I was Kid growing up in Patterson projects in the South Bronx when I first saw this show on New York station WPIX on Saturdays mornings. It was 3 year latter I grab my H.S Diploma on a Thursday and Jointed the US Army on a Friday; and have lived and enjoyed the outdoors ever since. THANK YOU FOR SHARING.........
I did the sound effects on this show for two years. All those fish jumping out of the water and falling back in! Rods whipping, birds flying out of the brush, etc.
I always thought he did the American Sportsman, but was wrong I guess. I remember him marlin Fishing and so exciting. It was a show on Marlin and they were skunked all day and then at dusk "suddenly!" He was so dramatic it was captivating. Thanks so much for this.
I wish we could find the episodes somewhere. The one I remember most was about a blue marlin fight that lasted for 16 hours ... full of drama ... every narrated word delivered deep meaning in the moment or in metaphor.
