What’s your favorite TV fishing ad?


FishTracker

Recommended Posts

With almost everybody’s boat stored for the winter except for the die-hards, and everyone just waiting for the ice to form…. I was wondering what’s your favorite tv fishing commercial?

My favorite is the Rapala Fisherman’s Prayer.

“The Fisherman’s Prayer”

“Oh Lord…There he is…It feels like a big one…Please don’t let me lose him…I’ve never caught one this big before. I’ll try not to horse him, and if I land him, I promise to release him…and make a graphite replica if my wife says it’s ok. Thank you for the Rapalas…Amen.”

I like Rapala's christmas commercial. The bass driven the TA staopping at the lakeshore and jumping in.

I love rapala Xraps so ofcourse I like the comercials. CHEWA-CHEWA-CHEWA-CHEWA, their not funny or anything. But my freinds and I always imitate the sound when we use them, and it makes for a good laugh.

Just when you thought you've heard every topic on here, "whats your favorite ad" comes up. I Love FM.

When I was young I used to love those Blue Fox commercials. They were the ones that had the Lure taunting the bass in the water until the bass hit it. I pestered my dad for a long time before he finally got me one and it was the only thing I would fish with.

I like the old MinnKota (or was it MotorGuide) when "Grandpa" gets his new fishing buddy, "Get in the boat Bobby..."

The best is the one where 2 guys are fishing a long time and one casts his arm right off into the water. I think it was for a line, I could be wrong

I thought we had talked about this before.

None the less, my favorite is the Mercury Outboard motor commercial. Where the 2 guys are driving around and then the drivers clothes rip off because they are going so fast. Hillarious!!

Hey Capt'n, that commercial was the Evinrude E-Tec...and it was a funny one at that.

My ultimate favorite was the Evinrude commercial where the E-Tec dealers were kicking the owners of other new outboards in the privates. laugh.gif

I preffer the one with the guys getting kicked in the groin as well. But my absolute favorite is the Rapala commercial.

"Lord, they're he is. I think he is a big one. I promise not to horse him; and if I land him, I promise to release him and have a fiberglass replica made; if my wife will let me. Oh, and thanks for the Rapalas. Amen"

Lots of good ones but I gotta go with the Storm commercial where the guy gets the 500lb bass on which jumps and then he yells,"Get the net", sweaty face and all. Classic.

Mine was a stren commercial:

Doctor and two nurses are in surgury. They are just finishing up, doing the stitches with monofilament line. Dr. finishes up, they turn away and the nurse says, "Nice work doctor." Then, in the background you hear "Twing"...Twing Twing... and a heart come flying out of the patient.

Next time, better use stren.

How about the old Trilene Commercials with Al Lindner. In the tree trunks, gets caught up, leans on a dead deadfall, it breaks, he goes in.

The "Rapala Fisherman's Prayer"

Also Rapala Skitter Pop Commercial that starts out with the really happy song as the lure works the water (Howdy-do, it's a great day we're seeing...howdy-do it's a great day for bein' Howdy-do it's a...) and then the water erupts and the lure vanishes in dramatic music. LOL!

I saw one this weekend that cracked me up and creeped me out at the same time. I wish I could remeber what the ad was for.

Ayhoo, this guy is going to give a bass a kiss before he releases it. In super slow motion, their lips meet. It is in super slow motion, so the way it is filmed, it is almost erotic looking. Their lips slowly meet, and they kiss long enough for the viewer to be a tad uncomfortable. When they begin to pull away, a bit of fish slime connects them as they part, finally breaking.

Odd, but I was laughing pretty hard.

Definitely the E-tec ad. I laugh every time!

I like the rapala prayer commercial too though.

I saw a new Rapala commercial this weekend that was pretty good. You see a scene of a float plane going over Canadian waters and all of a sudden you see a guy fall out of the plane and into the water. Next you hear, "Don't be the guy who forgets the Rapala's".

I love the Wisconsin Cheese ad, where the fish swims up with a plate of cheese, puts it on the ice in front of an ice fisherman, and the final scene shows the fish with a rod and reel, fighting the big one! laugh.gif

      Heading up to LV a week from today with the kids. Any advice for us? Staying on the West side but open to traveling if the weather permits.   The way the last few weeks have gone, might stay for good!!!

      Do have Wi-Fi in your house. Your going to need that to work with any of the cameras that send a signal and video to your phone.  Hardwire is the best but battery power workers well for about two months then you have to pull them and recharge them.  It is nice to sit on a beach in Key West and keep an eye on your house when gone! 👌

      SO.......you dont think the BEWARE OF WIFE sign is sufficient???? 😂😄   seriously.......i'm no help!!!!

      With all the craziness in the world I’m looking at getting an outdoor security camera setup for my home. Anyone have ideas on what works well without a huge cost  and easy to do . Or is it better to go with a company to set it up.  We have recently had copper thefts in the area at farmers fields and bin sites and I know it will only gat worse as these things always do. I probably want something that hooks up to my phone as well and wondering if there is a good one with either battery life or if wired is better. Any thoughts are welcome.

      Aren't they the ones that ran into problems about illegal bait? Anyone know how that turned out?

      You launch on Moose Lake to get to the motorized portage. It's called Prairie portage. To get to the portage you put in at Moose Lake. From Moose you go into Newfound Lake. From Newfound you go into Sucker Lake. On Sucker is where Prairie portage is. There is a dock on the American side and on the Canadian side there is big sign welcoming you to Canada. Latourell's Resort runs the portage and the cost for the portage is $40 for a round trip.

      Will that blond haired kid have that cool little orange boat in the show this weekend? Saw him driving around by Muskego Point a few times this summer.

      Hey  stranger!!👌

      Nope, there are parts of Basswood that allow motors.   Entry is from Fall Lake, and there is (I think) a motorized portage.   It is really popular in the spring...
