The one good reason for fishing the creeks vs. Wide main river. CONCENTRATION!! Its much harder to find them in a wide river unless you are VERY familiar with it. The creeks concentrate them to very specific areas...the bank! Two to three ft. Near current is perfect. Especially if there is structure nearby. They are an ambush predeter😮. My experience in Virginia's rivers. Forty-five years roughly. Too old to cut the mustard now. So i stick to calmer waters. I sure do miss my river dog days!!😢😮

Just came across your videos and I’m hooked. I like your style, very conversational, great quality of video, and lots of action. Glad to see you enjoy the Lord’s creation. Blessings, brotha.

John I can feel the love you have for river fishing why you enjoy these river tournaments! You’ve fished these rivers for a very love time you become to know everything on the river like the back of your hand! You seem to be at such peace catching these smallmouth wow. It drives someone to want to you camp out and fish everyday, all day! Good luck on the tournament John I believe you’re going to do awesome and can’t wait to see your tournament content! Tight lines take care and God bless!

Awesome video brother. I've had a blast making videos and you are my favorite youtuber. My whole family watches you wear them out. Keep on catching them creek monsters and maybe we can fish sometime together in the middle TN area!

Welcome to the north John! The susky is a great river on the section you fished and way up north near the Poconos. I fish the northern branch every spring and first weekend in November and we do fantastic! Our record one day catch in November is 289
Caught my first 4.5lber this past spring
Records show the west branch is coming back it’s been the weakest part of the river system
Other small tributaries like the one fished are really good
Tight lines sir!

I love this river… living very close to it I fish it a lot. I’m planning on exploring more of it next year… it’s just loaded with Smallies! Great video!

Next time you are in PA, stop at Wawa for lunch. classic staple in the NJ, PA, DE area. Like Sheetz if you know what I mean. And get yourself a Turkey Hill iced tea….

Nice fish! It's amazing how much water you can cover with the motor.

[FishingWithZach]

Nice one John! I always enjoy your videos

Man! Ya got to hookin' & cookin' on them Smallies, Brother John! Loved seeing you catch that big ole 19+ inch Smallmouth Bass. Hope you had a great time up there this year.
In my own opinion, three of the prettiest fish there are, is as follows-
1: Rainbow Trout. I love the color schematic on that type of fish. The "Rainbow" design reminds me of God's promise, that he made with Noah.
2:Smallmouth Bass. The vertical bar pattern, and the mottled bronze design, is, amongst all of the Bass Classifications, not to be topped, and is totally cool.
3: Bluegill. The bars and colorization in this type of Sunfish, are not equalled by any of the color patterns of any Sunfish. For their size, they fight like little miniature Bulls! A Ten inch long Bluegill can easily weigh a pound, and it you're catching them on Ultralight Fishing Gear, equipped with 2 Lb. test line, present a real challenge to catch!
Those are my 3 favorite fish. Just curious-What are your 3 favorite fish to catch?
Have a great evening.

Cool man! I can’t wait to get a chance to fish the Susky👏🏾

Next summer take a trip to northern New York for the best smallmouth fishing in the world. The Saint Lawrence River has lots of 5 to 6 pound smallmouth.

[brianathern]

That river is amazing and the sheer numbers of smallies is mid blowing. We had to pass on a spring trip out there but we'll get that checked off the bucket list soon enough...God willing. Our northern range smallies are built different. 💪 Blessings John

[ABC-psel]

If you jig a trout magnet really hard or hard enough to keep it on top water, smallies absolutely love it
