Today we have a g-g-g-g-g-giant episode with a very special guest. He’s a TV legend, he’s an emcee, he’s one of the faces of the top bass fishing circuit in the world, he’s an underwater cinematographer, he’s.. Canadian, he's Dave Mercer! We sit down with Dave almost an hour and a half to get the full Mercer backstory, a fun peak behind the scenes at Bassmaster, and we learn a TON about fish behavior through Dave’s years and years of filming bass underwater.
