Interesting show. I liked the host, but Capt Rich was a little too boastful and exaggerates a bit much for my taste.
Ex:
- At the start he tells about how he uses the fishfinder and that he can tell bass from other fish; then they only hook bluefish every time he finds bass on day one? Yet he seemed convinced that they were bass when they hooked up.
- He considers 20# line to be "light tackle" eeling?
- His 30# bass look more like sub 20s to me. The last bass caught by the host seemed pretty big though.
- He endlessly ribs the host about his fishing ability, yet he had to get a guide to find bass on day 2.

Nothing wrong with the actual doing, just the boasting/BSing. BS is like salt on food; a little makes it interesting, too much is distasteful.

I like that he had good energy for TV, and explains the techniques, conditions and equipment that they use. Too many shows just show hookup through release.

All in all a good show.

Best regards,
Roger
