A four-time WBT winner from Bainbridge, Ga., Martin-Wells is only the second woman in history to qualify for the sport’s biggest event. Kim Bain-Moore of Alabaster, Ala., was the first, winning the 2008 Angler of the Year and a berth in the 2009 Classic.

“Words can’t describe this,” Martin-Wells said. “I can walk through the living room and see a commercial on TV for the Bassmaster Classic – I freeze, watch it and get goose bumps. Now I’m going to get them for real. It’s going to be an awesome experience.”

Pam Martin-Wells claimed Angler of the Year at the Bassmaster Women's Tour Championship on Louisiana's Cypress Black Bayou Lake this last weekend.  She finished in 2nd place weighing in with 31 lbs. 11 oz. for the 3 day tournament.

The Bassmaster Classic will be held on Lay Lake, Birmingham, AL February 19-21, 2010.  More from ESPN's Bassmaster.com
