Lick The Plate's Annual Great Lakes Fish Stories Week On Q-100 is Back in Northern Michigan With Captain Bill Stephenson From FishBilly Charters in Leland
Michigan's original culinary, culture and music feature with host David Boylan broadcasts all week from the historic Fishtown section of Leland, Michigan talking food, music and fishing aboard FishBilly Charters
LELAND, Mich., July 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Lick the Plate the original culinary, culture and music feature in Detroit, Northern Michigan and San Diego with host David Boylan is back on the water for its annual "Fish Stories" week of shows on Q-100 broadcasting aboard the charter boat FishBilly, in the historic Fishtown section of Leland, Michigan with Captain Bill Stephenson.
Lick the Plate host David Boylan who is an avid fisherman, surfer and boater has an annual tradition of Fish Stories shows in both Michigan and San Diego where his regular west coast guest is Captain Mark Mihelich from Boundless Boat Charters. For the Great Lakes version of the show this year, he was excited to record in Leland, Michigan, considered by many to be the epicenter of Great Lakes fishing. Even more so when he connected with Captain Bill Stephenson aboard his new Hewes Craft 270 Alaskan, built to handle the waters off of Alaska so very comfortable and capable for guests aboard Fishbilly.
Boylan, who was a first mate aboard a 64 foot Hatteras through college out of Grosse Pointe, Michigan discovered that he and Captain Bill grew up very close to each other in Metro Detroit. He had this to say about the recording session: "First off it was very cool to record in the heart of Fishtown in Leland aboard such a beautiful boat. Then to find out that Bill went to high school in Birmingham right next door to Royal Oak and that we both gravitated towards outdoor pursuits at a young age made for some fun conversations. My outdoor adventures have stayed hobbies while Bill has made fishing his livelihood, which I have the utmost respect for…and I'm just a tad bit jealous."
Captain Bill was equally excited to be the subject of the annual Fish Stories show and tell his story to host David Boylan. "I had heard of Lick the Plate but was unaware of this annual feature so when David approached me to join him I didn't hesitate. We quickly discovered we had a lot in common and plenty of shared experiences growing up. And talking about food, music and fishing is something I could do for hours. David is really good at creating a comfortable, conversational tone which made the interview easy and fun."
