I just got word that "Flyfishing and Tying Journal," the Amato fly-fishing magazine, is not going to publish a summer issue and is going to cease publishing the magazine. I think, next to "Fly Fisherman," it was the oldest fly-fishing magazine. I am sad to see it go. Over the years, it published a lot of good articles, especially ones dealing with the West. It had more print than most of the magazines. I saw that over the years its circulation numbers had shrunk dramatically.
About all that's left now is what is left of FFM. "The Drake" sometimes has a good piece or two, too. TU's magazine, "Trout," often contains some good fly-fishing articles. I have seen a few slick magazines on the rack, too, but they don't seem to have much in them for the price.
There don't seem to be (m)any good fly-fishing books being printed now either. So sad. The fishing in print, as Arnold Gingrich once termed it, was/is one of the joys of fly-fishing.
Anyhow, as a dinosaur who prefers to read something printed on paper, I am going to miss FTJ, which was a quarterly magazine.
