Ridge Radio, a local community radio station in Surrey, will be having amongst their line up of music shows a live angling talk programme hosted by Russ Evans, well known to FishingMagic readers via his ‘In Session’ features.
Called The Obsessed Angler after Russ’ angling DVD series which can be viewed on Onlinefishing.tv and FishingCinemaTV the Wednesday night show kicks off on 18 January 2012 with a weekly slot of 9pm to 11pm every Wednesday.
Russ, who currently works as tackle shop manager at Bury Hill Fishery, Dorking said:
“I discussed having an angling show on Ridge Radio about a year ago with station boss Mark Jones when they were setting up the station based in Caterham and just after Christmas Mark contacted me to see if I was still interested as they are looking to have a specialist show, like angling, in their line up.”
After a meeting that followed it was all systems go for the new show which can be picked up via the internet worldwide by clicking on www.ridgeradio.co.uk and then the Ridge Radio icon player.
Russ added:
“The show will involve angling talk of course and listeners can contact me direct in the studio with any questions or news via email on studio@ridgeradio.co.uk so if you have any events you want mentioned such as festivals, matches or angling clubs looking for new members then let me know as I am only to happy to help.
The show will also consist of music as well, so be prepared as my music taste is very varied. I am very excited about it and any opportunity to promote our sport is all good in my book.”
