Here you go John: http://www.anglersnet.co.uk/forums/Tackle-...p;hl=consultant

 

It was in the carp fishing forum, I'm surprised you missed it :D

 

 

Cheers Andrew, I too am surprised, everyone knows my passion for all things carpy. :yucky::rolleyes:

 

I didn't see any evidence of "a 12 year old innocent girl get torn to f*cking shreds over you lot!!", perhaps I missed something.

 

John.

Angling is more than just catching fish, if it wasn't it would just be called 'catching'......... John

Doesn't look like my Mr. Chavtree cartoon strip's going to take off then!

 

 

Well Mr Chavtree is already funnier than "TwoClone"

 

They'd have done better to have published a "straight" fishing mag and chucked in a free copy of Viz :)

and for those of you that knocked it from the start well up yours

 

I regret now that I wished you luck with this venture, and can only express my delight with the news that it is no more.

Well i would have given the magazine at least a chance, but i never found one in the shops and now apparently it's being discontinued so i will never get to read it. It's a bit of a shame it wasn't even out long enough for people to get a chance to make an opinion on it, oh well, easy come easy go <_<

As famous fisherman John Gierach once said "I used to like fishing because I thought it had some larger significance. Now I like fishing because it's the one thing I can think of that probably doesn't."

All though the proposed mix didn't appeal to me the idea of no product placement and quality articles did so I would have liked to see a few editions to make my mind up.

 

I could see a product placement "advertorial",cartoon strip *photo shoot" article mag with lots of adverts birds with tits out going together but not the serious/quality article going hand in hand with tits n' bums and laddish humour,Like I said I found the idea of the proposed mix a bit odd.

 

BUT I'm that desperate to read DECENT articles that I wouldn't have let the other stuff (whether I liked it/found it amusing or not) affect my decision to buy or my judgement of the articles.Conversely even the biggest,barest tits in the world wouldn't have stopped me saying if the articles were (IMO) crap! or convinced me to carry on buying it.

 

The biggest worry for me though is that (as someone mentioned earlier) is it just a sad fact that the type of mag we now see and I'm bored stupid with is the only commercially viable format? Anything that deviates from this format just doomed to fail to attract the advertising revenue that's needed so go the same way as Marks project?

 

Stick with it though Mark and hopefully you will be able to eventually crack it and produce a viable publication that we can indeed start to enjoy again. Even if it don't initially appeal to me or everyone.

The topic of this magazine just came up in my house. I had to Google it, in case I'd dreamt it. Who remembers Fish n Tips?
