I did a Fed & watched the show

Yep Yep that Andrew Crappy Clarke Chappy is bloody hopeless & any new commers to the sport should NOT pay wun bit of attention to him.

The guys hopeless.

At least now I know where all those I've argued with on forums get their info from

Twits like him

I dont watch to many fishing shows or video's very few indeed but if they're anything like the tactics shown on Adventure Bound I'm missing Nut Tings

All the guys on TV shows are the same Jumpy, they're childlike in the way they handle their gear and stumble around the boat.
Adventure Bound is really one of the better shows, it's a pity their lead man (Neil Tedesco) died as he wasn't too bad.
I always laugh when they can't get their rod out of the holder with a fish on.

Actual not all Fed most are only there to promote products think ET's how is the worst example of the lot

Really think 100% Pure fushing is the best of the lot Even the host wots his name ??

Con the Fruiterer & his 5 gleek mother-in-laws Toola , Voola , Coola , Mu Mu La & A Gumpy

That irriot He's OK on the rod if only he could put a sock in his mouth

Guests they have on the show know their stuff as well

Is that the guy that keeps on saying "Stop the bus" and "Gone like last weeks pay packet"?

Yeah !

That's the idiot

IFISH show doesn't seem to be too bad...also a bit of laugh too....
I think the new hosts of Fishing Western Australia are terrible......

Haven't seen either of those

They are on the Foxtel Lifestyle channel on Saturday & Sunday....

I'll ask Spud if he can Zot me a Fox so I can watch them

That is the best show IMO... always get a laugh and he/they respect the fisho that is putting them onto fish. They will always try 2 or 3 different methods to catch fish in the same area, then explain why and how..

My thoughts...

advertorial's those shows with a bit of fishing to fill in between adds, not worth the time to watch them, if we had a camera and a bit of time there would be enough talent on this site to make a real fishing program.

jumpus to direct

i think we should have fed and bees knees out front of the camera for the salt water seen's.

spud and majed for the fresh water stuff.

and young twit top to do the boat reviews.

now who is going to expand on this idea, perhaps an idea or two for a script.

Paul

Sum Ting that I thought of a couple of years ago poly

I'll never do it cause I couldn't be bothered BUT

Imagine having a whole days fishing being streamed via video camera & uplink on a boat
Straight to peeps PC's where they can log on & see wot it's really like out there without all the bullshit editing these shows go through

For instance a day out Marlin fishing, or better still an arvo spent cubing for YFT

The audience gets to see everything the action, the boring bits the whole package

Same can be done fishing for snapper or any other species

Prob with these shows is ewe only get to see the juicy bits & that's not wot a day's fushing is all about

Reckon mounting a camera @ boat ramps would be a the Biggerest laugh anywun could have as well watching all the fruitloops trying to launch & retrieve their boats

that would win an Oskar for best comedy

Paul

its all about the $$$$ fellow fishos,

from the man holding the rod down to the fishieee

Just watched a good Comedy Show on TVS

Twas called Adventure Bound

That Andrew Clark Chappy is so Hopeless it twas COMICAL

Fishin' Trip (the guy that says 'stop the bus') is pretty good. I like it. The guy knows how to use lures and catches quality fish. I don't mind his mouth and how he talks, he's just trying to be entertaining. He also used light line a lot, yesterday they were jigging kings and after he got a few on the heavy stuff he swapped to the 14lb stick and sent down big SP's. They were in Yamba and the skipper broke out the 6kg stick too and had some fun with AJ's, almost got spooled too which was funny to watch.

River 2 Reef is OK now that Al McGlashlan is on it, but the other guy (the greek one) is bloody hopeless. They still have the boring boating and maritime info...... FFS get rid of that crap. They obviously realised they needed Al because the guys before it knew nothing and were boring as bat sh*t.

Hook, Line and Sinker is pretty good too. They try funny things such as fly fishing with old cane rods like in the beginning of the century, before graphite. They managed some nice trout too and watching that cane load up was awesome!

I can't stand Paul WORSTeling. Otherwise iFish is good, even if it is promotional.

ET is terrible because of the constant plugging of brands and products, but that's how he makes his $$$.

I also agree Fishing WA was better with the old hosts. The blonde guy that shouts all the time is off putting.

My 2c.

That's the guy with the 5 greek Mother-in-laws



If you're refering to the guy from Pirteck ??

He is very good, knows his stuff & is very smooth working fushys with the rod not to mention quite knowledgable

Haven't seen the other shows exept ET's which I think is rubbish

The Adventure Bound Show from last night was a joke that Andrew Clarke should be Zotted

Many moons ago when I started fushing land based there were alot of cowboys like that clarke chappy

BOLTERS

They'd burn themselves out after 10 minutes, Wun day I watched this old chappy fighting a YFT he wasn't in a hurry, very smooth with his rod work he was a

STAYER

Naturally when I hooked my 1st GooDarus Fushy I copied his style & never looked back.

That Clarke chappy jerks, wanks his rod like there's no tommorro but never seems to gain any line till fush bust him off

50 lb braid to catch a 3 kg blurter was a joke & when he lost the next wun he put that outfit away & went for the 80 lb outfit

A rod should never lose it's loaded bend in a fight to many peeps just drop the rod & 4get to wind line back onto the spool

Keep the rod bent @ all times slowly lowering not droping it , ewe lower as you're turning the reel this way there's allways constant pressure on the fushy limiting the chance of pulling hooks moreso important on the lighter line classes.

Jerking a rod can only result in a hole wearing on the hookup point with a greater chance of hook dislodgement

JUMPY you forgot the lift that is just as impotent, it should be firm but even, I have a word for it soft hands an even firm lift, and wind it down not drop the the rod like i have seen done to many times.

Paul

If you don't have the lift then that is really impotent and it will never be firm.
You always amuse me Poly, thanks mate.

No, but I agree he is very good and knows his stuff. His name is Michael Guest, apparently he's a good Rally Driver too.

Jason Kennedy is the fat greek guy. He's good too, no doubt. He has the Guest bloke on his show a lot so no doubt they would have learnt from each other.
