EP. 204 From Tournament Fishing at the Age of 7 To Passing on the Passion to Her Daughters - Melinda Mize

Posted by Angie Scott · October 05, 2021

Tournament Angler Melinda Mize is no stranger to the sport. Both her parents were avid anglers and introduced her to tournament fishing at the young age of 7. She took to it like a fish to water, and it's pretty much been game on ever since. She currently fishes the BFL's, the Toyota Series, Bass Opens, and any local tournaments she can work into her busy schedule.

Now with 2 daughters of her own, Melinda is excited to see how they have taken to the sport as well. It must run in the family!

EP. 200 West Coast Angler Clara Ricabal Getting Out of Her Comfort Zone and Pushing the Limits!

Posted by Angie Scott · September 07, 2021

Welcome to a milestone! The 200th episode of The Woman Angler & Adventurer podcast. Since this show launched back in 2018, we've had only a few West Coast anglers on the show- not nearly enough. So I can't think of a better way to celebrate our 200th episode with another West Cost angler- Clara Ricabal!

Clara's origins are from Cuba, so she's bi-lingual and part of Takemefishing.org's Women Making Waves campaign, as well as their Vamos A Pescar initiative to help get more women and minorities involved in the sport of fishing.

EP. 196 The Best Fishing Rods on Earth? Conversation with Savannah Stenlund from St. Croix Rods

Posted by Angie Scott · August 10, 2021

I recently had the opportunity to do a tour of the St. Croix Rods headquarters in Park Falls, WI. I have to say, if you're into fishing and you ever have the opportunity to do this free tour, I highly recommend you do it! The manufacturing process of a fishing rod is unbelievable. At St. Croix, they even make their own blanks, and to able to witness that process alone is phenomenal.

Before that, I had the opportunity to meet and chat with Savannah Stenlund, the new Angler Engagement Coordinator with the company. I can't wait for you all to have the chance to meet her as well on this week's episode!

EP. 193 What Happens In Put-in-Bay Stays In Put-in-Bay...or Not! We Tell All in This Episode Taking About Smallmouth and Walleye Fishing on Lake Erie with Mark1 Sportfishing

Posted by Angie Scott · July 20, 2021

We had such a fantastic time fishing with Captain Mark Cahlik with Mark1 Sportfishing and Bays Edge Resort up on Lake Erie out of Port Clinton, OH a few weeks ago that he invited us back up to have a go at smallmouth bass this time around. What a treat that was! These smallmouth on Lake Erie are no joke. We caught a bunch of chunks that meant business and we had an absolute ball!

EP. 189 Cane River Tournament Recap!

Posted by Angie Scott · June 22, 2021

It was a hot and humid grind, but we all survived and I'm bringing you a quick recap of my experience on this week's episode! I also had a couple conversations from backstage during weight-in on Day 2 with a couple other anglers, Noella Mclaurin and Shannon Wells to share a little bit about their experience.

While it didn't end well at all for me, I am happy to say I earned enough AOY points throughout the season to qualify to fish The Classic on Logan Martin in September! That was one of my major goals this season, and with it being my 1st as a boater and all the challenges I had to overcome throughout the year, I am very happy to have made it.
