Marcia Rubin - Good Day Tulsa - LIVE Interview from April 08

Marcia Rubin - Womens Bassmaster Tour Pro - 2007 LIVE interview with Bob Ide, Host of The Great Outdoors. Also interviewed is Bass Pro Doug Strickland.

Here I am on day two of the Women's Bassmaster Tour Championship. I am in front of 10's of thousands of screaming fans as I walk across the Bassmaster Classic Stage to weigh in my catch from day two. Wow! What an incredible experience that was!!!

Here I am, on the tank at the Great Outdoor Expo talking about my life on tour with the Women's Bassmaster Tour.

Here I am on the Tank, before starting my Tank seminar at the Great Outdoor Expo in Scranton, Pennsylvania. I was just Messing around with the LIVE Magic Shad because I LOVE to watch this thing in action!!

I created this video as a tribute to my deceased husband, David Tomsic who was tragically killed in a car accident when he was only 21 years old. David took me fishing for my very first time, and it quickly became a huge part of our relationship. Little did he know how much that first experience of fishing would change my life forever. And here is a BIG "Thank You" to Nathan Tomsic, David's son who David never did meet, for creating this amazing music :-)

This was a real "nail biter" of a situation....It was such a tight race between myself and 2 other ladies to make it into the Women's Bassmaster Tour Championship. So many things had to go "right" in order for me to inch my way from 16th place in the race for Angler of the Year (prior to the last event) up to 12th place. Even with my high finish at the Red River, there were so many factors...

Marcia Rubin - Day one of the tourney on the Red River in Louisiana. Mucn to my dismay, I learn that I am in second place at the end of the day! Was I ecstatic? Oh my gosh you better believe I was! All I know is that I want to feel that feeling over and over and over again. :-) (more)

Marcia Rubin - Weighing in on the Women's Bassmaster Tour stage for the final tournament of the season. Being in 16th place for the Angler of the Year, a high finish is critical to ensure a berth into the Women's Championship, as they only take the top 12 ladies.

Still on cloud nine after learning that I had qualified for the 2008 Women's Bassmaster Tour Championship, I had a little face to face camera time to share my thoughts and excitement over this great news. (more)

Watch the ESPN interview immediately after the day one weigh-in at the Red River. Notice how I struggle when the ESPN Cameraman asks me where he can find me out on the water on day two for some on the water photos. He wanted my secret spots!!!! (more)

Hanna and I visited the Butterfly Conservatory in Niagara Falls. Let me just tell you that I really don't like flying things. I don't care if they bite or not...its the whole "flying thing" that is just kind of makes me jumpy. I try SO hard to maintain my composure as I have hundreds of butterflies flying all around me, but at times, it was just too much for me to handle...lol What can I say? I tried :-)

Oh my gosh...she has got it BAD! Would you believe that she actually kissed her smallmouth??? Think she's just a bit happy out on the water? Yeah...I think so!

Finally, I got my sister Michelle out on the boat for a trip to Lake Erie. Oh my gosh, what a great day we had together! No doubt, that after this experience, she is totally hooked on the whole fishing experience :-)

As I'm putting my days catch into the weigh in bag, my Co-Angler, Tracy was holding the bag for me. As I was putting one in the bag, it decided to fing it's tail right into Tracy's face! It was really funny :-)

Tracy and I come in off the water to discover that a lot of ladies were struggling to catch fish.

There have been lots of occasions where I've almost ended up in the water in my attempt to dodge a flying wasp or unknown bug. What can I say? lol They frighten me!!!

On one minute...gone the next....that's the Lake Erie Smallmouth for you!

Lake Erie smallmouth bass are insane! Nothing compares to an Erie Smallmouth!

7th place finish!!! Weighing in my limit three days helped me with my highest finish yet.
