Pursuit Channel Celebrates Long Standing Partnership with Careco

Glenwood, AL – Pursuit Channel, the leading network for hunting, fishing, shooting, and outdoor lifestyle programming, is proud to honor its enduring partnership with Careco, its largest content provider and a cornerstone of Pursuit’s success. For over 15 years, Careco has supplied more than 12,000 hours of high-quality hunting and fishing content, currently contributing over 116 half-hours of programming each week to Pursuit Channel and its digital platform, Pursuit UP, captivating millions of outdoor enthusiasts worldwide.

Careco TV, led by President Wade Middleton and Co-Owner Kevin Giesecke, has been instrumental in shaping Pursuit’s programming landscape. Iconic Careco-produced shows like Americana Outdoors presented by Garmin, Yamaha’s Whitetail Diaries, Bass Pro Shops Fisherman’s Handbook, and Cabela’s Deer Gear anchor Pursuit’s lineup, alongside turn-key productions and broadcast services for programs such as Federation Angler, Texas Team Trail, National Walleye Tour, and many others. Through Careco airtime sales representation, dozens of additional programs reach Pursuit’s platforms, enriching its diverse offerings.

Their contribution of over 116 half-hours of programming each week across our platforms is unparalleled. We are extremely grateful for this long-standing partnership and for their unwavering commitment to our audience and industry.”

This collaboration has been a driving force behind Pursuit’s recent success, including a 25% year-over-year viewership increase in the first half of 2025, and reaching over 80 million viewers across all platforms. Pursuit Channel’s linear feed serves over 22 million homes via providers like DIRECTV, DISH Network, Comcast Xfinity, and Verizon Fios, while Pursuit UP engages 100+ million users on platforms like Roku, Samsung TV Plus, and Truth+. Careco’s content, spanning both linear and digital platforms, plays a pivotal role in this growth, offering advertisers and producers unmatched exposure to a dedicated outdoor audience.

“Pursuit’s platforms have been a key component to the overall distribution for Careco and our partners who hunt and fish and the platforms Pursuit provides are very important to our industry when it comes to reaching an engaging audience of avid sportsmen and women,” said Wade Middleton, President of Careco TV. “The flexibility and reach allow us to showcase our programming to a responsive audience of hunters, anglers, and outdoor enthusiasts.
