Once again the generosity never ceases to amaze me. I contacted Dave Mercer who is the host of television’s Facts of Fishing through Twitter where I follow him. The massage read, “Hey Dave, I started new Blog interviewing fishing personalities, could I have five min of your time when you are at Bass Pro Calgary. Thx” Not too long after Dave replied to my message saying, “Sure did you want to meet me at 12:30 up stairs at the BPS offices. That should give us time before my 1 pm seminar”.
A few messages back and forth and we were all set for the interview. I arrived at Bass Pro Shops Calgary, with camera and tri-pod in hand eager to sit and chat with Dave about fishing and his television show. In the interview I stated that “your never to big to give back to the people that follow you” refering to our messages we exchanged and all the messages I see him respond to on his Facebook page and his Blog page. Dave pointed out that it’s “not him giving back, it’s just common courtesy”. I fully agree watching the interview back. I know I respond to all my comments and e-mails on my sites and that is an important part of keeping people interested and coming back year after year. Common courtesy indeed!
I am truly grateful for Dave taking the time out of his busy schedule and talking with me. I’m sure I will get to chat with Dave again sometime in the near future. Please watch as Dave Mercer talks with us about fishing and his television show.
