The Fishing Musicians is not a hard core fishing show - it's funny, it's different and if the fishing turns out as good as the adventure then we have had great luck.
The Fishing Musicians is a 13-part television series about fishing, travel, entertainment and music hosted by Glen Ferguson. It will highlight the recreational and economic value of sport fishing as well as the importance of conservation and environmental action, and the promotion of music and culture in Canada and around the world.
The adventure is as important as the fishing, sitting on the bank and thinking, relaxing, joking, playing music, daydreaming, whatever!
Well-known Canadian musicians and entertainers such as Jimmy Flynn, who enjoy the sport of fishing, will guest host on the program. Film locations will cover Canada and other area of the world. The show will benefit both the average and experienced angler.
Catching fish is exciting but to us that's not what the show is all about. Music, culture and the great outdoors are just as important.
