Miami, FL –Sportsman’s Adventures, hosted by fishing legend Capt. Rick Murphy, hit a home run in 1994 with its first season, becoming the most popular fishing show on Fox Sports Sun. Now celebrating 25 years on the air, Capt. Rick Murphy had this to say, “It seems like only yesterday that we filmed our first Sportsman’s Adventures episode. That’s proof time flies when you’re having fun!”
The adventure began in 1993 when Capt. Rick Murphy ran into an opportunity to host his own show. A day after being featured as a guest guide on ESPN, he stopped by Happy Days Bait and Tackle in Florida City where fate waited patiently in the form of two anglers with the ability to help create a show unique to Florida. They would name the show Sportsman’s Adventures, feature Capt. Rick Murphy as its host, and gear it to the average Florida angler who wanted to learn more about their sport.
Now airing on Discovery, Pursuit and Fox Sports Sun networks, Sportsman’s Adventures not only features hot spots in Florida, it takes viewers right along with top guest anglers to exciting destinations. Each high-energy episode is an excellent source for new products and techniques; plus the advanced camera action, including drone and underwater shots, make it a must-see show. Catch the new season starting January 2019. Visit YouTube for episodes you might have missed.
“Rick and his team have done a fantastic job upping their game and bringing higher production value to Sportsman’s Adventures in recent years. This plus their commitment to protect and sustain natural resources as well as enjoy the rewards our oceans provide ensures the sport will continue to thrive. To me, Rick represents an exciting and realistic portrayal of the best angling lifestyle one could experience, and he does it in an entertaining, informative way with a watchful eye toward the future. His presence and following are second to none, which is why Yamaha has been the presenting sponsor of Sportsman’s Adventures since 1994,” said Frank Wilhelm, Advertising & Digital Marketing Manager with Yamaha.
