Having realistic fishing expectations this winter

[@jsmith8905]

Greg never asks for likes or subs, so I'm going to do it for him. Like and subscribe. GB deserves it.

[@thatfishingnoob]

He has built quite the following. Maybe he did ask when he was at like 100 subs haha. He’s been doing his thing for years. Like a decade. Good stuff

[@tedlincolnsfishinglife]

As someone that goes out of my way to not ask either, I really appreciate that Greg provides you don’t have to.

[@Skeeta56]

I’ve been with him for years . . . Just an old (68) fart in N.C. that loves to catch a fish . . . and loves watching others do the same. Love it when he goes “home” to the “Finger Lakes”!!!

[@azevedoplumbing]

He totally does

[@anthonyvespia6662]

I've been following him for five to 6 yrs now. I've never once, heard him ask for anything. He just enjoys, and cares about sharing his fishing. 💯 😎 🛶

[@axeltrinidad9362]

Hands down one of the best fishing channels out there. I learned a lot about bass fishing from this channel. Keep up the great work sir!

[@sandybowers5085]

Love your videos, Greg!!! I’m always here for it!!! And hey!!!! No skunk and a gorgeous sunny day on the water👍🏼❤️💯

[@sandybowers5085]

I just have to add: your editing is impeccable and your music choices are amazing and so chill!!! Perfect every time!

[@alexdockrill]

I love the change over the last 5 years with the bait cave! I would love a before and after. Thanks for getting me through this winter I love kayak fishing but it gets hard up here in Canada;)

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

Its definitely been an evolution (mainly getting more crowded haha). I actually did sort of a transformation video a while back - kzbin.info/www/bejne/r5PIYoVqoqp0jKM

[@anthonyvespia6662]

Greg, I really enjoy the different lakes, reservoirs, and scenery. At-least they were three healthy looking fish. Love how calm it gets, with the sun setting back to the launch. 😎 🛶 🎣

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

yessir! such a peaceful day out on the water

[@barbaroskuzgun2159]

Good morning and tightlines to all!!

[@mdepeel1]

What a great introduction! This was incredibly helpful! Thanks for another great video!! Tight lines from the PNW 🍻

[@gilbertperez2135]

Always enjoy your fishing 🎣 videos regardless if you catch or not 😊

[@iealuwen]

Greg you make some of the best fishing vids out there. Great work.

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

thank you!

[@valenor916]

Was out at Berryessa a few days ago and had a very similar day. Oh well, it's just that time of year! Doesn't stop us from getting out on the water for a chance at a biggon! Cheers GB!

[@dennistidwell7188]

"Guys, it may be time to change the location of the derby." I felt that all the way in AL.....

[@dandorris8531]

Ya still had the best day ever GB your fishing.

[@josephvillalobos09]

Heck yea.

[@lenduckman5082]

Greg- love your videos!!! Well, you finally convinced me and I am going to pick up my Titan X 12.5. Stoked beyond belief. Question- and maybe a dumb one. What is the simple work cart you use to load your boat on to your truck? Can you share a link? Looks like a great idea. Thanks!

[@RiversideGraceFishing]

Love your video formatting with the introduction, love to watch your thought process and strategies when choosing tackle! Tight lines from SE Washington!

It's about time KZbin starts pushing your content more... 130k in your near future man! Great video!

Nice… you can still see a picture of me with a chunky largie in the collage at the boat ramp register. Guess I’m still cost to cost 😂🎣🤘

[@Polarpheonix]

Man the tough bite is back

[@JohnGWilson]

I love learning from you Greg... even tho im way over here in Georgia !!

[@chefpedr0]

What a better way to do while waiting for my trucks alignment to be done! The smell of new tires, coffee and Greg’s video! It’ll wakey you up! Lol

[@MrFishingOhio]

Will have to watch after work but looking forward to it as always Really want to catch my first football jig fish this year!

[@Longboard-Dude]

Mr. Greg . . . Another video enjoyed; many "Thanks" 🤙! Went to ISE today and just got back a couple of hours ago. I knew you weren't presenting today 😟but I can't make it up to Sacramento this Saturday; would have loved the opportunity to shake your hand, and your crew also, and personally "Thank You" for your content. Would have loved to hear you speak as well. If ISE allows you to video your Q&A, and if you're OK with it, it would be AWESOME 😃if you could post your Q&A session on your channel.

[@brianmcquinn5897]

Glad you are loving the 360. It’s fascinating!

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

yessir! very cool to see whats around you out deep and just out some of the points and ledges shape

[@brandonmerideth5450]

Awesome video as always! Watching you use the mega 360 to orient your casts more accurately honestly looks much easier and effective for a kayak without spot lock! When the kayak is moving and the fish are moving it’s hard to line up two moving objects I was going to go with livescope for both the kayak and the boat but I think I’m going to add mega 360 to the kayak and livescope to the boat since it has spot lock

[@patdavis7786]

That lake is good to use gold color swim bait . With the golden trout they stock it with.. Keep a tight line luck luck to ya 🎣 🎣🎣

[@hillmonbrooksjr9847]

His editing is 🔥

[@MarkoMygun]

Cold morning, Hot Coffee yeah and Greg. I think you did great ,3 fish 5-6 pounds in January Good job man. Thanks for the video bro.

[@FishingForTitans]

Just in time for the first cup of the day ☕️ 🤙🏽

[@Casitascrawlers]

Sometimes it’s just nice to get out tomorrow is Friday but rain is in the forecast for both days I just need to get out but usually don’t fish in the rain but I figured maybe I’d just go to the local lake to see what the conditions are just to get out after working all week.

[@bobbymcdonald2531]

Another Banger from Greg thanks for the awesome video

[@garydisney5347]

Hey,I saw an Abu Garcia Revo ad yesterday featuring you on KZbin.

[@5rods5reels29]

In the middle of January the bass will relate totally to the baitfish. Find the bait find the fish.

[@Frewsfishn]

Nice work on a great morning

[@cbfishing8016]

Great video as always. Have you considered installing visors on those graphs? I think they’re good not only for the sun glare, but also for the water gunk that gets on the screen…especially if you’re boat flipping bass over them

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

thank you sir. I think i'll end up grabbing some once we get into the summer!

[@tracylor5566]

Greg I want to see a video at Trinity lake😉

[@LakeBeltonBassin]

Love the gear videos

[@mattcampbell9011]

Greg your videos are informative and entertaining. You’ve encouraged me to get back on the water and I have a Native in order. Haven’t been this fish-brain-fever excited in years. Can you please share your thoughts on bow vs stern propulsion, specifically why you don’t run a trolling motor? Thanks Greg and please keep the vids coming!

[@lineman4204]

Could u go over how u set up your hummingbird

[@TheFishinMortician]

Just a few months and we are back in prime bass conditions! Glad you didn't have to do a skunk video at least!

[@lizsmith9948]

Coffee and setting the hook! Glad you mentioned that your buddies will be at the ISE with you - I really look forward to that! And yes, you didn't skunk after snaring some decent bass. Working the lure slowly in winter puts me to sleep 🙁 Take care and thank you for the excellent editing 😊

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

No skunk so I will take it! Yep, we'll be there and hopefully we won't get too wet on Saturday! haha

[@fishshaun]

Another great video to add to the archive. I was thinking of giving Camanche a shot, but if you struggled I am not even going to attempt 😂. Thanks for the info Greg!

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

haha ya never know, bite could turn on or you could find a pile of fish any given day there!

[@fishshaun]

Looked like you were fishing south shore? Do you have a preference?

[@garrickspencer5697]

Can’t go wrong with throwing a drop shot and a Ned rig when the bite is tough on Comanche.

[@ryangines1369]

Classic camanche

[@mikeryan925]

Good morning coffee crew! One day I’ll bring the family to a meet up. Sounds like a good time.

[@stacenhartland9777]

let's go fishing! 😁

[@jcann9632]

Lake looks great and those fish looked good and healthy.👍 Bummed I'll miss you all at the ISE but I got a chance to catch the last of the duck hunting season. Lookin forward to the next video....maybe a lil Berryessa winter action. Another tough winter lake I know but I'm sure with all those new electronics you should be able to find'm. 🤘🍻🍻

Is the mount for dual graphs going to available to the public soon?

[@JuanDoe1776]

I enjoy watching for videos Greg. I just bought a Titan X 12.5. I keep noticing the foot steering on your boat. Can you give us some details on the foot steering?

[@mroshfosh]

Are you gonna be at the expo this weekend in sac? Yes you out there

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

Yep! Saturday 12-1 pm at the Kayak theater

I can only imagine how much time you spend unloading and loading a single kayak now. When I got my kayak back in 2020 I streamlined everything and have simple steps loading and unloading taking maybe 5 mins. Completely decked out too.

[@toddclarke3132]

Love the content... Curious which size of bait cover you use for which baits?

[@tombosanko3085]

Have you tried bullards bar yet? We caught a lot of fish but they were small. Still had a good time fishing.

[@cedrikboutin8371]

Hey greg what is that little red thing on your rod where you put your drop shot

[@BassRaider]

Nice dude!😁🤙

[@michaeldilbeck9259]

Being that I regularly fish Camanche for trout, I recognize many of your locations. Have you tried fishing “upriver” - basically going the opposite direction from the marina? I catch lots of bass trolling for trout. If you ever wanna catch some fish to actually eat, let me know and I’ll put you on some trout.

[@lctachell]

Whats the knot that you're using on your jigs? I see ya use that knot all the time.

[@djradrs199]

I'm starting to twitch and have widthdrawls myself its been lil over a month since i've got to hit the waters...tie up some of my jigs or air brush some lures .... my free time has been filled with overdue house chores 🤷‍♂ for me it's been over 20 yrs since I've been a back seater at Comanche.. keep grind'n an wind'n brother .... 👊

Glenn is still using this kayak! Figured he would have upgraded by now

[@socalbass758]

Morning GB from LA where lakes here are so infested makes you wanna quit!

[@Kingbasspickleball1]

I’m sure this has been answered but i haven’t seen it.. What’s the take a trailer to the lake then put Kyak on it to launch thing … Do you not like braid to leader so you don’t have to re spool like that? i keep going back n forth with braid myself.. Can’t decide 😅

[@daveversion2.2]

Chilly? HA! It just warmed up to 20 today and snowing. Pond is frozen now.

[@gerryzamora4127]

Greg off topic and maybe you have answered this previously, but what do you do with your older Kayaks? After getting a new one.

[@gavinmceachern1808]

Greg do you keep written notes of your fishing outings or do you review the video for past experience? You always seem to know how you did in the past

[@ReelEmN]

Hey Greg what trailer is that you are using to take your yak to the water?

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

It's a dynamic dolly. Lots of options on their website depending on the size kayak

[@bayareaangling4449]

Do you plan on adding live to your yak now or are you still gonna wait till the next one

[@Larry77777]

Hey Greg: It's just me, but I think you'd do better on your NED jigs if you switched to floating plastic NED baits (i.e. ElaZtech from ZMAN and SUPER TPE from Crush City)

[@JoelSpahn]

How do you like the helix 9 for running the 360? Thinking about getting that one or a bigger one. Almost blind in one eye so the bigger screen would be nice

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

I think they're perfect size sitting about 4' away. could move them a little closer and it'd be plenty detailed i'd imagine

[@Kiomanche]

Hey Greg! What size line do you use when throwing crank baits?

[@Jeremiah-oo2ue]

Never fails every time you measure or weigh the fish it’s a slow day

[@mattcollinsfishing]

Quick question on the dolly. Do you leave the wheels in the bed of the truck or put them in the cab? Have a similar setup and just got my dolly. Love it so far!

[@Danxiong]

@10:04 What tackle box is that? Looks a little deeper than the standard Plano Edge.

[@shaneb353]

What is that box you used to respool?

[@MostlyHumanPowered]

Enjoyed the video, but I'm really concerned about what you are wearing for air temp 42F and water temp 52F. Have you done a swim test? You are fishing by yourself on a big lake. What would happen if you capsized? We need to talk more about kayak cold water safety.

[@garydennis5178]

I have a question. No matter how I ask it, it's going to sound wrong.. where did you get the knob for ur steering?

Fished Folsom on Monday and the bite was very similar to your Comanche trip - saw tons of bait and they only bit drop shot and Ned rig later in the day. Hope the rain keeps coming and the reservoirs fill up for a fantastic spring, summer and fall 😊.
