I'm waiting for you to pop a 24'' or better smallie. It can really happen on the GMR around Hamilton and Ross on down to the Ohio River this time of the year.
My PB is a 25'' 7.8 lb GMR Smallmouth Bass that was caught on a Jitterbug at the old dam in Hamilton on August 2, 1983 and it was absolutely a huge beast. The precise location where this fish was caught was at the bottom of the levee right next to the dam on the B Street side. That one tied the Ohio state record for Smallmouth Bass which has stood since 1941. Someone finally beat both of those with one over 9 lbs out of Lake Erie in 1993.@@thecreekcrawler
Awesome float… you’ve convinced me to buy the trace swim bait after being on the fence because of the cost. Caught my first decent creek smallmouth this afternoon and I now understand why people love them. Such a hard fighting fish
Well Bryan if you are ever on the 6th sense website you can use my code and save a few extra bucks! Those jointed swimbaits are the real deal! Congrats on the catch too!
Went to one of my local rivers here in northwest Ohio and got shut out for the first time this year, but yes hopefully we still got a few more weeks before they shutdown completely
Nice day on the water! Just curious if you have fished a Sebile magic swimmer jointed swimbait on the river? I have a good amount from years ago and they used to work well in Canada. Thinking I should try in a river this time of year.
I fished this EXACT area (4) times this week without so much as a bite. Im clearly doing something wrong. Im going to try using the exact same lures as you next time. The helgramite seems to draw them in. Im turning into much more of a recreational boater than a fisherman tgese days.
My fav fish , bin watching your content for sometime now thought I would drop a sub your way...lol Winter is getting closer to where I am [ Canada Ontario ] so that's when I usually watch youtube and get caught up on videos.....lol Just fixing my pedal yak right now , problem with the pedal drive and steering...lol , it's an 8 foot pedal yak , 34'' wide and about 60lbs , made from HDPE , Great yak , just typical steering issues...lol
@@thecreekcrawler Yes always wanted a smaller pedal yak , after researching came across this one , It's called the Freeive Propel 8 if you want to check it out. I only do small rivers / creek so it suits me fine and ground floor aprt makes it easy living.
I’m from Utah and travel to Lexington Kentucky for work how far away is this amazing river? I could use some direction on where to fish on the weekends I’m there to pass some time
Pretty sure this is the little Miami river in Cincinnati, I grew up on it and it’s a solid fishery. Not too sure why everyone is keeping it a secret, but if your from Lexington try out elk horn creek it’s even more solid than this spot from my experiences
@@thecreekcrawlerI am in my second fall league event for Napra this weekend. Looking for those Giants in the morning on the GMR in the Dayton Metro area so this content definitely got me hyped up lets go in Jesus name🙏🙌🗣🕊🔥🐟.
Those are the NRS Boundary boots! I really love these things. So far I have put them through a good test. We will see after a year of use if they are really worthy.
@@thecreekcrawler that's hamilton county im in the city of hamilton between Cincinnati and dayton Is that lake any good its about a 2 hour drive for me just went to saint marys today and it was a bust
@@thecreekcrawler took my coworker to my little spot and he had never fished topwater smallmouth…first cast…Fish Ohio! You best believe I’m going out tomorrow haha
Dude that was so madness 🔥😂 Awesome day buddy ! Won’t be long and we can do it again 👊🏻
That double up was insane!! Looking forward to another float man!
Dude!!! You and Ryan were on a bite, smallies loading up for the fall. Nice bonus largemouth. The river was very kind to y'all today. Blessings B
It was incredible man!!
Wow, what a great float. Thanks for taking us along on a great adventure. Great video crawler.
Appreciate you watching Jeff!!

A 24 would be insane!! I’m on the hunt for a 21” river smallie. I know the stretches down past hamilton are loaded!

Great job , you an Ryan were hilarious. A lot of good fish, Let’s Go
It was a riot!! Thanks for watching David
That was some madness for a second 😂 Gotta love the moments like that
That’s happened to my buddy an I in GMR. His 20 mine 18. Caught 5 between us in a few minutes!
that's crazy!!!! I am just so pumped to had gotten the fish blowing up on the opposite bank!
Yeah it was definitely one of my most exciting fishing moments!!
Awesome job out there buddy! Thanks for sharing another great adventure!
Thanks David! It's been pretty active on the rivers as of late!
Not sure how I missed this one! I usually do well at keeping up! Looked like an amazing outing!
Oh man it was a special day on the river!! Thanks for watching Ben
You was on the gmr wasn't you? The fall bite is in 😁
That river is loaded too!
Nice, love smallies. You guys crushed it, tight lines!
Smallies are where it’s at man!! Thanks for watching
Love those kind of days
Me too man! River has been on fire recently
Nice double up. That’s awesome!
That 4 minutes of action was crazy!
@@thecreekcrawler yes it was.
AWESOME VIDEO MAN! Half time show with the train wreck was funny and I felt the excitement threw the video.
Thanks my dude!! Have you been able to get out lately?
@@thecreekcrawler not much but trying get out any chance I get before end of season.
@@waterratlyle2590 same here man!
What a great day on the river, really enjoyed watching you wreck em.
A day I won’t soon forget!! Thanks for watching and good luck this year!
I was out today and missed four nice ones on the dang rat switched to a plopper and got a 17 before I got out frustrating day for me
Hey a 17 is a great fish! I have never thrown a rat style presentation I know those smallies eat it up
I’m gonna say amazing day for ya that’s for sure … great video 🔥🔥🔥
Gotta get them in before winter starts! Thanks for watching Tom!

Thanks!! I bet they would work for ya in the rivers!
Ryan has luck like me 😂 nice video as always man 🤙
he is one of the luckiest anglers I know.
Nice fishin brotha😎💪🏼
Appreciate it my dude!!
Gorgeous stretch! Any reccomendations on the big darby? Fish up near Milford currently and have ok luck . In search of that 18+ .
Seems like you are on good water! I have done some bank fishing on the lower stretches with good luck!

Rivers can be hit or miss. Just try to learn from each trip. The Hellgrammite and Trace are my confidence baits in the rivers.
Where are you fishing, where is this?
@@briannac.5172 great Miami river. Greater dayton area but similar results can be had all the way down to the Ohio river
Looks like the Stillwater or Miami
Both are great fisheries!! Thanks for watching

That's an interesting size for a pedal kayak!! I appreciate you subbing to the channel! I am sure you have plenty of ice heading your way!

Slow sink or fast sink Trace ? Awesome video 👍👍
I like the slow sink because of the shallower water I fish!
@@thecreekcrawler Thanks I got both and I fish creeks a lot 👍👍
I’m from Utah and travel to Lexington Kentucky for work how far away is this amazing river? I could use some direction on where to fish on the weekends I’m there to pass some time
This place is probably about 2.5 hours from Lexington. I am sure there are some good places to fish that are a lot closer.
Pretty sure this is the little Miami river in Cincinnati, I grew up on it and it’s a solid fishery. Not too sure why everyone is keeping it a secret, but if your from Lexington try out elk horn creek it’s even more solid than this spot from my experiences
@@haydenhampton6986 The LMR is a solid river!
What Hellgramite bait do you recommend for river fishing
Nikko makes the best Hellgrammite on the market! I like natural, obsidian and mudbug colors
Ryan can't catch them😉. I am going to have to get a kayak so the Dayton Metro Smallmouth Slayer can get in the mix. Good stuff guys God Bless🙏🙌🗣🕊🔥🐟.
He’s alright 😂 you need to get in a kayak man. I’m telling ya it will change your whole life on the water! God Bless!

@@JbairdIG Good luck out there!
So what line rod reel setup do u use with the 5" trace?
I throw it on a 7’3 MH Fast action rod with 14-16lb flouro. Daiwa Tatula Elite 8.1
What are those high top boys you wear in the kayak?
Boots
Those are the NRS Boundary boots! I really love these things. So far I have put them through a good test. We will see after a year of use if they are really worthy.
Great work!!! do I net s jet drive to fish up there
Thank you. You do not need a jet drive to fish it
Hey buddy what would be a good and safe boat ramp that you recommend 👍
@@markmoretzfishing If you search GMR River trail you will find a map created by the Miami river conservancy with boat launches and ramps.
Thanks 🙏
Where did you guys put in at on the gmr?
The miami river conservancy has an excellent resource for launches on their website!
Nice videos. But would be nice if you let people know what water system you are fishing.
With respect to my buddy that took me on the float the most info I could give was the region of Ohio. My apologies my dude! Thanks for watching
@@thecreekcrawler I wondered why you guys were always vague about your location. Makes sense I guess if it's private land or something. Nice vid!
What river is this in Ohio? What’s the location?
This is a river in southern Ohio!
Little Miami River
Little Miami
What part of river do you fish? I live in hamilton by the river
I fish from Indian lake down past hamilton
@@thecreekcrawler that's hamilton county im in the city of hamilton between Cincinnati and dayton
Is that lake any good its about a 2 hour drive for me just went to saint marys today and it was a bust
@@johnz5055 I am sure there are plenty more options for lakes that are closer than 2 hours...I would not drive 2 hours to go there lol
So you going to share the name of the river?
out of respect for my float partner, I will not share the exact fishery but its in southern Ohio!
Just a couple of Ohio hammers out there doing it right
Appreciate it my dude!! You’re always catching some bigguns out there!
What river?
A river in southwest Ohio!
👍😎🎣💯
Thanks for watching Michael!!
killer
Thanks my dude! I am going back out tomorrow on the Hocking. Hopefully they are still biting
@@thecreekcrawler took my coworker to my little spot and he had never fished topwater smallmouth…first cast…Fish Ohio! You best believe I’m going out tomorrow haha
Cool beans I follow Ryan on Instagram I'm in Ohio to keep up the good work love the channel
Heck yea!! He’s a great angler!
Thanks for the support buddy @OCDFishing87
