In the latest episode of The Woman Angler & Adventurer, we got to hear first-hand how high school fishing is helping young girls build confidence, learn valuable skills, and make memories they'll never forget.Here are three key takeaways from the episode:- Fishing helps kids develop essential skills like responsibility and teamwork: Tennessee Bass Nation is the largest high school fishing organization in the US, and kids as young as second grade can get involved. The program teaches them everything they need to know about fishing, and they're responsible for taking care of their equipment and preparing for tournaments.- Success on the water translates to success in life: Hear directly from some local high school fishing young ladies about how fishing helped them develop confidence and strength as young girls. Many girls can load and back the boat better than grown men, proving they can hold their own in a traditionally male-dominated sport.- Fishing can be mentally and physically demanding: One of the young anglers in the episode described waking up as early as 2:30 am to prepare for fishing trips, and some tournament days can last for 14-16 hours or more. But despite the long days and challenging conditions, these girls are proving that they're up to the challenge – and they're having a blast while they do it.Join the conversation on the Woman Angler & Adventurer podcast, and enjoy!Mentioned in this Episode:Tennessee Bass NationSupport Our Partners!Full episode notes available at thewomanangler.com/291Learn more about your ad choices.
