What do pro anglers really say when the cameras are off?


In this episode, 4-time Bassmaster champion Lee Livesay joins Mercer for a completely unfiltered conversation—no notes, no prep, and nothing off limits.


From the rules shaping today’s tournaments to the rise of AI in fishing, Livesay opens up about where the sport is headed… and what’s really being said behind the scenes.


We get into:

   •   The real conversations happening behind the scenes

   •   How rules & technology are changing the game

   •   The truth about fishing Lake Fork and the “Fork Factor”

   •   The topics every angler wants to talk about—but usually won’t

   •   And why Livesay continues to perform at the highest level


Lee has always called it like he sees it—and this episode is no different: honest, raw, and straight up.


If you love real talk, big bass, and the truth about where fishing is going… this one’s for you.
