PITTSGROVE, N.J. — Bryan Bickell knows a thing or two about competition, pressure and the Stanley Cup, but what does he know about fishing? Mike Iaconelli finds out in his interview with Bickell on the next edition of Ike Live!, Monday, June 29, at 8 p.m. ET, live-streaming from MikeIaconelli.com.
Fresh off his third Stanley Cup win in six years, Bickell talks about his wins, what it takes to survive at that level of competition, and whether he will take the Cup fishing, as he did last year. Deemed an awesome angler by Iaconelli, Bickell fishes the Otonabee River near his home in Ontario during his off-season.
Iaconelli and his crew match their harrowing near-death stories against those of the fans during the show’s “pop-up” contest. The lucky viewer who calls, tweets or posts to Facebook the best (e.g., worst) near-death experience wins an Abu Garcia tournament jersey autographed by Iaconelli.
Other contests and giveaways are planned for less-death-defying fans who call or tweet, and a high school friend of the crew who goes by Predator Hunter online also visits.
