    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. John thanks for taking us along on another Creek Fishing Adventure. - Tennessee Smoky

    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.

    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
