I don’t even watch other fishing channels anymore because there is too bs but GB always delivers. I have been watching for years. The new OG show is probably the most genuine fishing show on YT. Also, get way to evolve the channel! Also, I love this episode because you get out of your comfort zone and fishing big baits only! I want more!!! We won’t be mad if you skunk but when you break your PB we will be able to share the experience! S/O to the crew too!
All right Greg after uploading my first video on TH-cam unrelated to fishing but the amount of effort that goes into everything, from title,l to thumbnail, to the first 30 seconds, to the catch, to the hook, to the loop, my God sir you do a great job. You really do tell a story, and I think that's why you capture the audience you do, and they're so loyal. Kudos👏👏👏👏 tight lines
Just an off the wall question?? How would you feel about selling your slayer max in NY.. I would definitely take the 5-Hour car drive from Boston @GregBlanchardFishing
Another great never disappointed OG show video Greg I think most people will admit you provide high quality video content and have locked in to your channel as the best out there. Whether your catching fish or get skunked your attitude is so contagious and refreshing with all the negative craziness in the world is so needed. Trying new stuff focusing on it is developing character in an anglers arsenal and not always going to the same old techniques only makes us grow stronger. Keep up the great work guys tight lines take care and God bless.
You need to put O on the payroll and make him a permanent part of G.B fishing show. Always love seeing you guys all together. Thanks for the keep putting out great content.
Big bait episode!!! YESSS!! I've been waiting for one of these, I hope you do a bunch more. Heck ya Greg. I'm one of those guys that throws big baits almost exclusively.
Hey GB, I’m not an experienced swim baiter at all. But, an OG swim baiter I know told me when you are fishing those, don’t set the hook on bites. Said a lot of times they are just smacking it to try to kill or stun it, and eventually they just get pissed and eat it. He waits until the rod starts really loading before he sets the hook. Hope that helps
Matt from tacticalbassin talks about it in detail. I don't swimbait fish, but I've caught multiple bass near 10lbs and one 12lb out of that lake. I never catch numbers, but the spring was always good for me.
The OG show is a go to pick me up. Had a bad day or rough week? I'll make a playlist of all the OG episodes. Thanks, Greg for putting together some great videos.
Another enjoyable OG Show even though the bass were not fully cooperating. O came through with two good size bass!! Enjoyed the content as always...thanks Greg and Obedie!!
I loved this❣️❤️ I was smiling through the whole show❣️❣️ it so hard to not enjoy these OG challenges with Obie smiling and cutting up all the time❣️💘 I bet there can absolutely be no bad days fishing with Obie on the water with you❗️🥰 Greg, if you want to get to throwing the swimbait all day why don’t you just do Clear Lake? When I go there I’m just as tempted to throw the big swimmies all day, and rarely get tempted to throw anything else just because I know the quality of bass that’s bound to hit at any time!
Great video Greg! Love watching you and OB in this series! I think theres a website that tells you stock plants but they wont say the exact date just week windows... i used to use it down in so cal. happy new year!
Mr. B when you throw the big stuff you absolutely have to change your mindset. Can't rush the big stuff. I'm from the Philadelphia area and the big baits have been my main way to fish for 12 yrs. Commit and give them the wood.
Hahaha another great show! Hey you need to recruit those Osprey to help th cause....talk to the commish and see what he says. Smiles for miles! DOOOOOOP!!!
Greg another great trip bro. You could've caught two 6lb beauties you just never know. You should carry a few big baits every trip, on board. I always do, just to practice. Looking forward to the next trip. 😎 💯 🎣
~🎣The OG Show🍻~ The Good, The Bad, The Ugly. I’d say today was a decent day. Maybe on your next big bait day, you should bring three smaller baits BUT you have to wait 2hrs before using one and an hour more for every bait after that.
Keep putting the time in brotha this is the video ive wanted for awhile lol, I've found in the past few years throwing big softies it's all ergonomics man. When you feel that bite it's so hard but you have to pause for a couple seconds almost similar to a frog and let them get that bait a little deeper. I also got into the bass mafia loaded zaldangerous swimbait last year and absolutely crushed them on the 6 and 7 inch!
Thanks for another OG adventure! I live near that little reservoir but have never fished it. Wonder what your electronics revealed…bait balls, crappie schools, dispersed trout, etc? In other words, what did your sonar tell you about that lake?
Hello Greg / East Bay (bigger trout) and CDFW (smaller trout) both tell you the week they are planting but not the day - East Bay has just updated their planting schedule for the month of January - go get em👍🎣👊
Nice day to go fishing - you too are a great fishing duo - keep the series going- You should try Quarry - I swear I saw something big chasing trout after the last plant a week ago. 👍🎣👊
When it shines, it shines. When it rains, it rains 🥲 not all trips are rainbows. Keep the og show going! I want to see the next episode at Bethany reservoir
That Explorer Glide is an awesome glidebait. Greg, you’re a better angler than me but i know swimbaits. You need to slow slow slow way down your retrieve.
Where I am at there is not a schedule of trout planting but there is generally a report afterwards of all the places that were stocked that year. Here it is a pretty regular schedule with some lakes being stocked yearly and other lakes/species being stocked every second year.
Good stuff fellas 👍🏼 six inch swimbaits got me into the game.Im hooked now, really gotta keep yourself from "swinging" on the fish.I do better sweep setting and being patient after initial thump .
I fish Contra Loma from time to time living 11 minutes from it. The fishing is very very tough. But that’s usually because there is a lot of big bass in the reservoir. But they also get pressured a lot. Contra Loma is probably one of the toughest places to catch Bass. You’d likely have more success at Los Vaqueros Reservoir. I had more success at community ponds than Contra Loma. Great video as always. Definitely was a challenge!
If you are looking for a swim bait lake, ya'll might consider fishing Shadow Cliffs. I grew up fishing the front lake and lost a few trout to some giant bass. The back lakes is killer too.
Greg.. open invitation to you to come fish for some shoal bass here in middle Georgia this coming summer.. either the Flint river or the ocmulgee river.. or we can hit the Oconee river for some largies, spots, and althama bass. .. i have 4 other buddies and we love our river trips.!! love your content bro.!!
I know it’s not open yet but it’d be cool to see you guys tackle San Pab when it does. Caught my PB of 6# there this past June, and when the water is up there’s a lot of fishy areas near the shoreline.
I don’t even watch other fishing channels anymore because there is too bs but GB always delivers. I have been watching for years. The new OG show is probably the most genuine fishing show on YT. Also, get way to evolve the channel!

Thanks Shaun! This one was a fun one to make despite the tough fishing. Gained some confidence in the big baits tho just by throwing them all day!

Thank you Mark! It's definitely a lot of work but I really enjoy making these

This one is a top favorite for sure. The dedication to commit to the swimbait did it for me. Can’t wait to see more.
It’s too funny seeing Mr. O out there in person the day you post the video. Tough spot to fish, Good stuff. Keep up the good stuff.
Big bait episode!!! YESSS!! I've been waiting for one of these, I hope you do a bunch more. Heck ya Greg.

Nice job GB sticking with the bigs. I think you did the right thing going deeper. Always fun watching you and O. 😊
To hear a “DOOOOOOP” on the water has got to be equivalent to hearing an elk bugle in the CDA woods
😂😂😂

Stay safe in California Greg. Regardless of where you are. Always a great break from reality watching you fish
Thanks man, luckily I'm way up in Northern CA but prayers for those down south affected
The OG show is a go to pick me up. Had a bad day or rough week? I'll make a playlist of all the OG episodes. Thanks, Greg for putting together some great videos.
That was the definition of a challenge. You and Mr O always make it interesting and fun no matter what the results. Thank you for keepin it real.
Dude. What a solid thing of a series!
Another enjoyable OG Show even though the bass were not fully cooperating. O came through with two good size bass!! Enjoyed the content as always...thanks Greg and Obedie!!
24:38 that muffin tizzop 😂
😂😂😂
Glad to see you spending a day grinding the big baits.💪🏼
despite just the one bite, I definitely gained some confidence!
Great video. Definitely love O talking about some of fishing history.
Caught you on a TV commercial yesterday! Sweet!
Would be amazing to see the OG show on Cayuga this spring!
👀
Good stuff as always boys! I always look forward to the OG Challenge!!
The Baitsanity glide is better than most others of its style. Glides amazingly well.
🙏👏🙌
Another video filled with JOY. Great try with the big swimbaits, they call it fishing not catching huh... haha. Thanks for sharing.
Always fun to watch the OG challenge!
Morning guys! I vote for an OG Challenge at Salt Springs Valley Reservoir! I'm surprised you haven't gone back there since that tournament actually.
I loved this❣️❤️ I was smiling through the whole show❣️❣️ it so hard to not enjoy these OG challenges with Obie smiling and cutting up all the time❣️💘 I bet there can absolutely be no bad days fishing with Obie on the water with you❗️🥰 Greg, if you want to get to throwing the swimbait all day why don’t you just do Clear Lake?

Creepy
OG always makes me laugh in my coffee.
Greg... you're awesome for keeping up with the content during this winter. Hopefully the CA fires are far away from you. Stay safe man.
Thanks man! I'm lucky to be able to fish year round out here!
Next OG Challenge at Clearlake! GB tossing swimbaits and glides! 💪
Great video Greg! Love watching you and OB in this series! I think theres a website that tells you stock plants but they wont say the exact date just week windows... i used to use it down in so cal. happy new year!

Winter got to be the most challenging time of the year but the most rewarding
Hahaha another great show! Hey you need to recruit those Osprey to help th cause....talk to the commish and see what he says. Smiles for miles! DOOOOOOP!!!
I’ve fishes that lake for 25 years. Younders are in certain pockets during the winter. They love a Hudd.
Run it back boys 🎣
I need an positive affirmations app voiced by O. Man is the most positive human on the planet.
Greg another great trip bro. You could've caught two 6lb beauties you just never know. You should carry a few big baits every trip, on board. I always do, just to practice. Looking forward to the next trip. 😎 💯 🎣
Love the OG challenges 👊😎
That's right baby! Swimbait season time for those belly shirts 😂😂
~🎣The OG Show🍻~
The Good, The Bad, The Ugly.
I’d say today was a decent day. Maybe on your next big bait day, you should bring three smaller baits BUT you have to wait 2hrs before using one and an hour more for every bait after that.
I grew up fishing for trout at contra loma. This is awesome
the 2 mash up bro!! love it!!!!
Way to go you guys. Lots of fun.
Y’all know what mf time it is DOOOP🎣 pure comedy 🤣
Bring the Shaquille O'Neil s out! Had me rollin 😂
😂😂😂
Can’t wait to see a “Glide Bait Only” Vid for Delta Stripers 😉
Keep it going
Playaz
Hell YEAH!!! I love big bait Greg! We need more of this in 2025!
Hairs on the back of my neck went “AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!” When I saw that hook go into O’s finger. Yikes!!
you take the good... you take the bad... you take em both and there you have... The facts of life! Dooooop!!!!!
Gotta love the grind to fish that pond… but they are definitely in there. Hope to run into you guys there sometime. God bless.
Got my coffee and I'm ready let's do this!!! ☕
O saying Greg brought out the Shaquille O’Neals sent me 😂

That baitsanity glide is my colorway! Great choice for trophy fish. Try it if you ever target big stripers and thank you for the support!
Love these challenges! See ya guys on Jan 18th!
Hello Greg / East Bay (bigger trout) and CDFW (smaller trout) both tell you the week they are planting but not the day - East Bay has just updated their planting schedule for the month of January - go get em👍🎣👊
Yeah, I was gonna comment the same. Plant schedules are on CDFW and ebmud websites
Hey GB hope you and the CA fishing community are staying safe with all the wildfires
Nice day to go fishing - you too are a great fishing duo - keep the series going- You should try Quarry - I swear I saw something big chasing trout after the last plant a week ago. 👍🎣👊
Well guys you gave it the old collage try , Very enjoyable next time will be much better Stay Safe 😎👍
Nothing like attempting to break a record with a hand tied behind your back. At least you didn't give up. I can't wait until the next challenge.
The next OG challenge, ya should take it to Rancho Seco
Your next challenge should be OG throwing the big baits and you fish open.
When it shines, it shines. When it rains, it rains 🥲 not all trips are rainbows. Keep the og show going! I want to see the next episode at Bethany reservoir
Love the big baits only videos!
Man I gotta come up to Clear lake an do one!
@ Absolutely!!!
I wanna see the OG show hit up bass lake, Hensley, or Eastman
O.g. challenge orange lake florida! Come catch some moby's!!!😅
would be dope to see a big bait big fish series this year keep it up
You guys should go to new hogan lake next.
That Explorer Glide is an awesome glidebait. Greg, you’re a better angler than me but i know swimbaits. You need to slow slow slow way down your retrieve.
For sure! gotta keep grinding with them and continue to get comfortable
@ you have taught me so much about kayak fishing. I appreciate it!
Another one . Thank you Greg
Where I am at there is not a schedule of trout planting but there is generally a report afterwards of all the places that were stocked that year. Here it is a pretty regular schedule with some lakes being stocked yearly and other lakes/species being stocked every second year.
The OG Ocho show.
Yooo the Peter Pan Crew!
😂😂😂
Good stuff fellas 👍🏼 six inch swimbaits got me into the game.Im hooked now, really gotta keep yourself from "swinging" on the fish.I do better sweep setting and being patient after initial thump .
Greg,
I have seen O use that particular punch bait in other videos… what is it? And how can we get it?
Thanks for another great video challenge!
I think O is still working out the prototypes but give him a shout on IG and he might be able to send you some
@@GregBlanchardFishing
Thanks for the reply… love your videos and it really is awesome that you reply back as much as possible.

My PB came on a trash fish. Love those things
If you are looking for a swim bait lake, ya'll might consider fishing Shadow Cliffs. I grew up fishing the front lake and lost a few trout to some giant bass. The back lakes is killer too.
I would actually buy a shirt if O made a shirt with a bass on it saying magic time.
Have a feeling Greg is going to have a big bait giveaway contest soon 😂
I have a few extras now😂
This is the title I like to seee “big baits only”😤
Gotta get you out here man! the commish said you can throw big baits all day for bonus pounds😂
I have a lake just like that in southern Oregon will definitely try the big baits more.
O caught something on the A rig before the first cast he's THAT GOOD
Greg, you going back to tradition fishing real quick 😂😂😂😂
Another very good video!
What was that stuff Obedie smeared on the punch bait? Looked like vasoline?
smelly Jelly
This is my local lake,ive grew up fishing it, it's always been a tough lake! but ive had good days. more tough than good days lol.
Greg.. open invitation to you to come fish for some shoal bass here in middle Georgia this coming summer.. either the Flint river or the ocmulgee river.. or we can hit the Oconee river for some largies, spots, and althama bass. .. i have 4 other buddies and we love our river trips.!! love your content bro.!!
Enjoy the channel. Can OBD give some tips on how he straps the Kayak down to the SUV?
So excited to try clear lake here in a few months
FYI: East Bay Regional Parks does their own trout plants (separate from DFW plants) and you can look those up 😉
I know it’s not open yet but it’d be cool to see you guys tackle San Pab when it does. Caught my PB of 6# there this past June, and when the water is up there’s a lot of fishy areas near the shoreline.
Gotta try rancho seco!
This is a Thang for sure. Keep it going! 🤙
You should try the bass mafia brands they're pretty nice too!
They have become my go to soft swimbait. Looking forward to a larger size coming out
Yes sir good stuff .
