Lori Heath-Bendo Babe
I’m Wanda Stewart, a Louisiana-based angler, content creator, and founder of RodnReelGirls—a platform dedicated to empowering women in fishing and helping them build their presence in the outdoor industry.
Fishing isn’t just something I do—it’s a way of life. I focus on saltwater fishing in Louisiana, especially targeting redfish, and I share real, unfiltered experiences from the water that connect with anglers at every level.
Through RodnReelGirls, I’ve had the opportunity to connect with female anglers across the globe. My mission has always been to create a space where women feel seen, supported, and confident sharing their stories. I’ve been told in reviews and feedback that I’ve been instrumental in opening doors for other women in fishing, and that’s something I take seriously. Creating opportunities for others is at the heart of everything I do.
My content blends Louisiana fishing reports, redfish techniques, and lifestyle storytelling—capturing not just the catch, but the moments that keep us coming back to the water.
I’m also the host of the RodnReelGirls Podcast, where I have real conversations with women anglers about their passion for fishing, their challenges, and what drives them to stay connected to the sport.
Beyond content, I build and support digital platforms that help other women in the outdoor space grow their visibility and share their own journeys. Whether you’re just getting started or you’ve been fishing for years, there’s a place for you here.
At the end of the day, my goal is simple: to promote, encourage, and support female anglers—and to help create more space for women in fishing.
Whether I’m on the Louisiana coast chasing redfish or spotlighting another angler’s story, I’m committed to growing this community and bringing more women along for the journey.
