HUGE GAMBLE - Last Tournament of 2020 (Lake Camanche TOC)

[@sirjustis]

Dude!!! That was like watching the Super Bowl :) we are so proud of you, man. You’ve been such a inspiration for so many people who watch your channel. Thank you for allowing us into your world.

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

Thanks man! been a fun ride this year (fishing wise lol). Love sharing the adventure, cheers!

[@MegaNate831]

Ur quickly becoming one of my favorite youtubers and you’re local! Keep it up brotha!

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

thank ya sir!

[@brianmcquinn5897]

Greg Blancard - New World Record holder: the number of times anyone has stood and sat down while fighting one fish in freshwater: 12! (count for yourself starting at 28:22) Congrats on the finish - I can never wait to check TourneyX, but not the same as actually watching you do it! Your consistency this year has been really really impressive!

[@markbright7958]

Best way to start a sunday morning ..: a new Greg's video for breakfast...at lunch time...😄😉👋

[@artkitzmiller957]

I swear when you landed your 19.50 and exhaled your kayak rose 4 inches higher in the water! What a weight lifted off your shoulders! Thanks for taking us along with you.

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

haha it kinda looked like that! I can't imagine how painful it would've been to lose that fish

[@TheMinnowKing]

The edit where you say it can't be any worse and then the next clip is a nest in your spinning reel, I could feel that in my soul.

[@joshuad.3466]

TOP 5, congrats on a solid finish at Lake Comanche, u pulled through once again, adapt and overcome.

[@brandonmartinez5550]

Greg your one of the last good KZbin anglers who still stays true to film from the kayak. Thanks for making great content 👌 my man.

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

Thanks Brandon! Love filming and sharing!

[@myronhigh3527]

You CRUSHED it buddy, for coming back off of 2 days of dead pre-fishing. Congrats and God Bless!!!👍🤗🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@absolutedion7318]

Good fortune at the end with the cull. Well done on beating the lake for the first time. Always a good feeling.

[@fishingwithjett5373]

Congrats on finishing out the year strong. Definitely its been a blessing watching your journey this year fishing. My passion to be a kayak fisherman has definitely grown drastically watching you. Maybe one day I'll finally have a kayak of my own. Stay safe!

[@dylancollins3295]

I finally pulled the trigger and got a native titan 10.5?a couple months ago, and it’s the best thing I’ve ever bought as a high schooler. Find em used and you can get a gem for cheap! Got mine for 1600 and put $300 into it whether it was modding or fixing up and it’s a fishing machine

[@stevefaber3459]

Greg, I have been watching your videos for a couple of months. Really appreciate the way you put them together. I am a 70 yr old kayak(Diablo Amigo) bass fisherman. My dad is 94 and has probably retired from fishing from his kick boat. He loves to see the fish pics I send him. I am seriously thinking of rigging up my kayak with GoPro so I can put some video on a private KZbin channel just for him. I notice that you use a chesty and one on the back of your boat. Please advise me on which GoPros to get and the gear needed to run them.

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

Thank you Steve! I have Hero7 Blacks, both really good but can overheat in the 100+ degree days. I should have the camera equipment linked in the description

This Damian Thao guy seems to always crush it. Nice tourney Greg!

[@cobbs]

Ha! Yeah he has a KZbin channel. I don’t think he’s posted in months though. He doesn’t talk much in his videos which is probably why he doesn’t have too many subscribers, and most of these channels have as much to do w personality than the actual fishing. The dude definitely knows his stuff though. He and Greg have been going back and forth for a few years now. Good friendly rivalry between them. He talked about how he and Greg had set up a collab, but timing didn’t work out. I’d def like to see that done though.

[@BradHouston95]

Gotta love that breath of relief lol! When those fish are glued to the bottom try a blade bait, such an great reaction strike they can't help it.

[@mcbassinfaas7285]

Some of the best time in life. Besides spending time with your family. Is nights like that. Just some brews and chatting about a hobby everyone loves and enjoys. Cherish it boys. Before ya know it we will all be too old for this shit.

[@lizsmith9948]

Congrats on making 4th place & ridding the curse of Camanche. It's nice to see that the shad worm helps you. That's how I caught my 6 pounder on Berryessa. Again, glad to see that your tournament wasn't like your prefishing experience. Good luck with your next tournaments!

[@leviwalker4366]

just want to say love the relationship you have with your buddies priceless

[@miker1961]

Stay and grind it out. We always say don’t leave fish to try and find fish. Wow! You made the right move. That’s why you’re the man!

[@doster59]

That was so exciting to watch! Congratulations, following your gut worked! Rarely does for me, ha ha. Learning so much from watching you fish.

[@lilmanbigfish6647]

Bro that was awesome!!! You are a bad man ✊🏿 I get inspired by ur tournament videos all the time and I’m gonna start doing more videos next year. Congratulations brother

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

thanks boss! i'm a tournament junkie! love that rush of catching fish when it counts for a little something extra!

[@dandorris8531]

Man Greg, I grew up in a small town near by called Ione. I lived there till 50. Moved to Idaho after retiring. I stopped fishing around 16 and restarted right after retiring but here in the new state. Never fished Comanche living there only used it for recreational boating. Make me want to haul my yak back to Cali and do what I missed out on. Congrats on the finish.

[@melvinmariott8609]

I am hoping to get in some kayak tournaments this coming year. Been getting my kayak up an ready to go

[@FishinwithGRAMPS]

Love your vids, found you recently as I just started Yak fishin again and had no idea they did tournaments. Participated in a Heroes on the Water tournament just to see what it was like and got 1st place in my region! Like you, cull fish in the last 30 mins... but mine put me back in the lead! Definitely hooked!

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

nice man, well done!

[@Christopherwilsonfishing]

you are the main reason i am getting into kayak bass fishing i learn so much from your videos thanks and good job on this year hope one day i get to compete against you

[@Spaceshuttlegunner]

Watching your videos stresses me out and makes me want to fish so bad and makes me want to go back out to another tournament.

[@georgebrewster7861]

Way to finish the year on a high note. Congrats on a good year and glad to see the curse of Comanche has been lifted. Hope 2021 is just as generous Tight Lines! 🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

Thanks George! Cheers!

[@curtischavez3]

What a tournament. You showed some real skill in a tough time of the year! Hats off and cannot wait to see more. A true inspiration, gonna share this to everyone I know.

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

thanks Curtis! cheers

[@RiverBasserDrew]

Solid fishing, great finish, great edit...10/10 bro! 🏄🏼‍♂️

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

thanks Drew! Congrats on your awesome year as well man! Hope to bump into ya in 2021!

[@bennysupreme1]

Congrats on your top 5. I must say, you are the only reason I even try to fish a drop shot. It not the easiest to fish from the bank but always trying new things.

[@MadeNewThroughChrist]

Thanks for vids Greg !! Your face on that last fish was priceless 😆💯 Congratulations on your season bro.

[@josephnewman713]

Greg, fantastic year of tournaments. Seems like you were consistently a threat in almost every one of them. You have developed a knack for finding fish even when the bite is not ideal and it's made a big difference in results. I was yelling at my screen this morning though when you kept focusing on the 7lber that was just not about to bite anything. I was like, F- the 23" fish... catch three 16-17" fish. Because of course 1. you could hear me, and 2. I would have been lucky to foul hook a perch all day. Hope to see you raise your game this winter and expand your arsenal so you are ready for 2021.

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

Thanks Joseph! LOL! Will be a fun winter of trying to some new things and fishing!

[@stevenvalenti3722]

Congratulations Greg on breaking the curse and a 4th. Place finish was great for such a tough lake. You really did verygood out there. 🙂

[@michaelsanchez3659]

My heart was racing when you started making those last minute culls! Awesome tournament!

Probably THE best kayak bass fishing channel!

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

Thank ya sir!

[@chriscannon5822]

Greg what a good year you had top 5 in almost all your tournaments!! Love your tournament videos the way you talk to us what your thinking, basically thinking out loud is so cool!

thanks Chris!

We need some “game changer” shirts

[@bmiller8255]

Thank you sir!!! I was so thinking you had it won. But what a great finish. You are a master of dropshotting Greg. Thanks for a great year of videos.

[@FrontlinesBassin]

Excellent job Greg, that lake is so difficult. I fished it for the first time this weekend and worked hard for an 8" and a 2" fish.. Not one keeper.

[@toddwalker5102]

Omg just made my Sunday. I didn't think this vid was gonna drop till Monday morning. Just got some new good good gonna watch the beast Greg B put the hammer down an win this last tournament of the year

[@kikstand2011]

Congrats on an awesome season Greg! Thanks for all the quality content.... Your attention to detail, and going the extra mile with showing baits and lengths in post production, make your channel one of the best ones out there. Keep up the great work! 👍👍👏👏👏

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

Thank ya sir!!

[@austinhocutt2627]

I don’t know if anyone else notices but I study the leader board every tournament and Hong Her is a heck if a fisherman. He is rarely not in the top 5. And greg is always right there competing with him. Great job

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

Kong is a stick and always in contention to win!

[@josephnewman713]

I have noticed that as well. You see a lot of the same names, but Hong seems to not have a "bogey" lake. He is always up there.

[@OptimizedOutdoors]

You worked that spot and got results. Congrats on placing and can't wait for the next! Awesome video as always!!!

[@jeffw3776]

Wow. Great finish. That was really exciting. Congrats. I’m pumped up now for my visit to Lake Berryessa today. It just opened a few days ago. Once again super job!

[@MKultra209]

Good job Greg! Camanche is my home body, and let me tell ya, it can get tough.. you got the right idea though, the spots will move in the pockets and back out to the humps throughout the day. I was tearing them up on the 4 in roboworm in sexy shad in the pockets and crawling a 3.8 Keitec easy shiner in pro blue on top of the humps...congrats on the top 5 finish.

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

Thanks Mark! I def gotta give those smaller keitechs the time of day!
