I'm sure that if someone took the time to tape, edit, and produce a pilot, you could send it in to a local outdoor television channel like NESN or CSN and see what happens. You have to figure, they air lots of TV shows that follow professional tournament trails like BASS, FLW, etc. Why not a series that focuses on the amatuer bass fisherman who fishes for the fun and passion of it rather than than money and the fame?
A good first step is to speak to the people who run your local citiy's Local Access TV and ask them if they could help you film, edit, and air your tape on the air(I believe I remember hearing Charlie Moore say this is how he started, the guy used to be a landscaper before he was a BASS angler and a TV personality)
I believe that as long as the show would have the potential to get and keep peoples attention and give them a reason to keep tuning in, then your have a successful idea.
