WPBS-DT has begun showing a 13-part series called “Fishing Behind the Lines with Don Meissner” Monday nights at 7:30 p.m.
In each episode soldiers share their experiences in the military while fishing is introduced as a natural way to relieve stress.
The series invokes the soldier’s story, their lives serving in the military, the effect on their families and their overall life experiences.
“This series means more than fishing and celebrating our region. It really gets down to highlighting the most basic forms of humanity and how we connect to people through recreation. This program will reduce prejudices and build bridges with our military community,” said Meissner.
A repeat of the series will be offered on WPBS-DT Saturday mornings at 9 a.m. beginning June 15.
Each episode will also be available online one week after each original episode at watch.wpbstv.org.
For more information about the series, including episode descriptions, visit wpbstv.org/fishingbehindthelines.
