Cudz Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 Does Lindner use some kind of a convex lens on his cameras because every fish on that show seems to be huge. Maybe it is just the way they hold the fish but I am always amazed at the size of the fish. They are good fishermen and it doesn't hurt having God on your side but seriously they seem to catch big fish all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 That's what happens when you're fishing 300 days out of the year for 30 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holdfast Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 Yup, as far as I can remember he pioneered the stretched camera optical illusions. Most shows do it and you'll even see it here with the pics. That's why I always use either a Reel or something to give the size some relativity as I don't weigh them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greencoachdog Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 Could a guide and editing 80 hrs of fishing into a 20 minute show have anything to do with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Pike Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 All that aside, it is my favorite fishin' show! "I don't care what bady of wada you're fishin' an." lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Urban Fisherman Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 Could a guide and editing 80 hrs of fishing into a 20 minute show have anything to do with it? well if it takes somebody like Linder 80 hours to shoot a show then they're doing something wrong because our average shoots are 2 to 5 hours with the odd day that goes sun - up to sun - down on a tough bite.... and if you do the math on a 13 episode shoot it'd take 130 days to shoot a season's worth of shows...which wouldn't be very cost effective at all! lol Being an editor myself, I sure wouldn't want to sift through 160hrs (2 camera angles) of footage for each episode. I doubt I'd have time to finish editing a season in time! I'm just buggin' ya GCD - but either way, there's no denying that Linder know's his stuff, his show is of top notch production quality, as it should be with as many years that he's been in production, and I'm sure if we did a poll on OFC his show would be right up there in the rankings....

forrest Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 (edited) ... but how do they go from a blue shirt and khaki pants before the commercial and green shirt and blue jeans after the commercial... do they change in the boat??? I guess I have not seen as many different shows or maybe those are the olde tyme shows where the camera was not on for the full 12 hours of the day. From the few I have seen most are shot over a 1 day period or they explain that they are shooting over X number of days. Speaking of Olde Tyme shows...just how old are you GCD?...are you refferring to Red Fisher? forrest Edited December 17, 2008 by forrest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greencoachdog Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 My birth date is in my profile forrest.... I've seen this on several different shows, they bank on people not remembering after their mind has been polluted with the fishing propaganda that supports these shows. Make a mental note of the attire the next time you watch any fishin' show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenhawk Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 GCD is right.....but then again the good shows will explain that they are filming over a number of days.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Urban Fisherman Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 I watch WFN alot, and I honestly can't name a recently made, credible show, that has done that without mentioning somewhere that it's a different day of fishing, and usually a different species...

Grimace Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 (edited) Al is the man. If anyone can outfish him and put on a show, go ahead. I am not a fan of his god stuff but that doesn't matter. He is a legend. I don't like it when people sit back on there couch and cut up the people who are out there doing it. Al has put a great show together for decades and now most recently with this one. He started in fisherman and has carved out a great living and quite a little legacy out of doing something that we all love. I am pretty sure if ya went up to lake of the woods with Al Lindner, Doug Stange, Gord Pyzer and Dick Pearson for a fishing trip those boys wouldn't have to change there clothes too often between fish.

Roger_Dodger Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 when you have the time & resources that they do, your gonna catch lots of quality fish not trying to derail this thread, but i have no probelm at all with Al taking 20 seconds or so to share his faith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlowPoke Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 ...i have no probelm at all with Al taking 20 seconds or so to share his faith Agree. I'm not a religious person but I don't tune out at that portion of the show. It's very tastefully done, well thought out and performed with good intentions. I don't know why anyone would be offended by it. In my opinion, one of the best fishing shows on air - and it should be given their budget! Here's the camera and crew... The camera boat... And the underwater team... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
