HOW TO USE THE AUSSIE ANGLERS ALMANAC TO PLAN YOUR FISHING TRIPS, FOR YOUR BEST CHANCE TO GET WHAT YOU WANT
TIP OF THE MINUTE...
Fishotopia Is The Online Home Of Starlo & Jo, Australia’s Best-Loved Fishing Couple. It’s Also The Most Entertaining & Informative Online Hangout For Aussie Anglers. If You Can’t Be Fishing, Fishotopia Is The Next Best Thing.
Fishotopia’s public access portals provide a convenient “casting deck” into the broad range of touch-points, services and information offered by Starlo and Jo across the internet. Staying connected with them all will help you reach the top of your fishing game and become one of those “10 per centers” who catch 90 per cent of the fish.
But there is SO much more unbelievable fishing intel and content, hidden away behind the Membership Login.
Premium Membership gives you quick access to angler insights, information and like minds that will enhance your fishing experiences — as well as discounts in the Fishotopia shop.
Only Premium Members gain access to Starlo’s Inner Circle, where they can join our exclusive social network (and chat directly with Starlo, Jo and their guests) and receive exclusive invitations to Inner Circle events.
ACCESS ALL AREAS
You read correctly… the only way to benefit from genuine two-way communication with Starlo that goes deeper than “generic” is through his Inner Circle! This allows him to focus his attention entirely on those like-minded fishos who genuinely value his decades of research, experience and success.
If you’re a serious angler… possibly even an addicted angler (like Starlo & Jo), then you belong in Starlo’s Inner Circle!
Members of this exclusive community are committed to becoming the “one percenters”. As such, they enjoy direct access to Starlo (and each other) through a totally private social forum that has become the “thinking anglers’ meeting place”.
But that’s just the beginning. As part of Starlo’s Inner Circle, you also have full access to a growing library of “Tight Lines” magazines — the incredibly detailed and immersive how-to features otherwise available for individual purchase — AND you receive personal invitations to members-only events and get-togethers, as well as news of deals and new releases before they’re made public… PLUS opportunistic, ad-hoc web events that no-one outside the group can access.
Membership to Starlo’s Inner Circle is, without question, the best way to fast-track your fishing success… it’s like having Starlo and Jo standing right beside you every time you cast a line!
Fishotopia is a brilliant concept with a legitimately exciting future. Whilst the Inner Circle is a grander concept than a “fishing forum” per se, I can see it succeeding where other online communities have failed.
I think there are two main reasons for people leaving fishing forums: they either outgrow them or find a better alternative. In the case of Fishotopia, the former is impossible: I can’t imagine any angler thinking there’s nothing to be gained from conversations with you two. One of the biggest differences between yourselves and lesser fishing writers is that you’re actually willing to volunteer the critical knowledge required to actually get immediate benefit. Your writings are always gold. As you continue to learn, we’ll continue to learn... and on and on indefinitely. I don’t think anyone’s going to outgrow Fishotopia!
Then there’s the chance of finding a superior alternative... for years, social media has eroded the user base of fishing forums, but it can’t compete with the Inner Circle when you guys also release quality, exclusive content!
OUR VISION is for every Australian fisher to enjoy rich and satisfying experiences while fishing — now, and forever — and for all Australians to embrace the positive influence that recreational fishing can have on our society.
Fishotopia’s MISSION
The Inner Circle’s MISSION
Recreational fishing is Australia’s heritage. It’s intrinsically woven into the fabric of our culture. When you think about it, it has the power to heal many of our society’s woes… but you have to THINK about it.
Not only does it get us off our butts, away from our screens and back into the wilds, it teaches us about ecosystems, their fragility and our place in them, as both predator and protector. It teaches us empathy, as well as humility — and much, much more… when you think about it.
~Jo Starling, co-founder of Fishotopia.
