Lack of fishing shows

You can always surf over to Lunkerville and watch those episodes online, 24/7/365

Hey Fishing Rhino, I remember Gadabout Gaddis. Used to watch him every Sunday with my parents. Seems to me it was on right before or after American Sportsman with Curt Goudy.     Happy fishing.

I also was wondering where all of the fishing shows went.  I went to zap2it, TiVo's web channel guide service, and did a search for fishing.  Turns out that, at least on Versus, the fishing shows were moved to Tuesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays in the very early morning.  For example, Linders Anglers Edge was on Tuesdays at 5:30am.  I think they will be back on in January at the 10am spot.

Time warner cable here in my area put the Outdoor channel into a pay package with a bunch of other stuff I have no interest in.  ESPN2 and V/S are all we have around here on regular TV.

bill dance???

Can't find him, or anything, I'm lucky if I find a bass show a few times a year!

The only sports channels we have are; Sun Sports, ESPN, ESPN 2, FSN, and Css.

It won't be long now!!!!!!!!!!! I think most of us can agree the best shows are the informative type rather than the "sell me a piece of crap type."

I really like "The Hunt for Big Fish with Larry Dahlberg" on Versus. I really enjoy watching massive fish from all over the world. On a technical note, that guy is an amazing caster. He has pinpoint accuracy with all of his equipment.

I enjoy shows that teach you to fish instead of the ones that you just sit there and watch them catch fish.

There are some shows that are informative, but tries to sell their products every 5 minutesit gets annoying.  Shows like Fishing with Roland Martin for instance.

I think they TV networks are doing it all wrong they need to have the fishiong shows on during hunting season and the hunting on during the spring thru fall. In the spring I am fishing not watching tv and in the winter Illnois winters are not good for keeping open water and I need my fix. I don't hunt but if I did i would want (i think) to see hunting shows prior to pulling the trigger time. just my 2 cents worth...

good point! when its nice out i dont wanna be stuck indoors watching tv nor do i wanna miss my shows if im fishing or at car shows, and or drag races.. my solution was to get a dvr so i dont miss anything and i can watch it when i want also by passing the commercials. also i would vote to have more fishing in the winter when we need the fix the most.

If you remember it, and watched it with your parents, you've got to be around my age, 67.  I seem to recall it being broadcast prior to or after American Sportsman too.

Ahhhh, those were the good old days.  In a tackle shop, you could check out the available selection of lures in about ten minutes.  Now, it would take more than 10 hours to peruse the selection of stuff at Bass Pro Shop, and Cabelas too, I would imagine.

I think most of the fishing shows start up next Saturday 1/2/09 Cant wait to get my favorite shows back like Day On The Lake, Bass Pros, Worlds Greatest Fishing Show! ;D

At 9 am I watched BassMasters on ESPN2, and between 12 noon and 2 pm I watched two Bill Dance and two Roland Martin shows on Versus. It's raining, so I really enjoyed the shows.
