Target- Audience Research Salt Water Sportsman

    Our magazine Florida Angler is targeted  to any age who has a love for fishing. Our magazine is geared to family, fishing fun, but it also can be enjoyable for serious fisher people. Our magazine gives a lot of information on the fishing world and what it involves. There a few magazines that I find are looking to reach the same target audience, people that just love to fish. For example, Salt Water Sportsman is geared to help anyone just looking for some recreational fishing fun. This magazine tries to get their name out there by using an app they created. The app makes the process of reading so much simpler, it allows you to read almost any edition from the touch of your fingers. The apps also encourages you to put on notifications, to help remind you to look at the app.

Revisions//Feedback

   For my magazine, there was a few revisions I am going to make to improve my magazine. I am going to add more texts to my cover and possibly change the cover photo. In my table of contents, I am going to get together with my group members to change our fonts to something more unique to our magazine, also incorporate some variety of different pictures throughout my magazine. I will also do another interview to get more of an idea of how places were affected by the red tide. Then overall, change my magazine to have more of a clean and organized look to it.

Use of Conventions

   My magazine challenges conventions because it is not your typical fishing magazine. My magazine gives you a variety of different aspects to fishing and, also about the fish itself. My magazine gives you information on your basic fishing rods and boats and other equipment, but unlike other magazines it also provide information different types of fish, how they are caught, what happens with them, and so much more. My magazine is mainly focused on social groups who are concerned with what red tide is going to do to our fish population. The tide has caused issues for people who love to fish just for a hobby or someone trying to get a bite of local cuisine.
