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. 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!
