Season 10 of IDO TV is in the books!

I’ll be the first to admit that I never thought we’d be fortunate enough to see a second season of broadcast let alone be talking about completing a tenth season like we did Monday afternoon when we pulled the boat off the water after a fantastic day of fishing on Chequamegon Bay. Mike Anselmo and I spent the day chasing smallmouth on what is one of the better bass fisheries in the Midwest. Right now water temps are in the low-60’s and the fish will eat just about anything thrown their way! We had a good run in the AM on paddletails and jerkbaits and the fish switched over to a Marabou Jig bite midday that produced big fish on almost every cast for a couple hours. We weren’t blessed with any real giants but the number of 3.5 – 4.5 lb fish caught made for a lot of fun and a great way to close out our broadcast season.

To everyone that watches, thanks for tuning in each week! We’ll be back for season #11 in November. Maybe we’ll be fortunate enough to see ANOTHER 10 years spent chasing bites all over the Midwest and Canada!

Congrats and thank you James, And the entire crew for all you do, I look forward to each and every episode. I’m sure your looking forward to a much needed break and a little r and r with the family…..

Yep, thanks for all the sacrifices you guys make. Takes a great team to do what you guys do.

10 yrs is a milestone. Congrats – and I hope you are enjoying your success and some “time off”. You earned them both!

Congrats guys! It’s been an beautiful 10 years with many life changes for all of us! Onward and Upward!!

Congrats on 10 years James! Man time flies.

I’m proud to be part of such a great team

I can’t wait for next season when I can make my Rocky 4 like comeback! I’ve already started pulling an Otter sled loaded with rocks around the yard while listening to “Eye of the Tiger”

Congrats on another great season, IDO crew. I really enjoy the episodes, especially how you take the time to go over what you’re doing and provide tips.

I’ve yet to even come close to replicating the success of James and crew but trying is half the fun!

Btw, perhaps you’ve already mentioned this, but what happened to your IDO hat, James? IDO hat, much nicer than Rapala….just sayin.

Can’t wait till November, when you come back! What are you going to do in the off season, Go Fishing? LOL. Keep up the good work!

Congrats on the 10 year mark. Another very good season, every week was interesting and informative.

See you on Pool 2?

Rapala Canada sent those out in preparation for their 80th Anniversary. So I thought it a good idea to give them some love.

Our trademark black IDO hat is back on my head full-time as of yesterday.

We’ve got more work to do over the summer than I honestly think we can handle. We’ll get to fish, of course, but for the next six months I get to do something that more closely approximates a “real job.”

And we love having you be a part of it Will. Promise me we get to shoot a couple shows together next winter, OK?

10 seasons… a long time in TV talk… a testament to the quality product being put out Lot’s of changes along the way, I remember the first shows and being all proud, hey I met/know them guys ! Keeping it real has always been a big part of the shows, that is what I think the viewers want and keeps us coming back ! Congrats James and Crew, here is to 10 more !

Congrats James to you and the crew. 10 seasons is quite an accomplishment. You should be proud. I love the show and record it every week. It is my favorite show. Always timely, informative, and professionally done. It is always cool that I actually know you and some of the crew personally. Keep them coming for another 10 years at least!

The growth of the show is quite amazing if one stops to think about it….From the first years of filming a show the season prior, only to air the following winter, to now going out and shooting a show, editing, and airing on FSN/online in really less than a week is something to be very proud of. Fun to watch and be a part of the progression.

Have made a ton of new friends, made a new career, and had some unbelievable fishing excursions because of IDO….Thanks IDO…Looking forward to continued growth!

Congrats James on 10 years. That is a milestone in the age of 1 season hit wonder shows. Your show design is above the rest in education and quality.

I cannot wait for next season.

Best fishing show on TV. Timely real time fishing tips presented in a easy to understand format. Not pushing products 100% of the time like most other shows. Thanks for putting out a show for fisher people not sponsors.

Be very proud IDO, the work you guys do behind the scenes is amazing. 10 years in the business is a fantastic accomplishment to say the least. The show is growing with every season and the camera work and editing is by far in the top 5% in outdoor shows in the country. Thank you for the hard work and passion to the sport have a great off season!
