    Getting back into fishing after several years. I have a very nice creek on the edge of my back yard, and several lakes close by. Pretty much wheelchair bound, but there are still places to fish. I appreciate your enthusiasm - it's inspiring. One of my first purchases was a pack of 3" Nikko hellgramites. Keep on doin' what you're doin'. Hope you have a great summer.

    Nice to see a guy using a bait cast and actually have the reel handle on the correct side. Drive me nuts watching guys switch hands every time to cast. REALLY COOL SPOT TO FISH BTW!! Stream fish always fight better then lake or pond fish.

  • @terrycunningham8118
    @terrycunningham8118 Год назад

    You're further south than me (PA) but the creek concepts are pretty much the same. It's mostly smallmouth, walleye, and muskie in our creeks but spinner baits of one kind or another, and plastic crayfish, leeches, and hellgrammites take most of the fish. I love working a hellgrammite or crayfish slowly, barely twitching it, and then seeing my line moving sideways without even feeling a tap as a smallie picks it up and moves off with it.

    I usually throw moving baits and slow finnesse too. Spinnerbait,crankbait,jig, some kind of zman trd or hellgramite,yum dinger or fluke. Thats pretty much my go to lures. Favorite topwater is a choppo and booyah padcrasher. I gotta get me some of those new hellgramites. 👊👍

    I recommend the eurotackle hellgramite. Maybe it's the pheromones. Maybe it's the shape. But it's my new go to for ultralight fishing.

  • @ronaldshank7589
    @ronaldshank7589 Год назад +1

    Looking at those Shoal Bass: The first one looked like a variant of a Smallmouth Bass, and the second one looked like a variant of a Spotted Bass. Looks like you had a great day of fishing, and the second Lure that you used, the (Hellgrammite?!?), looked to definitely be the more productive Lure that you used.

    • @daltonbradshaw1391
      @daltonbradshaw1391 Год назад +1

      Shoal bass ain’t nothing but a Georgia small mouth there’s slight differences they fight a little harder and slight difference in they’re build overall look the same

    I almost left the creek skunked a few days ago. I found a random bag someone left with nightcrawlers in it. So i started tossing one in. Best bass I’ve gotten over the last year on that thing. I am not too skilled with the lures I suppose.

  • @greenwoodsbushhogging6704
    @greenwoodsbushhogging6704 Год назад

    That right there is perfect for a rooster tail. Take the treble hook off and put a single hook, circle hooks work great, on it to help it slide around rocks.

    • @gregchilders7643
      @gregchilders7643 Год назад +1

      I like using circle hook for wacky rig but never thought of using on a spinner ,thanks for the tip

    • @greenwoodsbushhogging6704
      @greenwoodsbushhogging6704 Год назад

      @Greg Childers I did it as a kid because the last hook broke off my rooster tail. Now, I prefer it in a swift river. The fish usually snatch at it or run into the bait, so they typically hook themselves as you're reeling.

    The river bite hasn't turned on yet. I did get an 18.5 inch shoalie last week but it was the only good bite in a 4 mile float. I think I had the only shoalie posted for Team Creek but it actually got culled on Sunday when I broke 100 inches!

  • @slaptasagentas296
    @slaptasagentas296 Год назад

    I spooled it with 8 LB test mono for lighter lures, gave it some practice casts and found that it did cast well ruclips.net/user/postUgkxSlytCJqozTF7EbdP4LWP-HUXf9WRDJ0e , except that the anti-backlash setting had to be turned up almost all of the way to keep the "overcasts' ' down. I disassembled it, and found that if I potted some "shim washers" behind that anti-backlash magnet assembly, it got the magnets closer to the spool without rubbing, and I could get better control with about a 6 to 7 out out 10-Max setting. I also noticed that the handle shaft had some internal end play, maybe only 2 or 3 thousands of an inch, but it's still noticeable. If the anti-backlash and shaft tolerances were "tightened up" this would be a fantastic value. I've only used it for 4 days of fishing in a month's time, but I plan on keeping it.
