Hunting Aoteoroa has been pig/deer hunting pretty much the last 4 or so weeks. Keen to see some fishing to be fair. Surprised they can get away with actually showing footage of cutting of throats and gutting dear right by the river side - hard case...
Amen Sir Squided one!!!! Normally out fishing when there on anyway . . . much more fun out there doin' it than watchin . .. admittedly they normally catch more and better than i . . ..

definatley sinclair but must say why itm was on that was a winner would so love to see more of that............hint hint geoff thomas yeh well sorry doesnt really hit the spot anymore same old same old bit like that bloody cook on sinclairs show master chef this master chef that.
BUT MY BIGGEST BIT.H ABOUT ALL OF THEM IS THERES NOT ENOUGH LAND BASED KERRAN we dont all have boats
Gone fishing, Great out doors, the ITM show have brought a breath of fresh air to the shows i watch oh and of course me old mate Billy Ho always informative and a bit of a laugh.
Great out doors and Gone fishing no matter what anyone says are still interesting and have done 1 hell of a lot for new zealand fishing as a whole.
look at it this way before ITM show came along what were you watching? I hear all sorts on here bagging them but i am sure if Geoff or Graham were regular contributors to this site they would not be spoken ill of.
Go ITM looking forward to the new seasons big boys having already sampled a wee bit of a big black boy have you guys got something to look forward to.
ITM number 1 easily. Can i have some free stuff now please
Hunting Aotearoa and Mr Sinclair pretty good too, same with Kai Time when they do fishin or huntin
Not a big fan of Mr Thomas & Mr Clancy's shows
The ESPN game fishing and free diving shows are pretty good, now they catch some massive fish. Fish On was another mean yankee fishin show. 3 hot chicks in bikinis pulling up marlin sailfish tuna and the like. What more could a red blooded kiwi male want. (maybe split screen all black game)
What a crock BA
Youve told me so many times you call a spade a spade, as do I, but now you say we wouldnt say a show is crap if the presenter was on this forum ?
Sorry mate, I will call it crap no matter whos around if its warranted
As for the ratings I only make a point of watching one as the others became even more crap once someone else set the standard

Thats all very well, I think the ITM fishing show is the best, but then they havent been on as long as the others.
I agree that we should see more land based and more kites and kontikis and maybe they could get a bit more technical as well. Most of the people watching are into fishing and if fishing is the biggest participation sport in NZ, we are fishos not TV watchers like most rugby, soccer or archery people. We go fishing.
So show us new new bits . How about the soft plastics and what is working best, what about netting flounder. Geoff Thomas had that guy in the Manukau catching flounder on line - I think it may have been a fly line actually. Good stuff. What about Snap going out and hunting down and killing the Great White that attacked him. Local Kiwi Boy gets revenge could be the title.
Don't like Derek the Chef much either, didnt think he was that great when he compered the Gulf Harbour Fishing competition. You have to be very circumspect when you move into the public arena, and he ain't the goods.
Graeme Sinclair does quite a good job , just like to see more variety, and a guy swallowing a billiard cue really doesnt do a lot for most fishos. We see enough gut hooked fish without some idiot doing this. Geoff Thomas, shouldn't do the acting in the advert for Gulf Harbour - its crap. I thought his show down by the Auckland Hrbour Bridge was quite good. He needs to stop treating us as though we dont know anything at all.
Finally 5pm, great fishing time - not TV watching time. Idiots who put the shows on at this time of the day.
You can go to the ITM fishing show on the TV website and watch all the shows so far - Good stuff.
Yea i hate it when the presenters start telling you how to fish rather then show them actually fishing like what fish dish is saying.
Just hardcore fishing for 30 minutes is all i want. and no commercials would be great, but thats asking for the impossible basically!
Cheers!

Any show hosted by a keen Kiwi angler who's taken the gumption to do what he's doing.....how can you take the piss out of a like minded person? I take my hat off to all of them - they are promoting a fantastic sport and long may they all continue. I must say I don't see to many as like a few here, tend to be out fishing a lot but do try and catch them when I'm not.
