Are you getting tired of watching fishing shows on TV

All those FW bass shows...I can't take another one.

I have to say that I think there are more SW shows on TV this year they ever before. It sustains me thru the winter. While it is fun, I need to do it myself. Soon....as soon as this snow melts.

I almost took the cover off the boat to install a couple new items but I think it is still winter out there.

I occasionally watch the one on OLN in the morning while at the gym. They are awful and the promoting of the sponsor's items never stops. Awful. Thanks to NESN, there are more saltwater shows on now than ever.

Saltwater Sunday on ESPN has become part of my winter routine.

0500 - Feed dog
0530 - Walk dog
0600 - Settle in for 4 hrs of fishing tv, coffee, and maybe some pastry.
1000 - Fishing turns to drag racing and I get started on the honey do list.

The "Bass Saturday" on ESPN does suck, but it remains on in the background.

OTW's sunday night show is great.

I love the simpsons.

I wish there was some hockey on TV.

March Madness is fun for now. FOR NOW.

I CANT WAIT FOR SPRING ANY LONGER I AM GOING INSANE

Talking

I like "Fishin' with Tom and Tina" on the Sporstman Channel. The video and audio never match any show on that channel and Tina has really, really big boobs! Ol' Tom Mann must have a lot of dough to keep her looking the way she does.

Why even try.........

I need an all saltwater all the time fishing show. I can't get up early on Sundays and it seems everytime I put on OLN it is damn Bull Riding.

Fishing shows still beat those stupid reality TV shows. But I'm ready for the real thing again.

My goal in life is to be the kind of man my dog thinks I am.

Cool

I watched all of them this past weekend on OLN.

Know what?

Seems like all these guys have in their vocabulary is two words.

"Nice"

and

"Fish"

Need the real thing soon....

Getting tired of reading magazines about it....

Catalogs....and more catalogs.....reading....ordering....

Sharpening hooks....playing with new rods in the garage.....

Going to talks...seminars.....shows.......

I even ordered some videos from the library today...all the ones with STRIPED BASS in the title

- Mike Laptew's stripers in paradise
- Secrets of the striper pros
- Striper school for new saltwater anglers

Feel like Jack Nickleson in The Shining......All work and more SNOW make Jim a dull boy...


Jim

FWW, you got that right! My GF can hear a fishing show from the next room and I will hear her saying "Nice fish!" We usually bet the under/over on how long before someone on the show says "nice fish"....seems to be in the 40 second range

I'll admit to much FW fishin does get old , then again if it where all striper boat fish it would get old and if it where shore bass NewEngland cells would get crowded. Its fine just the way it is imo.
