Sport Fishing Magazine March 2008 issue - Page 9

Well 2 issues have been printed and neither mine nor Harrys' letters to the editor were published.

It seems that if you don't agree with Olanders' opinion you're not worthy of print.This is the first time I have written to a fishing magazine that refused to print an opposite view.

I canceled my subscription so you guys will have to let me know if the biased magazine prints anything worth reading. I too have written to other magazines, with opposing views, and had them printed. Maybe our issues with what they wrote were overshadowed with more important things - in their minds?

No it probably got too close to home for the editor. I guess he did'nt like it that his wife caught a nice sword on an" electric reel "and his buddies in the keys were taken to task.

Welcome to my life, I have replied to several conservation articles in the past and never had a single word printed. I even took note to an article that Peter Wright wrote about wiring giant tuna and marlin and again not a single word was printed in Marlin Magazine.

I have always felt that Sportfishing Magazines have looked down upon the commercial sector, now it is apparent that they look down on their own as well.

Keep quite and keep paying the subscription..
