Wrapping up some paper work at work waiting hoping a new video would drop and make this last hour fly by. Thank you, Greg. You definitely make work more enjoyable.
That Damian dude is always doing well, and yes seems like these days you’re always losing a fish or two. Used to get upset when you did,I’m over that now! Maybe the next one will be clean ,fun is the way to go😊
if i cant spend my morning fishing, watching your newest video while having my coffee is the next best thing. I was cracking up watching that bird get closer and closer in the background
Good afternoon Bro! I'm from Brazil, I always follow your fishing trips! Here we fish a lot for Black Bass and also Snook! I participate in fishing championships here too
Still looked like a great day on the lake, Greg!!! I always enjoy your videos! They’re top notch with the music 🎶 and the drone footage. Oh, and seeing the bear 🐻 was amazing❣️Take care until next time 😊
I showed up just as you guys were all leaving, fished the evening and morning, caught about 40 fish total, half were 14-17 inches. It was tough for sure, lots of dinks. Thank you Greg for another great video!!
New Melones is hands down the best place to fish when you haven’t caught in a while.I love that place, you might catch a catfish during this time too. Always a a pleasure watching Greg Fish. #AoYbaby
Greg, you have been a big inspiration to how I approach tournament fishing and making tournament videos. I'm having a tough season as well. Hope it gets better for both of us!
Like clockwork have my coffee ☕️ ready my chocolate chip cookies 🍪 honestly sat back all Iam missing is a Greg Blanchard video and bam there it is thank you 🙏 😊
Great content as always, and I appreciate the ability to roll with the lows that do happen to everyone in bass fishing... makes me wonder, do ya miss NY yet? LOL. I'll be on Cayuga Friday 🙃
Waiting for my oldest son to arrive, so we can take him to the Sac Airport for an Anime convention in LA - it's fun to see your latest tournament adventure regardless of the outcome. Unless people have done it, they don't understand the stress or what it's like being at the mercy of Nature. You did the best you could under the circumstances; we saw how close you were if you could have caught the 5th bass. That's the reality of tournaments and many of us have been there. (I felt like that on Oroville - lots of rats, but no keepers.) Hang in there - we have faith in you 😊
Hey Greg don't feel so bad buddy it's fishing for you. The spots you went to weren't biting good. And you may have had an off day? But it seems like for me when I get a nice day to go fishing I pretty much always have an off day.😂 So forget about it and move on from that day my friend. Good luck on your next tournament buddy.🙂🍻👍
You are still one hell of an angler AOY last year - 2nd place this year - well until this tourney - you did see a bear though - and I love the line “I don’t know” after that guy asked you how you fish - you will get em next time👊🎣👍
Congrats Damian on the win! Oh shit wait wrong channel😅 a joke with love.. I watch a lot of channels and I'm a boat fisherman, but your channel is amazing top 3 of my favorite.. man did you drag that Shakey with the general? Perfect time of year for that, different look.. as always a great video! You have had some years of flawless tournament fishing, I feel what you're experiencing is more normal, glad to know your human! Happy 4th!
Ahhhh yesssss.... there's nothing better than a beer, on the lake, in your kayak, with a friend, after a day of fishing.. Greg, you are my mentor, my teacher, and my idol. I appreciate you and your content very much..!
I did not realize that this tournament was the same one that Damian Thao won , I commented on Greg's last video to check out Damian's video on that lake because he won, this was the same tournament won't do that again.
I can’t help but think about the behind the scenes of getting b roll shots. Having to stack beers on your camera and then take them off lol. Or when people hike away from their camera, they obviously gotta turn back around and grab it. Lol. Love the vids as always ❤
Greg, Just have fun and fish bro, like you always do. You're going to crush one this year. Camping and fishing with the guy's. Nothing better than that. 😎 🛶 🎣
Bro I feel u regarding this mental thing like 100 %. Had a similar situation end of may. Wasn't even a tournament. But put a lot of effort into something and then screwed up due to sloppy fishing and laziness. I let it ruin my whole day. Always keep in mind u r a great angler and u do not need to proof anything to anyone. Enjoy what the lord gv us. I'll try (and probably fail😅) next time as well. Keep up the good work and if u ever make it to Germany and/or the Netherlands let me know.
Can we talk about how Damian Thao continues to dominate? Maybe it’s time to have him as a guest again Greg. Maybe some of his juju will wear off onto you and bless your AOY chase🤙🏽
Greg thank you for sharing your adventures it is pure joy to watch admire and learn from pre-fishing to the grind of the tournament and get your recap at the end of the day! Your at the top of your game and still your learning something making the adjustments and learning from making mistakes understanding them taking responsibility for what happens in those mistakes and making necessary changes for next time! That’s a sign of a great competitor, so thank you sir tight lines take care and God bless! I forgot to say one last thing are you sporting new water shoes nice change?
Greg ..it appears to me that when you lose your good fish ..happens when you make a sudden change in the direction..like reeling from the right side and suddenly switching to the left ..look at your clips ..perhaps keep pressure..don't change direction suddenly
For me granted history at Melones bigger trailers like the reaction innovations spicy beaver swimming have had great success most of the time they like that kick 🤷♂️
Watching your latest video... great stuff... as usual! I ran into you at the Post Office a few weeks ago and should have approached you and asked at the time for the Wizard's contact info. I've got a PA12 I want to rig up with an NK300. Appreciate your work!
13:25, Oh wow a bear 😮 was camping out there a week or so before this tournament at the CVKF event. Left food out and everything glad a bear didn't show up.
It's weird, to me, seeing tournaments being down by length rather than width, but I understand due to being in a kayak was as photos for length are more reliable.
Something felt different about this video from the beginning. I could tell you weren't completely into it. Hope everything is OK. You still caught some fish and almost had a limit. Looks like you got some new boots. Anyway, thanks for the video.
Dear Greg, (or anyone for that matter, what do you suggest for colder water (specifically) like the PNW, to try and hook up with some bass. I come from the Midwest and it's a different kind fishing out here. Colder water, colder fish, Probably a different bite out here. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. Huge fan, been watching ya for years, ( me and the kiddos) keep up the great content 🐟

cheers!
Saludos desde Uruguay. Muchas gracias por tus videos. Se aprende y se adapta a nuestras oportunidades. Buenas pescas!
Oh yes! Always good to start watching Greg’s video before I start working. Makes me want to call in sick to go fishing tomorrow 😅
That Damian dude is always doing well, and yes seems like these days you’re always losing a fish or two. Used to get upset when you did,I’m over that now! Maybe the next one will be clean ,fun is the way to go😊

haha that was the first one that actually stuck around for a bit
Good afternoon Bro! I'm from Brazil, I always follow your fishing trips!
Here we fish a lot for Black Bass and also Snook!
I participate in fishing championships here too
Greg, can completely relate! Been my year for losing key fish. All a learning experience 👍. Thanks for sharing dude!
Still looked like a great day on the lake, Greg!!! I always enjoy your videos! They’re top notch with the music 🎶 and the drone footage. Oh, and seeing the bear 🐻 was amazing❣️Take care until next time 😊
Damian is killing it. Good job though Greg. You lose some, you win some. Keep grinding!!
damian and a few other guys are on a different level this year! im just trying to keep up lol
I showed up just as you guys were all leaving, fished the evening and morning, caught about 40 fish total, half were 14-17 inches. It was tough for sure, lots of dinks. Thank you Greg for another great video!!
you crushed it compared to us!

Adaptability is the name of the game and the source of frustration. Nice looking lake and fishing with the guys, good times.
Love the intro showing us how you load up the yak. Good luck, even it's not your goal to get AOY, i hope you get it!
Great content as always, and I appreciate the ability to roll with the lows that do happen to everyone in bass fishing... makes me wonder, do ya miss NY yet? LOL. I'll be on Cayuga Friday 🙃
What a beautiful lake when it full.
Not skipping leg day in the gym. Rockin the shorts!!
almost as rare as a hat moment! 🤣
Dude idk why but that music choice for that unloading b-roll was a total vibe.
Dang Greg ,that last fish that last fish wow. It was the New York trip it through you off man. Oh well can't wait for the next one man.
Tournament nerves are getting to me this year! Live and learn!
Waiting for my oldest son to arrive, so we can take him to the Sac Airport for an Anime convention in LA - it's fun to see your latest tournament adventure regardless of the outcome. Unless people have done it, they don't understand the stress or what it's like being at the mercy of Nature.

Hang in there - we have faith in you 😊
New boot goofin!
Cool ice chest shot! I like that you are creative with your productions.
You just had to mention the box of tissues “unused” lmfao 😂 . Always looking forward to your uploads!
🤣🤣🤣
Don’t lose the fun in fishing. I know there’s alot of pressure on you but you get to fish every day. Thanks for all the content dude!
well said!
@@GregBlanchardFishing love ya dude! You have impacted my live more than you ever will know. Every one goes through rough patches in fishing.
Coffee and Greg in the morning , nothing better
Hey Greg don't feel so bad buddy it's fishing for you. The spots you went to weren't biting good. And you may have had an off day? But it seems like for me when I get a nice day to go fishing I pretty much always have an off day.😂 So forget about it and move on from that day my friend. Good luck on your next tournament buddy.🙂🍻👍
Glad to see Melones so full! Been way too long since it has been this nice!
lake looks great!
👍✌️ good luck on AOY soldier.. ✌️👍
You are still one hell of an angler AOY last year - 2nd place this year - well until this tourney - you did see a bear though - and I love the line “I don’t know” after that guy asked you how you fish - you will get em next time👊🎣👍
Good morning fellas!
Loving these vids bro keep going!
Man I was in the bass tournament before you guys. I struggled and thought it was just me. Lots of dinks.
really tough bite on Fri/Sat at least for some decent fish
Schools that'll win the tournament can be found on the deeper main lake ledges.
agreed
Awesome freaking video Greg! Always a good time watching.
Give yourself credit Greg you have been grinding and it doesn’t go unnoticed 💪🏾💯
Awesome video man 🔥🔥🎣🎣

I did not realize that this tournament was the same one that Damian Thao won , I commented on Greg's last video to check out Damian's video on that lake because he won, this was the same tournament won't do that again.
I'm going to go fishing there next week. Love Melones!

Box of tissues, unused 😂
I love this video
Did we just get ‘iced’ by Greg? Best day ever. 😂
virtual icing🤣🤣🤣
Tissues, unused 😂
Can we talk about how Damian Thao continues to dominate? Maybe it’s time to have him as a guest again Greg. Maybe some of his juju will wear off onto you and bless your AOY chase🤙🏽
Great video and always keeping it real we have bad days on the water the bite has been shut down for a week or so here
"Box of tissues is still there. Unused." 😂
I watch all the ads 100%
lol... i got you greg
haha thank you sir
I can't believe that Greg stuck me in an ice chest... Thought we were cool bro... 👀🤣
😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣

Been waiting for this one 🎉
Damien Thao kills it all the time...
FFS.!!
@@davidfriedman6126What's that?
Greg ..it appears to me that when you lose your good fish ..happens when you make a sudden change in the direction..like reeling from the right side and suddenly switching to the left ..look at your clips ..perhaps keep pressure..don't change direction suddenly
I have a friend who fished melones for 30 years. He used nothing but green pumpkin.
For me granted history at Melones bigger trailers like the reaction innovations spicy beaver swimming have had great success most of the time they like that kick 🤷♂️
Watching your latest video... great stuff... as usual! I ran into you at the Post Office a few weeks ago and should have approached you and asked at the time for the Wizard's contact info. I've got a PA12 I want to rig up with an NK300. Appreciate your work!
Melones is such a good bite right now Shakeyhead over 20+ in one day
I always do well with a craw color crank thru the mud line .. each one i catch was 16'' & over
Damian Thao has that lake dialed in - hasn't he won in two times in a row?
Caught a 15 pound Catfish while trolling for trout out there 💪
Ya cremated that try tip. lol
Greg, I love to watch and learn from watch you fish. Thank you. I would love to know where you got that kayak trailer from or the brand.
Solid outing GB! Seems like even though you're not 1st every tournament, you're still killing it in the ROI, so that's a win right? Thank you sir!
13:25, Oh wow a bear 😮 was camping out there a week or so before this tournament at the CVKF event. Left food out and everything glad a bear didn't show up.
It's weird, to me, seeing tournaments being down by length rather than width, but I understand due to being in a kayak was as photos for length are more reliable.
Ha ha. I was just wondering yesterday if you ever enjoy a brew out fishing.
Bet
Something felt different about this video from the beginning. I could tell you weren't completely into it. Hope everything is OK. You still caught some fish and almost had a limit. Looks like you got some new boots. Anyway, thanks for the video.
Like watching your TH-cam channel. I also use left handed reels on all my rods. Why switch hands to reel and set the hook ??? Tight lines.
When I grow up I wanna be like you
Is it worth getting a pedal kayak if I plan on using it in the sf bay or should I just save up and get a motorized one
Dear Greg, (or anyone for that matter, what do you suggest for colder water (specifically) like the PNW, to try and hook up with some bass. I come from the Midwest and it's a different kind fishing out here. Colder water, colder fish, Probably a different bite out here. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. Huge fan, been watching ya for years, ( me and the kiddos) keep up the great content 🐟
What is the table you have your kayak on in the beginning of this video before you load it on your truck?
Damian again 😅
What trailer is that? How does it feel on longer hauls?
Greg - What's your graph/transducer setup there? As far as the mounting system. I'd like to duplicate that for my kayak.
Random question, do you think messing with your drag while you're reeling in fish is causing you to lose them?
Question on your setup! How’s it without the TM out on the bow? Is it really needed I ask cause I see you don’t have one
Next 1. U will win
13:25 that guy is probably dying with all the heat going on today, what was it 105 degrees then plus all that fur?
More than half didn’t catch a limit…😮
Melones fish don't bite as good on the weekends! lol
Yall needa start keeping more bass, all the ctch&rlse is why it’s all 12-15 Inchers
Are those the new Aftco boots? Also I’ve noticed the drag on your abu bait casters sounds terrible. Do you not like Shimano or even daiwa.
3rd to the key!!!! 😢
Who's window got busted out
Dutch, beer should be the last thing you need to drink sir. Gb did you make sure he was drinking water?
Greg have you ever fished Trinity Lake?
Iv always been curious how you are able to have so much time to do what you love, care to share your secret?
Did your truck get broken into?
