That's why I like Creek Fishing Adventures - John keeps it real! lot of UA-camrs wouldn't include the first mile of fishing - the lack of fish and rough terrain - but John keeps it real! That's the way fishing is. The tough days make you appreciate the good, productive ones. Your perseverance paid off - in the end catching several nice ones. Thanks for sharing and God bless!
I couldn't have said it any better My thoughts exactly very good comment Great video too
Ever think people dont want to watch 20 minutes of nothing? Also he still cuts the hell out of the video so... lmao. Js. Still a good video and similar to the ones ill be posting once i get a action camera cept i fish for river brown trout mostly
"I should have turned back long ago, but I cant." 🤣
Dude, I know the feeling. That was like watching myself explore (struggle) through practically every overgrown trout stream here in SE Wisconsin.
Glad you pushed through it though. Sometimes we need those tough days to better appreciate the good ones!
Lol that’s great
For me its always hard to stop, turn around and go back when going through a creek or river. Always want to see what's around the next bend or even better maybe there's a honey hole around the next bend.
😆 I feel ya buddy I've done the same exact thing for 20 or more years. I'm always telling myself well I'll just walk around this next bend then I'll go back then 3 hours and 3 miles later I make that long walk back thru the woods and fields that always turns out to be all growed up briar fields 😆 🤣
John, I'd have to say this video took first prize in the category of either "work hard to catch a fish" or "or persistence pays off."
Going through some stuff, glad to see you again doing your inspiring best!! Thanks 👍
Now that’s Creek Fishing Adventures at its best! Thanks John for sharing that. Enjoy all this while you can!
I would have guessed that creek was loaded ! There's a nice creek near my house I've been eying to fish ,and your videos keep inspiring me!
i hope not
@@CreekFishingAdventures what
You are a very dedicated creek fisherman! I would have went around that log jam or went to another creek! I guess that’s why I’m watching your videos and not the other way around.
You definitely go the extra mile to catch fish. That's why I enjoy your channel. At my age, I probably wouldn't venture through all of that, but I enjoy watching others do it. I'm stuck in central Ga for 2 more years and then I will be back in Tenn to fully retire. I'm buying a nice kayak and enjoy the fishing. I'll be in middle Tenn so I will have lots of options. Keep up the great work John.
finally was able to find yum dingers in that color and caught 2 small mouth in a creek I never catch anything in 🤣💪💪
Yes to the gentleman who gave John a ride back to his truck thank you very much
it was a big relief
I like your approach to each experience being its own unique challenge! Great video!
Yes another creek fishing adventures good job keep it up
Love the videos
Remarkably accurate casting. You know you could teach a Casting While Talking class. Because we all failed the Hush Up While Casting class.
Go John! 🎣 nice catching 👌. You did great,kept going and found a great spot! Way to keep going! Thx for the adventure!🤠👍🤙
Being brave to go into cold water with jeans on to catch panfish is something i would definitely pass on. You on the other hand are more of a go getter no matter the terrain. My hats off to you
Holey moley! That is an obstacle course and a half. I was not expecting to see you going tree-climbing, John. Lol! So many downed trees. Must have been a tornado or two in that area at some point. I'd be scared of snakes climbing in all those branches in the water after that one trip where you saw 4 of them in that one tree. At least the water still looks mostly nice and clear. You found where the fish are, though! Great job, man! As always, I enjoyed watching!
Hey man love the vid, keep up the work
Happy your day got better after a little hardship. I like that you gave the full truth of it. God bless.
Worth it. That creek water was so clear.
I love Creek fishing, wading up and down them stinks and new obstacles every year due to floods, but still love it.... Great creek fishing video
As always great videos from you. Love what you do and do what you love. God bless.
Once again John awesome adventure a good end of the day as the sun is going down appreciate you brother
This one hits all the emotions. 😂 glad you got out of there. Loved it! It’s easy to sit here and tell you a better way. Ha
I was laughing watching you get through that giant tree. Next time go to the other end. There’s fewer limbs on the trunk end. 😂😂😂
Great job!
Nice spot!!! Love the markings
Those spotted bass are gorgeous. Great vid man
Love creek and river fishing!
John, all I can say is, welcome to our world! 😄
John this was a perfect example of what you always say. Get out and explore the creeks and you will be surprised by what you may find. I love these videos and one day I hope to be able to explore like that. Thanks for the adventure and the great action, God Bless aqnd Go KATS!!!!!
I love when the pools almost look blue. We don’t have water like that up here.
That tunnel is spooky - feels like a good way to get spiders all over you 😂😂
Something kept you pushing up into that creek brother. I may have turned back at the timber jungle gym but nope not John. That's what makes your Creek Fishing Adventures so much fun to watch. And you find a new stretch you haven't fished and BAM!! Smallies and Spots for your troubles. Great video. Way to follow your Spidey sense. Blessings brother
Looks like a storm and high water washed this creek out.. sometimes this happens when super fast flooding takes the big ones down stream to where the fish can find a safe hole in the deeper water in the bigger section of the creek.
I'm with you there was a lot of great looking spots where fish should be. Unfortunately they was home lol. But you stuck with the adventure and started to get into them. Well done sir🤝🏼
love these videos it goes like this sometime for me about all the time
Reminds me of the early creek fishing vids. Luv it
Oftentimes the paths least traveled lead to the best fishing spots. I've been to a lot of spots that looked really good but were overfished. Unless stocked regularly, common fishing locations get fished out. Congrats on staying the course and finding the fish!
That spot you caught right after the big smally is the prettiest spot I think I’ve ever seen. Awesome video man.
Tough start. Nice finish my friend. The smally was nice. 👍
Dang!!! You earned every fish getting thru that logjam!!!
Well worth the wait for those catches man good job, makes me wanna go find a random creek and just walk along the bank all day haha
Man John, I caught a 1 pound pumpkinseed in my local urban creek next day there was a condominium that dumped its pool water in the creek, caused a big fishkill in that hole. Man it was tough, that happens a lot around here, have you ever heard of that?
That's what a blessed day fishing is and thank you for the wonderful scripture and may the Lord bless you and your channel 🙏🏻
Last Wednesday evening after work I decided to fish a creek I've been near every day for at least 55 years of my 56 I've been alive. I've always wondered if it held fish. An hour later, 20 fish landed! I had to go micro-light to get them, 1lb mono, 1/80oz Mule jigs and 1.2" Mule minnows. The reel was a vintage Daiwa 500c on a Okuma Celia 5.5' rod. Mostly just diinker rock bass(we call them Redeye Bass up here in the Blue Ridge Mountains) and some hand sized gills
A tight line is a tight line! I've been smiling ever since! This creek is walking distance from my house 😊
man i bet that was a blast on that setup
Awesome video as always brother!
Cool video. Nice creek John. God bless you and your family.....🙏❤🙏❤🙏😊🙂😀
I've waded some gnarly rivers but this one takes the cake!
Persistence pays off, nice work!
It's good to know you can take the highway that is running along the river to easily return to your car.
First half of this video reminds me of me... hike 8 miles with we feet for a couple dinks LOL - glad the heat turned up on ya.
This fishing trip reminded me to work on my casting. Wahi' Valleys
Man that looks like a great spot for the little Topwater Frog. I’ve bushwhacked through some Gnarled up stuff to get to the River lol. Stay safe my Friend Semper Fidelis
Those fish had beautiful colors. 🐠
Fantastic video brother!!
Glad you didn't give up.
We've all had days Like this, but perseverance eventually pays off.
It started off rough but ended in a successful day.
Not huge fish, but all very healthy.
After all the rough terrain, how many bandaids did you wind up with.🤣🤣
Jim Dandy of an adventure. Patience and perseverance, Some times the bite is off and it’s frustrating, and people give up. The best, like yourself, work through it, figure it out and have their effort rewarded. Myself, I think there was a strong storm that rearranged the habitat and jinxed the fish.
Fishing was tough for me today caught 2 largemouths in 4 hours of fishing they was keyed in on dragon flys , frogs and bait fish . I usually catch 5 in 30 minutes
Now that's an adventure
Now that’s creek fishing! We would wade through brush tops and log jams and float our hats occasionally too...😆😆
that looked like alot of fun... cool video.
Beautiful fish. Love.the colors
It helps to hear it takes a while at times, to find ‘em
7:40 I knew that cast would catch you something.
Crazy how dynamic creeks and rivers are. This is the first year I've actively waded and fished the local river and this fall I learned first hand how fast those fish can move.
Found a new stretch with tons of grass in an otherwise rocky/sandy river. First two days I had 20 fish days and caught two PB 3lbs smallies. Went back two days later and got skunked twice in the same spots. Judging by the amount of grass coming up and presumably decomposing, I'd guess I caught those fish as they were on their way out.
Was a pretty big hit to my confidence though not gonna lie. Worst part is not being completely sure what the cause was. Maybe some days you just don't find active fish. All part of the learning curve I suppose.
The fish leave as soon as the grass start to die and head to deeper waters.
@@rynekhan8165 Appreciate it. Was hoping I'd get some feedback. That was my assumption too honestly. I thought about giving it another crack today but I'm probably better off going elsewhere.
@@jeremyowen1 the fish are always able to tell you where they are if you listen well enough , right now big ones will be close to deep water along the steeper drops , that’s your best bet with the colder weather coming thru. The fish leave the moment vegetation starts to die .
That's how my 1 hour trips turn into 4 hour trips cuz there's always that next hole that just looks to good to pass up.
John, good work. I agree w Pensnut08. Since water is cold, O2 should be good. I've seen the same on trout streams...mink do a job.
Plus, your observation about the dam preventing fish movement is a good guess. I suspect it will recover. SM are hardy and tend to propagate fairly well. I came for fishing and got Eiger Sanction.😎
What the WHAT! Look at that, those holes and still minimal fish!!! Very nice smallmouth though!!
This was incredible man. Such a hard spot to get to and they made you work for those fish!
I hate the feeling of wet jeans, I don't know how you did it!
John I grew up creek fishing and still love it. I am disabled now don't get out much. But you have helped me. The Scripture John It's the Scriptures they give me strength. Don't stop!
Well it’s good casting practice anyway…… We should call that one, Tire creek!
Great scenery, the fish made you work to catch them
Great video mister John love your videos keep up the good work and go catch some more big ones for us
That color looks like it's polluted. Sewage. Color reminds me of high nitrogen. Raw Sewage
@@sclewell777I am sure John would smell it if it were the case.
@@outdoorsforachange not if it wasn't a recent event. It settles on the bottom and causes that blue green color. If that creek flooded over summer it would have worked out but pushed the fish down where there is more O2. I did see signs of high water..
@@sclewell777 yeah I seen creeks that color after it rains , it looks pretty clean to me
@@LeviW133 I used to be an apprentice with the PA Fish and Boat Commission in my younger days. We were taught how to spot water pollution and I saw those colors of blue green and lack of fish and alarm bells go off. If there is to much rain in a community drainage system it will go thru the sewer because of being overwhelmed. I still think that the fish got pushed down to cleaner waters bc the nitrogen levels are to high.
I've driven my boat through a culvert like that tunnel you walked through on lake Hartwell
Some of the creeks around me have the perfect conditions for smallies but there are only chubs and gills. Still an adventure never the less.
Slog, Slog, Slog, reward.... Live seems to work that way often. Thanks John for Sharing.
You sure do go through some tough obstacles sometimes John.
Usually, I will give up or go around as some of these are not worth the risk of injury to me lol.
To navigate all that and to start out with a little to no luck and to persevere and finally catch fish they're anymore I can say Great video John
Yikes, John! I was waiting for either snakes to get you or a snapping turtle!!
Been there before climbing through everything it’s a workout. Just wished my water was that clean.
Creepy tunnel bridge. You definitely told some truths in this. Sometimes I feel folks don't realize we will walk miles for a fish and sometimes that's what it takes.
thats it
Really enjoy this. Wish there was 20 minutes more. 😁
"Adventure" is the operative word. Nice day's work 👍!
You came through after a tough day!!
Perfect cover for fish in his that creek?? Fantastic video brother!!
John "Bear Grylis" Dalton. What an effort. Glad it paid off with some nice chunks.
It's nice when it opens up to bigger water
I fished that creek A couple weeks ago and it’s usually got a lot more life in there by now but I was disappointed and didn’t really see a whole lot
So much of wading a new area is just seeing what's out there.
Did you see Online Outdoorsman's video where he shoots the docks for crappie? I tried it yesterday (except I was shooting under cypress trees) and caught some nice sunfish and rock bass.
Well not every trip can be cake with deep holes riffles and minimal obstructions.you still need to do the Calfkiller..thats a good day of vid some bank but some stretches will kayak fine.fun vid.musky in there as well.
i have kayaked a section of that river, caught a few bass
When John goes fishing an nothing hardly bites it gonna be a rough winter 😁😁😁
You need to work a little floating frog slow. I bought a 12 pack(various sizes) on Amazon for $15. Take the double up hooks out and put a wire weedless #3 or #4 hook down.👍
Chonky fish! Love it.
Those fish had some intense colors!
Weird looking stream...Why does it have that hazy hue to it. Almost like a radio active glow. Finally a Smallmouth and a Spot. Nice job working that creek John. Looks like you can access it back towards where you worked to. Curious what the stone bridge was for? Drive way?
I would say that was an old low water crossing since he could make out an old roadbed.
I bet they bite more on night crawlers and red worms, thats what bites near me the most, I try using some soft plastics/spinners/top and it’s always super slow but when I use worms on a hook I catch like 10-15 fish
Way to stick it out and find the fish. You got a video for your efforts!
It can be a slight difference in temperature and or O2 content, that can make huge difference.
dang what a grind,
you put the work in on this one - you are due for a big float down the right river
John thank you,it would take me the last 1/3 to fish2/3rd the beginning part never could have walked.what an adventure.7
Great video John some times the hunt makes it better
