Episodes

Wow! Hard to believe we've hit 250 episodes! This week I'm excited to welcome Captain Debbie Hanson back to the show. Debbie was a part of putting the 2022 Women in Fishing Meetup together at iCast along with other past podcast guests Bebe Harrison and Dee Kaminski. I thought it would be fitting to wrap up with a series of episodes from iCast with a recap of how the event went and to discuss some of the wonderful retention ideas that were shared at the meetup.

This week I am featuring the final interview I did from this year's iCast down in Orlando. It was an honor to get to sit down "backstage" with Costa Sunglasses Vice President of Marketing John Acosta to talk about the Compete + Conserve program, the new Pro Series lineup, and more!

"Live the Passion" and "Network. Eat. Sleep. Repeat." are two mantras of iBass360, an organization dedicated to promoting the sport of bass fishing all the way from the everyday amateur angler on up to the seasoned pro.   What drew me to iBass360 was its relentless support for female anglers. I kept seeing their posts pop up on my social media feed time and time again, most if not all of them craftily written by their Social Media Director Eric Evans. Finally, I couldn't help myself and I had to dig in to find out more about who they were.

It's a hot topic these days across industries and workplaces but perhaps more important than ever in the outdoors world for many reasons...D.E.I. which stands for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. That's were Camber Outdoors steps in with a long history of expertise.

Welcome to this week's episode of The Woman Angler & Adventurer podcast! It is the kick-off of iCast and I'm excited to capture some amazing content for you this week for future episodes! Before we get into that, I am blessed to have yet another amazing lady to feature this week. Unfortunately, she won't be able to make it down to Orlando due to travel, but I was thankful to be able to catch her via phone!

It is truly an honor to welcome this week's guest to the show, and the timing couldn't be more perfect! It was just announced that Leiza Fitzgerald is among the latest group of inductees into the Florida Sports Hall of Fame! Not only is she a female angler, but she is the 1st angler ever to be inducted! Talk about history in the making!

Welcome to this week's episode which is a quick mid-year solo episode (leading up to next week's epic guest interview)! Time to get on track. The plan? Metabolic Renewal. Listen in to find out more...

Let's face it, it affects half the world's population, and as active outdoors women, we have to pay extra attention to our female bodies so we may as well talk about it! Let's get it out in the open- this week's topic is all about periods and menstrual cycles!

Welcome to another exciting episode of The Woman Angler & Adventurer Podcast. This week I'm happy to feature longtime Walleye Tournament Angler Marianne Huskey. Marianne made history when she became the 1st female to win a major walleye tournament! You'll hear all about that, how she now coaches others on how to win tournaments, and much more!

On this week's episode of The Woman Angler & Adventurer podcast, enjoy the background behind the amazing Miss Mayfly Waders, and much more from creator Kim Ranalla! This conversation was such a treat, I'm going to let it speak for itself! Enjoy!

If you've ever heard of Mosquito Lagoon or the Indian River, you've likely heard some stories of pretty epic fishing experiences. This week I am chatting with a kayak fishing guide on Florida's Space Coast, meet Dee Kaminski!

Imagine traveling to destinations such as Labrador in search of trophy brook trout, the Bahamas and Hawaii for bonefish, Louisiana for bull redfish...and that's just the tip of the iceberg. Meet Kesley Gallagher! Home for Kesley these days in Los Angeles, CA, where she finds plenty of fishing adventures there, but the air still calls her to those destination locations. In fact, next month she's traveling to Belize! Hear all about her travels (many of them solo trips), world record catches and tournament fishing adventures on this week's episode!

Mixing it up a bit this week! I just recently had the opportunity to chat with Marcia Brownlee, host of the Artemis Podcast, and special guest co-host Maggie Heumann for an upcoming episode of their show, and I get to share that with you this week on The Woman Angler & Adventurer!

Imagine fishing one of the most pressured, clearest, grass-covered lakes in the country during one of the biggest pro bass tournaments for the 1st time ever. Well, that was me this past week. It indeed proved to be a major challenge and, not that I need it, but a humbling experience! However, I was blessed to get the opportunity to sit down with an amazing lady out on Lake Guntersville, Captain Betty Stahl, and that made any struggles I may have had on the fishing side more than worthwhile. I am excited to share it with you on this week's episode!

This is the final episode of the Revisited Series as my crazy tournament schedule winds down this weekend...listen in to the intro for a recap of Caddo Lake and what's to come! Also, get an update on the 2022 iCast Women's Networking Event so you can block it out on your calender if you plan to attend iCast!

Welcome to our 2nd episode in our Earth Day Celebration Revisited Series! This week we're going WAY back to episode 47 featuring Artemis Sportswomen! Be sure and listen to the intro for an update from the road going from Guntersville to Caddo Lake for the 2nd stop of the 2022 Women's Pro Bass series!

This is the busiest few weeks of my schedule for this year so in order to continue bringing you amazing content I've decided to launch a new revisited episode series centered around the topic of conservation in honor of Earth Day!

Morgan (Mo) Prater has always had a competitive spirit, and when she was introduced to the sport of fishing by her now husband, she was hooked. She started out with conventional fishing and eventually turned to fly fishing as another tool in her arsenal to catch more fish. Hear all about her story and how she's turned fishing into her livelihood on the Lower Mountain Fork River in Broken Bow, OK on this week's episode!

Last week we introduced you to an exciting new program launching on Tuesday, April 19th called Artemis Sportswomen Bass Tactics. This week I chat with the woman behind the program to go more in-depth. Welcome back to the podcast, Marcia Brownlee!

Are you interested in bass fishing and want to kick your skills and knowledge up a notch? Would you like to meet other women who are also passionate about spending time on the water? Listen to this episode to learn all about it!

Hard to believe March is almost over! I hope you've enjoyed our Celebration of Women in Sports Month with our special guests! To wrap it up we're doing something a little bit different. I recently got to sit down with my friend, The Crappie Hippie John King while he picked my brain about bass tournament fishing. It was a super fun conversation, and John was kind enough to let me share it with listeners of The Woman Angler & Adventurer this week!

You're in for a rare treat this week as we wind down our celebration of Women in Sports Month. We don't often have the chance to welcome West Coast anglers on the show. I'm excited for you to meet Captain Virginia Salvador out of San Francisco!

As we continue to celebrate Women in Sports Month, this week we welcome video producer Lauren Adams to the show! Lauren works for the National Hot Rod Association. How cool is that? She had her 1st ever fishing experience with us at the Academy Sports + Outdoors Women's Fishing Retreat. Hear all about it and her work with the NHRA on this week's episode!

Welcome to this special encore audio edition of Women's World of Fishing Monday Night Takeover on The Woman Angler & Adventurer Podcast.
