    Yes, and I didnt get mine like I was supposed to. I'm going to call them tomorrow and ask for a refund. I didn't get the fall issue and not the winter. Just like others have said, if your going to read it your better off to buy it off the self.

    Yeah, I don't think I'm renewing with crappie world again. Try these links below--both are FREE, yes FREE fishing magazines. Both are multispecies but have crappie articles too. You can "subscribe" and they email you the link when a new one comes out. These kinda mags are gonna put print media out of business. Lots of sports are going to e-magazines. Cheaper, its "green" and doesnt create clutter around the house.

    Maybe Slab will start a crappie.com magazine one of these days. That would be cool.

    Good luck.....they suck as far as customer service. Never did get my magazines that I ordered.....NONE!
    If people concentrated on the really important things in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles.:rolleyes:

    I used to wait anxiously for a new issue to come out but like you said 5 minutes is kind of a let down after waiting for months......haven't bought one in over a year,a person can acquire more info on here in an instant than he can in a years worth of their magazine.

    I get both the Crappie Angler and Crappie World...and I don't think they are too dissimilar for amount of content. I do prefer having the articles around in my house(bathroom) for reading while I'm there waiting to get a chance to go fishing. Sometimes I read the articles multiple times. Hey, there are worse things to do while in the bathroom.
    But the bugman is correct, there is much more information on this site then those mags.
