Dave -
I read it, fortunately I get my magazines on Wednesday, always have. No complaints on my delivery times. And Dave I enjoy reading it every week, you've been producing a good publication with great new writers who add good value.
Your overall message was on target - learn the sport the honest way ... by learning through time on the water and learning through trial and error ... also don't kill trophy fish as a photo will last a lifetime and give opportunity for the fish to spawn new stocks of fish, etc. I've never taken to people crowding or horning in on spots learned by others ... drives me crazy ... all necessary messages.
From a business/marketing point of view - it can be argued ... be careful about alienating readership ... I forget how you exactly categorized that group ... but those who can afford to spend money on the best gear [especially during tight economic times in an industry that is feeling the impact now] ... no sense in turning off those who help to support your advertisers, the publication and many in the industry who are active on this site ... I am surprised that FG let that go through and didn't edit it ... I'm just saying give that consideration too when you are writing.
Thanks for a good magazine, it's really the only fishing pub I read anymore.
