As a local Long Islander, Rich has spent an enormous amount of time fishing, filming, broadcasting, and promoting the local flavors of each East End's area he has visited on both the South and North Forks as well as Coastal Connecticut and Rhode Island. 

Rich is well known for his ferocious fighting for East End recreational anglers and the overall fishing industry - taking on the DEC and the Federal Fisheries Managers over crippling fishing regulations. 

Rich’s fishing expertise and accurate reporting, mixed with his jovial nature will bring excitement to each listener of WLNG's new Fishing & Boating segment. For those that fish and those that eat fish, for those that shop for bait or fishing boats...this will capture your attention...hook, line, and sinker!
