Hook, Line and Sinker (TV program): The PROD that I proposed, was removed by @ Necrothesp , who said that deletion of a programme that's run for 22 seasons is hardly uncontroversial.  I hope that someone adds additional references about Hook, Line and Sinker to the article.

The article notes: "Popular television co-hosts Nick Duigan and Andrew Hart fell for the Town of 1770 and its offshore reefs, as their TV show suggests; Hook, Line and Sinker . ... Hook, Line and Sinker has become one of Australia's most popular fishing shows, with a bit of lifestyle and cooking mixed in with an irreverent blend of humour setting it apart from some of the more traditional programs. What comes through in the series is the boys love of fishing and all things boating, with a couple of twists that include; beefing up an old Bertram (boat) with a huge new 350hp outboard, catching fish using a remote controlled model boat, using Andrew as a live lure as he water skis behind the boat and entering an all-female fishing contest dressed in drag - until organisers twigged and they were booted out."

While not always madcap, the antics of Hart and Duigan are often more about good humour than good fishing, but it is a style that is winning over viewers as an alternative to the super-slick, highly produced interstate fishing shows that produce a steady stream of fish. Catching a fish for the Hook, Line and Sinker crew, while always the aim, sometimes doesn't happen. ...  It is a recipe that has helped the show go from strength to strength since Hart and Duigan filmed two pilot shows in 2001."  There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow Hook, Line and Sinker to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline , which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".
