You know it’s gonna be a good day when GB releases a new video, hope everyone has a great day.
That's what I look forward to when I login to RUclips each morning/afternoon/evening
These past few videos have been the best production value Uhaul ad that I have ever seen. They should be paying you
☕️🎣🤙🏼 hope everybody has a good day
Mikes pic on the phone is hilarious. I laugh every time I see. I’m doing that next fish I catch. I’m gonna make all my friends use it.
I like these NY travel vids. My current situation doesn't allow me to fish anything far away. Watching what it is like fishing these finger lakes makes me want to visit some day in the future.
Highly recommend
This is the best birthday ever. Thanks Greg. 🎉
Happy birthday, Tyler!
@@GregBlanchardFishing and I get a reply. Woop woop 🙌
Good luck on tournament day Greg. Those finger lakes has alot of beautiful bass. Always enjoy the NY trips.🙂🍺
He caught more bass in this video than me going into this season on the bank. lol. 💯
Great way to start my day I’m really liking that kayak I’ll be upgrading soon good luck Saturday
After moving out here to the Rochester area 6 yrs ago from Sacramento CA I was worried. I grew up fishing the Delta, Folsom, Clear Lake, Bullards Bar, Comanche, New Melones and Berryesa my whole life where BASS is KING. I was worried I wouldn't find any good bass fishing this far north. I was worried it was all Trout or Pike fishing here....That's when I stumbled across your channel and thank god! I now fish Cayuga, Seneca and Keuka Lakes thanks to you! I even would stop the videos to see when you would launch from....LOL. There are definitely good bass in NY! Thank you again for the introduction. Also, love seeing the old locations in CA...
I had an occasion to bank fish Lake Cayuga about 30yrs ago. I think my third cast produced a 3lb smalllie - I wanted to live there😁
Looks like you found some promising water, good luck!
Oh my, I know you love Cali and your crew out there but wow , I'd be considering moving back home. You always do so well on the NY trips. Great places to fish 🐟 👌
Good luck on tournament day Greg!
Damn, that area in NY looks beautiful. Nice video GB.
Mr. Greg . . . Great way to spend my lunch hour at my desk; eating my sandwich and watching your vid 🤙. Good Grief, did I hear you say a BAD word at 14:35 😬? I haven't seen all your videos, but I beleive that is the first time I heard you use that expression 😜. Good intel gathering and I'm hoping that stretch and those other locations are productive for you during the tournament, and that you'll be the one breaking the 100" bag. Be SAFE and looking forward to your tourney vid and the continuation of your STELLAR 2023 tournament performances.
Let’s go GB GOOD MORNING FOLKS!
Hook check. Color change. Nice video bud. Thanks !!
I love having another video so soon from you. Good luck with the tournament. Remember, it's all about fun. You'll do well in it.
Thanks Scott! cheers
Missing the fish on the dock sucks. But if you're pre-fishing, that's probably actually the best-case scenario.
The magic dock!
Here’s to a good tourney! 💪🏻
You got this Gregg go out and crush them.😊
9:15, that was a nice one that got away. Damn, big mouth.😅
Another great video 👊 My experience with short strikers is the bait is the wrong color 😏 Same style/size but change color. That color water a black one would work pretty well. Don’t discount the chrome and black even on cloudy days👊😎 Lots of luck for your derby. I am in a derb Saturday on one of the biggest smally factories we have. Super clear water and Shad spawn should be in full gear. Got my rods rigged and ready. Tight lines yakbro 👊
Praying for another “magical day” on tournament day!!! Thanks for the video! Always a pleasure to watch your content❣️👍🏼
As soon as I saw “pre fish” I knew it was Cayuga. I need to get me a kayak
I'm launching from the same spot on Sunday 😊
Another great video with some great catches! Thanks for sharing Greg! #GregBlanchard rocks!
Oh man some tough choices! Can't wait to see how it all plays out on tourney day. Good luck and tight lines!
Welcome back East, Greg. Some nice fish caught so far; heres to your continued tournament success in the next vid. Be great if you convinced the fellas to join you on the next trip home!
I like the pros/cons of your lake grading system and you're right about the load/ unload time of Max10..main reason I bought one. Hope you do well in tournie.
Epic footage at 9.15!!😮😮😮
I love the skip cast under a dock
It’d be cool to see you and the fellas fish a derby out there. But good luck on the tournament and looking forward to that vid. 🍻
Man GB, making it look easy again catching those giants! Great fishing and good luck!
You should definitely starting working in some jerkbaits! The way those fish were biting I think you would have smoked them with a jerkbait...Love the videos!
Man thanks for showing all the launch points lol some of these I completely overlooked and pedeled my ass off
These NY bass have some great colors.
Greg, once again wow bro! I love the C,A, bass, but it can be epic up here. 90% of anglers are now using live scope. And you're still holding out. You have that awesome knowledge and skill we always see. G.L. bro. 💯 🌊 🎣
Everyone needs a friend like Mike Ensign that calls them while they’re fishing 😂
I got GB taking a top five in this one.I think a small glidebait around the boat docks would be dynamite but I'm sure he will get it done with his dedicated crank bait,chatterbait,and jig arsenal .Looking forward to the tourney
Man, I wish I would have been able to make it to this tournament so I could have met you lol. I'm still waiting on some stuff to come in the mail before I start fishing other NY tournaments.
Northeast vids hit different 🔥🔥🔥
another banger by GB
"EFK" you're killing me bro! 🤣
Pretty cool that Mike called you. Shows how tight you guys are.
It’s I treating some fisheries have long or short fish makes me curious why our lake has pretty long fish & they get big there was a record bass caught in the 80’s & recently a 10 lb fish was caught. California definitely has some good fisheries.
Greg is officially big time... he has U-haul sponsoring him now. :) Way to go sir! OK now onto the video. Edit still waiting for that "special spot" Lovers lane. :)
Greg is braver then me....I never pull treble hooks out bare handed lol one head shake and bam, now they caught you 😂
Here I am in Ithaca
I bet ya miss using that 705 fury I love that rod ended up just putting it back into my line up cause I missed it lol.
@9:10 pucker time!🎉
Only OGs remember the magical dock at 5:21
Every time Greg goes to New York I realize just how bad the lake i fish in Kentucky are
How do you feel about the kayak tourney scoring system? Maybe im a bit old school but i prefer the boat tourney scoring system where they weigh the fish rather than measure its length. Really gives you a good idea of the sheer mass of a big fish.
I think in a perfect world it would all go by weight but obviously super tough to do in kayak tournaments. The best part about Catch-photo-release imo is releasing the fish right then and there. I think it'll keep the fisheries healthy as its way less stress to the fish.
@@GregBlanchardFishing in a perfect world everyone would use the same scale and a picture of the fish being weighed would suffice but it seems there are too many variables for that too work right now. Hopefully technology will present a new way to measure fish in the future
🎉
Man those finger lakes look fun. Also, everytime you do this, I'm like you know you can use a net during practice too right 😂
Haha right? Im not superstitious but seems like I catch bigger fish when I dont bring it 😂
Don’t forget to try “magic dock.”
Another great video as always. Good luck on tournament day!
Btw…what is your average time it takes for you to load and unload when you visit another area?
Awesome vid! Hope you crush the tournament or at least top three. Go get em' !!!
U haul need to sponsor the new York season of Greg's video
Haha, that would be killer
yo greg, what kind of rod are you using for your cranking? i like the action of it, looks great for squarebills.
I just want to know....when you go across the country to fish, how do you bring your kayak/equipment?
Fortunately, I have a double of just about everything. The only thing I pack are reels, baits and some electronics
Obviously a very un fished lake. That's a good thing.
good lord idc if I lose I am never fishing those bridges in a tourney lol
Let's goo!!!
Do you prefer that eventually kayak tournaments will go by weight and not Length ?? Personally, I get far more excited when I catch a Big Bass by it's weight and not length. Of course this is just my humble opinion. What d you think?
Great breakdown on a practice day. What is the name of the line cutting tool you're using?
amzn.to/41Nn204
I just noticed on Mikes phone photo, he’s listening to fish farts.
Uhaul Truck=Automatic Victory
IDK if it's just me, but looks strange seeing Greg throw a squarebill. I am too used to seeing him hammer them on a jig or soft plastics.
You should do more under water footage
Hi Greg. This is probably note the best avenue to ask this question but how do I get in touch with Romel? I just purchased my first Titan and I’m ready to install all my upgrades. Thank you and looking forward to the East Coast Tournament content!
Did you try over by the locks?
People don’t understand how big & strong these fish are & video doesn’t even capture it when you actually catch fish even 3 lb range there a beast.
"it's a giant"
315 here
Ive been having a real hard time dialing in where fish are fingerlakes this spring.
One lake is so different from next and even off shoots if the rivers are so variable. Any one having luck out here and any tips?
I only fish Cayuga and it’s definitely been a little wacky this year. I personally think a majority of fish haven’t even started spawning yet. We have some beds on a flat right behind our cottage and no activity yet. Some have moved in no doubt to pre spawn feed. It’s definitely been a colder spring compared to the last few. Try fishing some ledges. Where I’ve had my best luck so far
@@Buckeye2043 thanks! Ive been on keuka and canandaigua outlets and i think some spots are in post and others havent even spawned yet
Swear to God everytime Mike calls Greg he always get bit. Should've made 1800ENSIGN hotline to help with struggling anglers. Would've made a killing 🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣
Funny, seems from all the videos I've watched and some personal experience, when the fish are committing, but being timid about a bait that a color change can turn them on. It's like the bait has a lot of the traits they want but the color just isn't quite right. I suppose the presentation could have the same affect.
Whats the knot you tied on that spinnerbait at 7:10 mark?
What's the motor on that one? Almost whistles like a jet, but also sounds a little like a hairdryer
How are you liking that dobyns rod
GB do you do travel PT or just use PTO??
What knot is that where you spin it around while holding the bait? @7:10
What rod action is best for crankbaits?
I made the video😂
What's your thoughts on the dobyns rods?
I was wondering if that was a dobyns Greg was throwing the crankbait on
What knot is that at @7:10?
Why are your scupper plugs pulled out? Looks like you are sitting in a pool
I don’t understand why you catch so many in a spot you wanna hit during the tournament 2 or 3 cool. But after that need to cover those hooks up
1st
I hate when I see you gill hook a bass and make no mention of it and throw it back to just die. I always feel so bad especially when they are big and healthy.
Bass gills heal pretty fast. That's why they have 2 sets. Anytime you gill hook a bass, the very best thing to do is get them back in the water as fast as possible.
I usually enjoy your videos but all the advertisements are not cool
Get a drone .
You know a bass is big when it’s got a forehead 😂 that’s my measuring stick.
Always get here about 9 hours late to watch your amazing content but always super while at work when that Ding notification pops up! Can't wait to see how all these tourney go this year! Question, when are the BASS ON BLUEGILL (SUN HOODIE) on your site back in stock? Been wanting one but keep missing out. Cheers!
