EP. 263 Meet Kay Donaldson, Director of the Alabama Bass Trail Tournament Series
Lady Anglers aren't strangers to the trail either. The likes of Pam Martin-Wells have fished it, and even an all-female team in Captain Betty Stahl and Linda Sands.
This week I invite you to enjoy a slightly condensed audio version of a recent Women's World of Fishing Monday Night Facebook/YouTube Live featuring professional bass angler Stephanie Hemphill-Pellerin.
We understand it can be a challenge on Monday nights to take the time out and sit down with your device or computer and tune-in, so I decided to share with you the great conversation Barbara Harris and I had with this incomparable woman angler. Now you can listen in on your commute to work or to the shopping mall for those last-minute Christmas gifts.
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!
Welcome to Episode 201 of The Woman Angler & Adventurer Podcast! We're moving on to another epic 200 episodes! I can't think of a better way to kick things off than with my special guest this week, Becky Iaconelli!
I'm sure you're already familiar with the Iaconelli name, via of course the famed bass angler Mike, affectionately referred to as "Ike." Becky, Mike's wife, does A LOT behind the scenes to help Mike's career as far as sponsorships, marketing and much more.
On this week's episode of the show, I have the opportunity to feature one of the most respected anglers that fishes the Women's Pro Bass Tour, Lady Bass Anglers Association Tournament Trail: Alisa Johnson. Alisa has been fishing with the LBAA for 9 years now. She started out at the back of the boat and got to fish with a lot of the Pros that she now competes against as a boater.
She learned a lot from these ladies over the years and it's evident that she's putting the knowledge she gained to great use. She's a consistent angler and I'm so excited for you all to get the chance to meet her as we chatted backstage right before she had to weigh in at the Cane River Wildcard tournament on Day 2.
