Fly Fish Journal
2009 October 31
I wasn’t going to pay for it. I found the only copy in my local Barnes & Noble, barely visable in the “Sports” section of the news stand behind a misplaced rap magazine.
I flipped open to an article called “Eden’s Tarpon” and couldn’t put the mag down after that. I read almost the whole thing just standing there. It has great photography, interesting writing, no top ten lists, no “look at me Ma, I’m fly fishing” articles, and even a solid Head reference.
I was going to shelve it but then decided these guys need to get paid so they can keep doing it. $15. And thanks for the bluefish love.
$15 bucks for a magazine? Eeeeesh! i was looking at a wrestling mag that featured the 500 greatest matches ever. At $9, i thought it was a bit much to sate my guilty pleasure….
You guys seem to have a great selection of mags over there . . Over here we have four ! I bought one in the states called river journal or something . . It was full of adverts however the writing and photography was great !
Yeah we do have a ton of fly fishing media to rifle through but some stand out more than others, for sure.
Think of that $15 as three Subway sandwiches, or a beer at Yankee stadium.
This f-ing magazine rocks. Love the bonefish eating bait out of the pelican’s mouth.
