Replacement arrived!By the way, I did forget to mention that the original lure did have a decent strike however as most anglers will attest you can get a hit kzfaq.infoUgkxCbNOWAGmn6nfbCbJDmasvBq7J38KZNw2 and fish will hang on and release lure. I used the replacement lure yesterday and ran thru a Shimano Waxwing, Kastmaster, Bobber (set to sink). I found the does run deep (I casting on the flats 3.5'). Make sure you adjust your rate of retrieve and rod tip angle (up) to prevent getting snagged on bottom. Used it a couple of times and action was very lifelike (looked like local bait fish for trevally), craftsmanship very good....however eyeball fell out. I asked for replacement and it is on it's way! It was very easy to change out treble to single inline hook.

You never know about those small areas. I caught a 17.5” largemouth a year ago out of a creek very similar to this one (there’s a Father’s Day fishing video on my page from that day), and 17” smallmouth on a couple occasions. Majority of people just go after panfish with tiny lures in these small areas and are missing out on the chance at 15+ inch bass

My dad used to take me with him to a small creek in the 50s and using his old Pflueger level wind and a heavy fiberglass rod, and a Tiny Torpedo, Hula Popper or Jitterbug (about 3/8th oz) and he would catch bass, Rock bass, and green sunfish with a lure nearly as big as the fish. Occasionally he'd catch a bigger one and even a time or two a redhorse sucker would bite it.

Watching that part, where he got a big ole tangle on his reel, was, in it's own way, almost painful to watch. I could almost literally feel the frustration and anger that John must've felt. This is why I don't even HAVE one of those blasted things! I'd rather take one, throw it up in the air, and use it for target practice! I'm much more comfy with an Open-Faced Spinning Reel. Use Berkeley Braided Power-Pro line, around 10Lb. Test line. You'll have great success with it!

I was wading/fishing one of these creeks in Alabama....got to a spot where the water flow was fast, almost rapids....and saw the biggest cottonmouth I'd ever seen being carried by the current right toward me....I went to move and slipped and the cottonmouth bumped right into my bare leg (I was in shorts) but it bumped into me, sorta bounced off, and then simply flowed on downstream. My heart almost came out of my chest.

I know that feeling, I was wading in my neoprene fishing waders, it was still dark, sun was just coming up, but it was black. I felt something bump into my leg, then it started climbing up my leg. I was terrified, I fell down trying to get out of the water. It was a muskrat, it tried to climb up my waders, it’s nail got stuck in the neoprene, it was pissed, I had to use my rod to keep flicking him to get him free. It was harmless, but it scared the crap out of me.😂

Great video brother and I like the risks you took with baits. You may have caught more with the hellgramites but then sacrifice the bigger fish bite. You were spot on when the bass follow the Whopper Plopper or swipe at it that says something. And I like to switch to the Popper. In my opinion it ticks those bass off by lingering in front of them as opposed to a drive by. Keep getting after them. Blessings John

I'm glad I'm not the only right handed guy who uses a left hand crank casting rod. My buddies think I'm nuts. My go to creek lure is a F7 Rapala in black over gold. A little light for a casting rod but I prefer a spinning rod in creeks for casting under limbs and such.

Haven’t gotten out much but did get the kayak in the water. Got a few little perch but mostly it was a trial run for my husband’s raft. He after another. had me turn the head on the trolling motor and attach a mount on the bow so he could face forward without having to twist around to run the motor. Not a complete failure but not that great either. He was also trying some new seating but it put the center of gravity too high and reaching over the side dumped him out twice so back to the drawing board. We went today to a boat ramp we knew we could fish off of and have fun. Caught a ton of pumpkinseed sunfish one right after the other. He’s been catching pike there too, 3 the other day, but he didn’t want to work that hard today. Some of the sunfish were as big or bigger than my hand and 1.5 inches thick. A fun relaxing way to spend a few hours.
