Fishing & Outdoors Newspaper

Letter to the Editor:

Great Paper
Dear Sir
A trio of words in your last issue caught my eye. You, Mr Editor, said “Remember we are not a warm fuzzy fishing and hunting magazine.”
Thank goodness for that. Who wants to see rows of photos and stories of various bods with their big fish or big stag while “hard news” is missing?
These other publications rarely pick up on issues threatening the public’s sport. Yet if DOC and mad scientists get the last deer by either chemical or crazy science, there will be no need for a hunting magazine. Similarly if rivers run dry or are polluted and sea fish stocks plundered by company fishers, then trout fishing and saltwater fishing as we know it will be gone. Fishers will all be gone.
So these other magazines who do not care an iota about these hard issues will have dwindling numbers of readers.
This is something so basic, they don’t understand.
The other magazines do not even have letters to the editor. Free speech is dead.
Instead we have photos of “grin and grip” style.
But your paper, Mr Editor, stands like a beacon taking up the “hard issues”.
Well done.
“Reader”
Hawkes Bay

 

TRM replied:

Congratulations to Fishing & Outdoors. It should be compulsory reading for all anglers. TRM concur with the above comments. Based on anglers’ feedback and requests from inmates this Fishing & Outdoors newspaper is more popular than the Herald. TRM commend their Editorial intestinal fortitude for supporting anglers concerns and printing the controversial fishy stuff the main daily papers ignore – we reiterate with the Hawkes Bay “Reader” it stands like a beacon taking up the “hard issues”.
