I have been a very busy reader of many fishing magazines. Over the last 15 years that i have been fishing i have subscribed to virtually all fishing mags. Alot of them i have discarded and never bothered with again. There's always a couple that you stick with out of habit like anglers mail and times. Then there are is always one that blows your mind.

Advantages: Good for beginners, lots of comps Disadvantages: Too basic for most, Lots of adverts,
One of the well known magazines, and one of the biggest selling monthleys,. In reality it is aimed at the beginner or any angler new to the carping world. It is able to get the basic techniques and methods across in an understandable way.

Advantages: News content on a very specialised subject Disadvantages: A paper is more difficult to read than a magazine
This paper is unlike any other. Not only is the content quite different from that of a normal newspaper, it tells only truth too!!!
