ROCKLIN Ca - The Future Pro Tour's season opener held March 24th on Lake Berryessa will air this Saturday, April 14th on Comcast Sports Net the Sacramento and Bay area's superstation for sports and the broadcast home of the Sacramento Kings!

Tune into Comcast Sports Net this Saturday at 10:00am to see all the action and see the best amateur anglers in the west get down to business, as they battle it out for a spot in the 2007 Future Pro Tour Classic, it's coveted crown, and the keys to a new Ranger 188vs with Evinrude E-Tec outboard!

This season's opener caught on film, is action packed and will feature many, many "money shots" of anglers bringing in the big ones, including pictures of the tournament record setting 14.89 pound big fish that fell to Jason Milligan's swimbait! Hilarious outtakes, pro-pointers, "Winner's Spotlight" and more are on tap for those that tune, in so be sure get up, get your coffee, and get ready for all the action!

And don't forget.....the 2nd event of the season for the Northern region is this Saturday, at Lake Shasta. Ranger Pros, Bill "Mr. Shasta" Townsend, national champion Russ Meyer, and FLW touring pro Charley Almassey will be on hand giving one-on-on instruction this Friday at the FREE all you-can-eat BBQ that will be held Phil's Prop and Tackle with follow-up seminars a the West Marine store in Redding.

It's not too late to get in on all the fun, as we will take sign ups at the BBQ, seminars, and take late signups the morning of the event from 4-6am at Phil's Prop and Tackle.

See you all there!

Why would you broadcast this Vince while we are going to be fishing?

Is there going to be a re-air.

i'm sure vince would have aired it while you guys weren't fishing if he had the chance to.

the important thing is that it is going to be aired on cable tv for everybody to see that wasn't there in person.

put a vhs in and record it

It wouldn't surprise me at all if Comcast calls the shot on the airing time...

Comcast likes to air fishing shows on Sat.

What would we ever do without TiVo.

Will have to set the recorder.

Thanks Vince

As you may have guessed, during the spring, a station as big as ComCast Sports Net has a packed scheduled, with college basketball and baseball being in full swing. We were very fortunate to get the date and time we did from Comcast, as they actually did us a huge favor in making this prime time slot available to us. We did not want the airing of the program to go too far past the date of the event.

Someday, perhaps when we will get a budget as big as B.A.S.S and FLW's, we will be able to completely call the shots as to when our shows will air. The show will re-air several times over the next few weeks so those that miss it will get a chance to see it again.

I went to Tivo and Sat at 10am shows HuntFishCook. Is this the program FPT is going to be on?
