They go as deep as possible and tuck under rocks, logs, and other debris. Unless it's a super sunny day, they're usually just sitting there in hibernation for the most part. I grew up playing in creeks, and that's what I've observed throughout the years.
Agree. My observation is based on my koi and goldfish pond.
Creekchubs❤Tip:sliced bread balls
Weather never stops a True Fisherman ! even when rods freezing up We🥶 just shake off the ice❄️
Just a heads up if the air temperature is below freezing try to keep the fish in the water. It damages their gill filaments if the water freezes.
You're a brave man, John Dalton. I don't go outside In this weather and definitely don't fish. But we thank you. Your legend lives on.
Why don't you?
So exciting it is. Catch or not.
Respectfully, I'm 72 years old with heart failure. Don't Have the stamina that I once had.
@@mikeboyce584
Duly noted. Funny I get told to settle down with my fishing adventures but I to one day could have to relax cold turkey. Tomorrow rain up until 3 pm. So I'll be out from 4 pm until 540 pm to get on the crappie. Must enjoy at all cost for now.
Don't get me wrong. I still fish just not in the winter.@@Alexvnder_Wood
Goodmorning to you just found your channel glad to help with a sub love to you and yours frome paul in p.a
I have subscribed to your channel for years, and I subscribed for this creek fishing..
Great job ! You didn't get skunked ! We still have snow on the ground, and the Upper Cumberland is still frozen over . Has been for over a week. Glad you can take us fishing with you ! Always be careful. Pap Blevins
Now that’s some dedication! Keep up the good work John glad you keep god #1✝️
I live vicariously thru you during the winter months up here in Michigan. I got a buddy that lives near your area, and i know its been unusually cold and snowy. Thanks for braving the elements we all appreciate it.
Hey brother John those are Creek chubs you're catching... Great video and great job!
Love the content and how you are open about your faith! Same thing down in here in Texas, when winter season comes it’s tough fishing for those warm weather species. The fish usually start spawning here in March and spawn through May. That’s my favorite time to be wading the creeks!
Mullets
Wading/walking the stream is your friend in the winter. You need to cover water to find the deep holes and undercuts you don't even realize are there.
Its 13 degrees but feels like -1 today. Just got about 30 inches of snow this weekend so watching your video is my way of going fishing. Keep it up.
Sounds like you live up somewhere in the Northeastern U. S. They say that the Great Lakes areas can produce a lot of Lake-Effect Snow, especially around this time of year. Stay warm and dry, and tight lines to ya!
Sounds like Michigan to me lol
Thanks for taking us along. If I can find any water not frozen I'm going to get after it tomorrow. Schools still out, we as many others have had no water for a week. I do appreciate the inspiration.....
As a Canadian I love your "winter fishing" 😂 the water ain't even hard haha! Jealous, sometimes it gets too cold to even want to fish in a shack/tent 🥶
we can get spoiled with open water year round
Nice little video some nice little fish it's still fun to catch the small ones as well thank you john enjoy your videos and your love of getting out and fishing
Thanks for braving the cold and posting new video content, John. BTW, here in S/E Pennsylvania we have Merganser Ducks. They eat fish and have serrated teeth on their bills to grab and hold onto fish. Go back up to Dale Hollow to fish this month!
I knew a guy back in the 80’s that cast out past some ducks and one of them swallowed his bait. The only thing we knew to do was cut the line as short as possible to the duck. I’ve thought about that poor duck a lot of the years. You’re a better man than I fishing in that temp. But thank you
Nice! Most of the creeks around me all you will catch right now are refin or Chain pickerel. now go 1 hour east or better 2 hours east and you can get into more fish but around me the pickeral are king right now.
Same thing here in NJ. The only thing I don't like about them is when they bite my lures off 😟
Well brother, you convinced me to go out in February. I caught my first fish of 2024 today! Two NICE trout on an all gold Panther Martin in the local creek. Thanks for the great videos, keep 'em coming!
Nice!!
Great day of fishing. Thanks for sharing.
Haven't watched this yet but man this is the kind of content I love. I suck at cold weather fishing but have always wanted to be better. Can't wait to watch.
I’ve always wondered the same thing for creeks in west Tennessee. The bass and bluegill just disappear.
John, Thanks for sharing this Great Video, I used to fish year around. It is tough to find and catch fish in the creeks in shallow water in the winter. Thanks Again and God Bless You.
This is the kind of video that got me watching your channel, just out on an adventure experimenting with different lures to see what you can catch.
As always great video John. Here in Midwest Arkansas it been cold and tonight freezing rain. Have a Blessed day.
The cold weather has been kicking our butt so far, nada, zippy lol.
Atta boy, thanks for sharing and have a Blessed Day!
Well done - tough conditions, wish we had the same species here in England !
Hello happy fishing Sunday 🎣
I’m sitting here with a nasty cough and cold, just don’t feel like fishing, but thank God for Creek Fishing Adventures, your out fishing in snow catching shiners. Hopefully one day I’ll grow up and be just like you 😂😂😂 enjoyed it John!
haha, i was sick last week for like 5 days and barely left the house
Got to be tough to fish in this weather 👍👍
Proud to see you out there catching something. I have been locked up at home. I have been watching videos but would love to be catching something also. Go gettum.
How bout them mallards...I guess they were wild ducks,huh,just looking for an easy meal. Cool video. Snow on the ground.. sweet. Fish on
Yeah, the fish will group up in holes and shut off. Also there are a lot of spots on the banks that cut under the ground quite a ways and they'll be there or if there are any pond areas that will be warmer water and they will go there.
see this is the winter fishing us folks up north talk about hahaha
I'm right there with you on the warmer weather. I've been trapped at home most of the week because of the snow and sleet. The roads have been so bad I didn't even get to work all week. This isn't something we have to deal with much here in NW AL and I'm glad. I wished it would just hurry up and all melt 😩 . 👊👍
Hey. I’m up north and have ponds and small lakes froze over. But yes “where do the fish go “? Thanks for video
Burr, it's 26° in North West Alabama, this Monday morning. I'm ready for the warm weather 💖
At least they’re not frozen. Ice fishing seems cool but it usually doesn’t get thick enough around here to where I’d feel comfortable doing it.
I love cold weather fishing, but youre more dedicated than i am. Fishing was the furthest thing from my mind this past week lol
Everyday a good day for fishing. 👍
The same thing happened in the creek on my parents property outside of Chattanooga. You can catch smallmouth,red eye,bluegill and redbreast from Spring through about November. Then they disappear. I suspect they head downstream to a deeper stream once cold weather hits.
Amazing bro
When I fish creeks in winter, I never catch anything
Here in p.a we have been in the teens day time highs today it's going to be 34 its been cold with snow to cold to do much can't wait fore the spring
Those shiners are great bass bait.
good point... where do the fish go
I tried fishing creeks a little last winter a few times. Just caught a shiner or two also. One in Little Turkey Creek in Farragut. Shiners like the rooster tails when i catch em. If i thought i could catch that many shiners down at Beaver creek tomorrow I’d for sure try to go.
Good Bass bait 😁 🎣
With that being a spring fed stream, if you know where the spring starts feeding, start there. The water will be warmer when it comes out of the ground.
Atleast you are catching something 😊
The fish have got to know when its time to move to deeper water, you catch a lot of those shriners & take them to deeper water & use them for bait, anyway you got out & got some exercise!👍
I have found fish in the "holes" along our creeks where the underground water openings are larger (basically a sinkhole with none-limestone rock above it), but in this kind of cold I think they sink deep into those areas. That undercut bank could be similar to what I see around here. We haven't gotten above freezing yet... tomorrow just before all the rain moves in for us, I think.
Well done
Watching while ice fishing here in the Midwest it’s 2° here
Dont know until you try. good one.
I've asked my the same questions hundreds of times, and I've asked others MANY times, "Where do the fish go in the winter?" I've even considered that the aliens come and take them, then bring them back in the spring? They just disappear, then reappear when it's warm? So strange!
I always assumed they swim out to the next bigger body of water the stream is attached too.
They move down the watershed until they find warmer water - which depending on the watershed could be a lake or deep holes in a river. It's pretty well documented.
@@therivergivethI agree with you on moving down the watershed to warmer water. Often to deeper water. I have also seen in some creeks where they move to a different creek arm or branch that is measurably warmer. All depends on the creek in my experience.
John: Aww look at the ducks I love cute little wildlife / Also John: Casually chops duck in half, uses beak to catch 40 lb Blue Catfish
LoL, you should take some of those shinners to here in Florida to fish our canals! Those are crack for our Peacocks and LG Heads!
That would be cool!
The cold water slows them down. I’d try live bait. Like minnnows. They are around. Just a very slow bite when it’s cold.
Cool video 📹 😎 *****
big ole shinner 👍
yup
Yup
I don't normally catch fish in winter either maybe a couple is about it you did great though
Coles secret jig! now we know Cole!
I had a duck trying to eat my sinko today at the pond, and it was a diving duck (think its a coot) that showed up in the fall. It usually stays way away from me. Must be starving in the cold. Didn't get any bites either.
I went and hit my local creek Friday and didn’t get any bites or see anything.
I was just up in Chattanooga today at the aquarium and damn it was cold up there.
Looks like you all got a lot less snow than we did in upper-east tennessee. Supposed to get up in the mid-high 50's and rain later this week. Hoping the warmer temps, rain, and snow melt get them stirred up and biting.
yes, like 30 minutes north got several inches of snow
Drop shot the deepest holes? I know Ethan *FishAnything drop shots ultralight. But, I agree, it can be hard to find panfish in creeks and ponds in winter.
Another thought - an expert panfisher in the Chesapeake uses a piece of felt with Anise on it - maybe scent will help?
Thise banks undercut quite a bit. I wonder if there may be some hidden holes down there. Be an awesome videt with the camera on a long selfie probing underneath them 👍😄
I swear i texted thid before while i was watching the video 🤣
Brother John:If you don't take the cake! Referring to Benaiah like that. Wasn't he something else -Gettin' down into a pit, and killin' an ol' Lion, on a Snowy Day? He must've had some great foot-wear on... something with a lot of traction. Being in a pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day was bad enough. Can you imagine, what woulda happened, if he'd of slipped and fallen? That ol' Lion woulda had himself some Benny-Meat fer supper!
If it's a spring fed creek, most of the fish will be closer to the spring where the water will be warmer in the winter
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Surprised you didn't get any six inch creek chub - they bite year round on my little greenway creek.
It seems to me that most of the fish migrate to larger/deeper water. I’ve had decent success on smallies while barely moving a small craw along the bottom. We have 8” of snow and 9 degrees, a bit more challenging conditions than I want to fish😁
They must look for deep water pools. And I imagine since the shallow water is more susceptible to temperature change, they must just shut down until the temp goes up.
Other than bait fish, salamanders and crayfish, what else could they feed on. Hellgramites....trout will eat caddis larvae and the like. I imagine red wrigglers are rare.
4 days this week in the mid to high 60's. That will cause a caddis hatch. If the weather accommodates, we used to have blizzards if caddis on Toccoa in Ga. Usually in February. Biggest hatch of the entire year. I have not seen that big hatch in years. But small hatches will occur.
That's all I've caught in small creeks on this cold days, is shinner.
Mallards will eat minnows, I have fed them more tan once while walleye fishing in Northern Illinois.
Now that you are used to the cold weather, head north and try ice fishing.
Brother we are 6 degrees here in Townsend Tennessee. We had 7 to 8 inches of snow and now it's all ice. You are a fish catching king.
Awesome video big z is free
i have been watching, its going to be up and down until the lineup gets figured out
@@CreekFishingAdventures yes we sure blew it Tuesday lol
They're down in Florida.
you got that right
I did a cold float on the upper chattahoochee a couple weeks ago and felt the same way about the fish; where do they go in the winter? I did see quite a few suckers and a couple small bass. You definitely caught more, i only managed one 12 inch spot!
Same for me on the Upper Hooch,Bart..
@user-ye5ni1gn7c I did get an 18 inch shoalie all the way down at belton bridge park that same day. The river is really confusing with the water so low in the lake.
What kinda rod you using? Brand
Doesn’t look cold to me We call that a mild winter in Wisconsin
5:12 common creek chub I think
It would be good if you could see the tutorial on how to fix it at minute 10:11, greetings from Honduras
Find the deeper holes
If a man was hungry he could make a meal of those 😊
Crappie Nibbles are LETHAL for those Common Shiners this time of year!!! You will smoke em fishing them weightless
Would be surprised how far fish will travel seasonally
They find theyre way to deeper water lakes ponds whatever. And ducks eat fish.
Can you throw your underwater camera down there? Love to see it.
#934👍🏻🎣👀
Slow down and down size is all you can do in those conditions
Try bfs
Ducks eat fish and fish eat ducks. Thats nature.
They are hyburnating
Why are you not in Florida fishing and when it warms up you come back home, buy a truck camper or something you make it way to hard.
cool man...
