I received an email from Kelly Gotch, one of the co-hosts of Michigan Out-of-Doors. Kelly will be leaving the show in a few weeks to explore other opportunities. You may have seen her on “Step Outside” on the Outdoor Channel as well, she will continueher co-hosting duties and stay with that show. Kelly will be starting her new show on the Pursuit network, which is called, ” The Guide Series”, with Kelly Gotch.
I met Kelly about four years ago while fishing the Ice Team’s series of Super Trap Attack ice fishing tournaments. She first appeared out of place on the ice and the rosy cheeks had nothing to do with make-up. Over the years, you could see her grow into her position and take a firm grip on the situations when they arrived. She traveled with the production crew to film Michigan’s contingent of anglers at the North American Ice Fishing Championship that used to be held in Minnesota, two separate years. It was good to come home and have the shows air on Michigan Out-of-Doors and see what the other anglers were doing that might have been different than my own team’s plan of attack.
She was a warm and friendly face, who knew her job and always handled herself well and with professionalism. Good Luck Kelly, will miss you on Thursday nights!
