Last January, Angling Times altered its layout - it dropped most of the articles writtten by regular contributors, such as Des Taylor and Neville Fickling, and increased the proportion of news items. The editor, Richard Lee explained elsewhere in this forum that he wanted the AT to be news oriented.
Seven months on, in my view the AT has become less interesting. The many short news items are tedious to read. The main columnists writing about fishing techniques, Steve Ringer and Martin Bowler, are getting a bit repetitive.
I've taken the AT for many years. This week I bought the Anglers Mail for comparison. The Mail nowadays is more readable than the AT, and its layout and design is far more appealing.
I'd be interested to know if AT sales increased after its update.
What do forum members think of the AT these days ?
