    I honestly thought I was the only one who actually targets these. Theres something oddly fun about exploring a small stream with an ultralight rod looking for big creek chubs.

      Not true, in a creek i go to to catch bait for catfish, i use creek chubs for the bait, and in order to catch good bait, you have to weed through bass and sunfish to get the wanted bait.

    Grew up catfishing and perch fishing my whole life. Stopped fishing for a good bit of my early adult life. Got back into fishing about a year ago, but wanted to catch some new so I decided to try bass fishing. This has become my favorite fishing channel, hands down. We dont even have creek chub in north louisiana and somehow you make catching these baitfish interesting. Also help that you dont have that typical vlogger/youtube personality that most of them try to portray. They are fun to watch most the time, but alot of popular bass fishing channels are exactly the same. Same bibe and personality just a different face catching the fish. Your different. Refreshing to watch one of your videos..

    Fallfish are sweet too. They are basically creek chubs but their sides are all silvery, no stripe. They're more of a game fish imo because they're the top predator native to most of the big creeks and small rivers in their range. They're few and far between which makes it pretty exciting when you get one, they can get massive too.

      I mainly bank fish, and I have gotten to a point to where I get excited when I find a tree laying in the water, especially bass fishing. 1 it's a great spot to fish around and also doubles as a very narrow, very sketchy dock. In creeks this can be critical for increasing your cast range. Luckily I've only fallen into a creek once from a log.

I fish for eu chub wich grows much biger my pg is 3 kg pryty big for a chub.

    about 10 maybe 11"if we stretched it ,we used to slay them that size when we were kids. Even then we learned the each whole would only hold up to a dozen chubs the rest were other types of minnows. always did best when you could see bottom as the chubs like to hide under rocks with the crawdads. Don`t forget you can eat those creek chubs.

    There's a creek about .75 miles away from my house that used to be home to some monstrous creek chubs (around 10 inches on average). But after a lot of floods, this year's drought, and a booming pike population, I haven't found much for baitfish at this creek aside from bullheads. Better times 2 years ago. Better times.
