Mike Iaconelli announced today that he's searching for guests for his Going Ike TV show.
Going Ike is a new travel-log, reality style show. Iaconelli will travel across the country with his driver, "Frank the Tank," to meet up and fish with local guests in their hometowns.
“This is such a neat concept because I’m going to get to fish with real people from all over the country," he said. "The guests will get to set the challenge for anything that swims, in either fresh or saltwater. And the best part about it is that we will be fishing as a team to accomplish our goal in a limited amount of time."
In a short 1- to 3-minute video, potential guests should explain why the Going Ike show should come fish with them on their favorite lake, river, pond, or stream. The guest should also set the challenge: Which species? How will the fish be caught? Will the fishing will take place from a boat or the bank? What's the time limit? And don't forget to provide info on what makes your fishery special.
Potential guests can submit their videos by downloading them online at www.GoingIke.com. They can also be mailed to Going Ike, P.O. Box 970, Elmer, NJ 08318.
The contest starts tomorrow (Feb. 15) and runs through June 30. Winners will be announced on July 13 at the ICAST show in Orlando, Fla.
