Deeper Roots | Season 2, Episode 5: The Anglers

November 16, 2023
Blain's Farm & Fleet

Deeper Roots | Barb Carey, WI Women Fish

For the second straight fall on The Inside Wisconsin Show’s Deeper Roots with Blain’s Farm & Fleet, Trevor’s gone fishin’!

This time, he and the Blain’s Farm & Fleet crew hop on a boat and head out on the Wisconsin River up near the Dells, with Barb Carey, Founder of WI Women Fish—a grassroots community of female anglers who use their love for fishing and the outdoors as a conduit for growing together in the sport and in life.

Leading the group for over 20 years with help from her VP Rikki Pardon, Barb considers herself a teacher who simply shares what she’s learned over her fishing career, while fostering a judgement-free environment where women can feel comfortable starting the sport. So they can progress quickly and pass on their skills to others, as well.

It’s a feel-good story told in true Wisconsin fashion, and one you’ll definitely want to CATCH!
