Your Top Favorite Bass Magazines

Featured Replies

Which are your favorites? Mine are:

1) Bassmaster

2) Bass Quest

3) FLW

I'd like to hear what you prefer and why.

I also Like Bassmaster as #1 and is why I am a member.  Great for everything Bass Fishing.  2nd is In fisherman so I can keep up on other types of fishing as well.  I am looking for a great Catfish magazine.  I generally fish 98% of time for Bass and the rest Catfishing.

I get FLW and in-fisherman. . In-fisherman I like the most because of the fact there are more articles on Smallmouth fishing and the other species they cover... Musky and Pike.. Considering I live 5 miles from Lake Erie...

#1  BassMaster

#2   FLW

#3   In Fisherman

what are your thoughts on Bass Angler Magazine?

Bassmaster is good but I feel like they don't put out any magazines all year then they fire out a few in January for 3 months, then nothing again for October.

I let my subscription to In-fisherman expire, because I thought they were getting repetitive and I remember how it used to be and I was angry at myself for continuing to contribute to sub-standard product.  I still take Bassmaster - my primary reason for subscribing to it is probably inertia.

Yesterday, I picked up a the newest copy of Bassin at Walmart.  Lots of pretty pictures of boats - however much of the text was black print against a bright red background and I found that extremely hard to read - so I didn't.  Maybe some day when I improve the lighting next to my Lazy Boy . . .

Overall I am not real pleased with the state of over the counter or subscription fishing literature right now.

Bassmaster,Bass Times FLW and Bass angler magazine.Bass angler is really good but they are really slow in getting your subscription out.I pick it up at Bass pro,I called a few times and they say its in the mail but not yet.

The only mag I read is Bassmaster. I was a member for years and when I started fishing again I started reading it again.

Would have to be FLW Bassmasster And IN Fisherman if it has articles about bass fishing..

Just renewed my bass master subscription in December, it's my wifes gift to me every year so I'd have to go with them or she might kill me.

+1 for Bassmaster. I always read (and didn't buy) them from my local bookstore. Always a good time having some coffee and reading some fishing mags. I JUST got my first issue in the mail today too. 1 year and a tackle bag for $10. Not bad. 

I do love the endless info online but there's something satisfying about a good ole fashioned magazine.

BAM is my current favorite. Had a subscription to Bassin' for years but it started to get thin with a lot of advertising and fewer articles that I found useful so I let it go.

Pre 1995 In-Fisherman
