IFish is great, but YoufishTV and Jason's Kennedy are my favourite. The Strikepro reviews give Fishin Trip the edge for me.

Gonna give Robson my vote. For two reasons..one, his show isn`t a gigantic advert for pure fishing or shimano, diawa, tackleworld, etc, etc.
Secondly, I grew up just down the road from hazelrigg, (where he`s from). And where he lives now used to be one of my favourite runs on the bike..
I know shows like IFish contain some really good tips, but it`s becoming more and more product orientated. Jason Kennedy`s show being probably the worst offender.
Adventure bound I`d really like to see, (always liked Lee Rayner as a presenter), just don`t know channel or times..
Beno, if and when your show makes the breakthrough, please try and remember some of the comments made on this thread and one`s of a similar topic..alternatively, just take the money and become a corporate ***** like the rest..lol..at least you`ll get paid for fishing..

For such a small country, the time it takes to make these shows, they need all the sponsors they can. Robson is not exactly innocent, and is more network orientated than anything. Jason Kennedy has a strike pro segment, wears a Berkeley Shirt and uses a variety of rods and lures. I don't see the issue. I mean they are on Channel 31 of all channels, Free to Air, self paid, not selling their shows to 5 different networks like Robson. Robson....man doesn't he talk crap, he should just shut up half the time. He's just a try hard River Monster/Patrick Sebile.... :tongue:

Course Robson talks a load of crap..he`s an actor, not a pro angler..lol...
Jason Kennedy also has the motackle segment, the bit where he promotes whoever he`s out on the water with, JB`s pure fishing plug, the latest Gulp s/p promo..it just seems never ending..he`s ok as a presenter, probably a very decent bloke. I understand he needs sponsors to keep the show running, but it just becomes an advert with a touch of fishing thrown in..anyhoo, each to their own mate.. :tongue:

If it gets anywhere my aim is to keep it as an natural fishing show as possible. It will have to have sponsors otherwise I just can't see it happening. My sposnorship is coming together in the next few months so we will see how it goes.... :cheers:

Enjoy watching the 3 on Ch31 on Saturday nights, Adventure Bound would have to be a favourite. Also enjoy listenening to 1116 Saturday mornings to Rex and Lee.

I love coming home everyday and watching iFish at 5oclock but needs to focus on more landbased in vic. In my opinion catch and cook is just plain bad. Even when the lady is cooking it's like she's trying to read her words off a script or something and the fishing isn't as enthusiastic as shows like iFish or Adventurebound.
