sonny Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 Hey guys,,,i know it may not be a big deal but just wondering if peoples opinion's were the same as mine,,, You see this is my delema,,,i pay for wfn, as do most(not sure of the satalite people)...Do they really need to sell half hour air time spots to subsidize the network.... Personally i hate to have to pay to watch a commercial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassslinger Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 I agree. It is frustrating when you get the time to sit down to watch a fishin show and that crap is on. Who wants to watch that?. Expecially after paying for the service. There is simply just barely enough on WFN to keep people paying. Leafs TV isn't much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GbayGiant Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 WFN is better than most stations but it's getting to the point where TV/Satellite should be free anyway, if you look back over time all that's happened is more commercials and a bigger bill for subscribers. And who actually watches commercials anyway ? I always surf at the first sign of a commercial, but chances are you flip to another channel and it's on a commercial as well.

Beats Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 I sat there one day and counted the number of times they said "puff" during the Pancake Puff infomercial. It's ridiculous. While this doesn't say much for me, it certainly shows what WFN is subjecting their subscribers to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleM Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 Do you guys get WILD aswell? Thats even worse than WFN. Leafs TV......thats the biggest rip-off going. What do they have on there thats worth watching? This is not a poke at leaf fans, Im just saying that station is crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TroutnMuskieHunter Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 I guess I can't really comment too much as I've only ever seen an hour of WFN while visiting my son and it was enough to last me a long time!!!!..Don't really have time to watch TV at home as all my spare time is used to go fishin' instead of sittin' and watchin someone else catch fish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallyboss Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 I agree with the Leafs Tv channel. I keep trying to see coverage "in color" of the last time they won the Cup and it seems to be unavailable!!! HIHIHI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cranks bait Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 I too was getting disgruntled at the advertising comercials, because I am paying for this channel. Then I realized, I also pay for all the other channels and they are a lot worse. It's just the case that this is the newest one for me and the one that interests me (next to discovery). It does suck, but it could also be worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ten Super Hooks for nineteen ninety nine, NO, but right now with this special offer we'll double it. WOW!! Now you get twenty hooks for the unbelievably low price of just nineteen ninety nine.

It has amazing strength.You can repair your wall,seal your leaky drain, cracks in your fine china or even fix a hole in the gas tank or oil pan of your car. That's a fourty nine ninety value by itself, but you get it free today only. Shipping and handling charges extra. What a great buy ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lunkerbasshunter Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 if i see the line dancer one more time im going ot go freakin crazy. As for leafs tv? If you are a leaf fan the pre and post game shows are pretty good and the 20 games they carried this year makes it worth while for me to get. Cheers!

gbalardo Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 I don't mind paying the $3.oo because wfn puts a lot back into the industry, tournaments, sponsors ect. tight lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
napjohn8 Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 i have the star choice dish and let me say the outdoor channel and versus network kill WFN. I am a fan of WFN but its all bass fishing, outdoor channel does every type of fishing with no informericals and has hunting on the channel as well. Great show fishing with roland martin.

fishinggeek Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 I have to admit it's one of my favourite channels, but yes it has gone downhill. A lot of shows that are irrelevant for me and probably a lot of other OFC people too. If it goes downhill more or they raise the price, I might be bailing out.

lew Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 I think the nice thing about WFN is the fairly large choice of different types of fishing that are available to everyone with different interests. Myself, I don't have any interest in what the fishing is like in Australia or who wins the English Carp tourneys, and I don't fish for bass and have certainly seen enough of the bass tourneys, but I still find plenty to watch. I still enjoy the Izumi show even after all these years, there's a few good musky shows available and of course everyone enjoys the Lindners. I'd think everyone that enjoys fishing should be able to find something that appeals to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbayboy Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 Lew hit it on the head. Yeah the ads are annoying and not all the shows are really all that interesting but it's $2 a month - I spend more than that before I even get into the office every day. Heck, I'd pay $2 a month just for Lindners OR mercer OR The next bite OR ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moemoe Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 Some of the infomarcials are annoying but beats having to wait till saturday morning to catch some fishing shows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rattletrap2 Posted April 18, 2008 Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 I wrote to WFN complaining about the infomercials (stupid Line Dancer!) and they wrote back saying that they had to do it to stay on the air. I asked to at least have them show them at 4 am, not during prime time on the week-ends. Sad when you actually pay for this crap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
