Redeeming myself at Lake Camanche

[@mikejacques8863]

After another well known KZbinr took a step back recently to make sure he could give his family well deserved dedicated time I want to thank you for how much of yourself and your time you give to us. Your editing and videos are amazing; hopefully you’re not feeling the content crush and if you are- make sure you’re taking time for yourself and your mental health. That being said, having the GB notification go off is the best part of my day! Thank you again for your hard work.

Absolutely

Yes man, Well said. His work is greatly appreciated

[@MaineStreamFishing]

Good man! And we should be more thankful and appreciate the work these people put in

[@madd0g1539]

Greg you are such a savage. You drive hours to fish and share your journeys with all of us. And your content is seem less. I appreciate you brother and thank you for all the effort you put into including us on your fishing quests. Lol. Thanks to you and all the dark horse crew. Cheers

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

Thanks brotha!I've got some interesting footage from my earlier years that may explain this passion (or obsession?) with fishing but I'm incredibly honoured to have this audience tuning into my days on the water.

[@josephvillalobos09]

Glad you got on em today my guy. That's what we do it for.

[@adamjohnson7385]

Days like this is what makes it all worth it! As always awesome video Greg👍

[@jimreilly5770]

So happy you had a good day Greg...we've all gone through those dry spells...you earned this bro!

[@fishtherapy247]

Always better fishing when it's a new moon 🌚! Great video as always! Trying a new spot on my kayak this Thursday/Friday hopefully it's a good one. Tight lines!🤙

Nothing better than a happy GB!

1 of the best fishing channels 👌 out there!!

Always with them bangers. Keeping WI folks like me hopeful and entertained! Thanks GB!

[@travisbruno1988]

Glad you had a nice day out there. they should be on main lake, drop offs/ledges and bluffs rite now but fish are never guaranteed rite. God Bless and Thanks Greg we appreciate the vids

[@SKUNKPROOF]

Things been tough all over. Weird weather I believe. I'm in FL fishing the Challenge Series, Jan. was my forth month and finally scored some points (I think). Had a six fish day couple weeks ago. Definatly lifts one's spirits. Tightlines! Ron aka "Skunkproof"

[@jfunk9005]

Thank ya sir! Never miss a video so as a viewer, there's a connection to the struggles you've had recently. As soon as I read redemption and you crushed the first cast, I felt so relived lol... And being that it was literally right up road from me was even cooler. You're getting that 10 pounder soon! Feel it!

[@crushedit1497]

Greg, you're everybody's friend🤙🏾

[@NWAhookups]

Well done, great video!

[@FishinMitch]

When you set the hook on that first fish I fist pumped for you 😅Awesome video brother!

[@OptimizedOutdoors]

Great day out on the water! Definitely been a tough bite here but even when you skunk its an awesome video!!!

[@spencerrule123]

Way to grind it out Greg!

[@wallygallagher9182]

You just need to put more time on Camanche...It's one of the best fisheries around!

[@strat-a-caster2016]

Heck yeah Greg, I was pulling for you man. Three trips like you had here recently can leave you feeling pretty crappy. I knew you would get on them though. So crazy how humbling fishing can be man!! good work!

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

Yessir! Man, that feeling is real. Fishing confidence just dips so much but once you have that "day" all is well in the world again.

[@emmanueldeguzman5930]

Good to know fishermens like you have bad days. 🙏🏽

*Nice Redemption Trip*

[@tims_always_fishing7117]

I can't wait to get a pig smallmouth this spring

[@Hugofgarza1984]

Nice!. my local lake is always good for at least one or two fish. Most of the time its a struggle, but we fisherman can be stubborn and there's always a day for redemption. Good stuff! #nedjiglife

[@jedmetheny3710]

I'm in the same slump. 3 days no fish

[@juancueva4809]

Go to los vaqueros!

[@stevec69]

you should go don pedro next and see if streak develops

[@NSKINGS420]

I get so pumped when I watch your videos! Installing new flooring at work & watching your video while im working. Hopefully get my native kayak at the end of this month & start pumping out more videos, just been making videos of fishing from the banks, check em out Greg. Stay blessed and have fun!!!

[@aarondavis8224]

I just moved from California to East Tennessee and I'm in a slump as well. I'm out of my element and have found out the smallmouth fishing here is better than largemouth. This means I need to learn new ways of fishing plus different bait and color selections.

[@adamjohnson7385]

Welcome to east Tennessee brother! I moved here 14 years ago just for the fishing I fish Douglas lake the most and it's been rough this winter but still banging some out. Been using Ned rig and strike king bitsy bug jigs mostly. I hope this helps tight lines!

[@aarondavis8224]

@@adamjohnson7385 I'm living in Bristol so I'm fishing Boone, south Holston and Watauga. Its been so cold and snowing here that I've been trout fishing lol. I was able to nab a few smallies on the maxscent flatnose minnows on a dropshot. This spring I will be trying some finesse jigs and some neds even some small crankbaits and spinnerbaits. Its just too cold to get on a consistent bass bite. The trout fishing has been very productive though.

[@adamjohnson7385]

Boone was just recently refilled after having the dam repaired I've been wondering how it was. Back before they drained it it was my go to lake. South Holston has always been a hard lake but does produce some monster smallmouth. My go to winter bait for SH in the winter was always a duck fly or a brown hair jig with orange pork trailer.

[@EpIc_NaChO]

You gonna upgrade the ol graph for the upcoming season?

[@danielcortez6466]

Shot out to Tactical Bassin for serving game to all these you tubers

[@Silocky]

What knot to you use for fluorocarbon on spinning rods?

[@bendover-uf9st]

👌

[@mattolivo]

Okay so I feel like the Ned jig might have something to do with it, I tried it for the first time this weekend and I caught over a limit at a lake that I've never caught more than two fish a day at. 7 keepers and 2 dinks. They would not bite anything else. I just happened to remember you trying the ned jig a week or 2 ago and I figured I'd give it a shot, I already had a keitech jig tied on so I swapped the trailer for a trd and 2nd cast I was hooked up. Thx for that lol.

[@moonbeambaby]

Love your uploads! If I'm not watching at home, I'm watching in my mans tackle shop! Keep it up sir👍

[@patflynn]

The Casey Neistat of the bass fishing world. Been binging your videos lately Greg, and now, I'm about to buy a Kayak. Hope to see you out on the water one day. I appreciate you and the time you put into this channel, it's epic.

[@nathanielplummer9995]

Ever since 1Rod showed you as a favorite fishing youtuber to watch, i've watched every video and what a video man! congrats on a solid day.

Yessirrrrrr!!!!!!!!!! Love your vids and your personality man. Keep it up:) will be here through the good and bad. This one felt real good to watch

[@carlchristenson3430]

I love that you show the good days and the tough days. You do the grind, pay your dues, and we get to see you trying to figure it out. It makes me think about what I would try in a given situation, which is part of the fun. Thank you for not being click bait. Solid content!

[@billh6805]

I agree, love you show good and bad.

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

thank you sir! I think that overall grind we all experience as fisherman is what makes those catches so much more special.

[@arls9430]

Super excited for your buddy!!! I kept watching even tho no bites. Keep on keepin on.

Have you ever though of trying Rancho Seco? Small lake that can be tough but also has large bass

Thank you Greg, I love the fact you keep it real and helps guys like me also going through a slump more hopeful (and knowing it hits really good fisherman like you also), appreciate the videos as always!

[@dylanschannel6275]

Maybe try some different species like trolling for trouts at lake amador or go for some crappies during the slower month for bass. I would love to see that!

[@dnlsongs]

Hi Greg - awesome video, beautiful lake, enjoyed watching, regards Danny ~

[@RonBrumback]

Greg, In your gear description, you have the Newport motor on the Slayer Max 10 now. What kind of speed are you getting on the Slayer Max? I have a 12.5 Slayer max and am in between buying the Newport and the Xi3 for this season.

[@jcann9632]

One hell of a day!🤘🍻 Way to see you found..... yourself. The bite has been tough everywhere but it is nice to see you shake it off and find the confidence..... lake looked real low but a beautiful day on the water. No better way to spend a day! 👍🤘🍻🍻

That look backward to the camera after the first fish... comic genius... I actually laughed out loud!

The good old dragonfly bait. Nice catches, should have weighed all of them. Thanks for the video Greg.

Hey greg what temp was the water? if said in video didnt catch it sorry.. nice fishin tho brotha #ThankYaSir

[@jenniferellis6593]

Congrats Greg. I have felt your pain. The fish do not want to play lately. I don't know if it is because of weather or what. We have had a rollercoaster of a weather pattern. You have given me hope today. You are right,' never give up, never surrender. Awesome job.

[@Freshmanger2009]

Longest I have ever gone without a hit is 3 weeks. Was using a large swim bait to learn it.

Due to cover and weather haven't gotten to fish for the whole month of January. Hopefully going this Saturday

Your past couple skunk vids inspired me to get out despite the weather. Caught my PB for the year yesterday before this cold front here in AR moved in. Luckily I remembered a scale and pulled a 3 lb. 15 oz. Largie out of my favorite creek.

[@kennightingale516]

As the crazy pro says, "NEVER GIVE UP!" I knew it was just a matter of time. But I will say, you had some good company on some of those bad trips. Friends make it easier to accept those bad days. Best of luck, keep up the great work.

Thank you for showing your thought process (mobile navionics app-wise) as you go looking for particular features. Every one else just shows the day’s greatest hits. As always, love the channel, keep up the good work!

[@edkelly145]

I usually don't fish January in South Carolina. I'm glad I did. Almost 95% bank fishing. I caught 110 bass. I landed 2 bass with weights of 7.3 pounds! I have a bad back, so I do not fish long (70 years old). My go to baits were Owner bladed jig heads, Strike King 2-Tap Lipless (Rayburn Red) 1/2 oz., and a few on weightless white fluke. Enjoy your content and have been a long follower of yours. Everyone has those bad streaks. My good luck streak was just very sustained.

[@clayharada5163]

Hey Greg, I went to Camanche today, Friday, February 4th. AM surface temp 48°. Not a bite. Now I have Berryessa and Camanche back to back skunk!

[@danielkinn782]

Greg...you should check out Lake Hennessy. Next to Berryessa. Little pressure and has GIANTS. You can cover that lake in a day. Just some food for thought

[@Nate1688]

If your out by Camanche. You ever fish New Hogan, Pardee, or Amador all 3 lakes within 15min of camanche.

Can definitely see the relief on your face Greg! Great day out there, those were some solid spots!

[@adamjohnson7385]

Brother Greg! Had to revisit this video to let u know that this the "GREG JIG" as I have deemed it works here in Tennessee just as well. The lake I fish is at very low levels right now and my fish have been 10-15ft deep. I went to 3/16 oz bitsy bug jig with half of a zman Ned worm on it and it's like candy to em! Tight lines brother and God bless you!
