I'm April Voki and you are listening to Anchored, my chance to speak with some of the most influential

people involved in the outdoors today.

Join me as I sit down with my guests to learn more about their careers, opinions, history,

relationships, and live both indoors and out.

You may know my guests today as Northwest Fly Girl on social media, or you may even be

a part of her Facebook group, United Woman on the Fly, but you may not know Heather Hotsen.

In this discussion, Heather and I chat about her start and fly fishing, her passion for

education, and her thoughts on inclusion in fly fishing and online communities.

To be inspired by Heather's love of learning and desire to grow and change, so don't miss

out on her story, be sure to listen to the whole episode.

This episode of Anchored is brought to you by South Dakota and its incredible fesent

hunting.

For more than 100 years, fesent hunting has been a storied South Dakota tradition, and

for the next century, they're focusing on making fesent hunting even greater.

Welcoming more hunters to the field, showing the hunting community is for everyone, that's

a legacy to stand the test of time.

Go to huntthegradestst.com to hear stories from women who hunt and learn what makes South

Dakota the world's fesent capital.

Again, that's www.huntthegradestst.com.

So I was born in Anchorage, Alaska, and I was raised in Western Washington in brush

prairie, Washington.

It's about 40 minutes south of Mount St. Helens.
