Mr. Greg . . . Enjoyed joining you on this series and glad you did good enough to still be in contention for AOY . . . SWEET 👊! Though your game plan wasn't able to gain seperation from the pack, it definitely didn't hurt you. I feel, if the tourney pressure wasn't present, this would have been a really fun day of bass fishing. Always good to see you with your crew and CONTRATs to Mr. Obedie and Mr. Alden on Big Fish catches. Looking forward to the last tourney vid on Berryessa and will be rootin' for you and your crew 🤙!

You'll get'em next time . God bless.

I would agree that your hookset is hard that it sometimes costs you some fish. It not only can burst their mouth open but it is impossible to maintain that amount of pressure so slack will develop in the line. That being said, you are an amazing fisherman and one of my favorites to watch fish.
