crypticstatic Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 Can anyone recomend a good BASS magazine? Once upon a time I joined B.A.S.S. but I let the subscription run out. Would it be worth it to join up again? I'm looking for a couple of good publications on the subject. Especially one with less ad's and more content. Thanks. Quote
Masshole Mike Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 in-fisherman is usually a pretty good mag but isn't bass-specific. Quote
Fishin247365 Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 i like bassin and bassmaster X 2 They have all the info you'd need that possibly the forum might not cover. I've learned much more from the various forums I frequent than the magazines. Quote
Black Bass Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 Bassin- I'm subscribed through the Fall issue of 2013. BassMaster & Bass Times. I receive these magazines because I'm a member of BASS & the Federation Nation. Both are good, but I probably wouldn't subscribe if I weren't a member. Quote
Aaron Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 I have subscribed to In-Fisherman and I currently subscribe to Bassmaster becasue I am a BASS member. I also read Bassin frequently. Bassin is my favorite fishing magazine because it focuses on bass but the technical aspect of In-fishermen is second to none. Quote
Poolie727 Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 If I would only pick one, it would be Bassin, but as others have mentioned BassMaster is good too. Seems to me BassMaster used to be much better though. Maybe it's just my fading memory, but 20 some odd years ago when I graduated from pan fishing to serious bass fishing, having the Bassmaster magazine show up each month was most awesome. BTW... when did Harry & Charlie get whacked? Quote
preach4bass Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 Harry and Charlie didn't get whacked. They finally saved enough money to buy one of them high-dollar, fancy bass boats. Unfortunately, on their first trip, Harry got the boat on plane, hit a stump, and they're still perched up in the same tree as their Triton. They'll climb down after a while, and we'll hear from them again. Quote
jrhennecke Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 Bass Angler's Guide is the best I have come across. Bassin is ok also. Quote
Poolie727 Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 HA! Sounds like something those two wascals would do! When I was a teenager I actually had a Harry and Charlie t-shirt. Got lots of strange looks in public with that one. Harry and Charlie didn't get whacked. They finally saved enough money to buy one of them high-dollar, fancy bass boats.

toolpush Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 Had a lot of problems with bassin subscription recommend to just buy it off newsstand . Quote
KlubbaT Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 Besides a magazine, what else do you get for becoming a member of B.A.S.S.? Quote

George Welcome Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 "Besides a magazine, what else do you get for becoming a member of B.A.S.S.?" Constant harrassment to buy things - Monthly if not more often renewal notices - Paper that can be tightly wound into a fire log. Quote
Black Bass Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 Had a lot of problems with bassin subscription recommend to just buy it off newsstand . I've missed issues also. However, I called their 800 number and talked to a very pleasant young woman about the issues missed. A few days later I received the missing issues. So far, I satisfied with Bassin's service. Quote
