Hit Fishing Show Joins Fox Sports Net Addictive Fishing to Reach More than 81 Million Households Nationwide
Addictive Fishing, the half-hour saltwater fishing show credited with revolutionizing outdoor sports programming, announces that it will be televised nationally on Fox Sports Net. Addictive Fishing will reach more than 81 million households nationwide when the program begins airing on FSN on Sundays. The first show airs on July 2.
's8220;We's8217;re so amped to be joining the FSN family,'s8221; says Addictive Fishing co-creator and producer Kevin McCabe. 's8220;Now the whole country can see what why we's8217;re so not your typical fishing show.'s8221;
Addictive Fishing currently reaches more than 6.3 million viewers throughout Florida every week on Florida'ss Sun Sports Network.
Addictive Fishing has often been called the MTV of fishing shows, with its hyperkinetic camera work and hyper-caffeinated host, Captain Blair Wiggins (A.K.A, The Mogan Man, a nickname combining words biggans and monsters. Both mean big fish). Blair'ss surfer dude good looks and skill with a lure have attracted a following whose enthusiasm is more common among rock star fans than fishing show viewers. Addictive Fishing'ss fanatical fans even refer to themselves as Mogan Maniacs.
We pack more rod bendin's, drag screamin's action into thirty minutes than most shows manage in an entire season, explains McCabe.
This jam-packed season promises plenty of surprises, with episodes bringing viewers along on fantasy trips to fishing hotspots around Florida -- and the globe.
We'sre taking you to fight record-setting trout on the Space Coast and angle for super-exotic peacock bass on the Amazon'ss Rio Negro in Brazil -- all kinds of cool fishing adventures, Capt. Blair says.
Addictive Fishing is the brainchild of Blair Wiggins and Kevin McCabe, who turned a lifelong friendship and love of fishing into what'ss fast becoming something of a multi-media empire, combining TV, Internet, music (original scoring for the shows), tradeshows, tournaments, and even signature apparel and fishing gear ventures.
Addictive Fishing is way more than a TV show, McCabe says.
What'ss more, the Addictive Fishing team is concocting the sort of pixilated pixie dust that most TV shows only dream of, with big league outdoor industry sponsors like Ranger Boats, Evinrude, Johnsonville Brats and Carolina Lunker Sauce jumping aboard.
