John Cox and Byron Velvick on MERCER-212

from MERCER-The Awkwardly Honest Fishing Podcast · host Dave Mercer

John Cox is a pro angling anomaly. At a time where competitive fishing is dominated by technology he does not even have forward facing sonar on his boat. Cox is widely considered one of the greatest natural anglers in the history of the sport. This week he joins the show to talk about why he sees technology as a distraction, fishing dreams, shooting Bigfoot, finding fish and so much more. But that’s not all, then we are joined by former bachelor, Bassmaster Classic qualifier and 3 time Bassmaster winner Byron Velvick, with his first Byron Bunker segment.
