Tuna Shootout on Big Coast this Wknd

Not sure if everyone is aware but there are 2 episodes with the tuna shootout. One episode has only 3 minutes worth.there is a full episode with the shootout. Not much coverage of the event but a full episode nonetheless.
 
I like the show, and like the guys that host the show. I like their stoke while on the water. I like the boats they fish out of. I like that they are closer to regular joe fisherman than top notch guides. Sure, they maybe back off the drag a little much to let the reels spin and zoom in on the reel, but you all have to realize their top sponsor is Islander.

For all the complainers, change the channel.
 
Why can't people say they don't like it? That's ridiculous. I don't really like it, has its ok spots, as when I watch a show I want to learn some things and those guys have no idea what they're doing. Plus their snowboarder lingo all show gets annoying by the end.

Pretty much nailed it Dave. It's kinda like the Jim Shockey haters on HBC. The little green man show's up in the mirror every morn lol.

Yes Kildonan, this thread is a cluster LOL!!!!
 
I liked the bit they did on the pink salmon festival that aired this past weekend. That kids was having a blast and so was Tim.
 
Kind of presumptuous to believe that just because someone says a show isn't good, it must be because they are jealous. Not jealous at all, I probably fish just as much as them if not more. "Groovy fish dudeeeee" is a bit much.

Fishing is for fun man. You should try it some day :).

I can't knock this. Any TV coverage is great for exposure for any event. Any of these shows are hard to get as they are so busy to cover any event. You guys were pretty lucky.... Hats off it sounds like you are pretty organized with putting this on. BTW If you don't like something on TV you don't need to watch?
 
Oh ya.. Their camera man gets sea-sick. Lol
 
I like one video of fishing in Juan De Fuca Strait...I fish this water quite often...thick fog at times during the summer months. fat short stubby columbian springs are famous for this stretch of water.
 
I generally prefer this show over many others as it is more relaxed and does not leave the impression that you are stupid if you don't catch 4 tyees a day. I can live with their sponsor plugs as well. But that Tuna show was terrible. If I didn't know better I would say tuna fishing sucks. it definitely was not helpful in raising interest in this fishery.
