The problem with these shows is they turn you into a puppet through their heavy handed direction, combined with their lack of knowledge of the subject matter in hopes of higher ratings... the result??? after editing you look like a friggin' clown...
Taken directly from their site: "as long as you are confident enough to take on anything we throw at you"
Translation: "we are TV guys, not fishermen, so we are going to make you do some stuuuuuuuupid forced-extreme nonsense"
I'll pass and just go fishing for fun...

Good luck Kevin , I unfortunately have a face for radio and lack any real fishing skills but I will sure watch it.
|
Does your incessant whining make you feel better? How about you just shut the hell up and suck it up? It's a fishing forum , so please just stop.

I just think it would be hilarious to be known as the top hooker in the USA.

Good luck to you Kevin! I agree that your story could help the cause!

I wonder if this is the same for all of their shows?
"Participant must never have been charged with, nor convicted of, a felony, or have felony charges pending against him or her.#^& Furthermore, Participant must never have been convicted of or have charges pending against him or her for any of the following misdemeanors:
Assault
Battery
Stalking
Making terrorist threats
Willful violation of a domestic violence protective order
Threatening a public officer or employee with violence
Intimidating a witness"
If so I know someone that is gonna be in trouble!

Why do keep bringing up that Stalking thing? It was only for a year for crying out loud.

Ok I did some digging on this show. I know someone pretty well that is on the short list to make the show. Currently they are filling the cast with representatives from all over the US and he is on his third interview and has submitted more than one video. That is not to say they are not going to be taking other north east anglers or pooling people for season 2. I can't tell you who it is. But it is someone I have fished with in the past

Good for you you might as well living through the big C as well as quadruple BP you gotta be tough as nails. The bypass alone will beat the snot out of you. I hope they consider you

That's awesome, Paul! Good luck with the next round! Being a top hooker sure would beat the hell out of being a bottom hooker. |

I'd agree with this. i mean they are going to try to get ratings and no one (outside of the fishing communtity) is gonna watch alot of what we as fisherman consider our skills. even i were eligible i probablly wouldn;t audition for it.
That said it should be something to watch, and to those of you who have entered, i wish nothing but the best of luck to you  |

Thanks. I think it might be a hoot. Plus I get paid to fish in a bunch of places I have never been. I haven't made it yet though. Just the first cut. |
