I consider myself to be a very ordinary person. I have never “swept” the field like many of our anglers. However, I have always enjoyed my life and the many activities in which I have participated. I found satisfaction in nursing, Radiology business office procedures, tournament production details, writing, hunting and fishing. As I age, I can look back on a very happy life – filled with the love of my children and most people that I have come in contact with. I don’t feel as if I missed a thing. I do enjoy encouraging the young anglers that I come in contact with and renewing old friendships that I have missed in the past few years. My hopes, prayers, and dreams, after the demise of BNG, was that someone (ANYONE) with the money, time, and desires to do something for women’s fishing, and the industry, would step up to the plate and make this opportunity available to us. As I see it, BASS has opened the door for us, we just have to have the courage (and money) to step through it - and, I saw a LOT OF COURAGE at the WBT Inaugarel Event at Lake Lewisville, Texas. I’m Happy!
