Spring Bass Fishing on Lake Berryessa

[@Promotepeace]

Greg drops a vid just as I start caffeinating - perfect timing😎

[@CarolinaAnglingCo]

Greg is one of the most underrated anglers on social media l. Keep it up! I love the content

[@marcosortiz8683]

HE DEAD ASS HAS THE BEST FISHING CONTENT

[@fishingwithbdawg3620]

It is weird I find myself always looking for your videos in the morning. You are by far my favorite youtuber. Keep them coming man you the man.

[@Oldvolks44]

We used to camp the Spanish flats. Have not been to Berry in a long time. Great Lake lots of fun. Thanks for the vids.

[@travisbruno1988]

Good morning from NJ im getting ready to go fishing rite now. Prespawn still weather is weird here. Probably a senko / drop shot type of day..thanks Greg we appreciate the footage brother

[@ryanharris7265]

Love your videos, could you possibly do a video on or about the kayak you use

[@OTJ_OnTop]

Nice vid I was just there on Tuesday last week and I got a lot of bass I came with my dad I know how to use a bait caster and I’m 11 years old

[@CrazyCranker]

Last time I was at Berryessa the water was soo low. That was the drought of "87" Nice to the lake has recovered.

[@portmotion3992]

Loving the new garage setup to load and unload the yak! Super handy I bet!

[@bmiller8255]

Always amazing watching you drop shotting. You put on a clinic, and the jig. Great vid!! Thank you Sir!!👍🏻🎣

[@HellyakCA]

Finally got my hands on some flat worms, can’t wait to try them out!!

[@anthonyvespia6662]

Greg, just pull in for my morning coffee, and a new adventure, pops up.Great fishing, always document thing's I learn from you.. Been working on my black-pack. Love the kayak ideas, and of course, new baits you use. I would've tried to re-catch that fish too. I'm just that way. Glad he or she was okay. Stay safe bro! 🎣🙏

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

right on man!

[@johngfishing8814]

Nice to see you stick that biggin near the end. Drop shot was killer.

[@friendlyfishingguy9556]

Intro was chill asf could listen to it all day

[@Joseph-tt5bv]

So cool to see you smiling after catching a big bass, as if it's your first big bass catch. I'd love to have more time to fish. Your content motivates me to find time :-)

[@j.w.crawford_554]

Man you’re absolutely smokin them with your hook sets! I love it! Great video once again as always!

[@lizsmith9948]

Thank you for another video to have my coffee to. I was on the lake a few weeks ago with my husband, but only caught 1 bass. Glad you had a successful day! The rice flies on Clear Lake are nasty 😂 Carry on 😊

[@Tackle2thePeople]

Absolutely gorgeous crystal clear water! Sending jealousy from Boston 😭

[@JoeKirkFishing]

Turkey was gobbling like crazy!

[@valenor916]

GB - I see you using a lot of boat ramps to get out of the water, just wanted to offer up a suggestion. If you added a bed extender to your truck, you could use the rope you use on the front of your yak, attach a heavy duty carabiner to it and hook it to the bed extender to then use your truck to haul it up the boat ramp to a place to do your tear down. Just thought I'd share a best practice that I use for my own kayak and makes getting out of the water and up a steep boat ramp a hell of a lot easier. Then again, I don't have monster Blanchard guns either so there's that haha. Tight lines, awesome vid as always my friend!

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

appreciate it man! i like that suggestion. my buddy does that to his kayak

[@rickenbacher7242]

Good day to you Mr blanch ard all good energy flows with the positive force that is your spirit .indeed the bass should be scared

[@TheodorePaulman]

I was just there yesterday! Didn’t get the Berryessa slam but I did catch a Berryessa Bigg’n

[@cdub414]

Well the 1st 20 min of my workday are going to be unproductive.

[@vangboi91]

Oh man i would of thought top water was good..but that dropshot got the kicker hehe...tight lines!road to 100k subs

[@jeffw3776]

I was at Berryessa around the same day as you. Congrats on the biggie. We used the drop shot shad worm exclusively. Solid day on the spots/smallies......maybe 30 fish...all points...very few cove fish...Other end of the lake. Thanks Greg

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

Thanks Jeff! hard to beat Berry this time of year!

[@jeffw3776]

@@GregBlanchardFishing agree....haven’t fish the creek area. Have you?

[@calvinmetcalf9515]

Doubt you’ll ever see this, but you should fish Lake Sonoma! Only about an hour and a half away but very different lake structure and style of fishing required there.

[@JamesKahil]

One of my favorite KZbinr! Moving to the bay in a month, super stoked in fish! (Watching from IL!)

[@funkyduster]

You were choking up that bug and right at the end of it you can hear a turkey gobble lol! Great video as always Greg!

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

😂

[@maomaniarocks]

nice. i need to hit up these northern lake. long drive for me

[@twodadsfishing2036]

Great video again! Can't wait to get back out to the lake this weekend and see what the bite is.

[@Thaiyote]

Me and my buddy went last weekend every other cast on the drop shot 🔥

[@fishy1368]

last year at this time for about a month and a half I would go to my house at Berryessa and catch at least 20-30 a day and most of them were decent fish and I caught them all on a shacky head with a zoom trick work in green pumpkin purple green color you should try it one of the next times at Berryessa because when its on its on!!

[@YFZMoto]

Nothing Like a Bug McMuffin first thing in the morning :) Real Nice weather out there and the water look real nice too.

[@kevincrawfordphoto]

Always appreciate your content, but really liked how you problem solved this situation and got into some quality fish.

[@kaitsab3990]

You know today i just left to Lake Berryessa too and the water was hella low. We hooked on it 3 times some giant unknown fish that we haven’t seen. Fought it for over 15 minutes plus and used 20 pound braid mono. We assume it was big blue catfish sadly we never got to see what it was. Such a mystery!

[@turntablizm12345]

Lunch break perfect

[@jones_edition]

I never miss a Greg Blanchard upload!

[@paulterry9616]

Gotta love choken on a bug. Lol. Great content. Definitely my favorite channel all around.

[@kumaboyy.7443]

That water is low! It is heating up around hear! Nice day, Greg! Enjoyed the vid!

[@stacenhartland9777]

Just awesome! Way to pick it apart with the knowledge!

[@amals51]

Awesome, I get to watch a Greg Blanchard video on my birthday! I know you planned it that way, much appreciated Greg! Lol. Anyhow, thanks for all the great videos, they are enjoyable and I seem to always take something away from them. Tight lines my friend!

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

Happy birthday!

[@SainnQ]

Those transition cuts you kept doing after 0:55 were jarring. I'm not in a hurry to watch your vids boss. I'm sticking around, take your time. lol

[@dontnonowuno9953]

Good times.thx for sharing

[@MrEbmanii]

My favorite fishing and excitement is those topwater bite explosions! Maybe next time! :)

[@outsidewithmike]

A tip if I may - Don't put the tip underwater when a fish is going to jump, or for any other reason. You lose a lot of control when you do that. An old timer told me that and it sounds logical to me. :) Great vid as always!

[@Austin_Torres]

😅😂🤣😝😄😆. That bug that you ate. At the 3 minute mark. Good LOL. 😂😂😂😂

[@sandiegobodyboarding226]

great video, that chunk was a great fight!

[@druski5585]

U should go to los banos creek the bite is on fire 🔥 an they do inspection at the gate def catch big bass tho !!!

[@lazarovillarreal4618]

Do the bass in California spawn more than once of year due to the climate? Like Lake Baccarat in Mexico?

[@sg-mx4ii]

"Now I can't edit out my choke!" Funny Greg. I hate when bugs fly into your mouth.

[@jawneesofresh]

lake near me has frys already sheesh central cal

[@drewsims262]

Love the morning upload while i enjoy some coffee and other interesting things😂😂😂 but fr enjoy your content man, cant wait for the next tournament, any coming up soon?

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

yessir! I think maybe a couple upload from now, have on this saturday lol

[@anthonysarabia5058]

Nice Video. Way to stay versatile. You got off the original game plan and killded it.

[@fishing_amy]

looks like a great place

[@gerryhazelton9569]

Funny thing about you saying there shallow catching bunch of males in like 3 ft of water here in Rhode Island . 1 female only so far . Waters still a bit cold maybe two weeks they will be spawning .

[@kendimizekadarbalk]

Good job👌

[@deonnawilliams4903]

Well...Haven’t had a tardy since last year. Good Morning Greg.

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

Good morning! Well, now, evening!

[@CN-df8gg]

Another vid of Greg throwing the drop shot😂

[@BassAssassinTJ]

“Now I can’t edit out my choke.” 😂

[@TWC6724]

Greg, do you like having a 7” fish finder or if you had to buy again would you go 9”? Trying to decide on what size to get for my first fishing kayak.

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

7'' for sure

[@californiabasssnatcherz3863]

Thanks for the inspiration your channel is great keep up the good work dude

[@TylerGoesFishing]

always love the vids greg

[@dontarver5743]

Hey Greg, the bass you caught at 12:05 sounded like a dolphin 🐬…🙃

[@chesneyroberts5365]

You should make more hour long videos like you did a week ago👍

[@Joefournierfishing]

That smallie looked like the hunchback of Berryessa

[@christerry6615]

Is it possible to still be able to get the handle on the front for assistance in pulling the kayak?

[@ilovebacalao8516]

Cant wait to start seeing u at the googan headquarters one day fishing with those guys

[@RonCheddar]

Greg doesnt need the googans !

[@ilovebacalao8516]

@@RonCheddar not saying he does.

[@SarduakarElite]

I see you’re using a lot of Abu reels now, will u do an updated arsenal vid? They’re always fun to watch.

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

I think it's in order!

[@beane10]

Excellent outing Greg, looks like u got some nice ripple from the wind, curious, did that signal the start of ur catch-fest towards the end of the vid?

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

wind always helps!

[@TheFishingExperience916]

Wow.i did the same thing yesterday to a fry gaurder on a drop shot couldn't get him to commit to anything after the drop shot broke off he still has the hook and weight stuck in him wish I was on a kayak could of tried netting him or something

[@FaithfulisOutdoors]

Hey, that table you store your kayak on.. what brand is it? where did you get it???

[@08Klown]

Im curious what kind of knots do you use to tie your lure it seems fast an easy also strong...

[@dennioC]

Great video Greg! Where did you purchase your native titan from? Im local in Norcal but havent had luck for months! Love the videos, ive learned a lot from watching. Please continue to post!

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

Thanks man! local dealers should have them soon!

[@rodneyhaymon3092]

Good day of fishing.

[@noahpalmen6548]

you deserve so many subs

[@jessecastillo4889]

Top water reel the Zata? I have 2 Zata combos medium heavy and the heavy that I think just came out. Or at least I haven't seen it before. Nice stuff as always Greg

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

yessir!

[@gianthuman3315]

What are other possibilities besides sight fishing beds, that you might catch fish doing this time of year?

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

really anything targeting fish in 3-10'. id say senkos and jerkbaits would do well

[@panelopilee]

Did you see two people fishing where you caught that 5?

[@dandorris8531]

Stop watching a lot of other channels. I got tired of watching gimmicks, fishing with stupid poles lures and a bunch of stupid things. This is the real fishing channel.

[@FishingWithDamon]

Awesome love the vid can’t wait for the next one any suggestions for my channel 😊

[@weirddingus4620]

bruh, great vids, but those fish be banging against everything in that kayak 😥 Might try lifting the line a bit higher when bringing them in

[@JP-og1jp]

Where is this at exactly , what part of berryessa

[@flyslinger2]

I’d rather catch one fish on top water versus 10 underneath. Just love that commotion on top. Next time roll the bug in chocolate before you swallow it.

[@thomasveleba9261]

Getting close to 100k!!!

[@Murphyrobert01]

Got a kayak tournament this weekend and a cold front just came through. What do you recommend using? The day of the tournament it will be 60 with 10-15mph NNW winds and partly cloudy.

[@EpIc_NaChO]

Jerkbait

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

chatterbait aorund grass

[@thereelaccountant9246]

how do you fight wind when trying to fish a spot? do you just sit down and use the pedals against the wind?

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

pedals works pretty good and the rudder control helps

[@42edits]

What is the drop shot rod the link doesn’t work

[@mischievousfish151]

Aren’t you worried the sound and vibrations from your foot peddles are scaring your fish when your right around them?

[@Lex.polupan]

Try lake amador

[@williamwelle]

Greg can you tell me what brand those wader shoes you have?
