RB was a graduate of NCSU in Agriculture and an active Moose Lodge Member and had a passion for Saltwater Fishing. From the early 1991’s until 2008, RB enjoyed competitive saltwater tournament fishing on the Southern Kingfish Association tournament trail. In 2005 he and teammate Jeff Reid finished in the top 15 in the North Carolina division and were invited to fish for the National Championship in Biloxi, MS. where they finished in the top 20. They were featured in an article that year in the Angler Magazine along with several newspaper articles where RB stated it was their fishing against the best in the Nation.
