Braided violin time ❤ love a punch bite.
7 on a blade!! Couldn’t ask for anything better!! Good job Greg!
Thank you sir! gotta love a blade bite😎
Never seen a small bass hit so hard that it makes the braid screech before you even set the hook lol
Coffee crew…. Assemble!
All I can picture is a very generic looking coffee mug made out of robots
Yisssss
Nothing better than having coffee with a greg video... and then immediately taking my morning shit on company time
@@jamesh7469 LOOOL “Boss makes a dollar, I make a dime, that’s why I poop on company time.”
I love this community
I think this was the day i bumped in to you out there. Glad to see the big fish you caught. Awesome job! Hope to seeya again soon
yessir! good to meet you man, hope ya got on some fish
Friday's inspiration, LFG! Nothing like GB in the am.
Fresh Coffee, fresh GB video, this morning is good indeed! Fun as always Greg!
TOAD!!!!!!!! Hell yeah now I’m going fishing tomorrow
GREG,,,,YOU ROCK !!
ITS BEEN A WHILE SINCE I'VE BEEN ON THE DELTA...BUT SHE'S STILL BEAUTIFUL.
TIGHT LINES !!
I’ve never seen a bass that big 😱Great video as always, Greg!
Greg I've looked at charts for the Delta and the different things that may affect the fishing! You have a spider web of waterways to deal with and i can see it will be a challenge at least at times. I think maintaining your focus is what has to be done, just as you found that female after sorting through those little fish. I hope your tournament goes well and you find those big females.
Fish almost broke the board HOLY SMOKES 🚬
Another Delta fishing tale in the book 👌
In-N-Out is a treat for success not only for skunks. Come to think of it, anytime we're able to get on the water is a success!
yessir! fishing can be tough sometimes but always enjoy the time out there
YEEHAW I'm so glad you brought your net this time for your PB fish. What a monster toad! Congrats Gregg 👍👍👍 As always, thanks for showcasing the Delta. I continue taking notes on lures and techniques to he!p get fish into the boat. Continue to have fun and stay safe out there. 😊
Good morning Greg! When that toad welled up, I was helping from the couch lol. Congrats!
Do u ever go over the drop (the steep drops that are in the delta) and drop a jig?
You gotta find a nice drop and jig somthing that will move up and down not side to side. You can bait the jig as well.
I find it a nice switch when it's warm you never know what you'll pick up from bass, big catfish, even sturgeon. Have a blast.
Cheers everyone! ☕ Good morning Greg. 😊
Fishing personified!! One day bad the next great. You can never really predict the success you will have
Love you Greg keep giving NY anglers a BIG name! Up the Empire State!!!
YES!!!! So happy for you Greg! You are too good of a fisherman to NOT put that biggen in the yak 😆 nice job bro!
Great opening. I loved that hookset montage.
Congrats on that big ole tank !!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for another great video Greg,just seeing you land that big one AWESOME.
Thanks Greg, nice fish!
Omg beauty Greg!
Oh man delta giants!
😢 can't wait to own my own yak. I just sit and jealously admire all of the local yakkers.
May your lines stay tight on tournament days, GB.
Nice tank Greg!
As always great video your commentary on your videos sets you apart from the rest love it
What a great day on the water. And a nice freaking toad!!!!
Nice one Greg.
Good stuff
Let’s go GB!!!! Cheers Mate!!!
Good practice and video
Lovei this video...your all around literally where I live...it's good to see you take care of the fish!!
Thank you sir! For sure, trying to improve in getting bigger class fish back in the water asap
@@GregBlanchardFishing honestly just GTA punch the heaviest nasty shit...or way back in tullies where no bass boat goes!! Throw where nobody else will and that's where GINA is!!! 😂
That was a nice younder you got there. Hopefully you can get on those in the tournament. Good luck!
Another great fishing day Greg. That big fish was killer,,,
I'll get my chance, just gotta keep my eyes open.
Thanks for another great video.
G-g-g-Giant bass! Nice👏👏👏👏
Well done sir! That was a biggun!
Thank you for another great video! What a tank!🤙
WOW!!!
Nice toad!!! Great video! Miss the Delta.
Great catch 🐟
From Georgia 😎
i wish there were big ones like that where i live, great video Greg!!
Hell yeah dude, nice tank on the spinnerbait!
Gotta Luv a Good Spinnerbait Bite ..... and to get a YUGE ONE on it ,,, YeeeeeeeTaaaaaDeeee
That big'em though! Sweet catch!
Gregory, throw the swim jig around all those tule’s, it’ll slay!!
Greg ur videos have made me realize how similar the California delta and the Delaware river are I swear I been experiencing the exact same thing here it seems as if all the big fish just disappeared. I haven't seen a fish over 5lbs this year and not even other people have even yak fisherman I've ran into that have literally wondered same thing but. I think sooner or later they have to come by.
Great day of work bud! Good luck in tourney
got the damn sierra nevada pale ale hoodington 😭😂
As a new yakker, CA Delta is still intimidating to me. One of these days I’ll make it out there. Until then, I’ll keep heading to Rancho Seco, Folsom, & Berryessa.
Didn’t retie after that 7 Younder! And lost the magic Spinnerbait… dang it! Beautiful Delta monster bass!
Its good to see you throw more spinner baits. Looking to see some flukes in the late summer and fall
Gotta get on the fluke game for sure
Great as always. That 7.5 was a hoss.
Great day pre fishing, Greg! It looks like you found my spot! 😂
haha funny thing is I've fish here probably half a dozen times and never really did good until now lol
Greg what a fish bro!! I thought it was another 13" fish, until it started to fight near the boat. That was awesome, good luck in the tournament. Love the Delta Tournaments. 💯 🎣 🛶 🌊
Haha thanks man, right there with ya - I thought it was like a 3-4 pounders until I went to grab it out of the net haha
Small fish spell a bright future!
The potential for Giant Florida strain Largemouth, on the Delta is phenomenal. Caught a lot of big bass on blades, but my POB is an 11.4 oz. toady. Caught it fluttering a 5/8 oz. Rod Strainer spinnerbait, on a riprap bank at the back of a large marina, 3 miles north east of Buckley Cove. hint...
Was just out there today, where I was at had so much debris! Wish it was cleaner water like where u fished at. Guess need to find a new launch. Great catch! Hoping I land on a biggin soon as well
Extra high tide try throwing the whipper snapper
Coffees ☕️ 🔥 let's gooooo
Younder 🔥🔥
Gregs one of those guys that catches the winning fish on practice day.
Good morning guys.........coffee and donuts..
Damn, that one that broke you off looked like you swung on something serious! I could here your mind saying why TF did I not re-tie. Beautiful fish. Good luck on tournament day.
🤜🐡🤛 gotcha!
Holy smokes... Geez Louise! Greg, beam me up.....
That’s My favorite spot, I’ve caught my pb out in that area
Lmao "intrusive thoughts" " I wanna throw it at the camera" lmao * throws it at the camera 😂 26:06
dam freaknig windy for 7am lol usually its not till 11am in FL
LFG!!!
Get that frog going when it gets shallow👍
White spinnerbait it is!
Always retie after a big fish... Line stretch, and micro-abrasions of the line.
Come to Minnesota
I cant be the only one who saw the ginormous fish in the water at the left front of the kayak at 22:09???
🎉
7 younder!!!
Greg can you please make a video fishing Eastman Lake.
Giant for sure, and it does probably edge out your Otisco largemouth... barely. (The Otisco reaction was WAY better though!)
Haha for sure. It's all relative. That Otisco fish is probably 1 in 10,000 where a fish like this on the Delta is 1 in 500 (well maybe more like 1000 this year atleast)
@@GregBlanchardFishing I’ve lived my entire life in the finger lakes area and I’ve never heard of a large mouth that big. We get big brown ones as you well know, but largies over 6 are exceptionally rare, and your reaction to that fish tells that same story.
Hey Greg, would you mind sharing with me the exact drop-shot worm that you were using the color looks awesome! Thanks again for the vids keep them coming
☕️ 😎
Nice fish.....Im still wondering what the holes in the bottom of the yak are for....seems to let a lot of water in.....Nicely done sir
The scupper holes?
Can you make a video of your current rod setups, your favorite lures/baits?
Coming on up! Did one recently and will go live on the channel 7/11 though I try to list/link all relative gear in the description
@GregBlanchardFishing me and my father in law love watching your videos, you inspired me to go out and get a kayak to do some delta and lake fishing too! Keep up the amazing work!
I know you like throwing a Senko, and you should keep throwing it but, you really should through a 7 inch instead and you'll see more of those big bass.
THAT WAS A FUCKING HOG HOLY
Every video I've seen weighed on water the scale bounces, no wonder they don't count it on records.
Greg... where about did you launch 🤘
Thanks for another banger Greg! Man the Delta has always been tough for me, everywhere looks good to cast! By the way, what knot do you tie? I notice there are two tag ends from you cutting through a loop.
i have good luck when i let that spinner bait stall and fall sometimes...also mix up cadence..
This is my first time watchingi your video's. Great video but wow I'm surprised at the water you're carrying in that kayak. I fish an OldTown 120 so maybe it's just because that is a larger yak. I fish saltwater on the swFL coast.
This past year here in Cali has been my worst year of fishing…
Where did you launch at greg. I think I know where that at but not too sure if it’s true. When you went under the bridge we was just on the shore a week ago on shore. We couldn’t go over the bridge so we fish right by the bridge
tiki
Do you have a blue gill colored spinner bait or bladed jig? I would try that this time of year.
Greg did you re-tie after you caught that 7.5 lb bass. If you didn't and broke off on the next fish that would be bad tournament day. I felt the pain in practice.
negative and you can bet I retied a whole ton during the tournament!
@GregBlanchardFishing Awesome and thank you for answering
Beautiful bass!! Hey what tide app do you use?? Thx!
no app but like to browse willyweather.com and search tides
☕✊🎣
What size hook are you using for your dropshot setup, if you don’t mind me asking
Just curious, and I’m sure you’ve answered this many times. But what kind of trolling motor thrust does your kayak have? What battery are you using? And how much run time do you typically get from it? thanks
