About Facts of Fishing

Facts of Fishing ended on March 22, 2016, on the Outdoor Channel.

The show was a sports series that aired from 2008 to 2016, focusing on the realities of fishing. Unlike traditional fishing shows that often appeared quiet and uneventful, Facts of Fishing aimed to showcase what truly happens on the water. Hosted by Dave Mercer, the series captured real-time fishing experiences over the course of a single day, including all the mishaps, memorable moments, and unexpected events that occur during a fishing trip.

Facts of Fishing was a documentary-style program that provided a behind-the-scenes look at fishing adventures. It emphasized authenticity, highlighting the stories behind the catches and the humorous or surprising incidents that happen on the water. The show was first aired in 2008 and completed its ninth season in 2016, offering viewers an unfiltered perspective on fishing life, all presented in high-definition footage. The series was centered around the experiences of host Dave Mercer, who brought a lively and genuine approach to the genre.
