Buccaneers & Bones is a series produced by MyOutdoorTV that captures the essence of fly fishing in a unique way. Hosted by actor Tom Brokaw and a group of seasoned fly fishermen, the show brings together renowned and not so well-known personalities to a remote location in Wyoming where they embark on a fly fishing adventure.

Throughout the series, the group of anglers explore the many different streams, rivers, and lakes in search of the elusive trout. The show is not just about fishing though, as it delves into the histories and personal stories of all those involved. The camaraderie amongst the group is exquisitely captured as they share their love of fly fishing, swap stories, catch up on their lives, and reflect on the life lessons that fly fishing has taught them.

The show is not all about experts and seasoned anglers, though. One of the unique things about Buccaneers & Bones is that it features segments with people who are new to fly fishing. These episodes are especially heartwarming as it is a joy to see the excitement and wonder in the eyes of someone who has never caught a fish before, let alone one on a fly.

One of the highlights of the show is the location; the breathtaking scenery of Wyoming provides the perfect backdrop to the angler's quest. The rivers and mountains of Wyoming are a fly fisherman's paradise. The landscapes - from the rugged mountain ridges to the crystal-clear waterways, all add to the mystique of the show, as well as adding context to the history of the pioneers who first explored this part of the world.

Viewers can expect close-ups of the flies the fishermen use, as well as a rundown of the different types of gear that are used to effectively catch different types of fish. The host, Tom Brokaw, provides an engaging narrative throughout each episode. He narrates the history of the region, the rivers and streams and adds context to the importance of preserving those treasures.

As well as the fishing, the show also highlights the importance of conservation. The host and all the guests are committed to ensuring that these bodies of water and the fish that call them home are protected and managed for future generations to enjoy. It is vital to protect and nurture the delicate ecosystems that are found in these remote locations.

In summary, Buccaneers & Bones is a joy to watch, as it captivates viewers through the adventures of a group of fly-fishing enthusiasts as they pursue their passion in some of the most inviting locations in the US. The show is engaging and informative, with a deep appreciation and understanding of fly-fishing history, techniques, preparation and gear. Buccaneers & Bones is a complex and heart-warming narrative that immerses the viewer into the world of fly fishing and the friendships forged over a shared passion. The show is perfect for those who want to escape to the great outdoors, enjoy the beauty of fishing, outdoor adventures and the camaraderie of fishing buddies.
