What is your most memorable fishing
experience?
My most memorable experience was fishing
on Kentucky Lake in 2019 with my Dad. It
was my last fishing trip with my Dad and
we were practicing for the Bassmaster High
School National Championship.
What do you consider your greatest
accomplishment in fishing?
My greatest accomplishment was fishing
my first LBAA tournament and finishing
5th. It was my first out of college tourna-
ment besides the BFL’s.
What is your favorite body of water to
fish?
My favorite bodies of water to fish are
highland reservoirs. My all time favorites
are Table Rock, Bull Shoals and Smith
Lake.
What is your goal or what are your
goals for 2022?
My goals for the coming year would be
to qualify for all three college National
Championships, MLF, Bassmasters, and ACA. I
also hope to place in the top 5 again in the LBAA
Truman Lake event, and to film more.
Murray, KY ANGLER’S POINT
When did you get
started fishing?
I started fishing as soon as
I could hold a rod. My Dad
was a fishing guide, so I was
born to fish...so to speak.
Who would you take with you
for a fun day of fishing?
For a fun day of fishing, I would take my
boyfriend Luke, whom I met at Murray
State on the fishing team. We love to travel
all over for fishing excursions and tourna-
ments.
What are three lures or techniques that
you always rig up for a day of fishing?
My three top lures for any trip are a soft
paddle tail swimbait 2.5”-4” on a ball head,
a drop shot and a crankbait.
What is your dream lake to go fish for
the first time and why?
My dream lake to go fish would be Mille
Lacs Lake in Minnesota because of the big
smallmouth. I love off shore fishing in clear
water. High on the bucket list!
