The easy part of doing a TV fishing show is... Filming the Fishing action.
Then you do the editing... figure 4 hours editing time for each hour of video you shot.
Here is another easy part... then you buy time on the TV station. Sorry, they do not buy TV shows, they sell broadcast time. You know all those informercials you see on TV?
Then to get your money back, and hopefully to make a little profit, comes the HARD part. Sell Advertising.
First...
I highly recommend you give Ben Wong (Let's Go Fishing) or Dean Sensuia (Hawaii Goes Fishing) a call and invite them to go fishing with you. That will give you a very good idea of how actually hard it is to just film a TV fishing show.
If I was going to try to get "Sponsors"... I would put together a bunch of 1 to 2 minute, action Packed, You Tube videos... When you start getting thousands of "hits" on your videos... the sponsors will jump on board.
Keep it short, to the point and action packed...
If you check out the 30 second commercials on TV... they average from 12 to 15 different shots.
That's what your YouTube video should be... a commercial to sell you, the guy catching all the fish.
There just happens to be some products like rods, reels, clothing, sunglasses, line lures, boats and such in the video. You don't have to really even mention the products. If your successfully catching fish the viewers (and sponsors) will notice exactly what your using... we see it in movies all the time... product placement.
