ABOUT GAFF MAGAZINE

Florida’s saltwater fishing magazine is designed to inform, educate and entertain anglers. Content driven and packed with in-your-face photography, GAFF Magazine takes readers on a coastal journey full of informative articles, high-quality pictures and exciting fish stories. By glorifying Florida, GAFF aims to aid in the longevity and life-long resources available to the fishing community through conservation and environmentally friendly experiences. Not only will we tell you where, when and how to catch fish, GAFF Mag captures the true essence of fishing—the feel of the sun, the smell of the salt, the exhilaration of the catch—the entire fishing experience! As a result, our dream is to help keep fishing in Florida, a positive lifetime experience for our children and grandchildren as the future of Florida anglers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do the makers of GAFF feel that Florida needs another saltwater fishing publication?
Because the state of Florida is the # 1 destination in the world for sport and recreational fishing. With 3.4 million people fishing here annually, the arena is far too vast for only one statewide magazine to cover.

Why should I buy GAFF magazine instead of other Florida fishing magazines?
You shouldn’t. If you love saltwater fishing, you should buy them all. GAFF Magazine is not in competition with the other publications, in fact we enjoy reading them as well. It’s just that GAFF Magazine is of a different mindset, therefore giving you a different perspective on your favorite pastime.

What makes GAFF Magazine so different from other fishing magazines?
GAFF Magazine is different because it doesn’t spread itself so thin over a broad variety of outdoor activities. GAFF relates strictly to saltwater fishing – no rainbow trout, no squirrel hunts, and no Bass Classics. WE don’t oppose these sports mind you, but there are already plenty of publications dedicated just to them. We feel that Florida’s oceans and waterways are virtually limitless in story and photo opportunity, so why sacrifice pages covering topics that are already thoroughly covered in their own respective mags.

Is GAFF Magazine geared more toward the inshore or the offshore fisherman?
Both. GAFF will do it’s best to cover all aspects equally.

Is GAFF Magazine a monthly, bi-monthly, or seasonal publication?
GAFF Magazine is a bi-monthly publication with 6 great issues a year.

Can I submit my own ideas or photographs for publication?
Absolutely, in fact, we encourage it! Our hope is for GAFF Magazine to become a forum for our readers to express their views and experiences with one another.

Where can I buy an issue of GAFF?
GAFF is on sale in stores such as Publix, Winn Dixie, Books-a-Million, Kash n’ Karry and various marinas around the state.
