January 2012 Issue
January is prime time for ice fishing derbies in Maine and when it comes to covering these exciting events, nobody does it better than The Maine Sportsman. This month’s issue brings you all the details on the seven biggest and best derbies in the state, including how you can get in on the action to win great derby prizes.
Of course, it’s not enough just to tell you about the derbies. You also need the inside scoop on where and how to catch the big ones; fish that will win the top prizes. That’s where our writers have delivered the goods, proving you with information to make you a contender.
Maybe you don’t ice fish, but would like some information to make you more production during next year’s open water season. We’ve got you covered there too. For example, our fly fishing section features article explaining how stripping really big flies super fast pays off with strikes from jumbo striped bass.
Plus, there are plenty of times in January when the weather is too cold or it’s too dark to head outdoors; a perfect time to do some reading. That’s when you’ll really enjoy the January issue because we’ve packed it full of great reading … everything from book reviews to how to tie a Bead Head Prince Nymph and my favorite of the month, Joe Salty’s Big Game column on wild game recipes!
