Yes! Bassmaster and Bassin' are both very informative magazines. Can't say for books though. Fishing on the Edge is good, but it's not exactly a technique book.

I'm with Jools on this one. Massmaster and Bassin are my favorites. And depending on the articles, sometimes I'll buy an issue of The InFisherman. Yhere used to be a magazine I really liked many years ago called Fishin Facts, but it's been a LONGGGGG TIME since I've seen it on the stands.

I dont like bassmaster either. There is a lot of filler in bass magazines.

There is a great website devoted to bassfishing. Its called bassfishin.com.

Bass master and bass Times are both great. Sometimes i read the FLW magazine at Books A million. If you have a book store and an hour you can go there and read the whooe thing and not have to buy it. =)

Speaking of magazines I've got a bunch in boxes I've collected over the years. Mostly bassmaster but I've got bassin' and flw mixed in. Anyone interested? I'll trade for some early editions or a bait or two. Send me a PM.

I regularly get Bassin', Bassmaster, In-Fisherman, North American Fisherman, and Ohio Game and Fish.

What ever happened to Harry-n-Charlie in Bassmaster? I can only dream of the days of throwing a 4oz spinner bait with datsun hubcaps for blades.

They got moved to the website. Why do you think Zooker hates the magazine?
