Mariko Izumi

Mariko Izumi is best known as the host of the World Fishing Network's flagship original production, Hookin' Up.

As the daughter of Wayne Izumi and niece of Bob Izumi, it is her lifetime experiences with the family fishing show Real Fishing that brought her across America and around the world from a young age, doing everything from kayak fishing in Louisiana to salmon fishing off the northwest coast of British Columbia.

Mariko's education in public relations and foreign languages has been instrumental in her growth as a television personality.

Since she started with WFN in 2007, she has presented a web series on the current events of the fishing industry, hosted her own travel/fishing/adventure series, been the face and voice of the network and built an extensive network of fans.
