So, How am I doing?

[NIB]

Love the NE Fisherman Magazine..Much better than the NJ counterpart..U have done a great job Taking over for Zach...Ur plug building article a few weeks ago was a good one..Ya, I never know when they are coming but who cares.There's not really any time sensitive material that U could not get from the previous weeks mag.I rarely pay any attention to reports..I make up my own reports..A few weeks ago I had a two week stint without a computer. I brought several of ur mags to read.I have to say I enjoyed the writings of T.C.,Zach.And Mr Soares in the report section..I look forward to re-upping my subscription this yr..
Hope fully it will be in person..See ya then..

secret spots should only be seen appear via blacklight ...

I was going to mention the fact that sometimes I don't receive my issue, but it looks like you're on top of that. Otherwise it's a great magazine, I'm just coming to the end of my first year of subscribing and have renewed for next year. I agree with some of the other posts, like to see articles on technique with different plugs as well as how to's on things like eeling (shore and boat), fishing with live pogies, etc. Keep up the good work, I look forward to seeing what you produce in the coming year!

Dave, hat's off for starting this thread.
It takes stones to ask John Q Public if he's
happy with something that you provide.

Even more so within this motley crew.
I am with NIB, the time of arrival is not so important to me,
just so long as it arrives. Sounds like you're all over it anyway.

The very fact that you care about your product enuff to ask, speaks volumes for the direction the magazine is going and the attention to detail you are giving your new baby. I read one last year at RISAA and remember liking it. Looks like i'll have to check out this newer version, sooooon. Thanks for your openness and your willingness to make what seems to be a great product, even better!!

How about instead of (or in addition to) any kind of lure of the month you have a How to Fish Lure (method) of the Month...

Glad to help by making more work for you

I think many people would love a weekly/monthly update on a new or different technique.... and it wouldn't have to be lure... could be bait as well.

Yah, I agree John... I think that would be a great idea.

The mag is coming along just fine. Keep up the how to sections. no matter how many years people have fished there is always something new to learn. Perhaps one on making molds for tin?

Hey, I wanted someone to bring that up, becasue it pisses me off to no end too... believe me!

That really means a lot, I'm glad that you all seem to have read this thread (so far) the way I intended it to be read. And yes I do really care about the content, I want this thing to be better than it ever was. I'll take all the help I can get.

I like the idea a lot... I just wonder if after 50 issues, would there be anything left!??!
