Default Where's the fly fising shows?

Now that I'm committing to 5-6 knots per line and "presentation" instead of
just shotgunning plugs in every direction, where's all the fly fishing
programs? I gleefully scan all the outdoor cable channels expecting to see
FF'ing shows aplenty, but nada. Nothing but bait casters and lure *******
for hours on end. What's the problem? Not enough sponsors to support this
sport? Judging by its prices, Orvis could sponsor a show all by itself.

So far, I've had to depend on an ancient vhs tape from LLBean (pretty good)
and the memory of a FF DVD I viewed about 6 yrs ago (excellent), which in
both cases I checked out from the library. Bass fishermen get to view cable
programs showing every thing but a bass taking a dump in slo-mo by
underwater cameras, as if the producers live in the lake 24/7. I can't even
find a FF show with annoying advertisments for equipment. What's up? There
has to be at least one? If so, when and where?
