FLW OnDemand Video was recently renovated. For those who are familiar with FLWOutdoors.com’s sizable stable of video content, several new functions are sure to enhance your on-demand experience. For the uninitiated, you’ve just got to see the tremendous volume of video to believe it.

New and improved

As visitors access FLW OnDemand Video, the first thing they’ll see is a section hosting all the latest video uploads. So whether it’s the latest “FLW Outdoors” TV show, an angling how-to segment with a fishing pro, on-site interviews from a tournament or updates on FLW Fantasy Fishing – if it’s new, you’ll find it there.

And if you’re looking for specific video, FLW OnDemand Video now offers a search function. Simply enter key words into the search bar and click the “search” button. The results will appear below.

All of the video segments are now easier to recognize. In addition to a short text description, each video in the queue now sports a photographic thumbnail as well to aid browsing.

Another improvement involves the award-winning “FLW Outdoors” TV show seen Sundays on the VERSUS Country network. If you missed the show covering the 2009 Walmart BFL All-American, for example, or any of the other tournament programming from the last couple seasons, you’ll find it here – and now without interruption. All “FLW Outdoors” TV videos can now be watched in their entirety without having to click on multiple segments.

Visitors to the on-demand section can now comment on any video or read those left by others. If you don’t already have an online account with FLWOutdoors.com, it’s easy to set one up, free of charge, so you can interact with the FLW Outdoors community.

Here’s the big picture: All of the countless hours of FLW OnDemand Video can be viewed in full-screen mode by clicking the icon in the lower right-hand corner of the video player.

To access FLW OnDemand Video, simply click on the links provided in this article or access it from the drop-down menu under the “fishing” heading near the top of all FLWOutdoors.com home pages.
