In early 2003 Capt Andy LoCascio, Capt Rich Tenreiro and producer Scott Braun joined forces to create a fishing show that they would actually want to watch.

There were plenty of fishing shows on cable, but none of them focused on the Northeast and even remotely bothered to share with the viewers where to find and how to catch the regional species.

Northeast Angling focuses on finding the best destinations and the right captains to get on the hottest bites. This includes all of the  inshore and offshore species in every Northeast coastal state.

In addition to fishing the right places, Capt Andy and Capt Rich work hard to explain exactly how to catch the biggest fish and the correct gear to use.  Every show also has a page on this website, that shows the gear that was used, destination, and the captains they fished with.
