Does anyone else remember the fnet faithful gathering at a pub out west (was it the Cock and Bull?) to view the first episode - the sense of excitement that here was something that would liven up the stuffy and, quite frankly boring, fishing shows that were on at the time. I also recall deep discussions with Kezza at a pissup at Billfish's place and his concern that TVNZ were playing hardballl with them over the show. I believe my advice was "feck the raitings, just produce good quality." The team at that time was pretty much Matt and Kezza and they worked bloody hard to give us something different and exciting. It varied each week...and it was good. Congratulations to all concerned on what is still the best fishing show around. |
