This week we are joined by the Lake Fork legend and as always he tells it like he sees it. He is loving life as a pro angler but he will remind you it’s not all popcorn, piñata’s and princesses in pro fishing.

Behind watching your shows. Really impressed with Lee’s positive attitude & outlook of his life & family. Gotta be a fan of his & wish him nothing but great success!
Lee is 100% right on why his channel is doing well. The fishing aspect is awesome. But how Caleb and Logan do along with the after fishing content is what makes the videos
Ya you spot on with that one. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment
Love Lee!!! He’s a man’s Man! Refreshing to see in this day and age!!
Thanks for watching Matt, Lee is one good dude.
One of my favorites
Me too 👍
Great podcast! Love to hear Lee’s insights on the sport. Express will be a great fit for him. Seems like a crazy cool guy. Man I’m ready for the season to start.
Thanks Bryan, Trust me Lee is one of the best dudes on tour. We talk often but a few times a year we record our conversations & it always makes for a good show
I believe the "tin rigs" will start to shine with how high priced the glass rigs are now days. I joke with my kids about how i fear the guy that shows up to a tourney in an old tin rig with a 2 stroke that smokes like a chimney more than the brand new decked out glass rig! Lee is gonna smash em this year! Another great one Mercer!
Thanks Grant, i appreciate you watching and commenting. Every like & comment truly helps. 👍
Yep it's NOT the boat it's who's in that boat ..
Thanks Dave for another great show Lee's one of the best on an off the water..
I think he's way underrated he'll be raising more blue trophies in that aluminum boat
Good choice Lee..
Thanks Dustin, You got that right about Lee. He is truly one of the best anglers on tour & also a even better person. Appreciate you watching and commenting
HOPE ALL IS GREAT WITH YOU DAVE!!!!! Thank you again for another great episode.. Lee is an awesome guy. And really fun to watch! When you get to hang out with guys like that all the time you really must love your job.. thanks again for the great episode! ✌️
Thanks very much. Life is good & you are correct….I truly love my job
The best phone call I've ever had was from "said angler" calling me after getting that tattoo. I was crying with laughter and had to pull over because I could not drive with the tears in my eyes! bwahahahaha
Oh lord. I could only imagine how that call went
Enjoyed the show guys, I still say that since 2019 the Elite series anglers are the best ever as far as anglers and people and Lee is one of the best. Oh, and don't sell your mohawk short, it stood up for the entire show. Congrats on the Xpress deal also Lee, can't wait to see it.
Thanks Kevin,
That’s a great point the Elites sure did add a bunch of characters since 2019. Proving that pro anglers are just good folks and Lee is one of the best. Thanks for your support every week
And thanks to Lee for his honesty and drinking Busch Light, my hero! 😂
Thanks for watching
Thanks for another good one Dave, Lee is always enjoyable to watch. He's well spoken, is always positive, and has a good viewpoint of things.
Thanks Lucas, That’s one of my favourite things about Lee. He always tells it like he sees it. I ask all my guests to be real and he is one of the realest
Dave, the Smith Lake will be forward facing for sure because that lake is a herring lake, clear, and super super deep. Lots of bluff rock walls, floating docks, and tons of points.
Great show with Lee. I see him with a successful career. He’s gonna be scary from that tin rig. Will be fun to watch!
Thanks for watching Jim, Lee is truly one of the best anglers on tour and he has the stats to prove it.
Thanxs Dave great P.C. glad for Lee having a boat deal, n no worries about it getting 96th. I October lol. Your the best mc. Dave.
Thanks very much. I had zero doubt that Lee would get a boat deal. He is one of the best. Thanks also for your kind words
Picked up a 2023 X23 Bay for up here in Michigan and it is the perfect bass fishing/family boat you can get. Wasn't familiar with Xpress until i saw Christie running it. Put in an order last year to have one built and it is a fantastic boat. People are shocked that its aluminum. Great product!
Thanks for watching. Glad to hear you are happy with your boat. Hope you are catching them
Best you tube series as far as the Elite series goes. The most relatable to most weekend anglers. Keep up the good work and good luck in 2024!
Thanks for watching and commenting. Lees series is definitely one of my favourites too.
Lee Livesay thank you and you as well Dave Mercer And Lee run the hell out of that xpress boat man 🎣👊
Thanks very much for watching and commenting. Support like yours helps this channel grow everyday.
@factsoffishing your welcome and I am already looking forward to next Wednesday night can't wait to see you all have planned
Good show Dave. Lee's mohawk is a triple one on each side and one down the middle. See ya next week.👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks William, I just wish I had hair to grow some kind of hawk 😂. I appreciate you watching and commenting
It’s always a great one when Lee is around. He’s one of my absolute favorite human beings!!! He’s one of, if not, the most genuine fishermen in the industry. Can’t wait to watch him in ‘24!!! Great podcast as usual Dave.
P.S. still waiting on my call to be on this podcast🤷🏻♂️🤣
You got that right. Lee is as genuine as they come. Just a strait up good dude that tells it like he sees it.
You never know who we are going to call on this show….just ask John Cox😂
That call to Cox had me dyin!!!💀💀💀
Dave!!! Mad respect to you for taking the time to respond to dang near every comment! Your show is awesome! I look forward to it every week!
Thanks very much Trey, I do try to get back to everyone. At times I get a little behind but I figure if someone is kind enough to take the time to post a comment the least I can do is respond. Thanks again for watching
Love Lee! Glad to hear from some Elite series guys vs all the other junk about the other side lately.
Thanks Bartlett, it’s a sad deal over there but there is still lots of good happing in pro fishing. Thanks for appreciating the good
Great podcast, always love the quality of guests you bring every week.
Awesome. Thanks Dave !
Thanks you for watching and commenting
I spent day 3 at Classic with Matt. At the end of the day I said your a genius. He laughed and said I only caught one. I said no your mentality/business model is top notch
Great show Dave as always, so fun to see Lee enjoying and living his dream. Best of luck to him next year, what a good dude. Thanks for what you do Dave awesome.
Huge congrats Lee. Loved this episode.
It’s always a fun conversation with Lee. Love that dude. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment
Great show again I had to listen and watch in three segments, but I got it done
Great show. Enjoy Lee’s channel, and yours.
Thanks very much Billy! We both appreciate the support
This was a good one, Dave! Congratulations Lee on the Xpress deal!
Thanks very much David, i appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment and congratulate Lee. Xpress & Yamaha got themselves a good one
Excellent show Dave. As a Fork fisherman Lee is a hero’s me.
Lee is a good dude ! Great fisherman! That crew he runs with are crazy dude's! They have a good time on the road ! The Bush sponcer helps ! Peace dave ! Getting ready for the long cold winter here ! Sad day put the nitro away!
Thanks John, Lee is awesome & you are correct him & his crew sure have a lot of laughs on the road. It’s always one of my favourite groups to hang with. Thanks again for watching and commenting
Dude yes! Great decision bud!
Thanks for watching & taking the time to comment
Change up the time of year lee is going to smash them on fork 2024 his a beast...
I agree he should be a beast to deal with once again on Fork.
Busch Light recycled into an Express! Awesome! Bad day to be a Busch Light😂
😂😂😂
I watch a show with Lee and think this is no different than me and my buddies fishing a out of town lake...well except for they have to catch em to eat...and the beer can live well story is the best
Thanks for watching Bobby, Lee is definitely just one of the guys. But he can sure catch em.
Great video as always!!!!! Glad I watched till the end......(the tattoo)
John.."DO YOU LIKE LEE LIVESAY?".. K BYE!😂😂😂
Lee is a good one, thanks for a great interview!!
Thanks Robert, I totally agree. The world needs more good folks like Lee
Great guest! I’ve been looking to get out in an Express boat
Thank Ed, it’s always a good chat with Lee. Show up at one of the Elites and I bet Lee will take you for a quick ride
Great show Mercer!
Thanks Rex, Having friends/guests like Lee make it very easy
Some great coverage, digging the answers from some of these guys is the entertaining part of the podcasts.
Dave you know how to bring
it!winter is going to be long you think you could do 5 of these a week? It would maybe make time go by faster till the new season starts! You the Man
Hey Shane, Thanks for watching & commenting. Trust me I truly love doing these shows with my buddy’s. I really wish I had the time and resources to do more than one a week. Maybe one day if the channel keeps growing we can add a few more shows. Please keep spreading the word about the show every new viewer helps
Good one, Lee seems like a good dude
Great episode. Love listening to you Dave. Great job.
Thanks very much. It’s always a easy conversation with my buddy Lee
Im still burbing up halloween candy 49 years old im eating candy like a kid 😂 after i checked it for razor blades of course 😂 ...great one again dave like ol lee 👍
And by the way I have zero tattoos and don't plan to get one at 49... I'm not a cloring book
Thanks Slab, I am glad you enjoyed it. Lee is always great to chat with
Wow you me and Lee may be the only ones 😂
Great episode Dave and Lee! Gotta get you over to Australia for the Barra tour! 💪🏻
Thanks for watching Paul, Trust me I would really love to get over there and beat on a few Barra!
👍
👊🏻👊🏻
Shove a GoPro pole in the front seat post holder and have it viewing straight down through the anglers hands at their screen. That’s one of the only ways that shit doesn’t stay boring forever. OR with the exception of the AOY leader towards the end of the season, only put camera crews in boats that are doing more traditional fishing. Then maybe some sponsors will get their baits and equipment airtime.
Thanks for the idea but we are way past that. BASS has already shown the actual feed directly from the graph which works a lot better than trying to watch a GoPro on a graph with sun reflection. They started doing that at the last Classic. I’m sure there will be more and more things they end up adding before next season. Thanks for watching Don
I agree with Lee
He is a great dude
Confidence is a finite resource....
Yep and it’s one of the most important parts of pro fishing
If John Q American was a professional Bass Angler, hed be Lee Livesay
Ain’t that the truth. Thanks for watching
I must be Lee's long lost brother
Maybe so 😂
Lee should grow a real Mohawk if....he wins another Elite event in 24'.
You don’t see a lot of Mohawks in East Texas 😂
@factsoffishing 😅😅 He's definitely not a 80's spikey mohawk kind of guy.
Why
New elite running a Blazer… wonder who it will be? Milliken doesn’t have a boat deal yet. 🤔
Hummmmm maybe? Only time will tell. There are a few other ones that come to mind also
Dave, do you actually look at something when you turn and look up at the intro? Gotta have some sort of target up there LOL!
Nope I just stair off aimlessly in the distance. Not sure when and why I started it but I did not do it one week & people noticed 😂. Thanks for watching
😂😂😂
Agree.....i didn't watch but about an hour of the last 3 tournaments. The smallmouth tournaments were already boring to watch but throw in FFS and it makes it even worse
Sorry to hear that Jason, FFS is definitely a challenge. As far as smallmouth tournaments I love em but then again I smallmouth fish a bunch. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts
Great show Dave!....but for the love of God please stop bringing up FFS 😂
Thanks very much. It’s a hard topic to avoid 😂
Lol you left out SMC lol the one that started the CZcams trend
Somebody call me when they start handing out written fishing knowledge quizzes to the winners of the elite series events. Until then having livescope or ffs and 37 transducers is NOT an unfair advantage. Last time I checked the goal was to catch more weight then everybody else. Not know the most. And to be honest. Everybody can do what that little Japanese fellow is doing. You guys just don’t want to.
Thanks for watching FunkE,
That’s the best thing about fishing. Each individual angler can choose to do it the way they want to do it.
@@factsoffishing unless they ban ffs 😂😂😂
So Lee does have a tattoo?
No he does not
SHECABEER
What ?
@@factsoffishing it means shotgun, a beer translation in Chinese
Lmao on calling Cox epic
Thanks Adam, You never know what’s going to happen on this show. That reminds me I better call Cox and let him know why I hung up on him 😂
Cox juice 😂
I wanna support the guy who fishes an old boat with a 90hp😅 I may catch heat for this but have you met someone who changed sponsors and had negative shit to say about their new sponsorship ITS ALL ABOUT $$$$ ps #livescopesucks
Livescope is cool to learn about fish….but it shouldn’t be allowed at the top level in pro tournaments…IMO…it should be the best of the best…not who’s the best at staring at a live screen ……..
Never though you would go with a tin boat! Good Luck with that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Watching FFS events is like watching a car rust, BORING!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for watching Bill, Lee seems pretty happy with his choice. As far as FFS in many ways I don’t disagree.
Great videos Dave, keep up the good work !@@factsoffishing
B.A.S.S. should ban FF sonar for 1-3 tournaments a year. This would help the sport! I'm a fan and have FF sonar. But at the professional level lets see what they do without it.
Not very often do I get mentioned in a podcast. But to have @leelivesay call me out on @davemercer podcast is pretty cool!! Thanks for all the great shows Dave and I'll see you in February
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching 👊🏻
Persona is the word your searching for. Lol
Please clarify? Not sure what part of the show you are talking about. Thanks for watching
Love the show as always. Lee is my kinda guy. Best show out there Dave , keep it up.
The podcast. I can’t seem to get on track with facts of fishing any more. Not sure where or when it comes on.
