CUBAN FIN-NORS ARE NOW AVAILABLE IN MULTIPLE COLORS

cubanfinnor 3

CUBAN FIN-NORS

NOW AVAILABLE IN MULTIPLE COLORS

 

Did you ever wonder why people call these Cuban Fin-Nors?

 

I have a pretty good idea, but first let me tell you a little bit about this kind of fishing.  It dates back to the Spanish colonization of the Americas and it continues to be in use to this day.  It is a convenient way to fish from a boat or shore.  The angler can apply a significant amount of pressure (drag) to the rim of the spool with minimum effort, and it is very simple to cast far without the risk of birdnesting.  So, here's how they got the name Fin-Nor.  Back in the '70s, as American tourists with their big boats and big Fin-Nors traveled the Caribbean waters, they started referring to the local fishing gear as "Cuban Fin-Nors", and it stuck.

 

You see these everywhere in Cuba and other Caribbean countries.  I prefer to call them Cuban Reels or to use the term the locals use "yo-yos" or "carrete de mano" (hand reel).  It is an old and venerable way of fishing.  I know some very capable fishermen who have been using these yo-yos all their lives and they work.

 

Santiago, the main character in Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea, makes use of one (although he is seen fighting the fish mano-a-mano in the old Spencer Tracy version of the movie).  I’ve used them many times when I was younger and it was my method of choice for fishing around the Miami bridges and wrecks. Catching a nice snapper on one of these yo-yos is a lot of fun and you can feel every single move and pull the fish makes.

 

OK, we don't expect you to drop your rods and reels and pick up yo-yo fishing, but you may find they have a bunch of other uses.  The most popular use nowadays is for wrapping  rigs to keep them neatly stored (see picture).

 

I understand they are used for ice fishing up north.  A juggler came into the store and got a dozen of them (luckily he did not juggle them inside the store).  Just last week a golf pro picked up a bunch to use in some sort of training.  A friend uses them to wrap Christmas lights after the season so they don't get tangled. 

 

These yo-yos are just a handy device for storing stuff and keeping it from getting tangled in your tackle box or anyplace else.  With multiple color options, there must be a million creative uses for them.

 

Our yo-yos are available in eight colors and two sizes.  They are all equally popular.

 

Available in Pink, Blue, Red, Yellow, Green, Black, Wine and Gold.

 

Cuban Reel 6 in.   $ 5.99

Cuban Reel 8 in.   $ 5.99

 

SPECIAL: GET ONE FREE FOR EVERY FOUR YOU BUY; OUR CHOICE OF COLOR AND SIZE.

REUSABLE ICE PACKS SAVE YOU MONEY!

Nu-ice-banner-2

Tired of Wasting Money on Melting Ice? Try the Nu-Ice Alternative!

OK I confess. I was not very thrilled with the idea of carrying this product at our store. I brought it in because I owed the rep a favor but I am glad I did. The product is awesome and comes in handy for all kind of situations. We now use half a dozen packs on our boat and as I am writing this, we are getting ready to leave for the Bahamas and the coolers are filled with Nu-Ice. As you know, finding ice in the Bahamas is difficult and expensive, so anything we can do to save ice and prolong its life, is a 'must'. You will get addicted to it. Now the company's spiel:

These reusable Ice Packs provide superior alternatives for traditional ice and dry ice applications. Sub-Zero Packs are reusable for up to five years.  They are non-toxic, non-hazardous, environmentally friendly and hold sub-zero temperatures for up to 96 hours. This is accomplished by charging the pack to initiate a simple chemical reaction. The pack immediately begins to absorb energy (heat) and emit sub-zero temperatures when surrounding temperatures begin to rise. 
 
Nu-Ice packs are a great alternative to gas-emitting dry-ice as they do not require special handling, training or costly haz-mat shipping.  We carry two different types and sizes -- the MARINE SERIES and the ULTIMATE COOLER PAK. Both are conveniently packaged in either 2lb. or 5lb. foil-reinforced Mylar bags for extra durability and strength.

 
The MARINE SERIES was developed to meet the demands of Sport Fishermen and weekend boaters. The MARINE PAK turns your cooler into a chest freezer without the mess of melting ice or the dangers of dry ice. Nu-Ice creates a cold, dry and eco-friendly space for coolers and ­fish boxes. 
 
The ULTIMATE COOLER PAK is a High-Performance cooling pack that outperforms standard gel packs.  The Nu-Ice ULTIMATE COOLER PAK makes a great cooler companion to keep contents cold and dry. It works great  in lunch boxes, beach coolers, soft-sided coolers, etc. 

BTW, It  also works well to extend the life of traditional bagged ice and that's how we use it for our Bahamas trip.  

Order a few packs and try them. I guarantee you will like them. Online or at the store. At the store we have them frozen and ready to go.

Best, 

Ray Lorenzo

EBB TIDE FLIPS: SIMPLY THE BEST

facebook1
Simms-ebbtibe-flip-banner

 
Hi

If you know me personally, then you know that I spend my day wearing flip flops. It is one of those advantages of living in Florida and running my dream business. I used to wear out a lot of pair of these in a year, but it changed the moment we became a Simms shop and I got my first pair of Ebb Tides.. These new Simms Ebb Tide Flips are comfortable, non-slip footwear for anywhere a deck or floor can get wet. 

Designed for fishing by a company that specializes in fishing footwear, they are the best flips I know of and the only ones I wear.   They are practical and comfortable enough to wear on a boat and they look good enough to wear anywhere else. But there is more to this product. Read on.
 
You go fishing to relax, right?  And you surely can't relax if you are sliding on your boat deck when a wave breaks over the rail or you get caught in a South Florida thunderstorm.   The Simms Ebb Tide Flips are made with all-leather uppers, molded mid-soles for softness and flexibility, and non-marking, siped outer soles for superior traction.  Now, you may be asking, "What is a siped outsole anyway?"
 
Siping is a process of cutting thin slits across a rubber surface to improve traction in wet or icy conditions.  Siping was invented and patented in 1923 by, you've got it, a man named John F. Sipe. 
 
There are two tales about how siping originated. One is that John Sipe was a deckhand on a boat who cut slits in the outer soles of his shoes to avoid slipping on the wet deck.  The other is that Sipe worked in a slaughterhouse and wanted to stop slipping on wet floors.  In either event, the process worked, and today most non-slip automobile tires are siped. 
 

Did I tell you the price? How about $ 49.95
T
hey may cost a few bucks more than those Wal-Mart specials,  but they are well worth the price.  Ebb Tides are very comfortable, look good, and last. Go ahead and check your tires.  But not until you order a pair of these terrific boat flips for yourself, and maybe a pair for your fishing partner too.

So here you have them. My favorite flip flops and I am sure they will be yours as well.
 
To order my favorite Simms Flips, go to http://www.stingraytackle.com/Simms_Ebbtide_Flip.aspx
Or of course, visit our store
 
Simms Ebtide Flips
 
•   Non-marking siped rubber outsole for superior traction on boat decks
•   Molded EVA midsole for comfort and support
•   Die cut EVA footbed
•   Synthetic water-resistant upper for all weather & environment use
•   Approximate pair weight (size 10): 16 oz
•   Men's whole sizes: 8 - 13

Remember Summer is around the corner.

Best

NEW BAITCASTING REELS WITH A FUNNY NAME

 

mingyang

Greetings

As you probably know, we import a great number of the items sold in our store and on the Web.  Importing makes it possible for us to offer you high-quality products you can't get elsewhere at great prices. One of our StingRay imported exclusives is the Ming Yang ("MY" or "Yang" for short) line of bait casting reels. We brought the first Yangs into the store back in 2008.  Ever since then we have been working with the company to refine their design and improve their performance,
 
We are now offering our fourth-generation of the CL series of MY bait casting reels.  They are awesome reels, awesomely priced and perfect for surf or river.
 
We are also introducing the ne MC series. These reels have a whole new design that incorporates magnetic cast control and ergonomic engineering for better performance and more comfort while casting and catching fish.
 
By the way, we ‘pimped-out’ the reels with the famous BOCA ceramic bearings. BOCA bearings are recognized as the best after-market improvement for any fishing reel, so we decided to OEM them to give our reels that extra boost. We are also proud of our new packaging -- a plain old burlap bag with a drawstring. It is our way of keeping up with the low-impact environmental fashion and providing a sturdy reusable bag.  Besides, we think it's kind of neat.
 
So, if you are in the need for a surf casting reel, a shore fishing reel, or a cat fishing reel, give our funny-named Ming Yangs a try. You will be pleasantly surprised by their price and performance, and you will be fishing something different this Summer.

By the way, these reels are competitively priced, but to give them an extra boost, enter ‘YANGS’ for an additional discount when you order online. The code will be valid for 30 days from the date of this email. Order or find out more by clicking here.
 

Enjoy your ‘Yangs!’
 
Ray
 
BTW, we are selling the MY reels from their own Website. They are that special.

★ A TRUE SALTWATER REEL AT A FANTASTIC PRICE ★

 


BOCA-HEADER

GREETINGS

OK, so here is one more of those rare money-saving opportunities I like to share with you, our customers.

 

This is an opportunity to own a new, Quantum BOCA Inshore/Offshore spinning reel at a deep discount.  As you probably know, the Quantum BOCA has been the favorite of anglers for years.  It is rugged, well-made, highly-reliable and trouble-free.  It's kind of a mainstay product for the brand.

 

The BOCA is a revolutionary reel ‒ one of the first spinners with a ceramic drag, aluminum body, magnetic anti-reverse, titanium bail, and much more. This is not a discount-quality, cheap reel.  It is, and will continue to be, one of the best spinners ever produced, for years to come. Here is a link to a great review of the reel by Tackle Tour: It will give you a clear understanding of why we believe  this reel is a great buy: http://www.tackletour.com/reviewquant40boca.html

 

Well, for 2013, Quantum decided that this reel was due for a cosmetic redesign. You know, new  colors, new graphics, etc.  So, soon, the old, familiar look will go away, and the new look (together with a higher price tag) will show up.  And that is the basis for this opportunity.

 

We have a small inventory of the old BOCAs in most, if not all sizes.  We started ‘low-level’ selling these discounted BOCAs in mid-January, and have made a good dent in the inventory.  But  we need to move these reels out, so we need to pick up the pace.

 

So, here is the deal.  Get one or more of these reliable Quantum BOCA reels; you will save 20% on the price, get it spooled with free mono line (or half price braid) and free shipping.  Your total savings is way over 35%! Buy four or more reels at the same time, and we will add one of those popular StingRay Yellow Mini Captain’s Bags ($ 29.95) to your order.  If you need rods for your new reels, we will discount the rods by 20% too.

 

You will not be able to find a better deal at any boat show or big box store.  So, to order the reel only, place your order on-line and the discount will automatically be applied to the invoice.  If you want to add a rod, give us a call, and we will  help you select the right rod. 

 

If you are a local customer, just come into the store.  You can see the reels right at our entrance.  You can find the Quantum BOCA reels online at Quantum BOCA Reels from StingRay

 

OK, you know what’s next. This offer is limited to the inventory on-hand.  Once these are gone, they will not come back.

 

Thank you for your loyalty, support and even your patience in reading my emails.  I only hope they saved you a few bucks by alerting you to some good deals.

 

BUY NOW

Have a Great Weekend!

★ ORGANIZE YOUR TACKLE BOX NOW ★

 

 

GREETINGS

The long awaited addition to the Rig Rap product line is finally here!

The new sizes can accommodate a variety of rigs, including trolling lures, deep drop and larger hook rigs. If you have never seen the Rig Rap product, take a look. These little boxes makes the task of keeping your rigs organized and clean, which means less hassle when fishing and longer life for your tackle.

Rig Rap is a great entrepreneurial story. A local angler faced with a problem, designs a product, takes a chance in bad economic times, and launches a truly useful product. You gotta love it!

With Spring fishing around the corner, now is the time. Clean up that rusty tackle box and get organized.

ARIGRAP


As always, thank you for your time

Limited Time Promotion on Fin-Nor Reels

free-marquesa 2

Good Morning

I don’t want to bother you reading stuff that you couldn’t care about, so look at the rest of this email only if:

  • You are looking to replace some worn-out saltwater reels at a great price;
  • You just got a new boat and need to get top-line tackle for it at a great price;
  • You can’t pass up a rare opportunity to own some top-of-the-line fishing reels at  great price.  


If none of these options apply to you, feel free to delete this email. (But you may want to brouse through it anyway, just in case.) 

I am taking a few minutes of your time to give you a quick update on a fantastic Fin-Nor sale that was just announced.  This is an opportunity that is simply too good to pass up.

 

Buy ANY Fin-Nor Santiago, big-game reel and get a fantastic Marquesa 20, single-speed reel completely free.  This deal is as sweet as they come.  The Marquesa 20 is my favorite jigging and live-bait reel; its MSRP is $320, and it is one of the best-looking, well-designed reels out there.  And remember, that is just the bonus.

 

The Santiago is THE reel for big-game fishing.  It is a solid, proven, monster-handler that gets better with age.  The original Santiagos existed long before the Tiagras and Internationals came around, and Fin-Nor knows how to do a big-game reel.  This last generation of Santiagos is rapidly replacing Tiagras in the big-game tournament circuit.
They are beauties, with monster performance.

 

Let’s say, for example, you have been looking to replace two of your old, beat-up trolling reels with 30 class reels.  For each Santiago 30 Wide (my favorite for trolling) at $589 each, you will get a free Marquesa 20, worth $320.  All of the sudden, you wind up with the best trolling and the best jigging/live-bait reels on the market, with a price for both that is way below cost.  The savings are simply amazing.

 

So, if you are thinking about new reels for the upcoming season, you CANNOT do better than this deal.  And, as with anything in life, this is a limited-time opportunity.  We have as long as Fin-Nor’s inventory holds up, or till the end of March to take advantage of this deal.

 

My spiel is not over.  As Ron Popeil says… ”BUT WAIT, THERE IS MORE!”  If you take advantage of this Fin-Nor offer, I will take 20% off the price of our custom Charles Perry rods, so you can match these Fin-Nor beauties with high-quality, custom rods, and we will spool each reel with free mono of your choice.

 

Now, I hope you agree, this is an offer too good to pass up. 

 

So, here’s how to proceed.  If you want only the reels, order the Santiago reel online from our Web site, give us a phone call, or stop by the store, and we will automatically add a free Marquesa with each Santiago you order.  If you need a matching rod, call us, and we will walk you through the choices, to make sure you get exactly the rod you need.

 

Please bear in mind, this is a Fin-Nor promotion.  It is a package deal.  We cannot exchange the Marquesa reels and cannot give you credit for the cost of the Marquesa.  And, although we have a good inventory of these reels today, as time goes by, you may need to be patient.  We expect a brisk demand, so it may take up to two weeks for delivery when we run out of existing inventory.

 

As a reminder, we can do this promotion online, via telephone or at the store.  The order ships  free.  This is a good one, so, if you are interested, go right to our Fin-Nor Santiago Web page to take advantage of it.

Thanks as always.
