Yep the TV fishing shows suck you in.
Fished the St. Lawrence a few times, caught some nice fish.
Fished all over Alaska for two weeks and caught some nice fish as well.
But not like the one week of fishing TV show, edited down to 20 minutes plus commercials.
Also could be I just suck at fishing.....

I hear you man, I fished with a guide down in florida A few years back. The guy was next to useless but that's another story...a started ignoring him and just doing my own thing. Finally started putting fish in the boat but nothing over 2.5 lbs. needless to say my rule now is to never pay to fish out of state for species I can catch in good old nj!
