Bill Dance Outdoors is a fishing television series hosted by retired professional tournament angler Bill Dance. Each episode focuses on various aspects of recreational fishing techniques, usually targeting black bass species such as Largemouth and Smallmouth bass, though does occasionally focus on other species such as Channel catfish and Bluegill. Each episode is about half an hour long, and will occasionally include viewer mail, product advertisement, and tips & tricks segments along with the primary topic of the particular episode. The series was on The Nashville Network, then moved to the Outdoor Life Network (now known as 'Versus') after TNN became Spike TV. The show has also featured guest appearances by celebrities such as Terry Bradshaw, Hank Williams, Jr., Mel Tillis, Jerry Reed, and many others. The show has also produced four blooper videos showing outtakes and mishaps during filming of the show and related commercials, as well as the hijinks of some of Bill's friends, guests, film crew, and family members, which have been broadcast in several bloopers and outtakes television shows overseas.
