    “Be stubborn as they are”- possibly the best fishing tip I’ve heard in a long time.

    • @GregBlanchardFishing

      definitely held true to get some bites on a stingy clear lake!

      They are, to every single person who comes in too. Doesn't matter who ya are, they'll help you out and answer questions all day. Great shop and there are a few other great ones around the lake!

    • @dannywalker5319
      @dannywalker5319 Місяць тому +2

      I was thinking the exact same thing. I feel like I could talk to those guys all day and learn so much. Might have to talk to them when my fishing buddy and I hit Clearlake later this year!

    • @timlawrence7246

      Clear Lake in general has some great old school feeling tackle shops, but Clear Lake Outdoors is top notch for sure. 👍🏻

    • @GregBlanchardFishing
      @GregBlanchardFishing  Місяць тому +5

      Agreed. it should be the number one stop for anyone especially those traveling from a far to fish clear lake.

    Great job on the giant tank of a 22.25. That had to make your day. Don't give up Mike, the year will turn around. Coach, get better, the crew misses picking on you. Keep up the great content Greg.

  • @yakventures9544
    @yakventures9544 Місяць тому +1

    You always shine on tournament day. Paying attention to little details like the night before tackle shop conversation gave you confidence in the local lore for the conditions. When you tied on the shaky head I had to smile because that’s a bait you’ve started using more of that is paying off. As always great content. Tight Lines Greg.

    Greg, definitely my favorite large lake in C A. as far as beautiful. And it does hold some big girls. It was nice to see you hook up with a few nice ones. Solid finish bro. Out of over 200 anglers. 💯 🛶 🎣

  • @granvillej3316
    @granvillej3316 Місяць тому +1

    Watching you fish this tournament today was better than watching the Olympics. I was cheering you on from beginning to end you had me at the edge of my seat. I feel every angler should take dock talk serious. Sometimes they can give some wise advise “ slow down” can work not only on the lake, but also in life. Thanks for bringing us another high quality video take care and God bless.

    Great job Greg in Hour 3 and placing 11th! 👍👍👍 That Big Fish made up for getting wrapped up on the dock. It made me feel better for the times I've cast into trees, and to see you have a similar problem - we're all human! Well done on flipping the results from your prefishing practice and snagging some very nice keepers during the actual tournament. 😊🎣😊

    I live in WA and spent a week there at a rental in Shirley Slough 3 years ago. It was late March and the water was super low. I watched years worth of vids on Clear Lake in a couple months prepping for the trip and 90% of the stuff I was ready to fish was out of play because of the epic low water. We still caught a ton of fish and a bunch of 3-4lb. crappie, which was nuts.
    Well worth the experience if Clear Lake has ever intrigued anyone. The abundant wild life in and around the lake is awesome also.

    Love that saying, "I like salt and pepper on my eggs, so they like a slime coat on their hidge?" I've only been fishing a year and thought I pucked at it until I started using scents on my lure 😅 always had follows, and those follows turned into bites.
