i forget just how pretty that area really is when the water is up and flowing so hard during the rafting season... But when the water is low and you can see all those pools, and the structure of the river; its a master piece of the lords creation. And then you have the amazing wild life, and the incredible fishing ; like we just witnessed and you are overwhelmed. Praise God for the many gifts we have and let us never take them for granted. Another outstanding video John and thank you for continuing to entertain us. God Bless and GO KATS!!!!!!
That is such an cool place to fish!!! Smallmouth are my favorite fish to catch....and also eat. You should do a catch and cook for Smallmouth. Love you new kayak too!!!
I can not say it too many times....you have the most perfectly beautiful places to fish as anywhere in the world! Thank you for helping a lot of us that either have no good place to fish or still stuck in winter....or both!!
Smallmouth fight like crazy. This is a great channel. Been goin back through watching some of your older videos again. Hoping you hit 100,000 subscribers if not more this year. Tight lines!
Would love to have a few of those smallies also some of those b-u-t-ful rocks. I love the dappling water made. I believe this is one of the best-looking rivers you have fished. How could anyone think our Lord didn't make places like these for all to enjoy. Bless you, for making my day so enjoyable. Your videos keep getting better all the time
Nice productive outing, love the sight fishing bites. Gets the adrenaline pumping. My best topwater smally came across 25 yards of river in clear water to slam my popper. Jig bites are just as much fun. Thanks for sharing with us brother John.
Really great running into you at Douglas lake. Hope to catch up sometime and maybe do an overnighter catch-n-cook, share some fun and videos with the peeps. Smoky Mountain Outpost
Gone fishing tomorrow and Thursday hope cricks go down some know the smallies are moving up here. Watching you catch them makes we want to that much more God bless you John
Such a beautiful creek and beautiful healthy fish. Thanks for sharing this with us. Very much fun. See you are approaching 100M. Keep it coming. Also thanks for telling us about the work before the fish. Nice to know the amount of effort it takes to "find the fish".
Thanks for the great fishing videos. Thanks to my broken foot this is how I keep my sanity. Can't wait to hit up the Bass fishing on the Chattooga River.
The only thing about fishing clear water like that, is that you should keep a low profile. If the Fish can see you, they may not bite. But-If you sit down on the bank, or possibly a spot near the bank, but behind a clump of bushes or tall grass, you should catch more fish. Just a helpful hint.
I love the Ocoee river, if that is how you spell it, it is awesome for hiking, fishing and just hanging out. They intermittent openings for that you can picnic and enjoy. Nice job john ( I think that is your name) I love it! Great job!
Awesome video man! Would love to see you hit up parksville dam again. We keep trying but can’t have any luck there but I keep hearing stories of musky in there lol God bless!
Very nice!! Suggestion: Take your needle nose and bear down on the hook barbs. They'll usually break off. Much easier to get the hook out when barbless. You won't lose as you always keep tight lines!
I love when you fish these mountain rivers, reminds me of the time I went to Oconee county South Carolina. They had some beautiful spots like this, smallmouth everywhere.
John, have you ever rigged any craws or hellgrammites backwards to normal rigging and let them glide differently through the water. Gonna start trying this some myself. You have so many schooling fish you may have to throw an umbrella rig and catch 3 smallies at a time!
Dang those rock features are cool as heck!! I just bought another Hobie and am moving up to Chatt here in the next month.. your videos got me stoked :D
Have you tried the Zoom Lil Critters (craw looking baits) or ultra vibe speed craws? Or the zman craws, and strike kings ned bugs? They work great up here in KY.
As usual great video. Did you use your usual 1/10 oz. jig/ ned rig to fish the hellgrammite. Also, did you use an ultralight rod or something a bit heavier. Thanks for the video as it gives us all hope to get out of the pandemic doldrums.
ive caught redfish and largemouth with those kinds of deformations. Not sure why it happens, but the fish seem unaffected by it, still able to feed and fight like they should. couldn't tell a difference in take, fight and all that until they come out of the water and you get a good look at them.
John-You may already know this, but in clear water such as this, try using Low Visibility Fishing Line. Stren makes what they call Lo-Vis Line, and it's available in any line weight that you need. Just trying to help.
Ma'am, I know that I don't know you, but hopefully you won't mind my offering my condolences, and I sincerely hope that he'll get well soon. God bless!
I have spring break next week so I may have to take a little drive up there... I love the Ocoee so much and I’ve never even fished there. Which section were you catching all those fish at?
Man you need to go salt water fishing again. I spent 18 years of my life on the Gulf Coast. Theres nothing better than fishing those waters. So dynamic and such bio diversity. Cant beat it.
What name of first lure you was using an have fish in Scott county Tenn in these creeks just move up here last year I got check these rivers out up here
OMG! Water is so clear! Love the Go Pro submerged clips! Not certain how unbelievers can't see God's hand in this territory! Thanks for the peaceful moments! Keep rock'in!
This. Right here. Small river smallmouth fishing. It will forever be my favorite way to fish.
Those rock structures are amazing and that water was so clear. Beautiful video Sir! Got my first Rock Bass out of a creek this morning.

I just don't know who had more fun . You catching all of the bass { and trout } or myself watching you catching all of them .
That is such an cool place to fish!!! Smallmouth are my favorite fish to catch....and also eat. You should do a catch and cook for Smallmouth. Love you new kayak too!!!
Cool! We were just there this past weekend, camping (and fishing) at Parksville Lake CG. Caught my first 2 spotted bass (fishing newbie at 39 y/o).
The thrill of seeing them eat it is like nothing else
I can not say it too many times....you have the most perfectly beautiful places to fish as anywhere in the world! Thank you for helping a lot of us that either have no good place to fish or still stuck in winter....or both!!
What a beautiful river! Thanks for sharing.

Great smallmouth fishing! These are the og creek fishing adventures videos now!
Love it when you fish this river. Such a beautiful location, and so many cool features in it. Great video bud!!!!!
Sight fishing is awesome ain't it? You do seem to find the most paradise type spots to fish at. Great job on this video.
That is some beautiful water. I'm looking forward to seeing more video from this area. Thanks for sharing.
Nice productive outing, love the sight fishing bites. Gets the adrenaline pumping. My best topwater smally came across 25 yards of river in clear water to slam my popper. Jig bites are just as much fun. Thanks for sharing with us brother John.

Smoky Mountain Outpost
yeah man that would be fun
Maybe my favorite video you have done. Beautiful place, crystal clear water, and so many fish. Great job.
I've seen some nasty stuffs today, this beautiful river and big fish cleanse my eyes. Thank you!
Gone fishing tomorrow and Thursday hope cricks go down some know the smallies are moving up here. Watching you catch them makes we want to that much more God bless you John

I’ve been chompin’ at the bit to get back to the water and this has inspired me to MAKE time to get there! Great video John!
Thanks for the great fishing videos. Thanks to my broken foot this is how I keep my sanity. Can't wait to hit up the Bass fishing on the Chattooga River.
Yup, my friend, you dipped your hand in a cloud of liquid frog and her string of pearls lol. Nature is beautiful.
Good video John ...you have me wanting to fish over there now
I've got to get down that way sometime. Beautiful clear water!
The only thing about fishing clear water like that, is that you should keep a low profile. If the Fish can see you, they may not bite. But-If you sit down on the bank, or possibly a spot near the bank, but behind a clump of bushes or tall grass, you should catch more fish. Just a helpful hint.
Absolute Fire John!!! I live only 40min from there and will definitely have to try that out when the water is low.
Beautiful place and even more beautiful fish
Outstanding day of fishing! Those were some beautiful smallmouth, wish we had them like that around here. Great video John!
John, thanks for the vicarious fishing trip. After a hard of fishing I will sleep well tonight.
Thanks for sharing Richard. Always love watching you fish. May God bless you and all your subscribers. Thanks!
Richard's name is John!
@@tenncutt oh thank you!
Way to go , and thanks for all the walking you did and I hope to get to fish there one day.
That place looks awesome! Great job brother. God bless
Great video I have been trying to find some nice creeks to fish
I love the Ocoee river, if that is how you spell it, it is awesome for hiking, fishing and just hanging out. They intermittent openings for that you can picnic and enjoy.
Nice job john ( I think that is your name) I love it!
Great job!

I just caught a really big smallmouth with my dad today. Love your videos. Keep on making the great content.
Nice work!
You hit a fantastic spot. You caught soo many nice small mouth bass. They would be good eating. Definitely would go back to that spot again.
Nice beautiful creek, good smallies
I love when you fish these mountain rivers, reminds me of the time I went to Oconee county South Carolina. They had some beautiful spots like this, smallmouth everywhere.
What a way to start an awesome video. Thnx for sharin despite the rough beginning
Man, nuthin like seein em take the bait. In water that clear I reckon they can see you too. John your videos are consistently great. God bless.
We love it up there. I figured all those fish were in there but just never had a rod with me when we were up there. Great day!!
John, have you ever rigged any craws or hellgrammites backwards to normal rigging and let them glide differently through the water. Gonna start trying this some myself.
You have so many schooling fish you may have to throw an umbrella rig and catch 3 smallies at a time!
That place looks amazing. Beautiful spot. I am ready to go to catch some spring smallies!
You've been killing it lately!
Dang those rock features are cool as heck!! I just bought another Hobie and am moving up to Chatt here in the next month.. your videos got me stoked :D
awesome fishing brother ! i can remember when that whole stretch of water was "dead" not even a minnow in it .
Have you tried the Zoom Lil Critters (craw looking baits) or ultra vibe speed craws? Or the zman craws, and strike kings ned bugs? They work great up here in KY.
I always enjoy your videos! I especially enjoyed your everglades videos. Thank you!
Tennessee....God’s masterpiece! Another great outing! I’m waiting on my call to come join ya.
Michigan.....god’s country!
cool fishing trip, nice catches. Thanks John
Pound for pound, some of the best fishing in the world right there
As usual great video. Did you use your usual 1/10 oz. jig/ ned rig to fish the hellgrammite. Also, did you use an ultralight rod or something a bit heavier. Thanks for the video as it gives us all hope to get out of the pandemic doldrums.
medium rod and 1/10 oz jighead
ive caught redfish and largemouth with those kinds of deformations. Not sure why it happens, but the fish seem unaffected by it, still able to feed and fight like they should. couldn't tell a difference in take, fight and all that until they come out of the water and you get a good look at them.
I caught my first bass of 2021 on a cheap huggermitte that came in a creek fishing box from Walmart
OG fans will know that the first location he fished in already before
I think he caught at least a couple of Bass out of that spot, too, didn't he? I think that that was last year. Not sure, but I think so.
He has fished there atleast once before, possibly more
A tip : watch movies on kaldroStream. I've been using it for watching a lot of movies these days.
@Kobe Tate Yea, been watching on Kaldrostream for years myself :D
I love that dark green color on those river smallies.
John-You may already know this, but in clear water such as this, try using Low Visibility Fishing Line. Stren makes what they call Lo-Vis Line, and it's available in any line weight that you need.
Just trying to help.
That was awesome. The wind is a little bit of a pain in the neck. 👍
My ex had a vague tooth patch. Warmouth. Take my word for it.
Hahaha!
Hilarious, know the feeling he's not only a warmouth but a largemouth in the making
Holy cow you are putting in so much effort! Nice job!
Beautiful scenery looks like a lot of fun great video
The sceneries you get to fish in are 2nd to none
I’m new to fishing and enjoy your videos. Would you consider what baits you use and how you rig them
I've missed watching videos. My dad fell a week ago and has been in the hospital until today.
Ma'am, I know that I don't know you, but hopefully you won't mind my offering my condolences, and I sincerely hope that he'll get well soon. God bless!
Remarkable fishing. Gorgeous stream
watching over and over / thinking about moving to Clarksville, TN. near my brother there. wonder if I should?.
Beautiful area. Thanks for sharing
Great video, beautiful scenery. Do they sell nikko @ BPS or academy?
talk to us more about how you are rigging the Hellgramite please.
Great job as always John!
man that place looks special! I need to really come down there and give it a shot! I have some little jerkbaits that might just do the trick.
Fancy finding you here 😭🤘🏼 this guy is awesome
@@FishManTV1 Oh man I have been a CFA fan for a minute now. The creeks he gets to fish are stunning. John has commented on a few of my videos too!
@@thecreekcrawler that’s awsome dude!!!!
I have spring break next week so I may have to take a little drive up there... I love the Ocoee so much and I’ve never even fished there. Which section were you catching all those fish at?
the river parts above parksville lake
Man you need to go salt water fishing again. I spent 18 years of my life on the Gulf Coast. Theres nothing better than fishing those waters. So dynamic and such bio diversity. Cant beat it.
Love watching the fun you are having!!
Is this the year of the 5 pound smallmouth. Hope so
oh i hope so
What name of first lure you was using an have fish in Scott county Tenn in these creeks just move up here last year I got check these rivers out up here
If only I could walk John enjoying the video awesome!
Awesome man keep it up those smallies are turned on ...
Awesome. What a great day! That's how we like it.
Since the Spots are hybridizing with the other bass, does Tennessee want people to keep them?
Any trout in that cold water? There are supposed to be some awesome trout streams in the mountains is Georgia/east TN/NC.
What type and size of weighted hook are you using and we’re do ya get them from. For the hllmagrante thanks.
OMG! Water is so clear! Love the Go Pro submerged clips! Not certain how unbelievers can't see God's hand in this territory! Thanks for the peaceful moments! Keep rock'in!
Dude. When the frogs are locked in, don’t come a knockin!
Love the vids!!!! What pound test do you use when using the hellgie?
12lb braid and 10 lb leader flouro
East Tennessee streams rock!
Great job John!
What head are you using and where did you buy the hellgrammite?
Do you think that rigging the Hellgrammite "sideways" (weedless) improves your hook set ratio? Or is it just personal preference?
just the way i like to do it with the way the bait is made
Absolute beautiful place!!
Bend the barb down on the hook, you reel them in fast enough, they won't get off, also will make it easier to get the hook out.
That second fish looked like a shoal bass man! Check in to it.? Some one second me!
A Dalton classic!
Great vid! You destroyed those smallies with the helgrammite.
What a absolutely crazy video. Keep em coming. On a side note I love basketball too. Can't do big blue Nation though. All about UNC! Luke Maye for 3!!
At 7:40......Those two need to get a room !!!!...LOL
killer video. love them type of days.
