I’ve hucked a big swimbait on and off for the past few years without any lucky. But today…I stuck a good one on it!

Looks like you discovered the swim bait bite, awesome video you guys look like you were killin it
Where is this lake?
I ordered the swim bait but it doesn’t look like yours
excellent video, where do you launch on delta usually?
Try the jr version !!!! It is cheaper and better.
Met obdie at Eastman yesterday some chick backed into his kayak with her car
Awesome! Nothing like that first big swimbait catch!
Hi nice video i like it
I also have youtube channel
Please support me
Please "video comment" my channel
thanks everyone!!?
Maybe a bit of a strange question, are you wearing NRS Boundary boots? If yes, how do they fair in warmer weather? Would you recommend them?
Congrats on the swimbait fish! The gantarel is a great swimbait just make sure you swap out the hooks the stock ones bend out real easy.
the gantarel kills
What spinning reel do you use and line?
Hell ya ya bro very happy for you bro. Got sumthin for you. Shasta bass baits on face book https://m.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1651533565111846&ref=content_filter
Hands down Greg one of your best videos this year! .. You guys looked like y'all had a blast! .. Really enjoyed this one brotha! .. 😎😎
That fish at 6:20 looked like it was just a Spot that's been deep a while. The fight it put on looked typical of the footballs.
Awesome!!! What a day man!
Haha congrats on your first swimbait fish! Gantarels are dope baits. Swimbait fishing can get addicting and expensive real quick! I'd try tossing a MS Slammer or a rat lure next time you're out early morning. Might be pleasantly surprised. 🙂
Killer video. Looked like a ton of fun. Friends, cold beers and the bite was on!
Nice one on the big Swimbait. I have only thrown them a couple times. Maybe I need to break them out again.
Great video! Looks like you guys had a fun day. Loved growing up camping and fishing lake Berryessa.
Tight lines
What drop shot hooks do u use?
Yo Brutha how about a vid covering yak and gear security while on the road. U travel with the family and a PA14 & an Outback. Bringing the yaks and gear indoors isn't a practical solution. Thanks for the great videos.
i need to know. Hobie pro angler or native titan?
Looks like those bass just wanted to eat that day
Awesome
Can’t believe that’s ur first swimbait fish ever! Love that bait, have the same one in ghost bluegill 💯👍🏼👏🏼
Nice video! That swimbait must be a blast to fish with!
What kind of line do you use on your drop shot reel?
Great video, Greg! Really enjoyed the friendly competition. You guys had one heck of day!
great stuff – really did turn on after the tournament.. We are headed up there this weekend.. (yes we are not doing YAB)
Makes me wanna go get one, must be nice to be able to throw expensive swimbaits and not worry about toothy critters stealing em 😂
Oh man. That was awesome on thr swimbait…ive been contemplating on getting one but this video gave me more inspiration. Awesome day of fishing
I enjoy your channel, Greg. Thanks for sharing your fishing trips with us. Great quote and so true: "The fish, they're just bitin', they're just bitin'. Can't take these days for granted!" All the best, Gordon
What setup rod you using for drop shot
Awsome bro
Awesome video! Berryessa is by far my favorite lake so far!
What is Mike using as a tackle box?
Once again your making me want to skip surgery and go fishing.
What hook and size hook are you rigging on that drop shot rig? It looked like a Trokar and if it is are you tiring it wit a polymer knot or a snell?
Awsome man
Nice swimbait fish! How’s the camping area for that lake? Thinking about going up there to fish and camp.
Love that lake. North side is were it is at..it got some MONSTERS in it..cool vid. Looking forward to the next one. Fish on!
Ganteral got my first swimbait fish as well! Awesome job man!
Hey Greg did you just complete the bass trifecta I think you caught a smallmouth a largemouth and a spot way to go man!
Awesome video. Hurts watching while at my desk for the day!
What an evening video! Nice Greg. Can't wait to get in my yak and start tournaments!
NICE first bass on a big swimbait!!!
