Super User Grey Wolf Posted December 23, 2009 Super User Posted December 23, 2009 Bassin if I were inclined to buy, which I don't any more. Quote
Super User senile1 Posted December 23, 2009 Super User Posted December 23, 2009 On previous threads about magazines there have always been complaints about the delivery of Bassin' for those who have subscriptions. Is this still a problem or have they corrected it? Quote
knappy Posted December 24, 2009 Posted December 24, 2009 i like alot of them such as bassin, bass masters, and northern american fisherman, i dont see why some people dont like them? i love them Quote
bassdoctor88 Posted December 24, 2009 Posted December 24, 2009 Bassin is the best. FLW is second. Bassmaster is third. Quote
Super User Sam Posted December 24, 2009 Super User Posted December 24, 2009 senile1, Yes, still a problem. They are going to six copies a year which should help them get their act together. If I don't receive a copy in a while I give 'em a call and they either tell me the publication schedule or mail the magazine to me. Can't figure out how you can mess up your subscription list but then again, I can't figure out largemouth bass. ;D ;D ;D Quote
Primus Posted December 24, 2009 Posted December 24, 2009 In Fisherman for multi species, they usually only have 1-2 bass articles per issue but they are usually very informative and well written. I like FLW for Bass fishing they seem to get a little more technical as opposed to Bassin' where it seems most of their articles are slanted to beginners. I agree with those who think BASS is going downhill. It seems like they want to piecemeal the info. That is a little in Bass Times, a little on the website and a little in their flagship mag. Ever since ESPN took them over they've emphasized style over substance. Quote

The Bassin' issues I have read weren't bad but I have not subscribed due to their delivery problems. Of all the magazines I've read, In-Fisherman is the most informative to me. I just wish they had a few more articles about bass fishing. I think the In-Fisherman books on bass fishing are top-notch as well, especially the material on location. I also read Missouri Game and Fish Magazine for a local slant. Quote
kikstand454 Posted December 27, 2009 Posted December 27, 2009 i like flw. then bassin and i have recently got into bass times. bassmaster is alright but i agree with others about its content sometimes. infisherman doesnt do it for me. i know that its a great mag and very well put together and informative... but its just not related to me in anyway. even the bass articles are written in a "northern waters" slant. though many things can be learned and applied to my own water... sometimes its alot more tech. specific to situations i never encounter.
