EP. 61 Women Making History at the Governor's Fishing Opener

Posted by Angie Scott · May 28, 2019

In Wisconsin, the official start of the fishing season is the first weekend in May. Every year for the last 54 years, the fishing opener was celebrated with the “Governor's Open” which is a weekend media event to showcase Wisconsin’s valuable fishing industry. Fishing is big business for WI and the economic impact of this industry is huge.

The Governors Open event is by invitation only and is primarily a media event with a variety of outdoor communicators in attendance. The event is produced by the Indianhead Country tourism and is always held in the NW part of the state. I decided that this would be a great event to attend and bring The Woman Angler and Adventurer podcast to cover the festivities. After several phone calls, emails, and general inquiries, I managed to get an invitation to this years event, which was held in Rusk County, WI on the Dairyland Flowage.

EP. 57 Talking Fishing Backstage at the Grand Ole Opry with Country Music Star Terri Clark

Posted by Angie Scott · April 30, 2019

It was a busy Friday night at the Grand Ole Opry for country music star Terri Clark. She was hosting the 7:30 segment of the show which included performing two songs of her own. Guests on her portion of the evening's entertainment included bluegrass comedian Mike Snider and country legend John Conlee. (To the audience's amusement, they discovered Clark can do a pretty darn good John Conlee "Rose Colored Glasses" impersonation!)

On top of all of that, Clark hosts her own radio show called Country Gold which includes interviews she does with stars backstage at the Grand Ole Opry. She happened to have one of these interviews to do that evening with industry icon Vince Gill.
