Great multi species video with Caleb. It does seem like you and Bass Quest found some fish and caught a mess. What a gas! And some nice white bass and crappie after you start with a giant largemouth. Sign me up for that. Blessings brother
My brother and I went out last Friday with Bassquest! It was amazing! Hit my PB for Largemouth and my brother got his and a PB Stripe Bass (8lb on the money). Fantastic!! Love the content.
I can hear that 'ribeye in the sky' flying over. Is it ok to use live bait in a tournament? Seems like this guy could kick butt! I love live bait fishing but don't do it enough. Great video,!
What an epic day! I personally haven't had a day like that in over 10 years. Hope to see you fish there again! I was going to get a 2500 Nasci but after seeing you fish with the Miravel, I think I may get that instead. What rod were you using? I'll most likely get a St. Croix. I have 2 I use for light tackle fishing. A 6'9" Ultra light / fast action and a 7' Light / ultra fast action. Both are great casting and I love how they handle the fish after hooked. Blessings! Have a great Christmas!!!
Wish there would've been more of that Live Bait action! Maybe in some future videos, we'll get some with a Bobber & on the bottom. Nonetheless, the bites seemed non-stop, and multi species videos are the best!👍 Thanks!
Great video John ,that first bass was not bad ,crappie and white bass was not bad either. Good to see the smile on your face and the joy in your voice. Your guide knew where the fish was.
I subscribe to your channel but TH-cam has stopped letting me know when you have a new content. Stumble across just now searching for Oscar fishing in Florida of all things. Now I put you in my favorites list couldn't remember the name. Oh well I don't have to remember now.
Hey John love the work and the videos man and I can tell you are very experienced when it comes to fishing and im relatively new so here’s my question for you. In pressured ponds during the winter what lures or strategies do I use to catch bass?
@@mjw1615 if a body of water is pressured you need to show the fish something they don’t see often. Winter time provides its own set of challenges related to where the fish will be, how they stage themselves, and what their feeding habits are. Tactical bassin has a lot of invaluable content regarding fish habits throughout the seasons.
@@mjw1615 I fish a pond (35 acres) that gets pressured quite well... it's funny how fish will act when things cool down because my favorite approach is with something moving just to find out how they're acting. My go to used to be either a 1/4 or 1/2 oz rattle trap but they seemed to get used to it over the years so I switched to a Bass Pro Lazer Blade... basically, it's a non rattling metal lipless crank bait. This gives the fish something different then what they are used to. I have no idea why bass hit these baits when it's cold but they do. When they don't want the moving bait, I go to the Ned and it slays them. I like the Zman Finesse TRD and I need it to be weedless with so much wood in this pond so I go with a 1/16oz Hyabusa Ned Jighead and it crushes them. Sometimes I go in the opposite direction and go with the 12" Jelly Worm. The point Michael Gregory was making is correct--do something different. This can mean going small and using downsized finesse lures or overly large with big worms and swimbaits and Alabama Rigs. Basically, if the guys fishing your pond are throwing suspending jerkbaits and jigs... then you throw lipless crank baits and Ned rigs. If they're throwing Neds and Lipless, you throw tiny Jigs and Bladed lipless baits. Change the size, style, color or anything different. He's also right about the patterns... doesn't do any good if your'e throwing the lures where the fish aren't... the pond I fish is pretty shallow with 12' being about the max with half the pond being 6' or less... understanding where those fish want to be--usually deeper the colder it gets--will be key.
I enjoy all your videos but I predict this one will get more views than normal. I've went fishing with a guide twice; one time worked out well, other time not so much because of the weather (and we'd drive quite a ways so we really couldn't change plans at that point). Paying a guide - I call it luxurious fishing - but it truly is a treat.
Dropping large shiners around cover got me 2 "Angler of the Month" pins down here in southeastern Virginia years back. And at 66 years old, I've had plenty of "catching lots of fish"! I would be tickled to spend all day to catch ONE Bass over 5 pounds! And if I EVER get my truck finished so I can get my boat back in the water again (I'm renovating it!) then I will be happily watching my bobber for that fat Bass on my line! Ain't much in life better than watching a 6-7 pounder standing on his tail trying to shake the hook!
I'll say it again. BassQuest has put me on so many new lures and taught me so much on stuff I would have never known. Lake map breakdown navionics, patterns. I owe him alot. I love both of yalls channels! Thanks for sharing this awesome video!
What a fun day! I caught 40 crappie the other day in 2 hours! I never fished this time of year before but I’ve been fishing almost daily since July 3rd because of you lol. Well I did take a break to get my deer but I’m back to it now and loving it!
😂 man I was literally taking screenshots of the reel so I could zoom in later and see which one it was lol that’s awesome glad you revealed that im still shopping for my new replacement’s
That takes me back to when I grew up in Florida, We would go after the big bass with shiners that way. You just never know what's on the other end when that bobber goes down, but you know it might be a biggun!
Those were some big bass, but that action at the creek mouth was incredible! I appreciate how you get enough of the rest of the experience in there too, and it's not just catching fish back to back to back. Thanks for all you effort to create great fishing videos for us!
It was good to see you out with bass quest, he's an amazing angler he knows how to catch the giants, I'd put him up against any pro angler & he would win! He's been through a lot the past several years falling through a roof, but God is great in that he's helped Caleb through it all, I hope he can make it as a full time guide, anyways it was a great video love catching one after another!
I've always fished live bait freelined or with a weight. Thredfin shad work better on average but my biggest Largemouth came using about a 10 inch Gizzard shad freelined in about 17 foot of water over rock structure. 9lb. 12oz. Thanks for sharing and have a Blessed Day!!!
My oh my, what a fun day for the both of you ! Wish you had weighed that first bass, just to know. I believe this "fast and furious " fish catching trip is just what you needed. Caleb seemed like a nice guy and guide, (whether you paid for this trip or not). I hope this exposure increases his business tenfold. Always be safe. Randy B.
Hey John. It was so nice to see you have such a fun day out! You wouldn't believe it was the beginning of December.... And no tiddlers either! Looking forward to seeing you again before Xmas!! 🤓
That was fun to watch! Thanks john!
You killed it buddy 👍👍👍...
Loved hearing the Sandhill cranes!

Y'all had a great day and and great video Merry Christmas
Oh yeah John! I just did this the other day and lost an easy 8-10 at the side of the kayak! It’s a fun way to fish!
awesome man
Amazing fishing 👍👍👍
Great video fishing my friend 👍
Lovely Crappies.
My brother and I went out last Friday with Bassquest! It was amazing! Hit my PB for Largemouth and my brother got his and a PB Stripe Bass (8lb on the money). Fantastic!! Love the content.
That's a good day!
Fun trip!!!
I love them white bass two at a time is really fun good video
Dang that all looks like a blast and a half what a pig largemouth very nice! Love the sound of the cranes as near constant background just beautiful
I'm still finding videos of yours that I haven't seen, I've watched a video everyday for months now
What a great day for fishing 🎣. MSD ( MULTI-SPECIES DAY)
Dam thats some good times
Boa noite parabéns otima pescaria
do the same in our quarry pond. shiners and circle hooks
Fruitful lake ..I'll be Goin home with a bucket full happy lol
I can hear that 'ribeye in the sky' flying over. Is it ok to use live bait in a tournament? Seems like this guy could kick butt! I love live bait fishing but don't do it enough. Great video,!
Generally, only artificial baits are allowed in tournaments. Occasionally, there may be a local tournament that allows live baits, but very rarely.
no live bait in our tournaments
What jig were you using with the BG?
1/16 oz Trout Magnet brand
love these videos
man that pizza looks good check out them thick pepperoni slices too
Those birds flying making all the noise are Sandhill Cranes.
yes they are really cool and loud

this was a rod made locally to me 6-9 medium
John! What do you think of that new Miravel? It looks awesome, but I haven't had an opportunity to get my hands on one yet.
feels great, might be my favorite reel right now
Some good fish with a TANK bass.
did you see my buddy richard gene the fishing machine down there?
Wish there would've been more of that Live Bait action! Maybe in some future videos, we'll get some with a Bobber & on the bottom. Nonetheless, the bites seemed non-stop, and multi species videos are the best!👍 Thanks!
too bad you just cant make the fish bite, even when you try to feed them the real thing
That's what you call bein in amunsk them!
Great video! Thanks for sharing!
Looks like loads of fun . Great video
WOW, THIS WAS A DREAM DAY FOR ANY ANGLER!!!!!

youtube does weird things
What part of TN do you live in
south east
How awesome!!!!!

i dont know that much, i use yum dingers a lot and fish them slow, or use a worm bait and drag it across the bottom
@@CreekFishingAdventures thank you so much I’ll be sure to give it a shot god bless

Great video! That was a gorgeous fish. Is that the same Caleb that fell off a roof while working? Man it’s great to see he’s better.
yes it is, he is getting better but definitely has some more recovery to do
Like the music, fish and sandhill cranes!👍😎

That was a BEAST of a bass buddy!!!! Wooooooo weeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!
So did u use a straight slow retrieve with the shad or no retrieve because this looks like a very effective method for bass that might try
just let it float and drift in the current
@@CreekFishingAdventures okay thanks I’ll have to try it
🐠 Fun 🐟 catching 🐠 different 🐟 species 🐠 of 🐟 fish 🐠🐟
Awesome! There are magical days every so often; so glad you had this one! Just a dang hoot when they happen 🎣!!

Great bass, thanks for sharing, but better multi species day than bass day, sorry you got board of catching fish though…..
What can you say!!?? That looked fun. Incredible video
God bless you brother.
Early Christmas gifts . Hot spot ☺️

The "PuertoRican Redneck" will put you on the fish!!! :)
Great video John I went to watts bar on the bank this evening and caught some stripe also. They are good eating to
That yellow bass was bait .
Hey John did you know that in mainland Europe Chubs can get up to 16 pounds
i would love to go catch those one day
@@CreekFishingAdventures me too
That takes me back to when I grew up in Florida, We would go after the big bass with shiners that way. You just never know what's on the other end when that bobber goes down, but you know it might be a biggun!
Beautiful bass, 7lb very nice. Huge Whites and Crappie to. Thank you for sharing. God bless you both and your Whole family....🙏❤🙏❤🙏😊🙂😀
I enjoyed this so much, I came through Chattanooga and Knoxville today, I told my friend if I seen you out fishing I was going to stop🐟🎣🐟🎣
There is nothing more exciting than using live bait, especially huge live bait to catch huge bass. So much fun.
If you are using circle hooks do not set the hook just wind down on them
yeah i kept messing it up
@@CreekFishingAdventures its easy to do especially if you are new to using them
#564👍🏻🛥🎣👀
In my California, it is NOT legal to use live other fish species to catch lake bass. Boo...California DFG and PETA fools!
wow i didnt now that
Nice video!
Sweet fishin'! 👍

In your discription could you list what rod and reels you are using on the video you're doing.
Well done. Great to see Caleb out on the water doing what he does best... catching big bass. Thanks for sharing. 👍
I would say this was a very successful fishing trip and I think you got your money’s worth!
Love to find them school's LOL

Great job guys!!! I’m sure you enjoyed it John. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
whyyy in the world didn't you WEIGH that big BASS! it was prob 7 or over! weren't YOU CURIOUS????
yeah it was probably 7 or just over
@@CreekFishingAdventures you do so well i understand you don't have time to get a weight on all ur fish! but sorry old me! i would have had to see!
Hey John. It was so nice to see you have such a fun day out! You wouldn't believe it was the beginning of December.... And no tiddlers either! Looking forward to seeing you again before Xmas!! 🤓
How much yall wanna bet that wasn't their kayak?
the police were at the ramp also
I can’t believe you didn’t weigh that first big Bass. Wanted to see what that was regardless of PB.
Can't be a real fishing TH-cam channel with out some beef jerky!
