DAUPHIN ISLAND, Ala. — July 21, 2014 — NBC Sports has a new reality show coming up this month, and the star crew stopped by the 81st Alabama Deep Sea Fishing Rodeo to try their luck in the Gulf.
The show is "Fish Mavericks" – the boat, the Fish Circus. Led by Captain Dave Schunke, the motley crew is rounded out by brothers Jerry and Jon Harris, and brothers Rob and Chris Pami.
"I could have picked better fishermen, but I could never pick anybody I would trust more than the group that I have here," Schunke said.
"Mavericks" premiers July 30, and Schunke and his crew have been touring a wide range of waters, catching fish and shooting footage.
"We've fished everything from New Jersey shark tournaments to Virginia Beach tuna tournaments, and then all fun trips in between, from the Bahamas all the way up to Manhattan," he said.
