” We have found THE BEST Sunglasses Lanyard (retainer) Ever! If you’re tired of the lanyard lying on your neck, itching and irritating as it lays there, then We Have A Solution!
