Күн бұрынHaving booked this trip months in advance, I’m finally returning to Clear Lake, CA for some late spring/early summer bass fishing. Two days on the water at the Bass Factory with Dutch aka “The Coach” to try our luck at some of the healthiest fish in North America.

Makes me happy that nearly every lake in CA have higher water level makes my family happy. We camp every year and on the water almost every weekend during summer days. We all got into fishing this year (even having our own derby, thanks to you and your boys, I came up with that idea for my family.) Can’t wait to see what your fishing journey will be like this year. Still looking forward to en episode of the humble beginnings with the Dark Horse squad. 🙌 (that is the name right? LoL)

Mr. Greg . . . WOOO HOOO, another lunch break watching your new vid while eating my sandwich at my workstation😃. Really glad to see the "Clear Lake 🦨has left the building". Can we get another WOOO HOOO 😜? Loved the underwater footage. When applicable, I hope you'll do more. Both you and Mr. Dutch had me chuckling 😆🤣at the end . . . Mr. Dutch fixin' to "play hooky" . . . "under the weather" enough to NOT go to work, but NOT "under the weather" enough to go fishing (hoping it isn't Covid related 🤞). Looking forward to Day 2 footage of this Clear Lake adventure and hoping Mr. Dutch does feel better.

Ok..literally 2:35 minutes into your video Greg and I’m already drawn in. Authentic, well done, professional and as always I’m sure the fishing will be on point. A Louisiana boy living in West Texas…I really miss the water. But life, God and work have me here surrounded by the best people I’ve ever met. We have been doing more eternal fishing these last 15 years, but man you take me back to the smells, sounds and feel of being back where there is water to fish. Be blessed. I love yours and the guys content.

Clear Lake? It's so polluted they recommend you do NOT eat the fish. And the stinch is horrible. I was told it was a 'resort area "? Broken down trailer's galore, tweakers and sadly disappointed. And this is recent?
