Outdoor Sportsman Group Presents Outdoor Channel’s ‘Wednesday Night Magazines’ Block

DENVER (April 2, 2026) - Outdoor Channel invites viewers to dive into Outdoor Sportsman Group's storied magazine-branded programs during the "Wednesday Night Magazines" block. Airing from 5-11:00 p.m. ET, this must-see lineup promises the best hunting, fishing and shooting tips, as well as plenty of hunting adventure, angling action, and the latest in guns and gear.

Iconic brands in the "Wednesday Night Magazines" block include:

In-Fisherman TV - 5:30 p.m. ET: Hosted by Hall of Fame Angler and In-Fisherman Editor in Chief Doug Stange, this award-winning show has been one of the most watched outdoor programs over the past 40+ years. Modeled after the widely popular magazine, which focuses on the pursuit of everything that swims in freshwater and near-shore coastal waters, with core species being bass, walleyes, pike, muskies, catfish, panfish, trout and salmon. The In-Fisherman teams also fishes carp, gar, sturgeon, redfish, tarpon and stripers. In the first episode of this month, "Prime Time Predators on the Prowl," the staff explores predator-prey relationships, fishing for smallmouth bass targeting gobies on the Door County waters of Lake Michigan; for big river shad chasing blue catfish; and even "knocking" on woody panfish lairs to catch largemouth bass.

North American Whitetail TV - 6:00 and 10:00 p.m. ET: Join the NAW Team of Haynes Shelton, Gordon Whittington, Blake Garlock, Pat Hogan and longtime Contributors Dr. James Kroll, Stan Potts, and more for hunting adventures you won't want to miss. While the team is laser focused on the pursuit of mature whitetail bucks, occasionally there's a need to hunt other critters for management purposes, and in the first episode of the month, "South Georgia Pig Pickin'," Pat Hogan preys on feral hogs under the cover of darkness, Gordon Whittington gets technical with a crossbow, and Dr. James Kroll explores the challenge of managing industrial timberland in the South.

In the first episode this month, "Turkey Men," three generations of Wells men head to the prairie shelterbelts of Central Kansas in search of longbeards, while in other turkey hunting action a young essay contest winner takes their first bird in Wyoming. In "Moment of Truth," Curt Wells reveals best rangefinder practices.
