Alice Jones Webb
Alice Jones Webb is a writer, lifelong angler, and former pier rat who grew up fishing the Chesapeake Bay, farm ponds, and Virginia’s Chickahominy River. She learned to cast on bluegill and bass in farm ponds, but her heart was in the salt — waiting on summer cobia runs and working jigs off the rail of a Virginia pier. These days, her favorite fisheries include the early spring shad run on the Tar River, surfcasting the Outer Banks, and targeting speckled trout in the Pamlico Sound. Her work appears in Outdoor Life, Field & Stream, Game & Fish, Free Range American, and in her newsletter Take It Outside, where she covers wild places, reliable gear, and the kind of fishing stories worth telling twice.
