“My whole family fished, you know what I mean… I started when I was like five. I remember the details of the first day I went, that’s how much of a fisherman I am. I remember hooking my mom’s foot by mistake. I actually remember down to the color of the rag she put on her foot,” recounted Iverson in the video. “We used to fish off some rocks in my neighborhood or I would fish off the pier or something like that, but I didn’t get on a boat until I got in the league.” – Bubba Chuck

“I know how people say that they do it to get away, to clear their mind,” continued Iverson. “But I’m just so much of a fisherman that it was just – I just love doing it, you know what I mean? I just love it, man. I just love the sport of it.”- Bubba Chuck
