The AF Story

Two kids growing up on the barrier islands on the Space Coast of Florida caught the addiction at an early age. In 1980, Blair Wiggins and Kevin McCabe began their daily fishing excursions before and after school. Kevin had moved from the north and referred to big fish as "monsters". Blair, born and raised in Florida, called them "biggans". As kids do, they combined the words to create what has become the hottest catch phrase on the water. Now that’s a "Mogan"!

Twenty years later, Blair, a professional fishing guide, and Kevin, an award winning television producer, reunited to create the next generation of outdoor television. Addictive Fishing became the new standard for all other outdoors shows to be modeled after. The rockin’ theme music grabs the attention and the antics of the energized host keeps you strapped in for 30-minutes of entertaining, educating and addicting saltwater television viewing.

Capt. Blair Wiggins

a.k.a. "Mogan Man"

Whether he is on the bow or the poling platform, Blair is more at home on his Ranger Boat than on dry land. Capt. Blair spent 12 years as a professional fishing guide before becoming a tournament angler and host of his own show. His lifetime of fishing experience paid off big in 2006 when he won the FLW Redfish Series Championship. Blair continues to travel on the road promoting the addiction and following the tournament trail of the Redfish Cup.

Kevin McCabe

Aka "Mr. Producerman"

The man behind the console stringing clips together is Kevin McCabe. He graduated from University of South Florida and worked for ESPN & NBC where he honed his skills that would later change the look and sound of outdoor television. Kevin used his innovative concept of adrenaline-driven, reality-based production to create his own production company. McCabe Productions (MPI) continues to spread their infectious format through another season of Addictive Fishing.

Patrice McCabe

Aka "Trice"

With her degree from university of Nebraska, Patrice didn’t know much about saltwater fishing before she joined the AF team. Her head for business and an ever growing passion for fishing allowed her to meld right in. Trice plays a leading role in keeping this team sailing smooth and in the right direction. When she is not shuffling papers, she can be found rattling pots & pans. Anybody visiting the Dirty Dog Ranch can be assured they will be well fed.
