Nine out to hook sports viewers

CHANNEL Nine has launched a new series called Fishing Western Australia which it has created to fit with its cricket telecasts during the summer.

Hosted by Nine’s sport and Just Add Water presenter Michael Thomson, the 13-episode series was launched at the weekend.

Nine program manager Ric Bryndzej said the series had been put together by a freelance crew but the post-production had been completed in-house to ensure the shows were exactly what the station wanted.
