Freeview WFN

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Yup, if you ever thought about it, now's a great time to see what you may be missing. I find it hard to get anything done at home now. Check it out folks. If you're unsure, there's no better time than to preview before you make a decision.

Cheers,

I've had this channel since it came out, and there are definately some quality fishing shows, wether it be bob izumi's real fishing, fishin canada, or the new in-fisherman show, if you like fishing tv then you'll enjoy the channel, it just comes down to what other channels you have to buy with it to get it...

The free preview is over, if you already have the digital box, it is an additional $2.49 a month plus taxes.

The Professional Tarpon Tournament Series was awesome to watch. The winner on the show I saw weighed in at 172 lbs.

Yep, it's over. :(

I watched a few shows. My favourite one was on Saturday night called Watts Up taped in Florida. Four guys, two boats, a friendly competition with bragging rights. Who ever can bring in the most barramundi (had to look it up for more info) in four, 30 minute sessions. They must caught 100 plus fish between the four of them in those two hours. It was tied two sessions each so the deciding factor was 6 lbs fish.

The New Fly Fisher show was interesting also. At first I wasn't going to watch since I'm not really interested in flyfishing but they were on the Ottawa river so I watched the end of it.

I tuned in 'cause I am thinking of adding it to my lineup. Unfortunately, for every good show, there're 2 shows that don't really hold my attention. Well - any show that doesn't include bass won't hold my attention so it's my fault really. Need more Extreme Angler and Bass Tech, less Shelley and/or Courtney. I could do without being subjected to watching that drivel...

I've had the channel pretty much since it began. I agree with the less Shelley and Courtney and more Extreme Angler. I caught the new Lindner show that started last week, and I have to say, it is now in the top 4 of the shows I watch. Just awesome. It's a great channel for sure.

I am a subscriber to WFN and although it might sound sexist (and it is not) but I agree as well with a little less Shelley & Courtney....like none at all. :roll: Very little value added from that show and they could sure use some writers for their dialogue. :roll: I usually switch the channel when their show comes on. :evil:

I agree with you Matcolecat, I thought the Santa & Rudolph fishing for cod was not of much fishing knowledge value but it was very entertaining :lol:

I like that channel and now since Al Lindners shows is on its now awsome with the other good show like Extreme Anglers, Bob Izumi real fishing show, the Next Bite etc. But I agree on the Shelley and Courtney show they should had less of that show.
