- Jason Christie has 10 FLW wins and 8 Bassmaster wins. He is a 10 time Bassmaster Classic Qualifier and the 2022 Bassmaster Classic Champion. Christie has accumulated an incredible 4 million dollars in winnings, making him one of the most feared names in professional bass fishing. But what scares him? That question, as well as many other awkwardly honest questions are answered on this week’s Mercer Podcast.

It went from grow the sport too * The sport it over grown ! These 275 boat tourneys got too stop < And everyone is a pro ? Always good to see jason
That whole grow the sport thing is SO STUPID. You want to grow the sport?!? Grow it where?!? There aren't any more lake being built. There's a finite amount of water out there. There's no room to grow the sport unless we're gunna start building more lakes and have more places to fish
You are not wrong 😂. Jason is always a great dude to chat with
Hey Randy, Gee I wonder who started the whole grow the sport line
I was talking with my dad who I fish team derby’s with about how livescope has changed things and he said something that I’ve never thought of. He said RUclips (social media in general) has changed bass fishing more than anything else in the history of the sport. You can go from not having any idea of how to catch a bass to pretty proficient in fishing quicker than you ever have before. You don’t need a mentor or father figure to teach you how to do something all the info you need to be a stick is out there online at the push of a button. Way easier for kids to learn now than ever before.
Will be a SUPER cool podcast to have Mrs. Christie on to talk from the Sponsor's side/perspective of things
I will definitely try make it happen Randy
Your no directions podcasts are the best. Letting your guests take off on any tangents makes for a fun & informative show. Certainly do need a Sponsors 101 podcast!
Thanks David, Trust me we will do the Sponsor 101 show for sure. Glad you are digging the podcast style
Loved the Slapshot and LetterKenny reference. Not many in the south get it but I’m a huge Habs fan and I do . Really cool
It would be interesting to see an Elite event that was no electronics. Map reading, weather patterns, wind direction, true skill would show through. As always another get show, with fantastic representation of the who’s who.
Thanks David, I appreciate you watching and that tournament sure would be a fun one to watch
Now that's a guy ya just wanna hang out with, have a couple beers, and go reel some in. Great chat with a really good person. Thanks for bringing that to us, Dave.
Thanks David, He is a great dude & always fun to hang with
I gained a new respect for JC after hearing him talk about his sponsors. He said “seeing them happy was the best part of his Classic win”. Good Dude. Hope he wins again. Good show Dave!
Thanks Zachery, Jason sure is one of the good guys
No babe , the snake 🐍 is over here😂😂😂you had me rolling!! I remember the Zona snake show and Christie definitely jumped out of his skin😂 would’ve loved to hear all that was said when that took place! Keep up the great podcasts 🎣🎣
Jason is an absolute hammer!!!Great dude also. Thanks Dave and Jason. Awesome conversation.
Thanks for watching Ronnie!
How cool you get to spend some
Of these magical moments with some of the best fisherman on earth dave 🤘🤘
Thanks I am a very lucky guy
Ya did it again Mercer!!!! Love love love, Christie. One of my favorite pros. He reinstates all is not lost and things are pretty darn good. Just does his thing!
Thanks Shane, he is one of my favourites too
Never in my life would I have thought that the one thing Jason Christie and I have in common is that my mother was also bit by a snake when she was a child, which turned into a life long fear of snakes, and she passed that on to me 🤣
Great podcast as usual!
Jason came along after I stopped fishing pro level events so I’ve never met him. He is a really great interview and has a good UTube channel. I don’t ever remember a Classic that Site Fishing came into play? That could really mess with Randy’s doomsday predictions about ever tournament going forward being won with ffs, lol.
He is one of the REAL ones Ed. You would really like Christie
Love this content. Met with Jason shortly after THE CLASSIC on a practice day at the St Lawrence. He's a real open guy. We exchanged conversation, He parked the rig under trees and worked on tackle 100 feet from my campsite. Sooo cool.
Thanks for watching and sharing your experience Steve, Jason is truly one of the real ones
Agree, the average angler does not want to hear about the drama. Tech is of more interest to most. Thanks Dave for another great show.
I’m enjoying every one of these interviews. Thanks again for this series! 👍
Glad you like them! Thanks for watching every week
As always Dave thanks for another great pod cast. Enjoyed it
Let Jason know that in Lake Erie the smallies don't like snakes either. In early summer there is a snake pattern. Find the snakes close to the islands you will find big smallies. The key is to make the snake go under water. Then you will see what happens lol. Also thanks for great show every week Dave. Always look forward to Wednesday!!
Hey David, I fish Erie a lot and I have never seen that. Thanks for sharing that story. I appreciate you watching every week
You the man Mercer! Ole Christie had a good buzz going 😁
Thanks very much, it’s always a good conversation with Jason
Would love to hear the podcast from a sponsors mindset! Another great one Mr. Mercer
Thanks Grant, I will definitely try make that episode happen
Great show again Dave!!! Thanks for all the work you put into your podcast and having the great guests and the honesty y’all let out. Jason was incredible and the snake 🐍 stuff was hysterical. Thanks for making hump day great!!
Thanks Jeffrey, I love doing this show. I am thankful the guys trust me enough to be as open and honest as they are
Dave, you’re spot on about fans not wanting to hear all the negativity. Some of the BASS folks throwing venom at MLF and Boyd straying so far from the original Cups that were awesome to watch. The fun is kinda fizzling.
Love listening to Jason. He’s been one of my faves for years. And I’d take you to lunch anytime 😎
He is a great angler and an amazing person.
I missed roll call, Im watching from South Carolina! love the podcast i look forward to it every week.
It’s gonna be hard to hold that level of sympathy and interesting conversations that year… greetings from Austria!
So glad you asked the question about technology and FFS calling it playing basketball with trampolines 😅
Awesome discussion. I'm looking forward to the next one .
Thanks Jim, glad you enjoyed it. Try to make a good episode every week
Great show as always.
Let's Go Dave. Great guest, can't wait to hear this Episode 🙌
Thanks Cody, Hope you enjoyed this one
Sponsorship 101 is a must do podcast for you Mercer!! Especially from the sponsors side, I’ve heard the standard response from the anglers side a ton but I can’t think of when/if I heard it from the other side
Great show Dave, Jason is one of the best. I agree with Jason on the FFS, it’s here to stay so you might as well embrace it. Dave you & Jason are not alone on the fear of snakes, me too my friend.
Thanks Bryan, I think people that are not scared of snakes are the crazy ones 😂
Always a great show, enjoy every one of them.
That’s awesome to hear. Thanks for watching
Frisco Texas here!!! Thanks for all you do!!
Thanks very much for supporting all I am lucky enough to do
I love these pcs and cant wait for the fishing to start.
You and me both! It’s almost time. Thanks for watching Chris
Can't wait to hear "Red Kingdom" as Christie weighs in at the Tulsa Classic. We just booked our flights and rooms.
Oh that will be so awesome. Hope to get to say hi at the Classic. If you get a chance please chase me down and introduce yourself to me
I don't know if I've ever been so glad to see anyone win one as his first classic
Hey Bobby, You are one of many people that felt that way. Thanks for watching and commenting
This was a super solid episode 👌
Thanks very much
Another great show might watch that one again
Thanks so much Playa, hope you enjoy this episode as much the 2nd time. Thanks for the double plays
Awesome show! Thank you 🙏 one of my all time favorite anglers.
The world would be a better place if more pro anglers were also good role models like BMP and JC
Thanks very much & you are 100 % correct
Being in the boat with Jason several times…when he was smashing them and when he was struggling. He has the same demeanor either way…straight up steely focused on every cast and a first class Pro. I can confirm his feeling about snakes…seen it first hand…lol. Also never seen anyone build a spinner bait…on-the-fly…faster than he can.
Awesome show as always Dave!
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks very much
Dave you aint no yankee!!😉 we love ya in alabama another awesome show and im a humper here for another great MERCER show👍
Thanks Slab, I appreciate the support. Proud to hear you are a humper 👊🏻
Pulling for Gussy and Christie at Grand!
That would be awesome
Dave, I would love to help ya figure out how to get some of us fans on the show that might work in the industry or maybe fishing the lower levels. Heck just to chit chat with ya about the fishing world in general.
Not sure what you mean about helping me get fans on the show? Unfortunately there is only so much time in each episode so it’s tough to include more folks than the current guests. As much as I would love to include more folks it’s not that simple
Took me until the 1:24:00 mark to see how special this episode was......I fish out of a jon boat and this dude win Classics, but we both wish we had a better positive outlook. I think that's everything in this sport.
Glad you found a special part in this episode. Thanks for watching
@@factsoffishing Glad I started watching your show, it's made me realize Bass fishing is the greatest professional sport, and the competitors are amazing folks....so thank you, and hope to say the same thing in person one day.
Another great interview!
Thanks Brian, I appreciate you watching and commenting
Always a great guest, and always a great time🤙🏻
Thanks very much.
You're most welcome.
Great one!!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Dude is the ( Ice Man) of fishing talking about no confidence.Great show Dave
Thanks for watching Adam. Jason sure is incredible
Awesome! Love the podcast and the snakes were interesting stories.
Ya it’s not often you hear that side of Christie. Made me feel better about my fear of snakes
Awesome dave.. Christy the man
Thanks he is a good dude
You mentioned Hannon's snake lure saw a video on Y/T dude was fishing a stick bait caught one it had a snake sticking out of it's throat. Good show Dave Christie posts on Wednesday too so I'm head there catch you next week.👍👍👍👍👍
I think I saw pictures of that. Thanks as always William
I think I saw pictures of that. Thanks as always William
Loved one of Christie’s comments not in these words but the jist goes to any job. Make yourself to valuable to fire!!!!
Thanks for watching Shane, Christie nailed that part of the show
There's a scene from "The Office" where Dwight says to Ryan, "Sales will be easier when this whole internet phase is over." I think of that every time someone says that FFS is a phase or fish will adapt to it.
Only time will tell. But one thing for sure is the office is a great show
I would do anything to get to spend a day w him!! Ive followed him his whole careeer an i admire his knowledge
Thanks for watching Pete, Jason Christie is definitely a wealth of knowledge
I can relate to the snakes, i hate them too. I'd have cut the bait off and just thrown something different 🤣
Great talk guys. It’s so crazy nowadays. My favorite Pro Bass Guys are not Tournament Fishermen
Thanks glad you enjoyed it. There are definitely a lot of options out there now days. It’s good you have found a few you like
Just wanted to stroke one the best fishing shows, hope to meet you at Smith Lake this year.
Thanks so much. Please make sure to find me at Smith & introduce yourself to me.
$100 says Jake sheds some tears when he hears Jason say he doesn't win without him.
I would not take that bet 😂
I'm not judging him though, I cry every time I watch someone win a tournament, especially the classic. I'm going to need to take stock in Kleenex whenever Swindle and Hackney win there classics.
Big Christie fan. Great show. I'll be at the classic watchin
Awesome, If you get a chance please track me down to say hello at the Classic
@factsoffishing you got it. I'll be at blast off and on the water day 2 and at the expo and weigh in the last day
@@jcrow530 blast off is usually the best spot to catch me
The snake pattern is a thing on the Great Lakes. Happens in late spring early summer. Big smallies will follow them for some reason.
Crazy how many people are saying that
Christies wife would be a great guest. Sounds like shes full of knowledge.
Thanks Andy, I will definitely try make it happen
Ya know what I mean…..Lol!From the quiet assassin.Super sneaky sniper.
I know what you mean
Dave! Your Tiny snake, bigger snake story was awesome. You are 98% of husbands in that story. JC is spot on…. Not many people like Mr. No Shoulders
My wife was not happy about me sharing that story but I am glad you enjoyed 😂
@@factsoffishing it’s even better now that I know you got busted for it. My better half would’ve done the same.
@@RealMitchRapp 😂😂😂
Yes bring on Shana I’ve talked to her at the events a few times chic for one the day before he won.
I will try make it happen Byron
PS. Dave with that big smallmouth snake pattern how about getting some underwater footage of that to see on facts for fishing😁🎣🐍
Thanks Jason for making Dave seem less odd
That’s not possible. I’m still very odd
Works good for me that folks are catching the ones in the middle, I’m already seeing the bank be really good again, all by myself
🤫 shhhhhhh
We will break the attendance record. Grand is gonna be crazy
Great podcast
Thanks for listening Chris
I don't like how now it boils down to who can use forward facing sonar the best. That is what pro fishing has become.
I hear ya Michael, it’s not my favourite part about tournaments either
Same here man. No legs and can move faster than me over land or water.. Nope Rope
I’ll be there to watch the champ
Awesome, Hope I get to meet you
Nebraska Bud!
Thanks Shane
Watching from Harrison ar
Thanks for watching
The real concern with ffs is not in bass fishing. Its in crappie, walleye fishing. Fish that people harvest. On a local lake its already has a big impact on the crappie population, this according to the DNR. Theres a guy locally who posts on a crappie fb page, he fishes almost everyday and limits it out most of the time. 15 crappie a day. Lets say he limits out 15 days a month. 15 fish a day. Multiply that over a year and thats just one guy. I dont believe its gonna hurt bass fishing in the long run but i believe its gonna devestat the crappie fisheries
All I can say is your the Best
Your the best for watching 👊🏻
👊
👍👍
You forgot Australia 😢😂
Malcolm
Never forget Australia but non of you commented in the roll call that week. Sorry
Haysi virginia here
This was a good one. You know wadda mean?
I hear ya loud and clear
I'm not scared of snakes but idk if i would pull one into my boat to save a trailer. Id say jason aint scared of em as much as he thinks he is lol
He is scared of snakes! Watch his episode of Zona's Awesome Fishing Show 😂😂😂😂
It does not make you a bad guy 😂
@@factsoffishing Correct, it doesnt. Jason is a great guy! The bad guy was the one who used a rod to prank Jason that day! I'm shocked he didn't exit the boat, stage left! 🤣
👍👍
Christie my dude
He sure is a good dude Kevin. Thanks for watching
what a pattern look for snakes 🤣
Who would have thunk 😂
Black mountain North Carolina
What about these old anglers that don't fish anymore but are still making bank off sponsors? Does that exist does it matter? Is that taking up a large part of the pie?
It’s definitely part of the problem with the sport but how do you change it
👍
👊🏻
Downturn in the economy? I had to check the publish date of the video.. maybe just learned a little more about Mercer’s news consumption? Might be more primed for investment in bass than ever with social media
Gentlemen all that most true lovers of the sport, like myself and many younger anglers who aspire to fish for a living want, is for standards to be set that will not be moved so that we know what to practice and get better at so as to perfect our craft. It’s simply not logical to expect any professional, regardless of your profession, to not know exactly what skills or tools you need to be proficient with?
Hey Jesse, I hear what you are saying. However that’s never the case. From day one the sport has kept evolving. It’s not always technology some times it’s techniques but it’s always going to evolve.
He danced around the technology question. Come on, just answer it.
I don’t think he danced around anything I asked him. Thanks for watching and commenting Matt
Texas
One of my favourite states
LMAO
THE SNAKE IS OVER HERE
I gotta say one thing. At least you have an interesting podcast!
Well thanks glad you enjoy it
FFS is no different than when a flasher came out. There are some that will embrace it, learn it and excel at it. No differently than Frittz using a flasher to find fish to deep crank back in the day. Some will excel, some will not. Just a tool as a flasher was when it came out. Then add whatever the fish learn even though they are supposedly dumb.... but an Arig is not the end all be all many thought it would be. Its simply not as productive as it once was.
You know what I mean.you know what I mean 😮
But do you really know what I mean? 😂
What's the drama ? Thanks
