Possible, but highly unlikely. Better question is will a woman ever qualify for the Classic. Pam Martin-Wells and Kim Bain-Moore have both competed in the classic...so at least 2 women have qualified, I believe it was through the WBT before it was dissolved.

Guess we will see what route Scott Martins daughter will take. She has the Youtube thing down and is a pretty decent angler.
I don’t see Trait even getting to a Classic, but neither will I. Anybody making it to the Big Show deserves BIG Respect no matter the gender. Hillary Martin has the personality for social media no doubt about it. The girl can fish too. Being able to make decisions on the fly, run the boat and put fish in the boat is a TOTALLY different thing than walking the bank with a GoPro strapped to your chest from canal to canal. That is not to say she couldn't make the Classic one day perhaps even win it. I would cheer her on.

Ever is a long time. So I'd say maybe, at some point. However, God created hunters and gatherers, male and female. We are different in so many ways and it is wonderful.

Trait Christ (Zaldains wife) has been trying to get there for years. She can catch em, just can’t catch a break when she needs one. She’d be my bet to at least get there and have a shot at it. Lmao. That's funny +1 for being funny

I don’t see Trait even getting to a Classic, but neither will I. She probably knows from her Dad, the money is in entertainment, not fishing tourneys.

I vote yep, no doubt it could happen. I’ve watched enough episodes of “naked and afraid” to never underestimate a women. I’ve watched way more men, who talked a big game, “TAP OUT” way before the girls. Not to mention child birth.

No, because they get dehydrated and their cameramen are not allowed to open their water bottles or Gatorade for them.

It is a numbers game. How many people fish in just your state? Out of that how many fish for bass then how many are men? The number of skilled men pros is so much more than women so it would naturally be a smaller number that might have the ability. If more women get into the sport the odds only get better for them. No other reason that a woman couldn't be as good as any man in fishing. I always wondered why they have to have their own category for tournaments,. No reason for it.
