For those of you who don't know just exactly how the wonderful world of television typically works, here's the deal. We produced and aired thirteen episodes of "The Fish Fishburne Show" for the first season, which began in late December.
Now it's time to join Fish as he embarks on a totally different project for the upcoming quarter.The new series is called "Ultimate Match Fishing All-Stars." This format takes (12) of the best Ultimate Match Fishing competitors from previous seasons and matches them against fan favorites on Tennessee's Pickwick Lake. There they will battle head-to-head for $50,000 and the coveted UMF All-Star Title. It's competition like you've never seen and Fish will co-host with long time friend Joe Thomas.

Fish Fishburne is an entertainer first and foremost. His off-beat escapades on & off the water are indicative of his zeal for the outdoors and a commitment to share that enthusiasm with everyone he meets. Fish has enjoyed a colorful career encompassing an impressive twelve-years as a B.A.S.S. angler, two-time tournament champion and four-time Classic participant.
He gained further national celebrity in a seven year run as host of “ESPN’s BassMasters”, host of “ESPN Outdoors”, popular emcee and star of TNN’s “Go Fish” television series. With the show’s inventive production style and Fish’s antics compared to those of Jim Carrey & Robin Williams, TV Guide Magazine was fast to name “Go Fish” among its top 10 Picks for Kids’ Programming in 1996… no small accomplishment with competing programs offered up by ABC, CBS, HBO, FOX, PBS, Nickelodeon and Steven Spielberg’s Amblin Entertainment.
Fish now makes his home in Knoxville, TN with his (two) cats.
