Great intro… first class cinematography! I remember your early videos, when you were just starting out, and you would set up a camera on a tripod and catch small bluegill in the creek. You’ve developed some great skills without losing the genuine excitement of loving what you do. It’s a rarity in this world and I thank you for sharing the journey with us.
Beautiful location for some kayak fishing. That black bear you encountered had his summer coat on. I wouldn’t be surprised if the bear jumped in to cool off a little. Wander if the bear can swim good enough to get into a kayak? He was obviously interested in some fish for his supper.

One of the best things about your videos are the nature shots of various wildlife. That separates you from many others in terms of interesting content. Nice work.
Some incredible looking green countryside with some beautiful water as well! We're always seeing dead and dry, so it's refreshing to see the green mountains. Keep up the great work bud, not many know what a grind it is to deliver content regularly....
I just wanted to tell you that I thought your intro on this video was the best that I've seen by far. Good job. Particularly liked the underwater footage.
I found a scalpin almost same exact color in a smallmouth bass in Potomac River yesterday on our kayak trip. Most of the time they spit up crawl fish and I assumed it was one but it was a orange tail hanging out his mouth 😂 of course I made sure he kept his meal and let him go happy .
Great quality in this video brother. You got to fish a couple different places and scenarios with good results. Again a video with snakes...I'm sure not following them around taking footage. Momma bear 🐻 with cubs are nice when they're on the bank and you're not. Saw my first ones in Canada and we cut the motor and drifted to about 30 yards away. They didn't skidattle until they smelled us since we were quiet. Back in the day for sure when the world was going to end 1999, horrible dial-up and YOU'VE GOT MAIL!! Blessings John
Great video footage! I suggest that you try a small soft plastic jerkbait like the Zoom Super Fluke Junior. Fish it weightless on a 2 ought wide gap hook. This has worked great for me lately.
Wow what a beautiful area and the wildlife say no more. It's not just the fishing experience for me watching your stuff dude. Yeah great job. New zealand rivers lakes and streams are very wild like that of course without the bears 🐻 😂😂
Yes, that was a water snake. You can tell by the vertical lines on its mouth that kinda looks like teeth. Thanks for the video! Just got out of surgery today, so I'll be stuck in the house for a while.
John thanks for sharing your day I’ll always enjoy your river fishing trips really appreciate them. How often do you feel you’re paddle slide into the river or lake and you not realize it lol? Tight lines take care and God bless!
when you see a snake swimming in the water, if their body is under the water, they are water snakes, If most of their body appears to be floating on top of the water, they are cottonmouth.
@@CreekFishingAdventures sweet ..l I went there and fished half a day like 20 years ago. Didn’t venture too far from the ramp but hopefully get back there some day. Are you a guide?
You’re like me; you always Texas rig. My buddy always asks me what I have against wacky riggin and I don’t know that there is anything except speed… always felt I could cover water faster w/ Tx. Do you have something against wacky John?
Does anybody know that the application mountains is actually a horror place there’s scary stuff there but anyways nice vid but also I have a soccer game later wish me luck
@@dougscamo2032 They are beautiful and truly unique. Those stories were made up to keep chuckleheads out of the mountains. What's truly scary anymore is living in major U.S. cities.
Such a beautiful Appalachian lake. Most of them are, but I guess I'm a little biased. My spirit would never survive in a big city. I've seen those Berkley baits in my local Wally, but I haven't bought any yet. That bear has been trying to fend for himself in the woods, probably not a trash can raider. Thanks for the WORD.

@@CreekFishingAdventures my son and I constantly find spots and often never catch anything even if fish are jumping out the water. Just wanted to make sure it wasn’t just us! Love your content man congrats on all your success and getting out of the trades haha ( I’m a carpenter)
Yeah they tend to thin up in summer time in the heat . Then fatten up starting around September through November depending on how far south. Here in western Maryland they start fattening up in August by October they are hammers 😂

Really needed this one Today, John. Been a busy day and need to relax. That looked like one hungry black bear.

Can't recall ever seeing water and countryside as beautiful as what you just opened with. Outstanding.
Appalachia is the most gorgeous mountain range in the world (in my opinion anyways)
@@countrifried PA here, I will second that. Several months ago I had someone tell me that they weren't "real" mountains. 🤣
@@bdickinson6751 Weirdos
@@bdickinson6751I’ve heard that before, I don’t bother to correct them anymore! We don’t need those folks around 😂
Some beautiful scenery there mate, very relaxing day, with a little breeze, & got to see mama bear & her pup, I'd say that's a good time!👍
Great music and even better edit John . Part of your success is your editing . Praise God for the talent .
That’s how I fish. I always have a pole rigged for the little guys, and I alternate back and forth.
Every time I don't have an exul with me, I tend to regret it. Makes it difficult when fishing muskie rivers since I also like targeting them.
Best intro ever! Underwater footage was incredible. Such a Beautiful area. Really enjoyed the snakes and bears.
All the commenters have basically said everything I would say. Awesome. Just awesome... scenery, footage, fishing and editing! Blessings!
Bears are getting as common as squirrels here in east Tn.
Same with northwestern Connecticut
That opening may be some of the best footage I've ever seen you take. Amazing intro.
Some incredible looking green countryside with some beautiful water as well!

Incredible intro with that beautiful scenery!!!! Awesome place to fish that's for sure 👍 👌
Beautiful! Congrats!
What a beautiful place! Thanks for sharing.
Haha. Laughing as you were chasing a snake. That guy was fast.
nice intro. underwater footage is fire. That bear is anything but "Big Ol'". He needs a meal. Great video.
yeah she was way skinnier than i realized at first
Great video brother! I don’t know why but the moment 1:02 when the fish comes into view along with the background music is killing me hahaha!
excellent footage on the intro! Looks like a good time up in the hills
Wow each video is getting better and better !! Great job all around again.
Great video. Beautiful location and fish. Enjoyed watching.
That’s a beautiful place! I would love to go fish them waters!
Glad you had a good day of fishing John 🐟🎣🐟🎣

I like that lure at 19:08
Beautiful looking area. We travel to East Tennessee about 3 times a year. After watching your videos I’ll be bringing my rod. From Ontario Canada
Great video beautiful place good luck John on your online tournament
YEA!!!
You finally got a new paddle
Hmm. I haven’t recently

Great video great scenery , you have a lot of great places you fish with great scenery, black bear was neat to see , thanks for all the great videos
Man that’s a pretty location !! Good video!
great video and great fishing!! hi John.!! have a good day and week. thank you for sharing and taking us along with you guys!!
If you see that many fish shallow you should try a super fluke!
Beautiful landscape!! The bears were cool too. The big one looks kinda skinny looks like it could use some fish.
Your videos are great and they keep getting g better. Keep up the good work!
Can’t wait to see you try the west coast.
Love it man! Looks beautiful out there great video!
John try this EWG hook, Gamakatsu Offset G-Lock Worm Hooks. Great video a full day of fish and momma bear and cub.
Dude , I had the same problem last weekend it's like these bass have produced paper thin, weak mouths as of lately. Great upload
Great video great area
Wonderful video and an exceptional intro.

I never realized that part of the country was so pretty
Which lake is that? Man your intro video was awesome! Great work my brother!

Great fishing

when im paddling it sets on my lap fine
This may be your best yet......
I heard the kayak fart with camera underwater 😂
Cool video, bro. Nice to catch..especially in different waters. Where is that..Kentucky somewhere? Keep up the good work. Fish on and Go Dawgs..
That black bear looked like it's smoking something. May need a sandwich 😂.
You said that one bait is a new Berkley bait. Is it the “drip minnow”? I want some of those! Can’t wait until they release them.
Nevermind, you addressed that later in your video. 👍
Is that Parksville Lake? Fished it a few years ago but it's been a while. Beautiful place.
no but similar
Beautiful place. Don't tell where you at 😅
when you see a snake swimming in the water, if their body is under the water, they are water snakes, If most of their body appears to be floating on top of the water, they are cottonmouth.
Try the Ozark Smoke color, you won't be sorry.
Could you shorten the Yum Dinger to avoid the short strikes?
if it keeps happening, mostly i should have let them eat it a little longer
There was and cup with that bear.
❤
Wow that’s some beautiful lake. Can you share the name ?

i dont like getting hung up, plus i can work my lure like a fluke sometimes to get bites, i just have confidence with it like that
Better sharpen that hook 😂
What lakes are these
Do you have braided on the reel?
yes
I love your videos but there is absolutely no way I’m chasing any snake.
🔥🔥🔥🎣🎣🎣🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Does anybody know that the application mountains is actually a horror place there’s scary stuff there but anyways nice vid but also
I have a soccer game later wish me luck
Lived in the Appalachian Mountains for 70 years. Ain't scary to us!

Your electric yak motor still acting up?
yes, i am waiting tom hear back from tech service
Do you ever go out and not catch anything?
yes for sure at times it happens

Would've been first but these dern bots beat me lol.
i just cant keep them off
God’s Country
Grade underwater.
Skinny bear. Not like the fat ones I see up here in CT.
It's summertime. Give them 3 months.
Yeah they tend to thin up in summer time in the heat . Then fatten up starting around September through November depending on how far south. Here in western Maryland they start fattening up in August by October they are hammers 😂
