BONUS EPISODE: "Clark Kent Syndrome" PART II of Mic Drop.
This short call with Hall of Fame angler Mike Iaconelli before our trip to Philadelphia adds insights into how he started bass fishing (without permission) and survived as a pro in an outdoor sport with more ways to fail than succeed. His personality helped: He was the face of ESPN's competitive fishing In the early 2000's. Hall of Fame angler Mike Iaconelli follows up our day in Philadelphia with a call to share how a "mild mannered guy" ends up known worldwide for his outbursts, his love/hate relationship with technology, his mentality on the water now, and he shares it with his son, and the stories of the highs and lows of life on the road...
It wasn't easy, but Mike is the only angler to have won Bassmaster Classic (2003), Bassmaster Angler of the Year title, and a B.A.S.S and a Nation Kayak Series Championship. But he's not resting on his laurels in a sport without a guaranteed future. He made that clear in this conversation. Enjoy.
