WFN opinion

[Bear]

Well Starchoice finally picked up the World Fishing Network channel.

While I'm just a week and a bit into it I'm not too impressed

I know I should give it a bit but , what your opinion.

is there too much salt water and Aussie fishing going on.

Finding I'm watching the regular channels for the shows I want to see.

Is it worth it (glad it's a two month preview)

[jmikail]

I like it but I could not watch it all day because of the re-runs and the fly-fishing.

I like saltwater fishing, so that's fine with me.

Once they pick up more subscribers, they will be able to afford newer and better shows.

for me the next bite is the main one i watch

I can't stand another minute of "Fishing The Flats"
At first I was impressed with the tarpons but I am tired of them now. can't stand that Rex guy from Australia.

But there is a lot of shows that are very good. Lots of repeats. But you have to expect repeats.

Classic patterns is a MUST if you like bass fishing... Just dont spend too much on lucky craft lures... like I did Bass tech is also good sometimes (when they remade a boat form the pond). The last cull is pretty good too if you wanna host a fishing show one day

[Kpin]

what channel and time is it on? (do agree with fishing da flats though). Honestly think a crew of us, without exp. could put on a better show...then again, I'm biased towards all of your fishing expertise and my lack thereof.

[jmikail]

can't stand that Rex guy from Australia.

That guy is awesome. After watching fishing shows for YEARS, I like hosts with personality and a sense of humour and Rex has it.

Is this a Canada thing or do we get it in the states? Joe.

[Kpin]

Dunno Joe but I do know you guys get the Soprano's uncut and a president that can break more than one law at the same time with one Cuban cigar and still smile while he plays the sax.

God Bless America! Where do I sign up for the cigar/ gov't escort..um..I mean, paige..or sect... well, I don't really care about the title. Your in NJ Joe, make it work and set me up compa. I promise ALL the snow you want in return.

(You guys laugh now but just wait till we're dead and gone and fresh water supplies cost more than kryptonite laced with diamonds and water from the fountain of youth. We'll be selling glaciers, ice and snow globally. Snowmen will be worth a small fortune. Ice will actually mean ice and not diamonds and Swarzaneager will become president.

You heard it here first. Oh yeah and Richard Simons will finally get his gender reassignment to become a man and most likely Joe will slap me in the head for derailing the thread and just being silly.

WFN World Fishing Network is one of the most watched channels in our home. Yes there are shows that I do not like and i just dont watch them. But for the most part, it is an awesome channel, with very informative material for even the most experienced fisherman. Combined with the Wild TV Channel with more hunting than fishing, together these two channels have to keep the outdoorsman tuned and glued to their sets. Now back to the 108 inch colour tv.

Us lowley Videotron subscribers do not get WFN. The brother-in-law had it for a couple of months on Bell Express View and I spent a lot of time over this this winter, until the free viewing was stopped. Now I spend a lot of time in the basement playing with tackle.

I really like that channel I know theres some show thats are better than others but every show are like that. Since we got WFN on Star Choice I spend lots of time watching sitting and watching it. For the one ho followed the tournament trail the FLW trail is on and me I like to followed the tournament trail. A pretty good channel. But theres the regular show that I was watching before on other channel and I still watch those show as well.

[Relic]

FISH O' Mania What a fantastic show

They seriosly need to get more programming, Where's In fisherman or Linders angling edge?? There is much better shows out there than what we are paying for.

For me the only really good INFORMATIVE show's are The Next Bite and good ald BOB..........Hotlines isn't to bad either.

Unless you fish Bass or Saltwater WFN is not worth it.

I had this channel for almost a year when it first came on. I liked watching and did so quite often. After the free intro period ended, I stopped watching. In fact it kinda gets me ticked that they want additional cash to have this channel. I could understand if the channel was commercial free, but is sure as heck isnt! So on top of the money they make from advertisers and then as well subscribers, I personally think that WFN is a complete and total cash grab on someones behalf! I had also found a lot of shows to be quite dated and older. Not to mention as someone else already commented on...that I really have little interest in fishing the flats, fishing in Australia or those fishing tournaments they do in the U.K for carp in a stocked mud puddle.

If the channel made its revenue from advertisers alone like every other broadcaster, I would enjoy watching it. Although this isnt the case and therefore I do not think it is good cost value what so ever.
