On the this episode of Boats and Pros, Luke Dunkin takes legendary pro angler Jason Christie out on the lake in a vintage Ranger bass boat, and talks pro fishing, being a girl Dad, and more! #bassfishing #fishing #boatsandpros
Ok Luke, that was the greatest interview ever, half the time I had goosebumps and the other I was tearing up, Jason is i great angler and an awesome guy, no one deserves to b a critic of guys doing what they were born to do! Absolutely loved this interview!!!!!
Oklahoma isn't talked about as a state full of elite fishermen, but there are some hammers that come out of Oklahoma. I've always said, if you can catch fish in Oklahoma, you can catch fish anywhere. Another awesome video sir!!
I’d pay good money to see the reel Jason Christie with his dull rusty broadheads and the wannabe Jason Christy in a deer costume. How hilarious would that be!! 😂🦌
Love it! Jason's statement "I done it my way" is exactly what I needed to hear. Fishing is the only sport I've ever been competitive at and I'm tough on myself so it's great to hear how he overcame the obstacles. I run a 96 ProCraft bc I cant afford to buy a new boat so i appreciate these vids a lot and the growl of my 200efi lol. Keep em coming Luke!
Bought my first Ranger in 1990, it was a 391 red man all American , loved the boat, only thing with this model is it likes to grab and spin you if you didn’t trim down for a turn which could throw you out of the boat!
I fish out of a 1991 Ranger 361V. Has the original carpet motor and factory extended flipping deck. It has the original Mercury 150 XR4 and the old girl still gets me 62mph GPS with all my gear.
The 300 series Rangers are as classic bassboat as there ever will be. From 17-19ft they had it covered. And the guys that have taken care of them still have a fully capable and solid tournament boat. And no need to leave it hooked while backing down, unless it's a ridiculously steep ramp that's sliding the truck tires.
Luke. Great series and I hope you pick it back up. I do have a suggestion for ya. Do a real "OG" Boats and Pros with Bobby Murray. I happen to know a person who owns a 1971 Rebel bass boat, one that was used in the first Classic (Boat 17). Let me know if you're interested and thanks again for the great content.
I got keyed on to this series when you mentioned it fishing with Ben Milliken. I'm so glad I took the time to find it, pure gold! Great job, Luke! Keep 'em coming, please!
The one guy I want to meet. Thank you Luke for helping us get to know Jason Christie. From what i can see, he is what I thought he was. A hard working family man who does it "His Way".
This is one of my favorite Boat’s and Pros! I love Jason! He is now and has been for a long time, one of my favorites!!!!! Jason is a stand up, great person. I would love to meet him one day
Just traded in a 1998 R82 for a Z518L. My R82 had the deck extension which was great. The main reason I decided to upgrade was due to having a Johnson Ficht 150 one. Blew 2 power heads the first year I had and OMC gave me a new 2000 power head which ran flawless. Now that I retired didn’t want to push my luck. I also upgraded the trailer to the Comanche. The boat and trailer looked like they came off the showroom floor when I traded. Lot of memories in that boat.
Dude I didn’t think it could get better but this was the best episode yet! Loved the boat love how you describe the boat in the beginning. And of course Jason is a great guest and an awesome human being! Keep it up bud you are killing it!
Best B&P yet!! When he started telling the story about his daughters homerun, I knew how it ended. As a girl dad,,I coached my daughters softball team. I would have died if I missed one of her homeruns!!!
I'm rolling in a 96 487vs same color. My dad had a 73 he owned over 30 years. You pay a little more for these boats. If taken care of , they will last a lifetime.
Boats and Pros is what professional bass fishing has needed for so long. Not an in-depth interview about products, or performances. Simply a one on one conversation to get to know some of the greatest talents in the world. No sponsor junk, promotional BS or selling just 2 good ol boys shooting the bull!
Super cool interview man. Christie is a legend in my book. My father passed a few years back but he reminds me of my father so much. Jason is Jason, that's what makes Jason. #NeverChange
Awesome video!!!! Great interview with Jason Christie with the ie. I really like these because it shows more about the pros than just fishing. Thank you for doing these.
Dunkin has a crush on jason. Great interview, I think that's the most I've ever seen Christie talk!! Such a laid back humble dude, can't wait to see him back with bass soon!!
Yeah watching this episode and listening to Jason talk about his girls kinda choked me up lol. I got 2 little girls myself and dread the day they walk down the stairs grown up. Awsome job yet again!
These just keep getting better and better. Getting to know our idols, hero's even, in the fishing world like their just another outdoorsman like the rest of us. Awesome video Luke..
This is the best series out there! Next boat and pro should be a Jon boat with Christy with a Y 😉 Keep it up, i can't wait for the next one! Be safe and God Bless!
This series is amazing, hear these pros talk about their beginnings is awesome. Jason is a great fisherman and an even better guy. Thank you both for doing this.
