Glen Pla, Average Angler

Glen Pla, a third generation-Florida native, has always been an avid outdoorsman and an aquatic junkie.

At Bright House Sports Network, he has turned his lifetime love of fishing into programming the whole family can enjoy. A Florida State University alumnus, Glen honed his comedic skills in the theater department and in the early '90s made the move from his home in Tallahassee to Tampa to pursue his long-time desire to combine drama, comedy and adventure into one entertaining and informative show.

A winner of 17 film-making awards, including four nationals while teaching at Ruth Eckerd Hall, Glen has brought that experience to the Average Angler Adventures, a show that combines comedy and fishing in the vein of Wild Kingdom and Gilligan's Island. The latest episode can be seen every Sunday at 7:00 p.m.  You can also get a daily fishing report for all of the best spots in Tampa Bay and Central Florida, each morning on BHSN's Fishing Page.

"Life has been enriching and rewarding to me thus far but none so much as the arrival of son Raja," said Glen. "He is one of the big reasons why I'm committed to good, clean, creative family programming here at Bright House Sports Network."
