I like Gillespi’s show and format. New spot each week. No re-runs. Maybe its because we are about the same age and still think and act like kids trying to have fun most days.

I do wonder if any of the show is staged like other shows though.
Nope as real as it gets from my experience!

No sponsors, no show. I hope I really didn’t need to say that.
In my mind I was comparing the various sponsors we see “pushed” here on IDO and on the show versus the sponsors that are “pushed” on Waters and Woods. I just didn’t type it. We all have bills to pay

I don’t understand why people get worked up with the product promotion. Every fishing show does it, even the beloved IDO show. And why not? Might not be a sponsor for long if you don’t promote the product. Ever notice that Larry Dahlberg always seems to get hungry during filming and needs to get out his Jack Links? Seems like you could wait until done filming to eat. Gillespie is no worse than anybody else.
Larry doesn’t scream, “GRAB THE JACK LINKS. I’M MESSIN’ WITH SASQUATCH! AARRRRRGGGGHHHHH!”
I actually like guys who use the products they promote. James always has the Marcum and he explains a little bit about it. Larry takes a hunk of beef jerky and talks about the different features of Shimano. The Next Bite guys really like their Mercs and are good with explaining the benefits. They’re all clearly in-show commercials, but they’re unintrusive and informative. Gillespie is just plain obnoxious and it turns me off.

The only show I know of that was staged was Brett’s.
It was staged in the COLD!
I was at Everts when they came in that afternoon. Cold and windy. What was it? A week to 10 days after his pacemaker implant?

YES! Thank you. It is all about delivery. I don’t think any of us expect a show not to be sponsored.
I just dislike his show because he has no problem moving in on a guy on a 23,000 acre lake, copying what you’re doing exactly, then presenting himself and the guide as the people who busted their butts finding a techinique and fish. Then again, maybe I’m the only person he’s done this too, but I doubt it.
Just like anything we can talk about will everyone like him nope, does everyone like IDO, Mitchell,Keyes, Next Bite, etc nope. He has his own audience and thats who he caters to. No such thing as bad press right? These conversation happen weekly about his show I’m sure. Again he`s not for everyone but defiantly one of the most successful fishing shows around the midwest.Rumor has it a beloved cat guy is on the short list for an upcoming episode
I Gilespi the guy that runs around screaming and steals peoples fish and shakes them in front of the camera?

You forgot the part where he uncomfortably throws his arms over their shoulders and launches a Johnsonville down their throat.

Why bother posting on IDO?
Cause I am bored at work and I wanted to start a conversation.
Where do you work and do you have any openings?

Dean’s had John’s sausage before. He looked like he enjoyed his mouthful.

Oh my
Another BK classic!
I can appreciate the different point of views. Having worked with several media folks including John, we really had a lot of fun doing the shows I was in. If nothing else, I assure you he has energy an fun! I will admit that his style is remarkably similar and nearly as unique as BK and his 50, 000 posts!
Gillispee is as annoying as those little black flies that chew through your socks on a hot summer day.
Obviously a matter of taste and preference. Watching Angler’s Edge with Al Linder (Jason Halfen on today’s broadcast). While I know they are pushing product, I really prefer the way they are doing it over other hosts.
It just dawned on me. While I find John less than desirable I must admit I like watching Mike Iaconelli. Go figure.
