BEYOND THE BITE -EP.3 Lisa Roper on VOICES, a podcast by DOA Dorward Outdoor Adventures

In this episode of VOICES, I sit down with one of the most recognizable faces in Canadian fishing - the incredible Lisa Roper! Angler, educator, outdoor mentor, and a woman whose passion for the wild runs deeper than the lakes she fishes. What unfolds is an honest, energizing conversation about family, purpose, and the power of sharing what you love with others.Lisa opens up about the roots of her fishing journey, the joy of watching her kids and grandkids grow up outdoors, and the responsibility she feels to help more women step confidently into the wilderness. She also pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to produce a nationally televised fishing show — the long days, the teamwork, the storytelling, and the grit behind every episode.And because it wouldn’t be a Lisa Roper conversation without it, she shares practical, experience‑earned tips for catching walleye — the kind of insights only someone who lives on the water can offer.The episode closes with a moose hunting story that captures everything VOICES stands for: respect for the land, gratitude for the moment, and the quiet lessons the outdoors gives us when we’re paying attention.If you’re drawn to authentic stories, outdoor wisdom, and conversations that leave you thinking long after they end, this one will stay with you!
