The curse is broken (with big fish of the year)

This was risky to make this bet but I think it’s safe to say the fishing curse is broken!

Love that just a couple years ago, fishing a spinner bait just wasn't something you went to, and now it's such a confidence bait for you. That's how jigs are for me, 2 years ago didn't even own one and now I fish them every trip 💪

[@tommypv2]

@11:30 good illustration of why sometimes kayak fishing is better than boat fishing- you’re so much stealthier and can get shallower easily and into skinny water. Nice bag!

[@paulferber7090]

They also learn to pick apart areas better. Big boats tend to hop around to their hot spots.

[@barefishin]

The way u give those little twitches with the spinnerbait can make ALL the difference in getting bit! That's something very effective that can sometimes go unnoticed. Awesome.

[@Xpyburnt_ndz]

Blade bites on the Delta are ALWAYS a fun day!!! Those are my fave colors of blades out there too!

[@joshwoods7558]

Man that’s every fisherman’s early spring dream day! Good job GB! Need that spinnerbait bite real soon 😩😩

[@lizsmith9948]

Coffee time and fishy-fishy - kudos on breaking the Delta Curse PLUS a Big Fish to brag about. Nice bag if you were in a tournament 👍 It was fun calling out the weights before the bass were on the scale to see how close we were 😂 Thanks for another entertaining video before I have to go to a regular dental appointment. (The dentists should have your videos on a loop at their office 😉)

[@rangers8729]

The “Delta Curse” has been abolished!! Great vid.. keep them coming!!

[@tristenboyd2824]

Uhm that wasn’t even the curse he was talking about he’s been catching fish there lol he’s talking about the scale dumby maybe you need to watch the vids 😂

[@mattyg5566]

Delta bite looks awesome compared to last year. Really good to see it - thanks for taking us with you, Greg! The curse is broke!

[@valenor916]

Dude it's pretty funny how exciting it is to see the Delta producing like this again! So done with these lakes and finesse fishing. Time for some toads on a toad! Tight lines GB

[@zsandoh]

Awesome stuff as always Greg! Love your videos! Posted a comment last year when I caught my first Bass of the year.. Caught my first for this year today, right outside my very first apartment that happens to be right on a private part of the little lake that I grew up fishing.. Even got myself a kayak. Never thought I’d be here and it’s crazy how things can change so quickly. Your videos have definitely inspired me to break out the yak and always try new things when it comes to fishing, plus staying determined and persistent! Thanks Greg! Would be insane if you took a trip down to SoCal and fished my little slice of heaven with me 🤷‍♂️ Haha. Tight lines brotha!

[@DivinePower626]

I moved to californa a long time ago and dream of going to the delta all the time. I don't have the gear or the time but I can enjoy your enjoyment, man! ❤

[@Flippincz]

The intro……That music though. Nice. That’s awesome Greg….Biggen!!! #livinthedream #fishingistherapy

[@brucepreston3927]

Great video! I'm ready for the bed fishing! Everybody loves the spinnerbait, but I can't get bit on one to save my life...I have tried every size and color in my local river and they just won't bite it...Most of my bites come on crankbaits and texas rigs

[@Freedomfishingtuglife]

That's why I love fishing the delta Any cash could be a big one at any time . My two things that I like to use is crankbaits and tap water. Thank you for the confidence Builder I'm scheduled to go out on Saturday

[@joshhamilton4482]

You have to watch out for those sea lions! I hooked one last year trolling for king salmon. Luckily it didn’t steal a salmon from me but it took about 200 yards of 30 lb test line off my reel! I felt bad for it because I know he was most likely gonna hang up on some thing again with all that line behind it! Great video as usual!! I tried watching some other videos and when they incorporate to much music it can ruin the footage I feel! You do a great job with the camera footage and talking to your fans!!

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

Dang thats crazy! thank you sir, appreciate it

[@bmceowen2]

great video Greg, congrats on that tank! When you hook into a big one, I always look to see if you have the net :). Thanks as always for bringing us along!

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

haha always don't seem to have it when the big ones bite which im okay with if that all i have to do!

[@stephensturgeon9310]

great PFD!

[@surfy4959]

Limit with a big fish 5.44 is a great day… great video!

[@JoKenFujitsu]

Bobby Barrack has mentioned throwing frogs as low as 52° Judging from the fish I’ve caught last year, they were decent sizes but most were healthy. It’s going to be good Delta fishing in 2024. Next year will be even better.

[@TheFishinMortician]

Lets Go! 5+ fish when you had the scale is almost unheard of for you! ha ha

[@db9818]

Swans get crazy during breeding. Got attacked at Clear Lake by one, then it attacked a deer on the bank😂

[@arthurelgato7]

The delta seems to be heating up keep up the grind Greg!!

[@PickersWarehouseTV]

as a delta skunk master myself, this gives me hope. thanks Greg

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

delta is playing nice so far this year!

[@dne3142]

I'm going back out in the morning! Cayuga Lake is holding some giant pike for me to get pulled around by!

[@scottbostic6247]

Wow!! Beautiful large mouth you caught. So glad to see it. I was actually getting ready to head out for some fishing when I decided to see if you had a new video out today. Man, am I glad I checked. Way to go buddy!

Great video Greg! I might just hit up the Delta this weekend now too. When are you having any of your Gyo apperal in stock?

[@itsFisherMien_KO]

What an amazing day bro... Way to break the curse bud. I remember when I first started kayak fishing and the delta was my favorite place to go for some monsters but the last couple years I haven't done well there at all. Glad to see you out there pulling in some really nice ones. keep it up brother.

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

Thanks man! delta is shaping up to be good this year and should put out some big ones

i have and never really had too much luck surpsingly

[@alanneumann7656]

@@GregBlanchardFishing dirty jigs finesse with a Kaylin’s 4” grub works great, or a lethal weapon but it’s extra finesse really light hook and weed guard. But a grub on the back is all I do. Good luck love the videos

[@TheBaitFinesseAngler]

@greg blanchard what are some good areas to kayak? gonna be my first time this weekend, ive been boating in the delta, looking for calmer waterways, since the delta could be pretty nasty for kayakers.

[@tyler6368]

Year of the spinnerbait 😂

[@fishing4life93]

Where do you get those case things for you're lures i like those over the velcro ones

[@mattmercad0]

Man I’ve been following you for a while now and it’s your fault I’ve now bought a yak and attempting to do some fishing. My question to you is what is the carrier you use to hold all your rods when you’ve got the sleeves on um?

Hey Greg, just curious why your frog rod is set up with right hand retrieve?

Wacky rigged senko

[@MrFishingohio]

Favorite color all time for spinnerbait?

[@GregBlanchardFishing]

Hard to say but right now this new color i guess you'd call it like a coleslaw has been great. those few longer red strands sort of ride the tail of the trailer and it looks good at least to me
