Watched a few of his videos today while wasting time at work.

Anybody know Tony Fontenot personally? Seems like a cool guy.

I like them. I especially like when they have a chef come in and cook the fish they caught up on the show.

Tony is a real good guy and fisherman. He has owned a home improvement company here in Thibodaux for over 25 years, and I have never heard anything detrimental about either he or his company.

I've fished with Bo Grafton (the dermatologist that sponsors) and Tony's son in law (cameraman) on Reel Addiction. Great guy. Tony seems to be a good dude too, but I've never met him.

Anyway, our episode is still on my DVR and I break it out every now and then.

Tony staryed out on HTV in Houma. Seems like a nice guy. A coworker of mine knows him pretty well.

Tony is the real deal, what you see is what you get. Now I am biased because im his son in law haha. But he really is a good guy who would give a stranger the shirt off of his own back, probably literally cause he's crazy like that.

If you really like his show find him and like him on facebook or instagram or comment on a youtube video. He personally runs his instagram account and interacts with people all of the time through it. His wife runs the facebook for the most part, but it always makes his day when new people follow along.

If yall ever had specific fishing questions about fishing in dularge/dulac or general trout/redfish, he would definitely answer them.to the best of his abilities.

He always tells me that he's not the greatest fisherman (thats why he's always got fishing captains on the show), he's just a regular guy who likes to fish and decided to make a fishing show. Im glad he did too, because I live in baton rouge and practically have a guided fishing trip whenever I can make it down there!

I like him...very personable...every time the cooking segment comes on he doesn't mess around and goes straight for the bite...

I actually could deal with him in a boat...

Any specific techniques youre looking for TJ? Or just general stuff? Hes always looking for new ways to make the show better and is very open to ideas/constructive criticism or show requests.

Are you thinking, how to work specific baits? Which baits to use? How to choose the right bait?

I don't think I've ever met him, but he's my dad's cousin. My dad was a guest on a show at Toledo Bend.
