Last Tournament of 2022 (YAB Tournament of Champions)

[@dthao92]

Congrats Greg on finishing strong for the season. Really enjoyed hearing you, Mike and Dutch’s perspective on FF sonar.

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

Thanks dude! congrats on another W and great season. Yeah, it's such a hot topic right now but either way I'm sure you'd still beat us with or without it as folks will see in the next video 😂

[@puvlea83]

I shouldn't read the comments half way through for this reason 😑

[@JohnRamosBrand]

Thanks for an awesome year guys. You’ve done a tremendous job!

[@cstarsfly]

Great bunch of fishin' friends! Great videos!

[@Lloyd_Will]

Such a pity this was the last one. I love it when the gang gets together. Having friends looks nice.

[@paulziebell2479]

Dude...I pumped my fist on that big fish. Great way to end the tourney year. Blast with your friends...can't beat it. Perfect!!!

[@OldLadyAngler]

Wow, that wind! Good call on the Safety Cove. Heck of a great ending to the year, Greg.

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

Thanks OLA, now I just need to figure out how to catch those 23+ inch fish like you do

[@charliebatze5389]

I was waiting for Greg to say “relax I just want to take some pictures” 😂😂😂

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

🤣🤣🤣

“Do it while you can. Life is short.” Words of wisdom

[@rafabonati7757]

Notice that the beer was packed in the truck first. Then the net, etc. Congratulations to all of you. Great group of guys!

[@lizsmith9948]

Yay, you hit your 5 fish! I was yelling, "Stay on!" at the TV 😂 Being able to cull is so 😎😎😎 Our tournament is this Saturday, so thank you for the insight. Wonderful that you placed No. 10 on the 1st day! It was exciting on the 2nd day too - I was helping you count the fish LOL Glad you're safe from the white caps! We had a bad one on Clear Lake one year. The entire club came in early because the waves were coming over the bow! I had to keep my foot on the glove box because it would pop open whenever the boat landed off a wave. Congrats on coming in 3rd! 🤗

[@nateriley4067]

Looking forward to 2023, hopefully Clear Lake will be more productive in the new year than how it ended the summer.

[@James3-13]

Greg seems like a genuinely good dude! Congrats Greg!!!

[@maddmannziggy89]

G-man does well and mike does well that’s a great tournament boys!! Great video!!!

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

great way to end the season

[@davidamato3690]

Drinking beer and eating greasy food is what I'm doing while I watch! So please, continue to do the same. It's the most entertaining part of your videos. The fishing parts are just ok :).

[@scottbostic6247]

Greg Blanchard, dude, without a doubt, I new you were going to do well. Only thing that surprised you were the waves. You knew what the fish were going to be like and you played them the only way you could. Great job. Love seeing it. We all enjoy your victories. Some of us live vicariously through you. 😆. Keep the videos up for us.

[@ron2893]

Congratulations on your 3rd place finish . Sierra Nevada makes good beverages .

[@chaddbusmc1]

I see you out there mike! Nice! GB you killed it as well. Can’t wait to see you all in 23. Forward facing is the new direction but it’s nice to see you all catch ‘em using skill and knowledge

[@chriscannon5822]

Can’t wait for 2023 with the crew!!!

[@Fego_Garcia]

Great Job Greg! Loved the video! Can wait for the recap video! 🎉

[@db9818]

Good way to end the year. With our lakes being so damn low it has really change the fishing patterns, hell even CL was a new beast this year.

[@JonnimunkiZA]

Well done Greg! A ton of smallcraft anglers following you here in South Africa and cheering you on 🎉

[@jaipoh3965]

I enjoy fishing vicariously through you and your boys! Thank you so much.

[@bmiller8255]

Great tournament to you and Mike. Both Top 5 without Forward facing electronics. Don’t be to worried about it. Thank you Sir for bringing us along.

[@TheChickensqueeze]

Congratulations Greg!

[@jonathank5388]

Mike and Dutcher crack me. Ya'll are some characters. Keep em close Greg. Banking on my favorite youtube fisherman to get a live scope next season. Let's gooooo!

[@amals51]

No doubt, that will be the next wizard video for sure!

[@derektolliver5476]

Every time the fish jumps while you are trying to take photos all I hear in my head is “ relax, I just want to take some pictures” 🤣🤣

[@DEEZLE42]

Great season!KEEP DOING YOU Dude!!!

[@ThrillFishing]

Waves always look calmer in the videos. Even on my boat 15-25 mph wind is rough

[@BassRaider]

Great season! Absolutely love all the vids bro! Nice finish too🤙🤙

[@Michaelpruis]

Congrats Greg on the solid finish to the season... might be time to dish out for livescope, the efficiency alone is worth it.

[@hankcogburn2600]

Great video Greg. Can’t wait til next season all ready.

[@FishingWithLardAlmighty]

This is one of your best videos yet. I can't wait to see what 2023 has in store for us. Thank you.

[@tylerzulewski2424]

Great way to wrap up the season Greg. Fished real clean and pounded it out. I would agree that if others are using better electronics it’s going to be tough to stay competitive. Either way hell of a job!

[@sandybowers5085]

Congratulations Greg you did great!! Thanks so much for sharing your videos with us. My anxiety has been helped so much by watching your videos!!!

[@johnhill2298]

Great finish Greg! I appreciate all your videos!🙂

I can think of three times where I've been in some dicey water and it's not fun. Basically on edge the while way back to safety.

[@JohnSattoCH]

Great job Greg!! Another awesome long tournament video! Love it!!! 👍👊

[@Retep33]

One of my favorite videos by far. Always so positive and always looks like a great time with great people.

[@mikewimmer4614]

Greg, solid season and thanks for sharing it with us. Your videos, even the ones where you struggle, keep me motivated. A true ambassador to the sport. Now, get ahold of Matt, NDYAKANGLER, and get on his sked for a road trip this spring early summer for a smallmouth slamma.

[@amals51]

That would be a great colab! I’d love to see those guys fish together, two of my favorite yak anglers! The two that really motivated me to get into kayak fishing.

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

Thanks Mike! Would be awesome to fish with NDYAKANGLER. I'll see what I can do!

[@ramispesca1406]

I really like these videos I started watching your videos here in Texas when you were fishing the kats tournaments Many things have changed, everything for the better, keep it up, it's a very good job 👍 God bless you 🙏

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

Thanks Ramis! hope to make it back to TX next year

[@ramispesca1406]

@@GregBlanchardFishing It would be great to fish the tournaments, many groups with good tournaments

[@jerrythao9321]

I enjoy your vids brother. Thank you for sharing your adventures with all of us. I do have to agree with some others about your electronics. That front sonar gives such an advantage over so many if not all that does not have one. I fish a few tournaments up here in the Midwest and I have done somewhat good, I know having livescope or mega live or live target would do me much more. That's what I am going to invest in next year.

[@hawjfamily321]

I missed the premier but any video with the crew is always great. Awesome vid.

[@andrewdurance]

Great tournament- those waves looked nasty. Awesome year - thanks for the videos - enjoyed every one. Cheers!!

[@anthonyvespia6662]

Congrats Greg! Ending a season like that, be proud. Especially in those conditions. That was an extremely rough day two. Great tournament for both, you and Mike. Little bit of everything in this one. Shout out also to Damian. Glad you guys had fun, and came back safe. Epic trip bro.. 🙏 😎 🎣

[@randangletv]

Dude when you caught that smallie in the cove and he started to flop I literally Leaned over to help you keep him in the boat LOL! That’s how into your videos I get!!!! You’re the GOAT GB!!!!!

What a great way to end the season. I look forward to seeing you at some of these tournaments in the water. Congratulations to everyone!!!

[@MichaelCraig-bi3wj]

Are you going to upgrade your equipment next year? Spot lock and forward sonar are almost a must now days. To bad, you seemed to do pretty well without it but in the long run it will be hard to compete with those who have it. Another great video man, good luck next year.

[@citylimitsbassin]

Another great video. I dont remember if you have done a boat and gear review on the crews setups. Wouldn't mind seeing that.

[@Sheddtycoon]

Congrats guys great job .Take care on the waters this next year .

[@rayb2208]

Good job on 3rd. It amazes me how wet the inside of Natives get. I have an Old Town Predator PDL and never gets water in it with the one way scupper plugs. Only a little if I raised the peddle drive system but quickly goes out.

[@skittles7001]

You left NY too soon. A whole week of 65-70 degree weather. Got my freezer 12 awesome bass fillets as well as a 14 1/2 in perch. Granted it was out of a private lake in NE PA, all on a strike king bitzy bug. You rock with your skills and production quality.

[@skittles7001]

You mentioned that you wanted to know if the fish were following your lure, they make a camera that you tie onto your line and it films your lure. How is that for a run on sentence. There is an entry level cam (olynbros) for $59.99 and the other is $199.99 (GoFish cam) tested to 500' while the entry level goes to 65'. You deserve to know, you need to know, I'm old and my jokes irritate me too.🎣💰😃

[@skittles7001]

Get you some out-riggers for the windy days(if allowed)

Great come back Greg! Till next year on tournament fishing!
