There was only 1 kayak fishing episode...and not very well done, compared to the other shows. There are some unique shows throught out seasons 1 - 4, but not surfcasting. NY?, NJ?

[QUOTE=piemma;670549] It probably didn't air as that morning was absolutely pee soup fog and I imagine the quality of the film was less than optimal. QUOTE]

That's GREAT news.

:thanks:

Today's broadcast was done in 2007. Live lining pogies from a boat off Fisher's Island. Still did the trick for my Sunday morning fix, as that is probably my favorite style of fishing off the boat.

How about a show on how to pee over the gunwhale in six foot snot while wire lining at the same time.

That's a true fishing challenge. Despite all the criticism I really like the show it would be nice if the hosts emoted once in a while. They honestly catch a 100# bass and don't even smile, "that's a respectable fish". Is about all they have to say.

all in all I really like the show and thank you to you guys who put it together. Keep it coming.

Hooks into this thing and has to follow it in the boat for 1/2 a mile down river while fighting it...then hop out and lands it on shore.

Friggin thing had to be 8' long and weigh 300 easy.....And he's hugging the thing after he landed it.

CaptMike 03-31-2009 07:29 AM

Yeah that was a scary lookin thing, I don't think I would jumped in and hugged it like that, although maybe if I were on tv I would have

Face it, between OTW and the NE Angling, the northeast has been covered, nearly every species inshore, offshore and onshore using every method has been filmed. Last week I watched guys catching porgies (scup) and winter flounder...that is how bad it is. All the formally "secret" places that were rarely fished have now been fully exposed.
Next week we should be seeing how to catch and cook dogfish and cunners. Dalberg is an entertaining guy but mostly does fairly exotic locations that 99% of fishermen will never see. I like Jose too but even his shows are getting a little predicable now.

My favorite OTW show was the Cinto relives, I think what the did with the old footage, the music, the boats and all was touching. I think a lot more thought and planning went into that show than dragging spreader bars off Chatham for 40" tuna.

I would like to see a reality show format about fishery management and the behind the scenes illegal comm fishing busts.


IMO I think you will see OTW drop the TV show. Their show is stale with way too many repeats. Advertising on that show is costly. Boating companies are REALLY hurting. Add the two up and you will see a drop of advertising revenue. Also, I noticed there seemd to be a lot fewer ads in this months OTW...although there was a nice side profile of #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&...:tooth:
