The VanDam Experience is now playing on The Outdoor Channel
KALAMAZOO, Mich. (March 14, 2024) – Kevin VanDam, the most accomplished professional bass angler in history, will be sharing his extensive outdoor experience with viewers across the world with his new show, The VanDam Experience, which is playing all of 2025 exclusively on Outdoor Channel. Check cable or streaming platform listings.
VanDam’s sensational success across multiple bass shing tours over 33 years of competition is unprecedented. His accolades include seven Bassmaster Angler of the Year titles, four Bassmaster Classic wins, one FLW Tour Angler of the Year and 29 national tour wins.
VanDam has also been inducted into the Bass Fishing Hall of Fame, the IGFA Hall of Fame, the Freshwater Fishing Hall of Fame, and the Legends of the Outdoors Hall of Fame.
“It’s time to start the next chapter of my career,” VanDam said. “With that, I’m excited to announce that The VanDam Experience will debut on the Outdoor Channel in January of 2025 with 13 original episodes.”
Since retiring from full-time competitive fishing in September of 2023, VanDam and his team have been busy building VANDAM OUTDOORS productions, which will produce The VanDam Experience as well as a host of other fishing and outdoor content for social media and YouTube.
“The idea is to have control over the creation and content of the shows so I can bring the best information and entertainment to fans everywhere,” he added. “I have been planning to produce a fishing show for a long time and now is the time to do it. I have plenty of engaging content to share with fishing fans and those who love the great outdoors.”
Given VanDam’s deep well-touring experience and long-standing relationships with high-profile personalities and
celebrities, he wants the shows to be both fun and educational.
He has shed many of the country’s greatest lakes, reservoirs, and rivers across 48 states. The VanDam Experience will give viewers a, “then and now,” perspective of each location.
“I’ll travel back to some of the iconic waters I have shed in the past,” he detailed. “We’ll take a look at how these fisheries have changed over the years and demonstrate better ways to sh them with the newest innovations in tackle and technology.”
