AMEN!!! My father served in the Vietnam War and lost some friends there. I think he would've appreciated those kind words. Thanks for taking us along on your new York trip...it was amazing.
That was some beautiful large mouth bass at the end. You were using my favorite rig. A Texas rigged Berkley power bait pitboss. The hot craw color and the California colors are great! I also use the Yum woolly bugs. They are very similar to the pitboss and also work great. I buy the watermelon red flake, the bream color and the ultimate craw color. Great fishing in New York Greg. See you back in Cali my friend.🙂🍺
I am with Greg thank you to all those that have lost loved ones that fought for this country and for those that gave their lives serving this country. So we can do the things we Love to do. Sincerely "The Dayton Metro Smallmouth Slayer"🙏🙌🔥🐟.
The most epic bass trip of the year can be when smallies are fry guarding. They will cruise within a foot of the shoreline and attack anything that hits the water. Casting a topwater within inches of the shore line is hard to beat. We have had 50 fish days, normally ,with top quality size. Its all timing…..
Yuuup Greg Killin It Blanchard LOL, that's your name now bro. Wow what a way to end your trip good job. You are truly a great fisherman. Thanks for taking us along bro.
I always get excited when you make your trip back home to N.Y. Great adjustments on the fly you always make the right decisions get ready to throw the frog in cali. Its almost that time.
Small, green pumpkin or some other natural color of TUBE! I’ve never fished up there but I struggle to catch smallmouth for the first 2 months after moving to a place that had em’. Saw people throwing tubes and only tubes so……… I tried a tube. Whacked em’! Now that’s my go to for smallies or baby brush hog. Lol
New York seems to be always be good to you Greg. Hopefully once you get back to Cali your luck will continue and you can keep hammering some large fish there. Cheers 🍻
It does get aggravating! Helgermights work well for beds! Tubes are smallmouths go to lure! Thanks for the scenery! U always manage to keep it fun! Have u done a top water show? U have the perfect scenery for it! Thanks for letting us be there with you!
Greg I am thoroughly impressed with your growth and maturation on the water. Most of us have not elevated to dissecting depth, water temp, bait selection at a moments notice. I know for myself I get locked into trying to force feed them my bait. So I applaud you!!!
Hey Greg another great video man you're always out here making the best content on UA-cam for the kayak anglers. I just want to let you know that you will become a huge source of information and inspiration for me to kayak fish more instead of going out on the boat and I have done way better fishing than I have in the past few years after starting to watch you enjoy your content man and keep doing great stuff!
That 6 lb. football fish looked familiar, I caught a 6.3 lb. bass looked exactly like that at New Hogan, and the picture they took of it was hanging on the wall for over 20 yrs..
Thanks for posting GB! Great vid. One thing, and you might already know this, but Rock Bass make some tasty Fish Tacos!!!! You caught some really nice ones.
Mr. Greg . . . Great conclusion to a SWEET trip back to your "hood". Hope you had some QT (Quality Time) with family and friends and "Thanks" for allowing us to experience your fishing journeys back East Sir. Wishing you HAPPY and SAFE travels back out West and looking forward to you getting back to CA bass fishing and you rejoining your Cali OGs 🤙!
Greg, out of all your trips home. This was definitely the best I've seen! Those fish were beautiful, and from day one to today's trip was Epic. Glad you had some amazing fishing trips up here. 🌊 🛶 🎣
Big Brown ones are my fav 👊😎 They are so hard to get to bite 😏 Another great video of how to stay after em and get em figured out 👊👊 VMC makes weighted wacky hooks that get down a bit faster 😎
Awesome video! Some nice catches and that was a hawg for sure. Thanks for sharing. Hope you're having a great Memorial Day Weekend. #GregBlanchard rocks!
Ok Greg. Its now decided. I have relatives in New York. Looks like a road trip from Alabama to see them so I can hit these lakes. I hope they don't mind.😂. After so many years of watching your video's, I can truly say the videos just get better. Soon, we all will be watching the "Angler of the Year" videos going," hey, we've been watching this guy for years lol😊😂! It's very possible and I hope it happens for you. Thanks for the New York videos again this year. Great content! Fish on brother!!!!!!👊🤘 #itsatank
Gorgeous toads! I know exactly how frustrating it is when bass don't want to commit when they're on beds. Aside from the wacky-rigged Senko, perhaps a Carolina Rig too? Those Rock Bass are funny ooking little critters 😊 Not familiar with East Coast cuisine, but I suppose the Rock Bass would make a good meal. 🤗 (Yes, you should have brought the net! LOL) Your videos do NOT disappoint - thank you 💖🎣💖 Enjoy your weekend! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
When you go back to New York, definitely hit Onadaga Lake! I remember back in the day you did a tournament there, it’s a amazing lake I will be hitting it in a couple weeks.
@@GregBlanchardFishing I ve had very limited success this season while my friends have been whacking em' .. thankfully I can enjoy your travails ... I look forward to you doing well in the upcoming tournaments .
@15:00 Man, that has to be so frustrating and tough. I was thinking that possibly something you should throw would be something like a swim bait that mimics those bait fish that are trying to eat their eggs. That way you can get an actual reaction out of them because they are afraid that you're swimbaits going to try and eat their eggs and then they go, grab it and push it off the bed.
In my opinion, this is by far the best video you've ever made! Although it's sad you're leaving such quality fish behind, it'll be good to see you pull some fatties out of the local California waters again. Keep up the the awesome vids!
Love your vids my man,but please bring the scale to NY next time.I gotta see what those butterballs are weighing!Dont think you could jinx yourself out there on your best five 😉
I’m just curious every time you went out hardly anyone was out. Here in Cali that is the one thing that’s hard to find. And you wouldn’t think so being your in NewYork!
Thank you to those who gave their lives so we can do the things we love 🙏 🇺🇸
Absolutely! I second that! Rest in peace to our fallen soldiers!
Amen brother. To my brothers and sisters rest easy and SCOUTS OUT......
AMEN!!! My father served in the Vietnam War and lost some friends there. I think he would've appreciated those kind words. Thanks for taking us along on your new York trip...it was amazing.

👍 absolutely
He caught three big bass that I'll never see in my bank fishing journey. lol.💯
I am with Greg thank you to all those that have lost loved ones that fought for this country and for those that gave their lives serving this country. So we can do the things we Love to do. Sincerely "The Dayton Metro Smallmouth Slayer"🙏🙌🔥🐟.
Greg.. If I could catch largemouth bass like that without a scale... I would leave my scale home everytime..😂😂 The Frye Guy.....
I love flipping a Pit Boss. In the Midwest black and blue is the ticket. Nice Donkeys Greg.

I don't have the words to say! I only can SMH WOW!,oh WOW!! 😊. It was all about your hook set.
Happy memorial day to the 🇺🇸 USA from Germany 🇩🇪.
That’s ironic 😂
Just wandering what you do for a job besides fishing and youtube? Love the videos every Monday morning to start the day off right 👍
He’s a physical therapist 🤙🏻
Really that’s cool
Yuuup Greg Killin It Blanchard LOL, that's your name now bro. Wow what a way to end your trip good job. You are truly a great fisherman. Thanks for taking us along bro.
$3.38 a gallon for gas! Lucky you. Our gas is higher than California's right now, which is unheard of.
OK, you come back to California. On my way there, I’ll wave to you in the air.
Nothing better than a weightless senko around bed fish
What an awesome day catching some brownies
I always get excited when you make your trip back home to N.Y. Great adjustments on the fly you always make the right decisions get ready to throw the frog in cali. Its almost that time.
Last portion of this video was SOLID. I would NOT of wanted to get off that lake. 😂😂
Congrats on all those donkeys you caught. Enjoy each video! 👍💪
I just knew it....Mr. El SENKO never FAILS...thats what i would of threw 1st...Love your videos...keep it up bro
"Shoulda brought the net" Comment of the video. Especially going for some smallies
Always love the videos!

Some of THE BEST fishing videos out on UA-cam. Hands down. This series in particular has had some bangers.
New York seems to be always be good to you Greg. Hopefully once you get back to Cali your luck will continue and you can keep hammering some large fish there. Cheers 🍻
Dark Sleeper in blue gill or a ned craw would have been a good bet on the bedding Smallies. Oh Caption Hindsight here! lol
Dang Bro !!! Those fish woulda been hard to beat in the tournament ... 👍 👍
I had never been a really big fan of bass fishing , until I started watching your videos greg.... keep em coming !! 🔥
It does get aggravating! Helgermights work well for beds! Tubes are smallmouths go to lure! Thanks for the scenery! U always manage to keep it fun! Have u done a top water show? U have the perfect scenery for it! Thanks for letting us be there with you!
I fished Cayuga and Seneca last week. Only caught one. those lakes can get nasty in a hurry. Wind ran me off both of them
Greg I am thoroughly impressed with your growth and maturation on the water.
Most of us have not elevated to dissecting depth, water temp, bait selection at a moments notice.
I know for myself I get locked into trying to force feed them my bait.
So I applaud you!!!
Senko is one of the baits I always use ,if the jig ain’t working.
Greg! Those Largemouths were TANKS! Love catching them on the Pit Boss! It would be awesome if you had a scale to weigh them!
Most under rated fishing UA-camr!! Keep it up Greg! You make me grind out on the yaks! 💪
Your videos are some of the best on UA-cam. Keep it up. The postings of even when there is a skunk are helpful.
thank you sir

Endings suck in general! However there are perfect endings! Thanks for your efforts .
Board, scale, net every trip. You never know when you’ll need em. 😂
GB at it again. Epic bite there in the final part of the video. Big fan of GB keep at it my guy.
Wacky senko is literally all i can catch on here in the finger lakes! Catching giants on it! 5-6 yonders!
Awesome video! Big bass didn’t want you to leave New York.
That 6 lb. football fish looked familiar, I caught a 6.3 lb. bass looked exactly like that at New Hogan, and the picture they took of it was hanging on the wall for over 20 yrs..
Can you do another video on how you rig and prepare for a day of fishing? Do you re-tie, change lures?
Wow! 123,000 subs already!? 👏 I start watching Greg at 12,000 subs lol.. Keep it going!! Can’t wait to see you back at the Delta!!!
Loved this New York series, Greg! Those giants on the last outing were the icing on the cake!!! Safe travels back to Cali🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

A FANTASTIC and AMAZING trip to The Home Skillet thanks for sharing your Vacation with us Mr Sir👊
Greg, out of all your trips home. This was definitely the best I've seen! Those fish were beautiful, and from day one to today's trip was Epic. Glad you had some amazing fishing trips up here. 🌊 🛶 🎣
The most memorable day of fishing! Another great video Greg. Hold on to the vibe for the next tournament.🎣

Another great adventure! And until next time, good bye New York 🍻 🙃
Great content in NY .Thanks Greg for sharing.
Great stuff Greg!
GB! I bet that bite recharged the batteries. Good deal man. NY series was killer this go round.
Fantastic NY series.....and what a great way to finish it off. Thanks for the vids GB.
Super day! Congrats.
Hair jig would be worth a try.
Those are some nice small mouth one of those would have been a personal best's for most anglers.
I've been loving these New York videos. Can't wait to see some next time you go back!
Awesome, Thanks for the ride Greg !!!!!!!!
Awesome video! Some nice catches and that was a hawg for sure. Thanks for sharing. Hope you're having a great Memorial Day Weekend. #GregBlanchard rocks!

I wish I got a chance to meet you while you were here, just hit Otisco recently and smashed a 7lb walleye. Your videos are awesome! Love your content💪
Hell of a trip dude, can't wait for the next NY series!
Greg rockin it no matter where he is. Caliman representing! Safe travels and thanks for the great adventures!
awesome vid! calm for days in my area I take the yak out today and bam steady 10+ mph winds :(
I’ve really been liking any heavier plastic fluke, work it a ton of ways and a fun mix up to the senko for me 👍🏼
I knew you were frustrated when you whipped out the senko 😂 nice vid!
Another great video!
What a epic end to another great New York series! Thank you for bringing us along!🤙
Another awesome video. Bigs 😊
Pheeww..would definitely be hard to get back on that airplane and head west after all the tanks you got on.
It was haha
Great series !
What a wrap up on an epic fishing trip! Congratulations on your PB's!
When you go back to New York, definitely hit Onadaga Lake! I remember back in the day you did a tournament there, it’s a amazing lake I will be hitting it in a couple weeks.
Man what a day!! Your the man Greg 👊
Man I love your videos they never fail to be amazing
Awesome catches Greg!
I haven't watched yet, but I'm excited for it!
I wish the east coast was closer to the west coast. But nope. I definitely want to fish the other side of the country someday.
I'm not sure how you can come back with them chomping like that ....good job Mr.B.
I almost rebooked my flight😂
@@GregBlanchardFishing I ve had very limited success this season while my friends have been whacking em' .. thankfully I can enjoy your travails ... I look forward to you doing well in the upcoming tournaments .

Nice lunkers!😎🎣🎥👍
@31:34 STAY ON BROTHER!
Felt like the opportune time to say that🤣
Wish you would have done best 5 to see what it would compare to your Cali best 5! They looked big!! G-Man is the best
Just another day at the office...😂🤣💯
if youre looking for smallies next time youre in ny. try keuka lake. another good lake for bass is honeoye. also some walleye in there.
Caught my first kayak bass last weekend, Memorial Day… made about 5 cast total, due to children… got a nice 2.5 on Wanita… on what? A weightless senko
Greg do you do your own reel maintenance or send them out for cleaning and repair. Or maybe abu sends you new ones.
In my opinion, this is by far the best video you've ever made! Although it's sad you're leaving such quality fish behind, it'll be good to see you pull some fatties out of the local California waters again. Keep up the the awesome vids!
Let's goo!!!
If you need anyone to take that Native for a spin for the rest of the year, I’m your guy. 😂
This was a very good video , sorry to see that you have to go
The other UA-camr from NY catches them on the Whopper plopper all the time on rivers .. Great video Greg..
Love your vids my man,but please bring the scale to NY next time.I gotta see what those butterballs are weighing!Dont think you could jinx yourself out there on your best five 😉
My sir! Is that sweet sweet gyo sun Hoodie ever coming back?! Must have my good man.
🎣
I’m just curious every time you went out hardly anyone was out. Here in Cali that is the one thing that’s hard to find. And you wouldn’t think so being your in NewYork!
Awesome Greg…I was thinking.. did you try Neko rig at all for the beds?
That was my call as well
Thanks Scott, I didn't. I tried some dropshotting and weightless senkos but nothing really
Can you make a video, or at least include in a video how you prefer to fly with your fishing equipment? Best way to transport rods & reels?
Thanks!
