Abu! Loving the shout outs and the notes about how the comments touch your feels. Your podcast does more than you know for more people than you realize.
@ it’s perfectly branded and simple yet colorful, also thank you for making something that is well worth coming back to weekly! I greatly appreciate you! Hopefully some day I’m shaking your hand on that stage, tight lines sir!
ABU!! I dont know if you was hinting at multiple podcasts in a week but if you were I'm here for it man... Kyle is one of my favorite anglers on tour and I really hope he crushes it this year. Great video as always keepem coming brother!!!
@@ryancannon9358 thanks Ryan, Without you guys i would be a out of work fishing bum so I will always try and give back. Thanks for your long time support
Thanks for doing what you do, always makes my drives better to and from work! The longer the video the better sense you only post one a week. You're the best in the business! Abu
ABU stopped by to fix a squeaky door one day while my daddy was out of town, 9 months later I was born. Love the show, been a listener since episode 1! Pick me to win! P.S - your eyebrows look handsome AF brother.
read in MN Canadian accent - I'm all abu-t ABU Garcia. Keeping an even demeanor about things like Kyle Welcher is a good plan for success, that's what I'm talking abu-t (aboot as they say in Canada)
Really like the way Stone Cold fishes. Been following his channel for years. Great podcast with him. Left shoulder replaced last week, but that Abu sure would be sweet when I can again.
ABU, I live on Chickamauga Lake. One day I was searching UA-cam for Chickamauga Fishing and ran across Kyle. I watched several and thought, “who does this kid think he is.” The next week or so I saw him on BASS Live fishing Guntersville. He is an extremely good fisherman hope he gets that classic win soon.
I have watched Kyle since his UA-cam Channel was at 500 followers. IMO, he has grown as an angler 300%! His accomplishments have not been luck! He has worked extremely hard! Also he is a full blown man now. He is a husband, a father and great professional angler. Keep up the good work Kyle!
What a great guy Kyle is. Just a piece of advice from a guy whose kids are grown and married. I even have a grandchild. Soak up every moment with that baby boy. You think that first year went by fast, well they get a little faster each year. I’d love to win that Abu. I would just have to go out and get a new rod and that would give the wife another reason to say, “don’t you have enough rod and reels in the boat?” As always, great show Dave!!
Abu Garcia!! Yesssssss! Kyle is awesome. I remember his earliest videos with Hunter in his backyard. Not long after that he was catching a 10 pounder on the St. John’s. Now he’s just a straight hammer and the newest AOY. I love it… LFG. Hey, great job on BTL, Dave.
Abu!! Love the show Dave keep It up have listened to every show. Love it. Pretty awesome you are doing the giveaways throughout December love the fact you’re giving back to the fishing community and listeners.
I’ve introduced my kids to the shipped my pants last week 😂 they haven’t quit saying it at least three times a day thru say it. Welcher reminds me a lot of Hackney when he talks. Enjoyed this interview thanks for bringing us a great podcast again and every week Mercer. Abu
Thanks for watching! I appreciate you taking the time to comment and let me know your thoughts. I have a feeling after this show lots of people’s kids will be saying I shipped my pants this holiday season 😂
Great interview! You also did a great job on BTL! That was an awesome interview although he put you on the spot! I need to buy your book, somehow get it to you to sign it! That Abu Garcia reel would be a nice addition to my reel collection!🏆😎
Hello Dave Mercer here from New York. I fish a Abu Revo Premier casting reel(6.6.1). It would be awesome to fish the spinning reel on Oneida for some smallmouth. Merry Christmas to you and yours. Love KYLE WELCHER
Follow you and Carl from Aus. Have listened to every podcast and look forward to it every week. Awesome to hear some of the tournament stories and a bit more about the anglers 👏👏👏
Abu. Abu. Abu. Great show. Love the non fishing related questions. It gives a good sense of these anglers true personalities. Favorite smell...outboard exhaust in the morning.
So glad I found your podcast earlier this year love every episode Sure would love to add an ABBA Garcia to my spinning real collection. Hope you and your family have a very special holiday season
Dude, I played this on the Smart T.V this week. Abu Garcia is Hands down my favorite, Lots of memories made with My grandad fishing the old Ambassador. Still have several of his old ones.
ABU for the win! Another great show. I'm with Kyle on the tomatoes. I can't even eat a burger if it had one on it by mistake, yes it has been infected. Best smell ever........2 stroke exhaust (the smell of victory)
I never looked at it that way, a mix between KVD and the late great A.MARTINS, that's a PERFECT depiction of Kyle!!!! A very super humble down to earth but straight killer on the water, will set the hook so hard an reel back in a set of lips and no fish,!😂.. buddy's a BEAST, great episode 💪.. Abu...#Abu
Great episode, made my morning! Better call your publisher, I checked Amazon for your book discussed on BTL, out of stock. Hope to have an Abu reel shipped to me.
Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed this episode. As far as the book, I googled it and it showed up? Here is the link www.amazon.ca/Facts-Fishing-Secrets-Fish-Dont/dp/1554680603
The title makes sense now, lol one of my other fishing Pro. Who I like watching his podcasts like yours Dave.

Thanks for enjoyable show smiled a lot laughed and deep thoughts. Covered it all as always thank you n your wife. Bman.
Been down with Welcher a couple yrs before he went to the Elites. He's a hell of a stick . Def helped my love of Jig fishing especially Swim Jigs! He's also the one that got me to flippin a D-Bomb wich caught me my PB in '21..
Great as always, Kyle is an amazing dude, now get an interview with Hunter she knows the business better than most. Oh and Abu Garcia has a great lineup, they look amazing.
Another fantastic episode Dave! Loved the talk about staying positive and just not being negative. It doesn’t only help with fishing. Thanks for the opportunity to win the abu Garcia spinning reel. I have some spinning reels to replace before next spring and am trying to figure out what brand/model I want to try!
The ABU is a great little gift to go along with the gift of gab you spilled out tonight with Kyle. Kyle is a good guy to the point he helped me get with a dealer in Alabama to have a lower unit put on my Proxs 250. We had traveled down for a college derby on eufala. Thanks for another great show Dave.
Dave, you’re the man. Working from home is 100x less boring with this on in the background every week. ABU!
