Title: My own fishing show!!!!!
Post by: Jared Jeffries on February 07, 2013, 06:59:04 AM
Hey guys, I have some VERY exciting news.  You all know how obsessed I am with boating, fishing, and spending time out on the open waters.  So it will probably come as no surprise to any of you that I am launching my very own fishing show!  So the time I spend off the court this summer will be amazing!!!

It'll be time spent doing what I love and letting all of you join in on the action! As of now, I think I'll be focusing mostly on jigging and popping, but really, the sky is the limit. And since we start filming in April, I need suggestions from you all! What do you want to see? Where should I go? What should I do? Who should I bring? Let me know! I want this to be the biggest, baddest fishing show on television! So send me your suggestions on how to make it so! I hope you're excited as me!

Thanks

Jared WHO..?

Sorry but when i started to read the post i was thinking you was Jarrod Day from Victoria.
Please Explain (Pauline Hanson like) who Jared Jeffries is. Not being rude at all i just don't know you.
If your from Australia come to Sydney and show Tommy Du how to avoid the Leatherjacket's when jigging for YellowTail KingFish.

Edited:: Ok i just put Jared Jeffries into Google search and you are a NBA player that loves fishing. Now me not being a big basket ball fan i did not know the name Jared Jeffries. I still say come to Sydney and show Tommy Du how to avoid the Leatherjacket's when jigging for the YellowTail KingFish. I hope you have a sense of humor and understand my comments.

If anyone from Australia is like me and did not know the Man here is a link with a good read about the Man himself. http://espn.go.com/blog/new-york/knicks/post/_/id/20972/jeffries-takes-charge-on-the-open-water

Jared,

I suggest you to be adventures and explore untouched ground, you have the money and the ability and as you said the sky is the limit!
i will personally go the where no other person been, i believe this is how you will attract the crowd but from the info that i have you are not willing to go to certain places because of security reason.
i wish you luck on your new adventure :)

I would watch a show that respects fish, promotes catch and release, and killed nothing.

I am willing to fish anywhere, thanks for all of your ideas.  The only restrictions are the getting all the permits to film in certain countries.  It should be an exciting adventure.

Hi Jared

Looking forward to your show. Hope it promotes catch and release! Hate to see fish being gaffed and slaughtered in the name of entertainment. Cheers!

Sounds great Jared, I know you have fished Vanuatu before with Ocean Blue so no doubt you like your fishing and will travel.  I would like to see either shows that fish remote locations Oman etc or well known locations but using  different techniques than what is usually shown. Good luck
