I tend to favor the magazines that focus on real fishing instead of being filled with Luxo Lodge and tackle adverts masquerading as "articles". These are North American mags, of course:
- Salmon, Trout, and Steelheader - Not a fly-fishing-only mag, so there are lots of articles showcasing some very creative hardware hurling and meat flinging techniques as well, but the mag does good coverage of real fishing in the PNW, Canada, Great Lakes, and Alaska with plenty of fly fishing mixed in.
- The Drake - Good articles and it can be quite a funny read. The Ramboesque mentality of the steelhead freak comes shining through.
- Easter Flyfishing - Covers the eastern half of the US and Canada, focuses less on how to fish and more on where to fish. I like this mag because it gives specifics with exact rivers sections detailed, maps, etc.
