Are there any decent Kayak magazines?
Does anybody subscribe to one?

Most are from the US or Australia all online. Never seen a kayak fishing magazine in print.

Pretty much as I suspected Terry.
There are a couple that look ok, but as you say they US based.
The last Lure Anglers society magazine had a "Kayak Special", maybe that's the way to go - Supplements in the remaining angling magazines that are still in print, like Pikelines, Pike & Predators?
Just a thought.

Pike and Pred actually had a couple of photos in the front cover of my Hobie at Rutland and mentioned we are there now.
Sea Angler has regular articles now from Mark Crame, Snapper. I believe the Angling Times or Mail had an article a couple of weeks ago.
It's a slow burn but it's getting there bit by bit.
Bear in mind the US articles are very relevant to our freshwater fishing, different fish maybe but a lot of the tactics and gear are the same. That's where a to of our ultralite fishing started along with small f/s reels and bait casters. Sadly if you look at the Shimano or Daiwa US catalogues and then look at the EU version you will see that the U/L and spin gear section is massive Stateside but tiny here.
I have spoken with the companies and they say there is no demand here, I have told them if the gear was here sales would follow. Sadly they are not prepared to try.
