An odd magazine-but it kinda works

Ran across "The Drake" a fishing magazine (focus on fly fishing) that seems to target the Rocky Mountain "High" demographic. For example, there is an article about a "Pharmaceutical" run from Wyoming to Colorado. Oddly, it seems to work.

You have "Gray's Sporting Journal" which mainly focuses on fly fishing, but has other fishing and some hunting, that targets the wealthy. "Outside" does the mountain biking/hiking type stuff.

The Drake seems like a very relaxed combo of the 2-I am tempted to subscribe.

I'd rather have Gray's Sports Almanac.
