The new, FREE, Tackle Junkie magazine could be described as a large tackle catalogue but with a difference – it contains only those products that have been launched for the 2009 or 2010 season. Fishing Monthly Group (who also publish VFM magazine) say:

"Our goal was to include as many brands as possible to give you the big picture of what’s out there, and to this end we have brought together releases from over 60 brands."

"All product reviews have been sorted into four categories – rods, reels, lures and accessories – and most reviews contain a recommended retail price. Additionally, to help you get the most out of your gear we have included feature articles by a panel of experts. Topics include how to choose a rod, how to upgrade your reels and which lures the experts use for different species."

"The best thing about Tackle Junkie, however, is the wide range of new product reviews – and we have crammed over 200 of them into its pages."

The magazine will be in full distribution in early December, and you can pick up a free copy at participating tackle stores while stocks last. Tackle Junkie will be published only once a year, so grab a copy while you can!
