The coolest thing about your videos is actually seeing you grow and get better as a fisherman. Your spending time on the water has paid off in a big way. Congratulations. You've worked hard to become as good an angler as you are. You've really earned it. It's inspiring to see your hard work pay off. It's cool to see you get excited about your catches. It's refreshing to see the unbridled joy you show when you catch a good one. Keep up the great work, Greg. It's fun watching you continue to get better and better. We should all aspire to be as committed to the sport as you are.

[@devinhoyt8396]

It's the easiest way to do it in a kayak 8 and 6 pound test is what I use and I'd boat flip that bagger fish also you ain't grabbing that thing on the side of a kayak, well I guess anything's possible but it's best to flip all fish in the boat or kayak

BIGGEST 8.11 I'VE EVER SEEN, DAMN GOOD FISH MAN💪

[@kito1san]

Yea.. That fish had a potential to be way bigger. Look at its head compare to the body. If it had eat out and fill in its space compare to its head, it would have been like a 9 or low 10 pounder.

[@AidanFordFishing]

@@kito1san That fish is well over 10lbs maybe even 11lbs in the spring I guarantee it.

Bet that thing is an easy 10 with a full belly. Those shoulders were no joke. Built like a offensive linement. Sick catch

[@F1Hopeful]

Excellent excellent excellent video Greg!!!! It encapsulates so many aspects of fishing!!!! You pulled success out of the jaws of defeat. You adapted on the fly; one of the things that differentiates a truly excellent fisherman from a good one. Plan A didn’t work, you improvised successfully. And what can be said about that run of big tankers!!!!!!! Wow man. Shocked the poop pit of me!!!! At any rate, congratulations. Reminds me of moments both my brother and I have had on the water. It’s moments like these that keeps us coming back for more. I particularly like the John Buchanan quote on fishing, “ The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is illusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope.” Your video has this in spades. Thanks for sharing bud. Made the week start off on a bright and uplifting note!! Be well.

[@CrystalHookFishing]

Greg you are still my all-time favorite channel, TV show, Movie. #1 Source of entertainment. CONGRATS ON THE PB!!!!

I got up about an hour ago and I’m about to head to a new spot to go take the yak fishing that’s about 30 minutes away so what better way to take up some time than a new Greg video

[@xyzman001]

And that is why we fish tournaments! The stress, the feeling of weight off our shoulders when landing a huge fish in a tournament and still trying to get limit before a set time! Then finding you got the W even though u didnt catch all monsters. All the above based on your own strategy n plan makes it all worth while. This is the true essence of tournament fishing and why its so rewarding atleast to me. Congrats on the W!

[@anthonyvespia6662]

Congrats Greg!! This summer I'll enter my 1st 3 tournamants. I kayaked and fished all summer, but alot more boating, because I put my new motor on. My lake is 900 acres of water. So the new 2.5 Suzuki is awsome, my kayak is also 10ft, that is the size I wanted. But working on her all winter. I've learned many thing's from you. Especially to pre-fish. But just to slowly get better and better, is the best part. And fishing out on the water, is true therapy. Great job bro, you always fish hard. All of us rookie anglers appreciate the things you share. God bless..

[@DubH46]

Awesome job! Grinding out a limit, with a new PB is crazy! Congrats on both the win, and the new PB!

[@NT4XT]

Phuuhhh King awe sum. Mr. Blanchard, sir - this was about as fun as the UGA Notre Dame game, and cost a lot less time. Love the whole of it, all of it, especially your thoughts and mental state progressions. Plus the action/physicality. Pedal, pull the drive, drop the drive, phucket where's my paddle is best here, and wow. This video captured it all. Living vicariously. Thanks, man. Stay excellent. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@meldyang_kayak]

What’s crazy was i was at my tournament when one of my buddies said, “did you see Greg Blanchards DD”? I was like, “No Way!!!” 24.75” congrats! Thanks to Native Watercraft for posting up the pic on FB.

Just seeing this now. Man, what a rush of an experience!

[@greg-leftguntersville-ridd9748]

I remember when you posted the pb on Instagram. Didn’t realize it was during a tourney. Congrats 👏👏

[@captainggttv3243]

Greg -Left Guntersville- Riddle what I don’t get is how this tournament works there’s no live well and no official weigh stations and that fish he caught after the 8lber he didn’t even weigh how do you win? Do the judges just take your word and trust your not lying?

[@greg-leftguntersville-ridd9748]

Johnredcorn 1 In general, kayak tournaments are based fish length and not weight. Fish are measured and photographed on an approved measuring device with a unique identifier. The identifier is released the morning of the tournament so people can’t photograph fish before hand. Also, the photos are time stamped with gps to verify that he fish was photographed on eligible waters. Some saltwater tournaments bring fish back to weigh them. I hope that helps. If not, many people have put vids up explaining the process.

[@captainggttv3243]

Greg -Left Guntersville- Riddle that explains it that’s weird I never seen a tournament judge by total length that’s pretty cool he would of crushed the tournament either way if it was weight or length he would have taken the win crazy how he won by a 1/4 inch the guy in second was probably so bummed out
