Outdoor Channel's 'Fishing University' Coming to Texarkana

Do you like to fish? Or maybe you just want to learn more tips and techniques on how to catch the big one. Then you are going to love this! The Outdoor Channel is coming to Texarkana.Charlie Ingram and Ray Brazier are proud to bring you another fun season of Fishing University, America's original "How To" fishing program. This year is an exciting mix of shows and once again we are using our boat against boat-team competition. Charlie and Ray will each be teamed with a company representative from one of our show sponsors and will square off each week in a tournament like format.

Not only is this exciting to watch them battle it out, but you'll be receiving information about tricks of the trade from four people who are some of the best in the industry. To add an additional spin, the fishermen are given the same small arsenal of tackle. They have two identical tackle boxes filled with lures of different colors and possibly different sizes. The only catch is that they can only use what is in the box. So no tricks up anyone’s sleeves, just pure talent mixed with a little luck.

They have had a great time filming and going all over the country to bring you the best of many different fishing situations. These two master fishermen will be in Texarkana on Thursday, October 24 at Spring Lake Park from (6:00 - 7 p.m.) The Outdoor Channel will be here as well to film a segment for their show "Fishing University". Meet and Greet Fishing Pro’s Charlie Ingram, Ray Brazier and Chris Lane winner of the 2012 Bassmaster Classic held in Shreveport - Bossier City, LA.

This season, they also try their hand at fishing from kayaks on the river. Tune in to see who, if anyone, wound up in the water!
