    Man...what a day! My dad used to say that "The best day of fishing is normally a lousy day for the fisherman". You proved it right there brother! Thanks for posting.

    I can't remember how long I've watched this channel. It's been over 5 years but easily this was one of those days we all dream of. I've only had one of these days myself and yes the weather was crappy as well.

    • @GregBlanchardFishing
      @GregBlanchardFishing  Před 14 dny +1

  • @dave_ske2482
    @dave_ske2482 Před 14 dny +7

    I think what I love the most about these videos, is that it shows what makes tournament fishing with a really good group of mates so fun. Thanks Greg, letting me live vicariously through you for another week until my next tournament.

    Dutcher"I'm going to weigh em!! Yeah I'm going to have like a twenty five pound bag and like a 100 inches and you guys will all think I'm the best fisherman ever!"... Little did he know that would be prophetic for GBs bag..little under really 😂

  • @bigkat650

    I love your videos already, great content. But to see your face after you caught that 21.5" is what brings me back to your stuff. So humble, just "one of us"! So cool to see.

  • @amorton94
    @amorton94 Před 12 dny

    That deer burger looked fantastic. What we love doing now is doing brat patties. We'll grind it and mix it like you would for normal bratwurst, but make burger patties instead of stuffing it in a case. Absolutely amazing. This last time for fat we used pork belly. Mmmmm. 10/10 recommend giving it a shot if those guys make their own stuff.

  • @jimmunoz1771
    @jimmunoz1771 Před 14 dny

    At about the 38 minute mark I couldn't help thinking of the old timer in Caddyshack, shooting the game of his life and then getting struck by lightning at the 18th hole. Glad you made it back the ramp ok. What an awesome day!

    That was an awesome ACTION VIDEO! There's a father-son pair in our bass club who usually have a limit in an hour during tournaments. After seeing you hook some fantastic bass, now I know how it's done! Congrats on 1st Place on Day One!
