Just got done watching the first The Bass Pros show of the year on DVR from yesterday. Woo flipping boat docks, KVD 4 minutes of topwater and Clunn on water displacement by crankbaits. Jason Quin and Edwin Evers are a part of the staff as well for I forgot them earlier. Most informative show on tv, but Zona is still my favorite just because it is so entertaining.
[quote=smljaw;349390]WGFS is the best show going IMO. Zona is too cool, funny and can flat out catch em! I'm also excited to see Going Coastal with Byron Velvick. The show sounds pretty cool. You can read more about it on Velvick's blog right here...

On a side note... Mark, I agree, "Icon-idiot" is a big tool. He'll hook a 14 incher and yell, "I just won the tournament!!!" What???[/quote]
But that tool is making about $500K a year doing something we all love to do. Not to big of a tool if you ask me.
My favorite show is "Hunt for Big Fish" with Larry Dahlberg. Larry is about as dry as the Sarah and the music/editing looks like it was done by a HS AV club, but I love the content with the exotic fish in exotic locations.
He catches many freshwater fish that make bass seem tame.
Hyrdolycus armatus
Hydrocynus vittatus
Hoplias aimara
Cichla sp
Arapaima gigas!!!
I wish some one that knew how to make a show would pick it up!

I too also just watched the same shows today...Getting my groove on for sure....Waiting on the Baby Cubs man......
Awe I was a bit harsh on Mike I guess. He's not my cup of tea but I have heard of countless good things he has done to get our young people involved in the great outdoors. For that I will give him a big thumbs up, and yea he's making a heck of alot more money than me fishing so maybe I'm a little jealous or alot, lol. But I do hate the screaming and saying every fish is huge, and he really needs to learn how to handle fish, he does a terrible job in that arena, just horrible.
Scott, Do you ever actually work?.. I mean like at your job?.. I know you have to work hard to catch as many fish as I do when we go out to Ellerslie or the River together, but I mean like at the place, where you uuhhh get paid and stuff er sumthn..

How dare you say that foul sounding word you have described in your post....
Man Law # 3 never mention the 4 letter word that starts with a W and ends with a D...... You could be sent out to the woodshed and whipped with slimy spaghetti noodles......:D:D:D
Whats up with the charlie moore show, do people really want to see that crap? Bring back Fish he was funny anyway.
[quote=Tim_T;349384]I hear people complain about the Classic coverage, but compared to what? The Classic coverage on ESPN is by far the best it has ever been. Jeez, used to be to watch the Classic you waited a month after the event and then it would be shown in a one hour episode on TNN!
Mark Zona is awesom and might be the only one to admit this, but I kind of like Charlie Moore's show.[/quote]
I like Charlie Moore's show as well. Sure he is silly but man I guess I just don't take his show for anything more than what it is....entertainment. I NEVER tune into his show thinking ok what can I learn today. I know it's gonna be crazy antics, skits and an occasional shot of his wife in a bikini!:)
Mike Ike....well he gets on my nerves because he has evolved into a t.v. cartoon character. I'm not into screaming, hiphop, soul patch wearing, wanna be, frumpy clothes, bass fisherman when I'm watching some serious tournament coverage. I hear he does good things but I just don't care for his t.v. persona.
Give me KVD, Denny, Elias, Nixon, Peter T.,Timmy Horton, Zell or countless others and let mikey go scream on the other side of the lake. Just not my thing.
I forgot to mention, if you like fishing and hunting shows, you would love my house. I have all the ESPN's, Versus, The Outdoor Channel and The Sportsmen Channel. The Sportsmens Channel is great. It is 24/7 hunting and fishing, no infomercials, no prospecting or Four wheeling shows. Just hunt and fish, fish and hunt. Production quality on some of the shows are not up to standard, but still very entertaining.
Don't forget that Classic Patterns is back in 2009. I think the first new show was this week on the Outdoor Channel. This is a very informative show.
Thank you, brother Mills... Jabbo, you need to shut your yapper. I'm gonna smoke you at Ellerslie tomorrow! You go ahead and through your RAPALA Risto Rap all you want. We'll find the shad on the graph and I'll have you begging for a spoon out of my box.
