    My first time Kayaking and this Kayak held strong. czcams.com/users/postUgkx4k5UrhC3v_Y4hIEaXLGvHcN5a5aBmZNB The water got pretty rough as a speed boat zipped by me, and the Kayak withstood it (I expected to be capsized). The Ores are very easy to put together, the pump worked beautifully. the seats are a bit hard to sit in after a while (I recommend sitting on the floor). after reading the reviews I was very scared it'd get a hole in it, the material is very strong and durable. The Air valve may need a small Phillips head screwdriver to adjust, other than that, it's well worth the money!(update)I've gone Kayaking in 3 Lakes and 2 rivers totaling about 40 miles. the kayak had two holes and they patched easily and no other problems can't wait for kayaking season this year!

    Greg, Greg, Greg! This video was awesome! It's been a few weeks since I've commented on a video. You get so much feedback from so many different people I don't want to create static when I agree with most of the comments, but I just had to say something about this! This by far is absolutely the best kayak fishing channel on CZcams! I really need to start buying your hoodies and shirts just to help support this channel to ensure that we get quality content like this for a nice long time! Way to go with the PB Younders!!!!

    So I get to work and I always start off my day with turning on my laptop. My homepage is CZcams because I also keep track of what is happeningin the UFC. Whenever I see a new Greg Blanchard video pop up that has a forshadowing title of goodness (ie. "A magical day of kayak fishing", "This was a fishing trip to remember", "Vicious August Frog Bites on the California Delta"), I immediately stop what I'm doing and grab my cup of coffee before hitting the play button. It's like a good cigar after finishing an initense session "where the magic happens". Thank you Greg for always being able to start my days on a good note (whenever you post a new video). Tight lines.

    Holy cow Greg, I'm aspiring to be a youtuber and what you must go through in camera set up just for one video. In the garage, behind the truck, next to the truck to watch the unload. I'm worn out. LOL. Your videos are always great. Thanks.

  • @TheFishinMortician
    @TheFishinMortician Před rokem +3

    Bet it feels nice to finish the video with a catch montage on those last few instead of just a cast montage! What an awesome day you had, thanks for sharing it with us.

      @Flynfish Před rokem +1

      @@GregBlanchardFishing I'm just starting to get more serious about making videos. I'm working on finding my style and a pattern that I enjoy repeating. I have found I can't make myself talk enough on the videos. I want to add context and my thought process in the videos. I have zero problem talking the rest of the time, but out on the water I just enjoy the silence. Anyway, I am always tempted to do the casting between catches, yet I seem to always delete that footage. I am learning how to manage the storage and filing all the data to have enough room on external hard drives and on my computer.

    @nawtypotty1 Před rokem +1

    when you realise that greg opens the garage door and setups the camera, them closes the door behind him, just to setup the shot of him opening the door again.

    Hey Greg: Your casting accuracy along docks is so impressive, I am thinking seriously of "your" Abu Garcia Revo SX LP Casting Reel as my very first baitcaster. (I do all my kayak bassin' exclusively with spinning reels). You used the 6.7:1 and I'm wondering if you were to do it again, would you use the 7.3:1 in tight quarters like that?

  • @jimmcclanahan6961
    @jimmcclanahan6961 Před rokem +1

    Love your videos Greg! One thing, really tired of hearing you say “I don’t have a scale/board with me”. I get it. I am a kayak fisherman too and I don’t want to bring something I don’t absolutely need. YOU ABSOLUTELY NEED A WAY TO MEASURE YOUR FISH IN CASE LETS SAY YOU GET A PB SMALLMOUTH! If you don’t think you’ll use it then put it in your front hatch. In my opinion you should always have that with you. No if, ands or buts about it. That being said keep up the good work Greg! 👍🙏
