Fishing Guide, Professional Tournament Angler, Founder & CEO RM Media
Capt. Rick Murphy knew from the time he was 5 years old that he wanted to spend his life outdoors fishing. A native Floridian, Rick grew up fishing in the waters off Key Biscayne and the Florida Keys, and honed his skills in the diverse habitats and shallow waters of Everglades National Park.
Today, he is considered one of the area's expert guides.
His search for adventure has taken him around the globe--from tracking salmon in Alaska and billfishing in Guatemala to tagging Mako sharks in Isla Mujeres, Mexico, with Guy Harvey. Along with being a professional tournament angler and the founder and CEO of RM Media, he is the executive producer and host of three of the most popular
fishing shows on TV: Sportsman's Adventures (on air since 1994), Florida Insider Fishing Report (2004) and Texas Insider Fishing Report (2017). In 2018, Discovery picked up Sportsman's Adventures, helping fulfill a lifelong dream: to share his love of fishing and the environment with as many people as possible.
Awards and Recognition
Capt. Rick is the all-time winningest saltwater tournament angler in the U.S. with 144 titles to date, and the only professional redfish angler to win three redfish titles in 12 months. He is also the only angler to win inshore and offshore saltwater championships in every category (bonefish, redfish, sailfish, tarpon, permit).
He has won the four Keys Tarpon Fly Fishing Tournaments (Ladies Tarpon Fly, Golden Fly, Don Hawley and Gold Cup), and has taken home Angler of the Year Honors from ESPN, FLW and IFA Redfish Tours. He is a South Florida Sailfish Circuit winner and twice was Master Angler Jimmy Johnson National Billfish Championship.
He is a Legacy Member of Coastal Conservation Association and a champion and contributor to the cause of preserving our oceans and their inhabitants.
