461 - Bass Fishings Rising Star - Nick LeBrun
Today's guest is one of the top anglers competing on the Major League Fishing Bass Pro Tour, but fishing is only part of his story. Nick LeBrun is a devoted Christian, a husband to his wife Jolene, and the proud father of three children.
While he's known for competing at the highest level in professional bass fishing, Nick says the greatest transformation in his life happened away from the water. After years of running from God, he surrendered his life to Christ on July 8, 2018. Since then, he's found a peace, joy, and purpose that has reshaped every area of his life—from his family and his faith to the way he approaches competition.
Today, we're excited to hear about his journey in professional fishing, what it's like competing on the Bass Pro Tour, and how his relationship with Jesus Christ has influenced both his life and career.
Please welcome to the show, Nick LeBrun.

A lifelong lover of God’s creation, Jon is an avid whitetail deer hunter and outdoorsman. His passion for the outdoors has also led to years of involvement in the outdoor industry, including serving on the CVA Pro Staff team. For Jon, hunting is about much more than the pursuit—it’s an opportunity to slow down, enjoy God’s creation, build relationships, and recognize the connection between faith and the outdoors.
Whether preaching from the pulpit, recording weekly devotions with Christian Outdoors, sharing his testimony at a sportsman’s banquet, or simply gathering around a campfire with fellow outdoorsmen, Jon enjoys connecting with people and pointing them toward Jesus. For Jon, faith, family, community, and the outdoors are opportunities to serve, build relationships, and give God glory.
Jon would love to connect with your group for a men’s gathering, sportsman’s banquet, church event, or conversation about faith and the outdoors. He can be reached at jon@christianoutdoors.org.
