@PaulFerber 13 дней назад

The stress of running a RU-vid channel and fishing a bunch gets to you. If you are worried what we think when you fail, don’t be. Sometimes it’s refreshing to know you are human. I lose more fish at the delta than anywhere else.

This! We love authenticity

@jamescanady3442 13 дней назад

Greg calls himself a whiner for getting a little frustrated, lol. Meanwhile, I'm losing it and am throwing my hands up in the air yelling "HOW" every time a fish spits his hook 😆

@GregBlanchardFishing 12 дней назад

hahaha and they're alway bigger when the come off

@jordandanner8992 12 дней назад

The frustration moments when you loose a fish are my favorite parts. Not cuz I like to see you fish but because the it's makes the videos so authentic. We've all been there and react the same way.

@dfen2614 13 дней назад

Ik it was mentioned in a past vid but maybe increasing the drag would help pin those bigger fish on the spinning setups

@GregBlanchardFishing 12 дней назад

@scottbostic6247 13 дней назад

Greg, seriously man, you did fine. We make mistakes and who cares about the reactions you had to losing a few fish. If you feel better after complaining, then do it. We all know it's a pisser when that happens. You came back and did fine. Way to go man. Appreciate you and your videos.

@brucepreston3927 13 дней назад

@Bootsey517 12 дней назад

Honestly the frustration is where I feel the most relatable to you lol. We are human. It’s part of it all. All those dudes that are happy go lucky in every video sometimes are hard to believe. The delta struggles makes me feel like I’m not alone. Some great days and some very frustrating days. Never know on the delta lol. Great video

Dude, I don't think you are whiny at all. You are just expressing frustration. Anybody who tournament fishes has been there and will be again.

Congratulations Greg..! You're a great mentor for me, even tho I fish tournaments in Georgia, I still learn a lot from you.

@granvillej3316 13 дней назад

Welcome home Greg I’m glad you are home safe. Already jumping into a tournament. My heart goes out to you in this one each day brought you a different result expectations are always to come out on top! Maybe telling the fish you loved them and maybe giving them a kiss back into the lake might create a different type of attitude the fish have for you LOL! Seeing you hanging out with the boys and soon a complete full team showing would be awesome! Greg you are such a competitor it flows in your blood in your voice and your behavior but remember we just humans and life gives us highs and definitely gives us lows but it’s all how we respond and react from then that makes us champions! 5th place is still pretty awesome and something you can still smile about and at the end of the day we spend our day doing what we truly love to do and that’s fishing! Tight lines brother take care and God bless!❤

Watching this while getting boat license, banger as always

@lizsmith9948 13 дней назад

I agree with the others when we say you're not "whiney." I'm amazed you can keep your videos classy because I normally spew F bombs on the water whenever the fish become unbuttoned. At least Day 2 went a bit smoother. Tournaments are stressful in themselves because of time constraints and the human need to know how the other competitors are doing. I'm so glad it's not like Major League Fishing with the Score Tracker updates - that would drive me insane!!! However, thanks for taking us on the ride. We have our youngest son watching your videos too 😊

Exactly I was in a tournament one time and my partner made me lose a 8 pounder I was furious with him did fish for the next 10 minutes and if we had landed that fish it would have gotten us 500 dollars for the season the biggest of the year was right at 7 pounds

Everyone of us would be upset about losing fish...I don't see it as whining, more that you are beating yourself up for making self inflicted errors...I have noticed that it happens alot less when you take your time...When you do tournaments, I can tell that you tend to play the fish alot harder to the boat...It's understandable of course, but you just have to constantly remind yourself to slow down and just take your time! Anyway I love the videos and i'm excited to see whats next!

@petercheuk9019 9 дней назад

There was one fishing trip where it was an epic wacky rig bite but a few big ones got away after solid hook sets. And I was setting the hook hard after losing the first one. Much harder than I probably should have but I didn’t want to lose those big fish. I replaced the hook and the problem went away. Different brand but same style and it was a night and day difference.

@AllBassNoBrakes 13 дней назад

Just had a very similar backlash. It had been maybe a year and a half since I had one like that. Lucky for me I wasn't fishing competitively, but still such a headache to deal with.

They stay pinned over here in NY! I came in 8th out of 43 on seneca Lake last weekend! I was in 1st all day until people started submitting fish at the end of the tournament, and I dropped down. I was bummed I didn't get the win, but I had my best tournament in the morning of my career. And on seneca Lake at that! Notoriously, it was a bad bass lake, but it took 90 inches at a 19.5 big bass to win! I had 84.25 with an 18.75 big fish! It was epic!

I’ve noticed that almost every time you come unhooked you are changing you’re fighting angle at least 90-180 degrees in other words you’re fighting the fish to the left than instantly pulling it to the right 180 degrees that’s when it comes unbuttoned

Hi greg, just spotted why you lose some fish. I used to have the same problem myself. Once you get the bite, chill for a second, get yourself a good hookset and then you are good. Unless you have a very stiff rod, you shouln't reel into a fish to hook him in my opinion. Hope this helps, Love your vids by the way

@garykalus3779 13 дней назад

Simply put, the best of Greg's thinking got him where was in this tournament. The only thing missing was Greg wasn't beating himself with one of his rods. "Change your thinking, change your fishing." And a good dose of plain luck has a little to do with it as well.

@xNevlosx 8 дней назад

When small fish are eating like that you need to throw a bait big enough that the little ones can't eat it. If you have ever watched under water footage or even watching bluegills, the little fast ones often eat it because the are faster.

@mcbassinfaas7285 12 дней назад

@jgfleet 3 дня назад

Have you thought of tightening your drag a little bit? I feel like a tighter drag would help set the hook a little better when they take your bait. Good luck out there!!
