Bro, you missed the point entirely. I'm not saying he's the "leader" I was implying that you would be one if you just stood up and admited that, like him or hate him, you do indeed watch him. That was my point, not that he's the leader. In my opinion he's goofball, but I'm not going to sit here and say I don;t have an appreciatation for whats he's accomplished or for the niche that he's carved out for himself, all the while, while getting paid a lot of money to do it.

in that
 

i agree

Cool
 

OK, however, everyone needs whipping boy...might as well be him. I was on another one of New Englands fishing show sites (onthehook)the guy from that show is going on his Beat Charlie Moore show on Boston Haaaba.

I think you guys need to give me his job, so you won't have to bitch any more, I'd take his job in a blink of an eye. You bet your arse I'm jeolous and it's not about his fishing ability.

GS,

then maybe I'd watch. Let's see if we can arrange the trade.

:)

wow
 

GS wants to actually "BE" our whippin boy. Thats pretty darn courageous if ya ask me. Then all us to cold to fish frustrated Fisherman can knit pick him to death. Won't THAT be fun?
can't wait.... Alls it takes is a fancy camera and a big ham :D

I am.

"Come here ya little sugar booger..." :hihi:

oh kay
 

Benny Huston ! you can start practicin that laugh of his....
whats it called .... ohh yeah ..... the hyena chuckle!:D

Benny Houston...
 

Now there's a guy who needs to be bitch slapped. I hate that jackass, jimmy houstons laugh goes right through me like a hot knife. He's a jackass. Why is it that we don;t see more guys bitching and complaining about southern #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&s like him and all we can do is beat up our own "home team" guys?
That guy needs a rapala ripped through his nuts! Can't stand him. AND, his show blows bulls at a nickel a heard!

yeah
 

that bass smoochin s o b ..... hes the guilty bastage....

Re: Benny Houston...
 

WOW!

that's it HotFish...don't hold back tell us how u really feel:laughs: :laughs: :laughs:

Sorry boy's, it's just that I watch shows to keep myself busy in the winter and here's a guy who's made a living on his fresh water BS fishing, kissing fish, pretending to be some southern wholesome family man, and I know for a fact that the guys nothing more than a douchebag redneck who'd bangin anything he can get his fat fingers around, including 5 pound largemouths!
Then I read all the threads within NE and all we can do is beat up our own homebread show hosts who are doing what they can (yes for themselves, but also for our fisheries and business) for our local waters and fisheries, without ever hearing anyone bash those other asswipes. WHY! Jimmy Houston, Hank Parker, Roland Martin,......screw'em all. I'll take home bread jackass's over those other jackass's. Gotta support the home team!

Hurray for the home team....I agree Hotfish

OK guys and gals, here's something pretty interesting. Cable access is a huge opportunity for ANYONE to put a show on. Just call up or stop by your local cable provider and they can direct you to all of the resources necesary to produce your own show including the cameras. I looked into it a few years ago myself for a cooking show but, but, but, and then this happened and that came up and I just let it pass away. Going to look into it again this year for another kind of show. HMMMM I wonder ehat kind that would be... Maybe high-school news or maybe kripalu yoga.

On second thought...Cooking What You Caught sounds like a better idea.

Stay tuned

When you come right down to it....how many freakin' times can you watch some of these guys catch largemouth after largemouth, smallie after smallie, bonefish after bonefish without getting absolutely bored to sleep?:sleeps: Same techniques almost always, just different places....same darn fish, particularly Charlie Moore and Bill Dance.

Denfish
 

Denfish, I hear ya but I think there's a lot more to it than that, such as editing, production of the show and more. But definitely worth the effort. I don;t want to sound like I'm in the fan club or not but you all may want to check out the show "On The Hook" on NESN. It's all salt water fishing and various types, both inshore and offshore. It's a good show but the time sucks, Friday at 5pm. I'm lucky enough to work from home so I can tune in, but it is a good show, So far I've seen Tuna, Shark, Cod, Stripers, Bluefish, Fluke and I was just on the website and this week the guy goes Mahi fishing. And here's the best part for youre interest's Densfish, they actually have a segment where they cook the catch, sorry to ruin your night and future show, but it's being done on the show....

You know what Big Fish. I have to agree with some of the shows. But I like variety. I love watching Halibut come over the side. and Sharking is alwayse cool. I'm getting tired of Marlin though. I'd love to see a show on grouper/jewfish, Cod or even like to watch the King Crab fishing boats.

hotfish, I've seen the show too. didn't even register with me.

Anyway, the editing equipment and all that they will let you use. It's a $400 feeto sign up and get the neccesary instruction. There is another idea for chunk fishing. First one to the pole gets to bring it in. No holds barred and dirty tricks encouraged. Not on the jetty though.

I haven't watched Houston in years---does he still wear those stew-pid bangs? His hair always annoyed me more than that asinine laugh.

The guy's got to be over 60 and he still wears a Moe Howard do :rolleyes:

Denport
 

I met a guy who does that kind of thing from Nantucket (no rhyme coming up don't worry). Uses's the local tv cable companies equipment and all that, even edits it himself. I saw some of his video in a bait shop and while his effort was genuine the stuff he got was no way near anything you'd ever see on tv, and this guy said he'd been doing it for 4 years! I thinks there's more to it than we think and if it was easy, we'd all be doing it. It would be nice though....but I think I'd rather just fish as much as I can, get in trouble with the wife for coming home hours late only to go back out there the following day and deal with a ration of #^&#^&#^&#^& day in day out...........NOT!
