The Creek Crawler
United States
Приєднався 17 вер 2015
The TUG is my DRUG. An Ohio Angler who pursues the small water BIG FISH!! I go after anything that swims. I also create how-to videos for newer and experienced anglers alike. I have been crawling in creeks and walking river banks searching for that big bite for as long as I can remember! Join me on my journey and let's catch some fish!
ABSURD Fall Feeding Frenzy on the Great Miami River!
October and November can be incredible on the river! The smallmouth are schooling up and chasing bait in the shallows. Fishing from the bank can be super rewarding this time of year as you do not necessarily need a kayak to reach the feeding flats. Come along with me, as I recorded a handful of short bank fishing sessions in October and Early November. I also wanted to say THANK YOU to all of the folks who support the channel. We achieved my goal of 10k subscribers before year's end!!

Buzzin' For Smallmouth Bass on The Great Miami River!
Переглядів 1,4 тис.Місяць тому
Fall is upon us here in Southwest Ohio and the Buzzbait is a fish catching machine. The baitfish are smaller and the smallmouth seem to key in on small baitfish and chase schools of fish in shallow water. I decided to go out and target some smallmouth in a shallow run on the Great Miami River. I am not the best at throwing a buzzbait so please leave any tips down below. Get out there and enjoy ...

I FEARED the WORST when I found this on my wade trip on the Great Miami River!
Переглядів 18 тис.3 місяці тому
I recently completed a short Wade trip on the Great Miami River before all these heavy rains. The water is super low and clear, and it's easy to single out cover in the middle of the river and find some nice smallmouth bass! I happened across a sunken kayak and feared the worst outcome as the river has been a place of tragedy these past few years. Enjoy the video! Make sure to use my code for t...
Rainfall in the SUMMER can have the Smallmouth Bass CHEWING!
Переглядів 2,2 тис.3 місяці тому
Anytime during the summer months, a solid rainfall will get the fish moving and hunting. This was a perfect example of a float trip I completed recently after a solid rainfall event. The fish were aggressively eating the 5-inch trace and crushing the larger 4.25-inch hellgrammite dragged along the bottom. If you have rivers and creeks near you, a little rainfall can turn those dreaded summer gr...

Winter Smallmouth Fishing on the Hocking and Great Miami River!
Congratulations 👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏 good luck 🍀
Catching that Drum was a cool surprise.
Always nice to get a surprise catch!
Those Spotties are eating very well in that creek!! They are some plump rascals lolol!!!
Those little spots have heart for sure!!
Fishing has gotten really rude in the last 20 years. I was fishing a tournament a few years back and a boater got 50 yards in front of me and just started fishing like it was just another day. I couldn’t believe it. Common sense is a dangerous thing to use.
Common courtesy isn’t so common unfortunately. It was obviously intentional. He had plenty of space to go around the boater and not affect our spot.
Love your videos! If you had two-two hundred fifty dollars to spend for a great all around combo for kayak fishing what would go with? I want to get a 3 rod arsenal to take.
Depends on if you want a spinning or casting setup. Also, if you are in Ohio you can use my code at Vance outdoors and that $250 can stretch a both further!
That was dope
Y’all had a wild topwater bite!!!
The bench off was to lure you into the house, then out comes the chloroform rag, the handcuffs and you’d be getting your fudge packed. Think of John Wayne Gary.
The bench off challenge was wild to me lol
🔥🔥🔥
😎🤜🏻
The wolf pack on video was special👍
It was so freaking cool to be able to see all the fish! Typically you see a couple followers but seeing an entire school of smallies like that was special!
Awesome video! Keep'em comin bud!
Thanks!! That was an exciting day on the river banks!
Epic video man! Thx CC!
Appreciate it!! Enjoy the fall bite!
Enjoyed the video! Good job buddy!
Appreciate it David!
I have only seen that senerio in a river 2x and it is definitely a magical experience I re-live often. Once was in inches of water in fall and once in high waters of spring. Those micro jerkbaits are a must for rivers. Which one were you using??
I’ve seen wolf packs before but never this large. Probably 10-12 fish I counted in this one. It was crazy!! I was throwing a little lucky craft b freeze jerkbait. Tiny little thing
Let’s go! Thats what you call a hot fall bite 🔥 🎣 SUBBED!
Thanks for the sub!!! I enjoy the content you put out too!!
Awesome content my fellow Angler and the bite is still on in the Dayton Metro areas on the GMR in November. Let's go in Jesus name/God saves the "Dayton Metro Smallmouth Slayer"🙏🙌🗣🕊🔥🦅🎣🐟.
Absolutely!!! I went out and got a couple bigguns today! Good luck out there!!
@thecreekcrawler It is all divine purpose one way or another my fellow Angler, much Love in Jesus name/God saves🙏🙌🗣🕊🔥🦅🎣🐟.
Bro the wolf pack got me fired up too 😂
I’ve never seen a wolf pack that big on the river. It was wild!
The next minute plus after 8:10… 😳
What we live for!!!
Wow an excellent compilation of late October fishing. Sweet!
Thanks Steve! I just floated the river today and found some big ole river bronze!! Stay tuned!
I absolutely LOVE this channel! I get to spend time watching what i enjoy most --catching smallmouth bass. Vicarious hooksets are the best when you can't get out and do it. Thanks for taking us with you. Great stuff. TLF
I appreciate the support as always!!! You always leave awesome comments!!! Thanks for watching!
What is the swimbaits you used in vid
That’s the 6th sense 5 inch Trace slow sink!
@ thank you🙏
Wow nice smallies!! Looks like fun WTG👍
Thank you!! Can’t beat some sight fishing in the fall!
👍😎
😎🤜🏻
Grew up fishing the Great Miami! Great video
It’s a special place for sure!!
Had a feeding frenzy today at the mouth of the whitewater river...caught 12, 11 on a 130 whopper plopper shad color...caught 1, a 6-7 lb largemouth on a BIG topwater walking bait...Evergreen Shower Blows 150...thank god for cell phones, no one would believe it 😂 all Largemouth & spotted bass..no smallies this time, surprisingly....something special about big bass & BIG baits
Heck yea!!! The little shower blows is the deal!
I had frenzy all year
Outstanding day!!!!
Definitely been having fun on the river these past few weeks!
Congrats man!!!!
Thanks man!!!
Just got back from Barren River lake 11/15. Water was down almost to winter pool but fishing was good. Welcome to BG!
Man I should have went back to the lake! I had some great fishing there on day 1.
Dayton? My hometown,! Lotsa good fishing close-by,too bad downtown Dayton aint as good as it used to be..see ya on the river sometime!
I live just south of Dayton now!! Back on my home turf!! Love the GMR!!
Great performance man! You deserve it
Appreciate it man!!
I’ve never been to that lake
It’s grown on me. The last time wasn’t so great!
Really happy for you brother and how it seemed to come together at the end. Like you I wasn't sure how 4 fish were going to place you but they were all solid bass and the bonus kitty. Great job B, looking forward to what the 2025 season holds for you. Blessings
Man I will take that. Another fish and were talking a big payday lol.. maybe next year!
Was the lake down due to the drought or just normal winter draw down? Congratulations to you and the 7 other qualifiers. I suspect there will be a great time had by all.
It was very low! I think 12-13 feet down. I can’t wait to get down there!
Great job buddy! You proved that never giving up can pay off! Congratulations! Thanks for sharing this with us!
Thanks David!! I have had a few derbies this year where it came down to the last minutes!
One of the very best kayak finesse fisherman! Congratulations… High Noon
I truly appreciate that!! I’m getting better at this kayak thing.
No thanks on the "youngfishing" channel.. went over there and i didn't get no pointers.. I like how you mention baits and gear.. . 🎣 🤜🤛
Thank you!! I’m always willing to share. I’m sure Bobby would in person.
Congratulations, my man! What a great way to finish the season.
It truly was. Thanks for watching!!
Huge congratulations!!!!!!!!!! 🎉🎉🎉👏👏👏
Thank you!! Super excited to go to Texas!
What a way to end the derb buddy I'm very excited to see what we can show in Texas. Either way it goes we should have a killer time. Fish on brother!!!
Man I’ve watched hours of Fork videos.. I can’t wait!
@thecreekcrawler me too lol but every one is fishing completely different than the last. So we definitely have some options
Congrats! Well done!
Appreciate it!!
Congratulations to you and all of the qualifiers. Good Luck
Thank you! We’re excited to get down there and represent Ohio!
Great job CC!
Appreciate it!!
Tight lines!👊🏼
Thanks man!
This gonna be funnnnnn
Duuuude I can’t wait!
WTG CC! Cant wait to see the video in Texas! Let’s freaking go is right! WooHOO!
Truly appreciate it!!! I’m stoked to catch some Texas Giants!!
Fourth place, let’s go
Missed a check by a kicker fish and qualified for the Natty!!! I’ll take it!
Which fishfinder is that it kind of looks like a hummingbird I don’t know what model but if so is your transducer modified?
That’s the garmin 73uhd sv and the transducer is mounted on the bottom of the Oldtown. They have a recessed area so it’s super nice
👍😎
😎🤜🏻
Never give up never surrender always keep fighting by casting until the buzzer goes off and look what you did 4th place finish yes sir! Congratulations that’s what I’m talking about great day of fishing thanks for sharing this tournament and can’t with to see how you do next spring in your championship event! Tight lines take care and God bless!
Yesssir!!! Almost like a buzzer beater! So stoked!! Thanks for watching man!

Disappointed, went to Vance’s Hebron yesterday and would not give me the Crawler15 discount
Message me on instagram!! They should have had it worked out. Some folks say it’s working and others get a different experience. I’m thinking it’s a cashier communication thing.
Congrats
Appreciate it!
