What say you about this fishing show? I've bought Kim's videos, very informative.

I like the show, especially the underwater footage. Be nice if they fished some lake here on the west coast.

I like the show, its a little different with the underwater diving.

Kim can be a little weird some times but aren't we all.

I've been watching this show for 2 seasons now. My opinion.....he sells good underwater footage of bass. Not necessarily bass behavior, as we think we might see though. Bass confronted with a huge predator (man) a few feet away, can't be expected to act normally - IMO. So I'm not so impressed with the show.

When I first started watching it, he showed smallies going after tube baits. WOW, I thought.....finally.....a show that will connect how we present a bait with how the fish react to it! No dice. Since that show, no other connect has been shown between presentation and catching. A disappointment. I still watch it. Nice underwater footage. But I was hoping for more and hoping to learn something.

I think it is great!

Yeah haha thats true. I really like the SCUBA diving though. Really cool to see what kind of water Kim's fishing because a lot of the time he is pulling up constant lunker.

It's O.K. I do like that he has filmed on some water I have actually been on!

I like the underwater footage, but agree about the lack of any real fishing knowledge being provided.  The scripts are so forced and contrived and Kim's laugh is almost as bad as Shaw Grigsby's.

    I also like the show.  I really liked it when they were catching some nice fish off the docks and then went under the water to show how the bass were stacked up on the pilings.

    Was a very informative show (at least that episode).

Crestliner, that was my opinion also but this year's shows have improved.  He recently did a couple of shows about fishing crankbaits and sight fishing for smallies during the spawn.  Both of these shows provided some good information which had been lacking in earlier shows.  I won't say this is the best fishing show but at times it has been worth watching.

I agree; what really gets me is that this show could be a truly GREAT show! It has a tremendous amount of potential. I just think they are out of touch with what fishermen that watch NEED. Show us a drop shot in action on some good, deep water structure and how the bass react to that presentation! Show us fish reacting/not reacting to what we are doing while fishing - with various presentations. How do the lures we buy actually look down where the fish are? Show us the difference between monofilament line, fluorocarbon and braids - DOWN THERE! These are the things that are really needed. JMO!

Excellent points, Crestliner.  When the show first started airing I was hoping it would be along those same lines.  This could be one of the best if they would take it in that direction.
