Does anyone have experience with creating a fishing show?  Our goal is to have it run on local access, with the ultimate plan to have it picked up by a big station such as ESPN or Versus.

I'm looking for any advice anyone may have to offer.  I have a plan of my own, but I've never done this.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Start from the bottom and work your way up.  First off start with a website, put videos on there, build traffic to your site.  Once you become popular and fully noticed, then maybe you can do a proposal to a big network.  YouTube is great way to get exposure.

Youtube is a way better bet than a local station. Even on a local station, you need a big budget to pay for gear and crew. Local stations won't accept fuzzier sound quality than they already provide. Youtube will put you on a national level. It is how a few television shows started out.
