John Bailey writes for it, and writes well; but generally speaking the mag is "too much kit and not enough fishing."
Sounds like it should be called 'classic tackle' rather than 'classic angling'

I fear so, Snape - it just needs a few more active anglers to get on board: there's a slightly sterile feel to the magazine..
