Hook and Hunt TV features Herman Brothers!

I filmed a show with hookandhunttv.com last month. It is now live online. The show's host Jim Crowley is a regular on Midwest Outdoors fishing and hunting show that airs on local channels across the midwestern states and nationally on the sportsmens channel. This is the first of 3 segments featuring the process of building, stocking, and catching fish on this 1/2 acre backyard pond.




We will be stocking fathead minnows this fall. Then we will be stocking feed trained smallmouth and feed trained hybrid striped bass along with bluegill in the spring. We will install a waterfowl aeration system over by the goose pit and a smallmouth bass aeration system out in the deep hole. We will grow more 4 lb hybrid striped bass and 3 lb smallmouth bass and 1 lb bluegill in this 1/2 acre pond than most people will catch in their lifetime of fishing in Illinois!

I am no good at tv shows or interviews yet and I look like a giant compared to Jim, but overall it was alot of fun and a good learning experience. Some day hopefully soon I will fulfill a lifelong dream of actually being on a real outdoor show on a national tv station.

  5. Thanks for the hehe at the end.....I'm just glad that Rachel didnt have a hehe at the end of her autograph request. I think she really does want my John Hancock as a keepsake. I just hope she doesnt go pawn it off to make a few bucks on Ebay or something.
