2009 MEDIA KIT
2009 SKA TOURNAMENT TRAIL From North Carolina to Louisiana SKA Will Sanction or Produce
50 Events in 2009 and Cover Each Event in Detail in Angler Magazine. Angler magazine is the bible of our association and, while we do use direct mail for membership drives and renewals, most of the yearly tournament news comes to the fishermen in the pages of Angler. Hard-hitting editorials, a calendar of events, fishing tips, and the most comprehensive tournament results are included in each issue. Angler is circulated to every member 11 times a year, (no issue in December) plus tournament distribution. Angler is printed on 40 pound hi-brite newsprint with an 80 pound gloss four color cover. Newsprint is used because of tight deadlines and printing schedules. Angler magazine is the official publication of the Southern Kingfish Association.
