How was it?
"Fishing provides that connection with the whole living world. It gives you the opportunity of being totally immersed, turning back into yourself in a good way. A form of meditation, some form of communion with levels of yourself that are deeper than the ordinary self."

Hi,

this first "american" edition was very L-numbers oriented, as they translated some articles of ancient "german" editions (include the "swiss" series)... that's not everytime the case... but in each "german" edition, you have at least :

- an expedition report
- an in-deep article on a spawning
- a presentation of a breeder
- 1-2 in-deep articles on a genus or a specie
- flash infos on newly imported species

a really good magazine in his german edition... why should it be different in English ?

2 other topics on the same subject :

As far as I know, the magazine is a bi-monthly. So next edition is planned for March, or am I wrong ?

I didn't pay attention when suscribing, but I bet it's the same as with the german one.

I just bought a subscription to the Amazonas Magazine.
Can anybody tell me how many editions of the English version of the magazine have been released ?
And do they advertise previous editions of the magazine, so that if there is an article in it that you really want to read, you can get it ?

Amazonas in English has just started... the first edition was January 2012, translated from old articles of the former german editions. You can find the main themes of the german edition on the following site :
