EDITORIAL
FIRST CaST
By Wayne Wasulko
Welcome to the first full digital edition of Westernbass.com Magazine. This is the coolest product with
which I’ve ever been involved. The world of technology is making all of our lives easier and more comfortable. So
why not try this same concept for reading a magazine!
When Westernbass.com first published vintage issues to our Magazine Nostalgia section, the interest was so incredible that we knew that an online publication would be an even bigger hit! The technology that our online publication brings is truly exciting. Many of the featured articles will include audio from our staff writers, our contributors actually speaking directly to you. Additionally, some of the articles will include embedded video for demonstrations, fishing destinations, product visuals and so forth. It’s hard to even imagine how far these features will evolve over time, but the possibilities are nearly endless. So be sure to click the prompts in the articles and advertisements to experience the magazine to its fullest.
We hope you enjoy all of the interesting and knowledge - building articles that our great writers have provided in this first issue. We’re honored to present the musings of such talented writers as George Kramer and Jody Only, insights from former fisheries biologists Dennis Lee and Marc Marcantonio, and bass fishing specific content from accomplished pro anglers like Mike Folkestad and Russ Meyer to working guides Andy ‘Cooch’ Cuccia and Randy Pringle to up-and-coming co-anglers such as Tami Curtis and Chris Ricci, to name only a few. This publication is truly about bass fishing diversity.
I hope these multi-media/interactive features will increase your reading enjoyment.
Great Reading, Wayneg
