Orlando Wilson was the worst, I think that was his name. He always wore the Atlanta braves SnapBack hat. He was so boreing.

I liked Roland Martin show when he did an episode where he was fishing in waders in lake okeechobee and throwing a lunker lure and catching pigs!

Orlando was pretty boring, but I was/am a huge Braves fan so I always liked him.


Roland would catch some monsters. But he also would catch the same bass 6 times a show with 6 different camera angles. And his "SON!!" that he hollered every time he set the hook got on me nerves.

No no no, it was me (LSUballs) who left out Bill Dance. And I did it cause he wasn't my favorite or least favorite.

Hank was my all time favorite.

Can't think of one I really disliked except for maybe one those Muskie fishing Yanks like Al Linder.

Yea, on Al Linder. And on Mark Sosin and his saltwater journal while you're at it.

Bill Dance was great if for no other reason that without Bill Dance Outdoors there would be no Bill Dance Outdoors Bloopers!

Hank Parker was great. I seem to remember a show where he was pond fishing and he couldn't catch a fish. They kept getting off the hook. It just seemed real, like he didn't care if he did a show where he didn't catch a fish.

Bill Dance is a fishing god though. If only he found a better hat.
