Got this from another site. Sounds interesting.

Veteran professional angler/lead diver Kim Stricker and his son (Danny) take television viewers into the fish's neighborhood with the debut of "Hook'n Look," a freshwater sportfishing program that incorporates real time underwater footage and fishing action in an all-new format.

The program debuts Tuesday, Jan. 1 at 5 a.m. on the Versus Network. Each weekly show will be repeated on Wednesday (8:30 a.m.) and Friday (3 p.m.) through June 23.

Much more than a fishing show, “Hook n’ Look” is a captivating fishing experience above and below the water's surface. In each episode, underwater videographers reveal how fish and their natural forage relate to the bottom and structure around it. They also demonstrate the action, appearance and effectiveness of today's hottest lures as they are presented beneath the surface.

In addition to the informative content, viewers will witness unexpected fish strikes, exciting fight scenes and captivating underwater action in the wild - all in an unprecedented format.

For example, the Strickers employ underwater communication equipment that enables them and celebrity guest anglers to share real-time conversations with viewers to enhance the educational and entertaining experience. Each program is filmed in an actual fishing environment.

Anglers not only see first-hand how proper lure presentations trigger strikes, but they will learn intriguing characteristics of lake and river bottoms and how they relate to successful angling tactics. The program will educate and inform viewers about the various types of forage and aquatic vegetation while creating public awareness of invasive species and other threats to the underwater world.

“Hook n’ Look” is truly unlike any other freshwater fishing show and will leave audiences mesmerized and yearning for more.

Any show that has more than a clown hooking a fish, yanking it to the boat on 60 pound braided line, and saying, "Yeehaw, it's a nassun," is worth watching at least once...

Michigan really needs a fishing show like John Gillespies Waters & Woods that's based in Wisconsin. It's on Fox sports north Saturday mornings. He does a new show every week, 52 a year so if you lived there you could see where they are biting & go give it a try. He's also fun to watch, gets really excited with a fish on. One episode he was fishing with Pete Mania & hooked a big Muskie. We thought he was going to have a heart attack. Here we have Michigan Out of Doors which sucks. If they show fishing it's from 3 months before & has no relevance to what's happening now.

Dish network has versus it's channel 151...and it has the outdoor channel 153. depends on what package you have though if you get it. If you don't get it i think you can get specific channels added to your package for like $2 per channel...you will have to check and see if they still do this. If I had the start up money and knew I could make the money I do now i would love to have my own fishing and hunting show..now that would be living!!!

Bailipanga,

Thanks, You are correct, I just checked the guide and it is 151. I may have to add this channel. You'd think for the $70 per month that I would already be getting it.
