Those bloopers are hilarious.  But are they for real?  I mean are those real outtakes from the show or did he do those things on purpose to make the bloopers?  To me they have the feel of one of those old Tim Conway Dorf on Golf videos.

Either way, like I said, very funny stuff.  But if they're for real, Bill is just plain dangerous!   ;D

A point I was just thinking about is how many Lake El Salto shows where all the big names go and catch huge fish. El Salto was stocked and is a huge fish producer, how come no one complains that Shaw Grigsby or Hank Parker go to a "stocked lake" to fish. Is it just because it is a known lake and is much bigger. To me water is water, as long as theres fish in it, it doesnt matter. It's actually a smart idea for Bill because he fishes for entertainment and using a stocked tank is just plain entertaining when all those hawgs are caught. I enjoy his show and it does actually have some strong advice that can help you on the water. Just my opinion though....
