In our industry there are a few legends that have been with us over the years. A few select people who have shaped our industry. One in particular that some would say is the voice of sportfishing. I grew up watching his shows, his voice narrated the scenes, he told the story. A voice to this day most will recognize, Michael Fowlkes. Michael’s show Inside Sportfishing was the most influential television show for a 27 year run. Michael was a pioneer in conservation with his closing statement in every episode, “We all share one planet, one ocean and have only one chance, so do your part, make a difference, practice CPR, Catch, Photograph and Release.” Which at the time was revolutionary and is considered common practice with many species now.

We are proud to announce the world premier of a sneak preview sizzle reel from Inside Sportfishing Films upcoming epic 10-hour 10-part documentary series entitled A Tribute to the History of Sportfishing. This will take place at the Pacific Coast Sportfishing Show Saturday March 4th, on the mega screen inside the Hangar Building. The reel will be playing throughout the show from 10am till 7pm. You will not want to miss this amazing premier of a film series that will go down as one of the best preservations of our history as fisherman and the sport we love.

    Literally the Saturday AM show, every week, we watched as kids, dreaming of a cow on a stand up rod “West Coast Style” and a Braid harness. Long range dreams. Still love the episodes.

    Michael and Inside Sportfishing were must see TV. Many of us grew old watching it.
