(New York, New York, April 30, 2013) - Extreme angling isn't exactly new to Animal Planet. Jeremy Wade has hunted underwater legends in RIVER MONSTERS for five seasons; OFF THE HOOK: EXTREME CATCHES explores outrageous angling escapades with Showtime Eric Young; and the men of HILLBILLY HANDFISHIN' have captured catfish and viewers' hearts far and wide. But TOP HOOKER brings an all-new dynamic to Animal Planet when 10 of the world's top anglers are pitted against one another for a series of wildly out-of-the-box fishing challenges that will put their brains, brawn and skills to the ultimate test. They're putting it all on the line for the chance to win $30,000, a new truck, and the honor of being crowned Animal Planet's first TOP HOOKER. See them work their reels when the eight-part series TOP HOOKER, hosted by Reno Collier, premieres on Sunday, June 2, at 10PM (ET/PT).
