If you are one of those people that feel fishing is a religion then you are bound to get hooked on Hook.tv (I couldn’t resist the pun).

Hook.tv is brand new fly-fishing online TV channel with a solid community built around it. Hook.tv intends to cater for the 18 million fly-fishing enthusiasts out there.

The CEO of Hook.tv was actually in the fly fishing scenes of the film  A River Runs Through It which starred Brad Pitt.
