Rather announced that the upcoming season of Pro Team Journal will air on Outdoor Channel and World Fishing Network. For the first time since 2019, the show's 13 episodes will be back on Outdoor Channel, bringing to outdoor network television some of the country’s finest anglers revealing what makes them successful on and off the water.
“We could not be more thrilled about the upcoming season of the Journal,” said Rather Outdoors CEO Ken Eubanks. “Nearly 20 years ago, we set out with one crew member and a handful of pro anglers to put together programming that would blend entertainment and the content to educate sportsmen. Two decades later, the crew is bigger, and the fishing can be tougher, but the vision is the same. We are still driving to make our viewers better anglers.”
“We believe this is an important moment for our sport,” said Mike Carney of Outdoor Sportsmen Group, parent company of Outdoor Channel. “When I watch this programming, I want to feel like I am out there on the water with these anglers, and I want them to help me improve when I am out doing what I love. I believe the crew and these talented anglers nailed it with these episodes.”
A number of additional programming expansions are included in the partnership. These include:
> Pro Team Journal will include 13 new episodes that will air for 26 weeks on Outdoor Channel from January to June and 26 weeks on World Fishing Network from July to December.
> New seasons of Pro Team Journal and Kings of Bass will stream on My Outdoor TV starting in April 2023.
> New seasons of Pro Team Journal will also be available on the KoBTV YouTube Channel starting in April 2023.
Each episode will reveal how our pros pick apart a fishing spot, choose the approach and develop a pattern.
