The Urban Fisherman Posted July 29, 2010 Report Share Posted July 29, 2010 Hey gang! I haven't been out on the water "fun fishing" since hitting the bay with John F two weeks ago, BUT I have been out on the water shooting new episodes of Facts of Fishing THE SHOW. Most regulars here know that I work on the show, but what most probably don't know is that I met Dave through OFC and have T.J. and this great site to thank for my current fishing related career. Prior to taking this job I worked on high end commercials @ Technicolor in Toronto. I actually worked a few floors up from another board member ( FishnSled ) who works on movies and TV shows. This was one of my favorite moments from Season 3 and I didn't even have a rod in my hand! It's always nice being part of somebodies "personal best" moment! The weather made for tough shooting conditions but we still pulled off a good show in my mind! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Myl_KcYZVaE So, this thread came up some 4 years ago which is how I got connected with Dave, so I figured it's been long enough... What pays your bills, and funds your obsession with fishing? Cheers, Ryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnF Posted July 29, 2010 Report Share Posted July 29, 2010 I run a real estate office, teach pre-registration and Continuing Ed courses for the Ontario Association, and serve on a variety of committees within the industry. If you've used any common Ontario real estate form in the last few years there's every likelihood I had something to do with the content.

g_clot Posted July 29, 2010 Report Share Posted July 29, 2010 Statistics analyst on the Operations side of one of Canada's largest media companies. Internal stats, business processes, revenues, expenses, logistics etc..... Excel is my best friend during the day. If anyone has lots of data and needs it organized, summarized and/or presented, I'm your man. In relation to fishing - I've been thinking of building an excel based 'catch log' to summarize our most productive lures, locations, times, colours etc in a user friendly way.
