Anybody Get Their Fisherman Magazine Last Week?
 

Just curious if anybody got their copy of The Fisherman last week? It usually shows up on the stands around me on Wednesday, but it never showed up! This was last week so it had nothing to do with snow! Went out today and could not find this weeks yet either? Is there a problem with the magazine?:huh:

they start drinkin every year around this time :D

I thought there were only 50 issues a year.

Yeah...I think your right Goose, doesn't everyone?:buds: Slip your right, but the two issues they don't put out are the week of Christmas and the week of New Years! Did any of you guys receive one last week?:huh:

They just chose you to not deliver to because you are grumpy:mad:

My subscription lapsed a few weeks ago so I have been getting it at my local B & T shops. Nobody got it!:af: Yeah...I am gonna have to post this in Grumpin' forum!:splat:

They just started:buds: :sleeps: a little earlier this year.:hee:

ive had the same prob a few times just call and they will send you another one pronto if they forgot or whatever happened. theys good peoples.:)

I think you missed my point Christian......they never came out to the best of my knowledge! Nobody got em'! No bait and tackle shops, nobody I know and so far none of you guys claims to have gotten one last week?:smash:

o ya i know that but you never had one go missing? thats what im talking aboot:D when we going icefishing?
:)

I didn't get mine either, but I think they skip some issues in December, check the fine print in the publishing info in the last issue

fisherman magazine
 

My friend Harry owns a tackle store and has informed me that they are comming every 2 weeks at this time of yaer. I believe its supposed to be like this thru feb!!! :smash: :af:

I remembered finding this after not getting mine at one point:

Page 3 of Nov 6 issue: "The NEW ENGLAND FISHERMAN is published weekly, except for two weeks in December by the N.E.F. Publishing Corportation...."

That is the last two weeks in December for like the third time, and for the fifth time, has anyone gotten theirs or even laid eyes on last weeks issue. :eyes: Did anyone get a Fisherman magazine last week, yes or no? Christian...we need ice to go ice fishing! I will let you know when it is time to go!:kewl:

where exactly was time two? :huh:

I didn't get last weeks or the week before :af:
in fact, I havn't gotten an issue since Nov. 20 :af: :af: :af: :af:
I'll be callin tomorrow to b!tch

they have a website to sign up on? or do you have to fill out that form in the magazine?

Dont have that one. But OTW is good this month.

Funny you guys should mention this. I was getting ready to b&%%$#h at the post office because mine gets robbed every now and then. I have not got an issue of the Fisherman for 2 weeks.:af:

Thanks guys...time to start bishin'!:af:

no last week yes this week . they dont have issues during christmas and new yaers and that is 50 weeks . Ive been a subscriber for a long time and thats the way it always has been .
now this weeks is a waste cause its the buy a boat issue .

The fisherman always gets a little weak around the winter months. They have some great articles now and then and a larger double Xmas issue (I think).

I enjoy getting it all season. My only complaint is that they don't have an archive of all the older issues online. I would be willing to pay a second subscription price to be able to search for certain past articles and then download them. I use to save them but I always miss placed or lost the issue and they took up a lot of space and it was a pain to look thru each one seeking that article I remember reading 3 or 4 seasons ago.
Also, from a log standpoint it would be interesting to go back as well all look at past reports for certain places/weeks. It is such a shame cause there was a LOT of good stuff in there and it is lost forever if you can't acess it.

(hint...I HOPE THEY DO THIS!)

Sandman, do you have to be a member to surf on the fisherman website? I opened the website address and it isn't there.

I dind't know they even had a website.

try this, www.thefisherman.com.

I just got off the phone with the Fisherman office in Mystic. They told me that there was no Dec. 4th issue and that the Dec 11 issue will be a double issue and also the last issue of the year.

You can't log on to the website without a password. At least I couldn't.

That's what I am talking about.

I bet that is for internal (publishing) use. I have never heard about a web site for users...It would be a GREAT idea to have that info and past online!

I don't know what the publishing rights are on those articles are and that might be a sticking point but as I said I for one would be willing to pay for the ability to search for past issue articles.

I would also although I did keep all back issues since 94. Last winter were we going to move so I went through every issue and cut out articles I wanted to keep. Ended up with 3 big 3 ring binders full. Never did move either.
