Title: .... Trivia Question with Prize ...
Post by: LoneWolf on Jun 27, 2006, 06:14 PM


We thought we would try somewthing different. We are going to give a clue related to fishing trivia. The first member with the correct  answer will win a ten pack of baits from Niffken.com.  :thumbup_smilie:

Each night we will add a new clue until we get the correct answer ... this is for fun and for all MFF members.
Only one guess per post please .... don't rattle off 20 guesses in a post.



First clue ..... fishing show


Good Luck !

"the Fishing Hole" with Jerry McKinnis

JM Associates has been around since the 1980's when they produced the first outdoors show ever on ESPN. That show was "the Fishing Hole with Jerry McKinnis".

Gadabout Gaddis - The Flying Fisherman

By the way Bob - you're old!

I forgot that one.

Mac

We have a winner !

Man you guys are good. I thought this would have gone at least two days !!

For those that don't know The Flying Fisherman ran from I believe 1963 thru about 1970. He had a float plane and fished a different body of water each week. I also believe he had the first "fishing show" on TV. Around 1940 a network aired "home movies" of him fishing. He also entertained our troops during WWII with his movies and easy going nature. I believe he was from Maine.

Congrats Mac ... contact me with name/addy !!

Darn Mac, if you had retired last week you'd have still been sleeping and I'd have scored.  ;D
Way to go. As a kid I was a Gadabout wannabe. He was a character for sure. Rode the rails during the depression. Hooked on with a fish camp in Fla and when the guy died he left it to Gadabout. From there he rose to "fame"' as, was it the Flying Fisherman or the Fly In Fisherman?

Mac you dog you. Whatta'ya doin' up that late anyway? I didn't even know about this contest until I got to work this morning. Then I had to dodge the boss, scroll thru a couple of pages of wrong answers looking to see if anyone guessed Gadabout Gaddis before I could post it, and all for nothin'. Anyway good pluck and let us know what they gave you for winning. Uh-oh here comes the boss!

I see, thanks Mac for clearing it up, and don't worry about acting like a kid,

Hey Mac, if they could dig up some of the clips of his old show these young "kids" around here would think it was a comedy show.

  Hey LoneWolf, you gotta start this contest in the morning when we're all at work so we have something to do. ::) Not everyone has a computer at home, and even if you do you can't get the kids away from it.

Post by: HOOKEMNCOOKEM on Jun 28, 2006, 02:52 PM
Arch, I was born before '63 (1955) so I guess I'm an old fart like Mac. I used to watch this show all the time, it probably helped to get me hooked on fishing. Also, he did go to a whole bunch of far-away places ( at least far-away to us when we were young ) so that was pretty cool.
Title: Re: .... Trivia Question with Prize ...
Post by: Pikeguy on Jun 28, 2006, 03:02 PM
Yea.
And it had some real good special effects.

I'm trying to remember if it was in color or B/W.
Our tube was B/W.


HA!

Tough to remember it in color then...unless you had a very vivid imagination  :P

I remember it was in black and white but my next door neighbor said it was in color. But he was looking at it through the windowpane. ::)
