I'm thrilled to see the lures I sent arrived and that you had success with all of them! 😀 Bonus that the hemostats weren't needed while using them. Thanks for another awesome video!
That looked like a pretty neat kit. I love rooster tail fishing creeks. I need to dedicate a day for it I have been trying new stuff this summer and have gotten away from my rooster tails. I use hemostats to get all treble hooks out. It’s easier and I want to continue keeping my finger treble free😂
Pulled out a 20.5” 4.16 pound smallie today in a local creek! I was using a 6” trace though lol. Not a rooster tail. This video makes me want to go back to the old faithful rooster tail for a day in a creek!
Here in ohio I’m finding it to be very effective. I personally hover toward bluegill patterns but the shad do well also. I caught a 5 pound largemouth three weeks ago on a shad colored trace. Many 4+ pounders this year. Worth a shot down there!
It really was quite a blessing! Got it on my GoPro. I have tons of footage just no lap tap yet but I’m starting a channel once I get a lap top and a name picked out lol
Great video man just starting to watch it I’m going fishing on Saturday hopefully to catch some. Largemouth bass that’s my fish to catch I caught a 3 pound 9 inch fish In the last 3 weeks
Found a new spot today. Couldn't get a bite, but saw some bass that are gonna be a PB for sure if I can get them to eat. Several looked 5 or 6 pounds at least. They wouldn't hit anything I was throwing, not even wacky yum dingers or nose hooked flukes. Gonna try a spook at daylight in the morning.
I've seen bass up to 4 lbs eat little 1/24 oz rooster tails. Back in the day we used to catch tons of pond and creek fish on these. Also caught tons of stocker trout on the Hooch with them.
I really enjoy doing the same type of fishing I see in your vids. You have taught me a lot about cast placement while wading.......I never used to cast to the middle of streams much, and I would bypass a lot of water without making casts. Your vids have improved my game.
I love to watch your creek fishing video's when you are wading. It reminds me back when my younger brother and I used to go wading up various creeks around Austin, Texas fishing when it was less developed. Happy day's.
Another great Creek Fishing Adventure with a classic small creek / stream lure. I love and have all of those colors. The rainbow/firetiger and black with silver highlights and nickel blade is my small water Swiss Army knife. Catch tons of fish with inline spinners. Glad to see you stalking up a creek with them tied on. Blessings brother John
Really like this video John this is more my speed. Love the sunfish and occasional bass good mix on lighter set up. Caught many good smallies on rooster tails. White was usually the best color. Thanks for the CFA and letting us walk with you. God bless.
I wish more lure manufacturers would offer a single hook option. Trebles are really unnecessary and can be dangerous when handling larger fish. I swap out most of mine and starting making my own in-line single hook spinners. Props to Roostertail and Mepps for the few they offer. Great video!
Agreed, clip off the treble and replace with Gamakatsu Siwash hooks. I prefer fly fishing but regardless I use single barbless hooks for any type of fishing.
I caught a 15 pound striper on a 1/6 oz white rooster tail on Lake Lanier in GA. Those things catch anything. I use them a lot on windy fall afternoons on Lanier (clear/rocky highland reservoir)
I fished that creek yesterday. South of the bridge looks good but didn't catch as many as I was expecting. North of the bridge as you round the corner, the fishing picks up. I caught a ton of redbreast sunfish, a few bluegill and a few rock bass but the fishing definitely picks up the further away you get from the bridge and homes lining the creek.
John, Thanks for another great video. Your videos always sooth my mind! And thanks for explaining a bit about the lures you were using. I can never get enough info from experts on what lures they use and why.
Love your content brother I have been binge watching your videos for 2 weeks. I fish creeks, rivers and lakes around me in VA. Gotta love the rooster tail.
Same creeks my sons and I catch stunningly gorgeous longear sunfish with bellies that are as orange as a Cincinnati Bengal's helmet with sky blue lacy patterns on top with those little 16th oz rooster tails.
Once I bet my cousin $20, that I could catch 100 bass in one day in our out of balance family 5-acre lake in NW Alabama, using only 1/16 ounce rooster tails fishing from a small boat with one oar. Caught and released 50 (probably would have been better to cull a few but I just can't) in the first hour and was well on my way, and he agreed to pay half if I quit, so I did. I didn't tell him that I was about to quit from the heat anyway. My only complaint about rooster tails, was injuries to fish when they swallowed the treble, now I see the solution...single hooks, thanks.
I have started crimping my treble hooks on my Rooster Tails and Panther Martins. Has helped a lot with unhooking. Only downside is that they throw the hook more often, and they sometimes fall off the hook before you can get to unhook it.
Sure did enjoy this video John, nice little creek you fished. I'm going to try these single hook Rooster Tails I think. 40 something years ago when I first started fishing for Trout in TN, we fished a small river with small Trout in it and I used a Panther Martin spinner. The Trout killed it but I missed a lot of strikes....so I cut one treble off the hook and my catch ratio went way up. Found that they could get 2 trebles in their mouth much easier than 3. Just a helpful hint if you don't do that already. Keep 'em coming man.....I'm enjoying your content.
You make me want to go start fishing some of the little creeks around me and see what lives there. Probably no 5lb monsters, but still looks like a blast.
Another great video hey by the way my great nephew watches you now he’s 5th grade just started fishing I shared your video with him he loves the videos and that you put verses up at end
Howdy, Brother John! Your Brother in Christ Jesus here, Ol' Ron. After watching this video, I must admit:It definitely takes me back in time, to when my Brother and I used to fish at a place called...are you ready for this?!? "Christian's Creek"! It was literally named that! We used sinkers and hooks to catch whatever we could, and, in later years, we used to go back, and try a mix of nightcrawlers and lures somewhat like you were using in this video. I don't really mind the Treble Hook setups on lures, but I think I might have had a lure or two, that was only Single Hook, instead of Treble Hook. The advantage on Single Hook setups, of course, is that they're easier to unhook from a Fish's mouth. The disadvantage was, that if the fish struck from a certain direction, and you only had a Single Hook on, then you could, of course, miss the strike altogether. Treble Hooks are somewhat harder to unhook from a fish's mouth, or whatever, but they have much better holding power, in terms of keeping the fish on the hooks, than a single hook ever will! Have a great day tomorrow, and God bless you and yours!
I prefer single hook for a few reasons, they don’t notice it, it does less damage to their mouth, and the hook up ratio is much higher compared to trebles.
I will use a single hook rooster tail every now and then in the delayed harvest trout waters here in NC. I have never had any problems loosing fish either and have caught some 20+ inchers on the orange
@CreekFishingAdventures_ ohhh yayyyy, the winner of a scam!! How could I have gotten so lucky?! Should I go ahead and post my credit card information and social security number in here too?!?!
Hey John, what do you think of 5” Gary Yamamoto senko?They’re more then the Yum, but I feel they have more movement in the water. I have better luck with Yamamoto.
I always wondered if there were rooster tails that didn’t use a treble. That’s all I’d ever seemed to see. Do they seem to get snagged less? I’m always losing lures
Yeah I have been changing over to singles on almost all of my hard baits too. I used some salt water lures red fishing that are rigged that way and it made me a believer. You lose less fish.
Johni love your videos but i have something to say. i am disturbed by your lacidasical handling of fish out of the water. do not keep a fish out of the water any longer than you can hold your breath. if you watch the pros the catch weight and release the fish withing 30 seconds. the mortality of the fish goes up by 50% for every 30 seconds after that that you keep the fish without oxygen. EVEN IF THE FISH SWIMS AWAY THE CHANCES OF ITS SURVIVAL IS REDUCED BY EVERY SECOND YOU KEEP IT OUT OF THE WATER. HOLDING A FISH TO COMMENT ETC. IS SIGNING ITS DEATH WARRANT. SO PLEASE BE MORE AWARE OF THE CLOCK. every second causes brain damage.
I'm thrilled to see the lures I sent arrived and that you had success with all of them! 😀 Bonus that the hemostats weren't needed while using them. Thanks for another awesome video!

Thanks so much, i will try to keep the hemostats handy for when i do need them

i need to try that trace

Me and my daughter used rooster tails for the first time in a LONG time and they slayed smallmouth for us! Amazing how the simple stuff works so well.

Those rooster tails look EPIC!!!! Another great video Jon!
This is my favorite kind of fishing, simple small creek multi-species. Great video as usual!
Thanks for the journey, John. Watch for those snakes.
love the white and silver rooster tail, ive caught most of my summer fish on that
I really enjoy doing the same type of fishing I see in your vids. You have taught me a lot about cast placement while wading.......I never used to cast to the middle of streams much, and I would bypass a lot of water without making casts. Your vids have improved my game.

Hey John you looked so sad when you had to turn around. I know that FEELING!! Especially when you knew there were more fish ahead. Tight lines!
This is the type of video that got me hooked on your channel
I love all your videos John, but these are my favorite by far!
I've never done that good with a rooster tail you made it look easy, alot of fish catches & you always manage to get at least 1 good one! 👍🎣

Like seeing the "old school" intro now and then.
Was thinking it would be cool to do a highlight reel around the end of the year/peak fishing season.

I did some creek fishing the other day. Good times.
I love your creek trips, however, I have to admit your tournaments are exciting. I feel your excitement, your pain, just like I am there.
got a 2 day state tounament coming up soon, im starting to get ready for it

yeah i have used the single hooked ones a few times, you might miss a few more but much easier to unhook
I have started crimping my treble hooks on my Rooster Tails and Panther Martins. Has helped a lot with unhooking. Only downside is that they throw the hook more often, and they sometimes fall off the hook before you can get to unhook it.
G’ya! Those loud insects are the sounds of a hot, sticky, summer day down south.
So glad I found this channel amazing content
need to get some of those single-hook mepps. a lot of the trout streams i fish are special regulation single-hook-only fishing.
Sure did enjoy this video John, nice little creek you fished.

Gotta have plenty of old tires to make it an authentic urban creek fishing experience 👍😃

I prefer single hook for a few reasons, they don’t notice it, it does less damage to their mouth, and the hook up ratio is much higher compared to trebles.
That last reason makes zero sense.thats the reason a treble is ran. Your hook ups increase? Who told you that?
I bought that rod you're using and it's now my favorite, such a comfortable handle! Thanks!
it is very comfortable
Haven’t seen the single hook Rooster Tail, but my favorite colors are the white and the yellow. Great video.
You can caught big bass on them and big trout and bulegill and crappie and even strips catfish everything on them.
I will use a single hook rooster tail every now and then in the delayed harvest trout waters here in NC. I have never had any problems loosing fish either and have caught some 20+ inchers on the orange
Another awesome video well done
Another great video John🐟🎣🐟🥰
Was using a blue fox spinner on monday in the local lake and caught probly 100 white and yellow bass
Got a nice 2-2.5 pound smallie on a sixteenth oz rooster tail a couple weeks back in Southwest Ohio.
Great adventure man.
Here in texas all of the creeks are dried up so hopefully the rain will come soon
thats a good thing about this area, we always get rain and the creeks have plenty of water usually
awesome video man
You’ll get better action on the single hook spinner depending on the water your fishing
Nice adventure 😎😀 Bro. John !! I would love to see a video of U fishing 🎣 from other direction ⬆️⬇️ !!! :)
Another great video!
Big spots on it too.
There is a lot of tires in that creek 😊
Those “dogs” at the end sounded a lot like a pack of coyotes running…had me uneasy there for a few. Be careful out there!!!
@CreekFishingAdventures_ ohhh yayyyy, the winner of a scam!! How could I have gotten so lucky?! Should I go ahead and post my credit card information and social security number in here too?!?!
somebody said they got a comment but i dont see the scam comments
@@CreekFishingAdventures the scam comments are gone now…but originally they replied to almost every single comment…
Hey really curious what rod/reel combo is used in this video? Id love to get one just like it
Great video
It really is a shame to see all of the tires and other trash in such an awesome creek. Wish people were more responsible when it comes to such.
Hey John, what do you think of 5” Gary Yamamoto senko?They’re more then the Yum, but I feel they have more movement in the water. I have better luck with Yamamoto.
i need to try those out
Good Job, Love your videos
Hi , Please can you tell me how many Grams have the lure , Thank You🙂
Thank you , i appreciate @CreekFishingAdventures_ ♥
Where you fishing at in this video
Now that's okd school fishing.
Wou ! Nice fishing Bud 🤘🎣

May have been cut out in the edit, but I kept expecting to see a 🐍. Cool trip either way...
no i didnt see any this trip
You can even caught them big enough to fo good in you kayak tormentmits.
I always wondered if there were rooster tails that didn’t use a treble. That’s all I’d ever seemed to see. Do they seem to get snagged less? I’m always losing lures
There are places where you have to use barbless singles for trout.
Big smallmouth on them too.
I was like number 1000!
I'm a single,finesse offset hook guy all day long. All the big shoalies I catch,I'd be cutting hooks out of finger every trip.
There is a Roostertail made spinner bait style. Check them out!
Bigger Sigler hocky would do the trick.
What kind of water shoes do you wear, or are they just regular shoes.
Water Shoes Columbia amzn.to/456tHVc
I've changed all my roostertails to single hook. Easier to avoid snags and far less damage done to the fish
Yeah I have been changing over to singles on almost all of my hard baits too. I used some salt water lures red fishing that are rigged that way and it made me a believer. You lose less fish.
🎣☦️🙏thanks for a pleasant evening
Everyone knows chartreuse rooster tails CRUSH
You have used a Rooster tail before?!
Me 2nd
You know I gotta be 1st lol
