I remember watching you fish and watching Dale race with my dad when I was a kid. Great memories of a more simple time and I wouldn’t trade them for anything.

Use to watch these shows with my dad and grandpa back in the day so it definitely brings back some memories. My dad and grandpa was big time bass fisherman and taught me so much over the years. I always loved it when we take out the boat and I would just break off and do my own thing without instruction and catch 10 times more fish and my grandpa would be like what you doing how you working that lure lol. Good times

My wife and I got to chat with Hank a long time ago at Bass Pro in Atlanta not to long after Dale died. He was and still is one of our favorite humans. It's really nice when you admire someone and get to meet them, and they are exactly the person you thought they would be. Lifelong fan!

Thanks hank I can't stop smiling 2 of the greatest pros to ever drive a race car or a ranger boat

Man that’s the way all tournaments should be done today, weigh em take a pic release it. Ol dale was such a cool guy

Watched every week back then, loved seeing this now.

Man this brings me back to my youth watching this. The night fishing episode was one I really remember! Thanks for posting this!

Hank Parker’s interview on the Dale Jr Download is really good.

Wow, cool footage of Dale and Hank!

I’ve been a fan of Hank Parker for a long time now, and I know that I’m not alone. We’re all fans of his because of his authentic love of the outdoors, and it comes through in everything he does. I really enjoy the episodes of Hank Parker’s Outdoor Magazine, and I’d love to see some more of them, especially from his third season. Season 3 was in 1987, and I was really getting into fishing at that time. I remember watching those episodes religiously and taking notes on the tips and tricks that Hank was showing. I still use some of the techniques that I learned from him back then! Hank, it would be really great if you could upload those episodes from Season 3. I think it would be great for your fans, as well as for a new generation of anglers.👍

Man, this took me back to Saturday mornings growing up! Ole hank you taught me a lot.

Thanks. That's just Awesome

It’s a 1986 episode of Hank Parker's Outdoor Magazine, which is the last episode of Season 2. Professional race car driver Dale Earnhardt teams up with host Hank Parker for a charity tournament on Lake Norman in North Carolina. This is a fun and special episode. Hank also fishes one of his most underwater structures. The bloopers and outtakes at the end are hilarious. You've never seen these before. There is also some great footage of the natural beauty in America's wilderness. This episode is a real treat. I enjoyed it from start to finish. This is the last episode of “Hank Parker’s Outdoor Magazine” featuring “Chunkin’ and Windin’” as Hank’s original theme song. Unfortunately, copyright issues have made it impossible for Hank to use the song in future episodes. This makes this episode all the more precious. I’m glad I’m able to revisit it, and I’m sure I’ll enjoy all the episodes with the new theme song, too. I just wanted to appreciate this moment.👍

Man, where have all the years gone!? I'm the same age as Hank and watching this brought back so many good memories.

Love the old episodes!! Brings back so many good memories!! Bonus are the old commercials!! Boy, we’ve come a long way in fishing equipment, haven’t we?!?!

Man that was back in the day pure 80's had a good one 👍

Thanks Hank!! That took me back to a special time when my Dad and I would get together and watch your shows. Precious memories!!!

It brings back good old memories I had the exact same ranger 350 Comanche with a GT 150 Johnson on it by brand new at greens outboard Spindale North Carolina in 1986 those were the good old days back thin

I love these nostalgic fishing videos .The same with the original BASSMASTERS T.V.Series 😉🤠

Dale probably knew lake Norman like the back of his hand!! Two legendary outdoorsmen

I can't believe Dale didn't cheat up them scales

2 of my childhood heros.

That’s too cool 😎

I'm 61 and liked watching the Bass Pro tournaments, Not so much these days. And yes, I'm a huge Nascar fan Davey Allison was my fav. now its Blaney

Please, send me back to 85’…

What would you say would be the single biggest change or improvement in fishing equipment from then till now? Graphite Fishing Rods? Bait Casting reels? Fishing line such as super braid and fluorocarbon? Or better and more numerous lure/bait choices? I'll leave the sonar technology out of it this time.

9:37 I believe he's from the Stroker Ace movie.Makes jewelry out of manure 😂

Will you ever ship your spinner bait to Canada?

I am so proud I was alive and enjoyed back when life was SO good back then!! Unlike today’s BS!! #FJB 🖕

Where's the bloopers

9:37 Stroker Ace actor 😅 ,manure jewelry maker😅

I just saw a show you said need forward sonar because of pressure? Huh? Wat?, that crap will increase pressure by far and make all the lakes worse,the pros are saying so, but if your sponsored by them guess that's what you'd say,that sonar is ridiculous and takes skill out,hope it's banned

This is very old
