…and no, Animal Planet hasn’t turned to porn for higher ratings. The network is actually looking for the best hooker as part of their new fishing series, Top Hooker, which puts 10 of the best anglers together to see who is worthy of the title of the top hooker on the planet.
 
The 10 Top Hooker participants will use their brains, brawn and skills to try and emerge the winner of the $30,000 prize, a new truck, and the honor of being the first Top Hooker.
 
Top Hooker will premiere on June 2, 2013 at 10pm ET/PT. Reno Collier is the show’s host.
 
The Plot:
 
While each of the 10 fearless competitors have distinct skills including deep-sea fishing, bowfishing, fly fishing and surfcasting, they’ll need to widen their horizons to survive what Top Hooker throws their way. Challenges include anglers capturing fish using only their mouths, zipline fishing, catching fish nearly invisible to the naked eye, and literally walking on water while reeling in their catches.

The Top Hooker Rivals:

Attila – “Attila the Hun-garian” – Cranford, NJ
Chris – “The Laidback Hawaiian” – Kaneohe, HI
Danny – “The Bass Man” – Page, AZ
Dzifa – “Fly Boy” – Highland Ranch, CO
Greg – “Grampa Greg” – Stamford, CT
Ian – “Beefcake South African” – Trabuco Canyon, CA
Kevin – “Al-lure-ing Lawyer” – Little Compton, RI
Larysa – “Bowfishing Babe” – Sarasota, FL
Melanie – “Sexy Spearfisher” – Key Largo, FL
Patrick – “Cocky Captain” – Charleston, SC
 
Top Hooker was created by Craig Piligian and Charlie Foley.
