Old fishing magazines and books

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

I would suggest retirement homes...the residents often appreciate older reading material.
Also, if the books are in good shape, your local library most likely accepts donations.

it's too bad but even pre covid many places would not except any old mags, I used to hand these off to some young lads but now do their own thing. I have many as well that I would rather share than recycle

I also have some at home that I would like to share rather than the recycled ones as @Bear said.

I'm 15 and I've been wanting to get my hands on some old fishing magazines for a while. If anyone wants to pass some on to the next generation of fisherman, I know some other young fisherman who probably love to see some, and I'm sure my dad would get a kick out of them too!

That is an excellent idea. I couldn't agree more.

Well I am sorry to say that due to cleaning up/making room to renovate basement, that the 5 boxes of mags have gone to the recylers. :( :( :(

No worries, but a shame nonetheless.
