Yes. Monthly (or bi-monthly) magazines typically come out a month to 6
weeks before the cover date, and it usually takes a couple months before
you get your first issue after subscribing. I wouldn't worry about it
til mid January

I was told my first issue would be the Nov/Dec issue

Don't know why they told you that on 10/29 when they were probably
already done putting together the Jan/Feb issue.

Mid Jan. seems a bit late to read about Fall fishing

Agree with you there. I'm not defending them; just telling you what my
experience with magazine subscriptions has been.
