Debbie Hanson - Peacock Bass ​

​​

Captain Debbie Hanson is an award-winning outdoor writer, former Reel Talk Radio host on ESPN SWFL, and former freshwater fishing guide living in Estero, Florida. Her passion for the outdoors was ignited at a young age due to her experiences fishing on the lakes of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan with her grandfather.

Debbie's articles, covering both freshwater and saltwater fishing techniques, have appeared in publications such as Game & Fish Magazine, BoatUS Magazine, USA Today Hunt & Fish Magazine, and Gulfshore Life Magazine. Her contagious enthusiasm for the sport has led her to appearances on nationally-televised shows such as Lunkerville, George Poveromo's World of Saltwater Fishing, and A Fishing Story with Ronnie Green. 

She also serves on the Board of Directors at Fish Florida, a nonprofit organization which helps people, especially children, learn about the fishing and the environment.
