TFF,

Today, we come to you with mixed emotions as we announce the end of an era. After the 2023 show season, Dirk will be retiring, bringing to a close the chapter of Honey Hole All Outdoors.

We want to take this moment to reflect on the incredible journey Honey Hole has taken us on since its inception. For nearly four decades, this show has been a cornerstone of the Texas fishing community, and we've been privileged to be a part of it for the past decade. We owe a profound debt of gratitude to Jerry Dean and all the passionate individuals who have been involved in the magazine and show since 1986.

A special thank you goes to Randall Boyd for his unwavering dedication in keeping the show moving forward. We appreciate him for entrusting us with the opportunity to continue this legacy.

Lastly, our heartfelt appreciation goes out to Bill and Dirk. It's hard to put into words the admiration we have for their remarkable body of work spanning over two decades. Their dedication, countless shows, and thousands of hours of content have enriched the lives of countless viewers. We all owe them a tremendous thank you.

As we move forward, we are committed to finding ways to keep the Honey Hole All Outdoors content accessible for purchase and ensuring continued access to the show. For now, we simply want to express our gratitude to all the viewers and fans who have been a part of this journey. It's been our privilege to play a small role in this incredible community.

In the coming months, we will continue to share more details about our plans for the future. We encourage you to share your memories, stories, and favorite moments from the show. Together, we can ensure that the spirit of Honey Hole lives on.

With heartfelt thanks,

Mark & Keith

Loved me some Honey Hole over the years. Ty Bill and others. Always appreciated all you shared.

Thank you for all the shows and content that you and the teams have produced. This can't be the end of this, we will need this to live on in some manner. Hopefully, the future brings more for the next generations.

We appreciate all that Honey Hole has done for the fishing community and to those around it.

Thank you all for the great shows and memories. It's a true Texas classic.

Late 80's, I'm a broke college student in Lubbock. Took my dirty clothes to a hole in wall washateria (aren't they all) and sat down for the next 1 1/2 hours to get through the cycles. The only things to do while waiting for your clothes to finish are either read a book or stare at your fellow unfortunates and I sure as heck didn't bring my college books to read. I sat down in an open seat against the wall, resigned to my torture session and there were 3 old magazines on the counter. Only magazines in the whole place....and they were Honey Holes! I would have enjoyed Readers Digest at that point but for it to be Honey Holes was a miracle. Great magazine and show over the years. Certainly turned a miserable outing into a good one for me.

Man I grew up watching this show..... It will be missed for sure!

Memories...

I didn't get to enjoy HH as long as many of you, but it did play a role in me learning my home lake. Moved to TX in 2019. When I learned of our great escape to TX becoming a reality, I started talking with folks, scouring the net for all things TX, etc. I stumbled upon Honey Hole Outdoors. I watched a few free episodes, then ordered the Ray Roberts videos. I felt like I was in the boat with Bill Wilcox. He didn't sell you on anything, was open to sharing, and seemed down right genuine.

Flash forward to 2021, I think it was just after COVID passed, and Fun N Sun had their show. I'm walking through the aisles and see an Epic Baits booth. Make my way in and who do I see? None other than Bill. I introduced myself, chatted fishing for a few, thanked him for his time. I don't think Bill met a stranger. He was the same with me as everyone else in there.

I got to go fishing with Bill and TFF Casey after winning a raffle many years back. The stories Bill shared on that day about his early days guiding on Ray Roberts were entertaining to say the least. Honey Hole with Bill and Honey Hole with Jerry Dean were always good and filled with valuable information. Best of luck to Dirk and thanks to Mark and sponsors that invested toward the continuation of the series.

Me too, got a DVR full of shows when it was on KDFI and then followed a few more years when they went off over the air tv to youtube

I ran into Jerry Dean many times at the boat ramp on Monticello in years past. He will be missed.

Bill Wilcox is a great guy and one heck of an angler. Best of luck to all the Honey Hole Crew!!

Hate to hear that

I recently found these while going through some fishing stuff

It was a great ride while it lasted. Best of luck to all the Honey Hole Crew! Thanks for the entertainment for all those years.

I enjoyed fishing the Couple of Honey Hole Top 6 tournaments that I was able to fish.

Thanks for the memories Jerry, Bill, & the Honey Hole team!
