Is This the BEST Creek Kit?? Rebel Critters

[@dougalexander7204]

I don’t know nuth’n about fishing but, as a little old man watching your videos, they bring back memories of fishing in a pond and a creek on the childhood farm. Thank you.

[@lofigaming8472]

Go fish brother!

[@theloneangler3320]

Oh John John !!!... This is how I found you almost 2 years ago looking for ultralight lures , and I came across one of your first vids and instantly liked you .I am so happy for your success and for being a great example as a man and Christian. God bless you son and many blessings to you and your loved ones. 👍🙏✝️♥️🎣🏹🛶🇺🇸

[@mackadecosey1829]

Another great lure Rebel makes is the top water bee, in which resembles a bumble bee. It’s a great lure for small creeks!

[@johnharrison6745]

I've seen those in Walmart, and wondered about them.

[@robertanderson1272]

Dont forget the hellgramite if you can find it.

[@johnnyb2537]

By far, Rebel has the best lineup of creek baits there is. I have no link to the company but when anybody asks me what to take creek fishing, it is 1) Rebel Craw, and 2) A Pop-R, 3) Crickhopper…End of story.

[@peabodymartin5201]

Dude! Almost 100k! Congrats man. Love to see you using your platform to speak the truth of Jesus.

[@psychocuda]

Man this reminds me when I went to my university, they had a creek running through campus, and I fished it right in the heart of campus catching little largemouth and rock bass. The best part wasn't the fishing, it was the weird stares everyone was giving me.

[@addisonesslinger3653]

Glad to see you're packing some heat. I thought you were a little vulnerable in some of the spots you fish.

[@gregtheredneck1715]

Arkie Lures has some tiny lures that work well and their grasshopper comes in different colors from the crickhopper. I got them because they were half the price of the Rebel lures.

[@zacksmith5675]

Arkies Crawlin Fries were my favortie soft bait in the creek, can’t find them anymore!

[@ericwakeman6665]

Rebel makes some cool lures. I’ve just picked up a bunch of Pop-Rs in different sizes to use this summer I’m excited. Thanks for keeping the fire stoked here John!

[@fishingthelist4017]

That Firetiger Super Teeny R is actually a good white bass and hybrid lure. Sometimes that color actually works better than shad colors on the fish with lines on them.

[@joshuafeldman367]

I noticed the popper works better in still water and have caught alot of bass on them great video.

[@brianathern9154]

Loved this video brother. Anybody can walk in Walmart or Bass Pro, Cabela's or even Amazon to purchase that kit and go out and catch fish. I resisted the temptation last week but bought some green pumpkin Yum Dinger 4 inch . The beauty is the every fisherman beginner, novice and seasoned vet can do it and enjoy. John I'll make you a deal..I guarantee to be a good hellgramite student on an outing with you and I'll boost your confidence in the Pop R and similar baits. Felt like we were right next to you in the water until you hit that deep patch. I'd have been swimming at 5'7...lol. Thanks for taking us along

[@kevinaltizer]

I believe we can say that this is a great Creek Kit!

[@trevorlastname101]

I love how you had your gun in the creek man there have been a few times where I have been creek fishing in middle TN and run into some weird/creepy stuff.

[@lukeherdaii9528]

[@armandorjusino]

Rebel critter kit, a timeless classic piece of work, proven good old lures that are inexpensive and incredibly reliable for creek UL fishing, thanks for sharing the experience my fellow angler. friend.

[@randomthings2493]

I just found your channel a few weeks ago, saw one video and subscribed. Since then I've watched a ton of your videos, you've really got me into small creek fishing

[@richardclevenger3369]

I have learned a lot about what lures and bait to use in these creeks around where I live by watching your videos. I'm originally from South Florida and moved to middle Tennessee. The creek fishing is a lot different than fishing the lakes and canals down there. It's totally different fishing the clear water. Thanks for sharing and making these videos. you're one of the few channels I actually look forward to seeing your content. Keep on keeping on!

[@Fishing4Reel]

Good tip on the Crickhopper. I have fished the Creek hopper for years but twitched it on the surface and never had much success. But recently I started casting and retrieving and actually caught a nice bass or two on it as well as bluegill.

[@teamcantgetright633]

Great video! love your content! @15:57 I believe that was a smallmouth bass my favorite to catch in creeks and rivers

[@joepiedmont5672]

Looks like alot of smallmouth I catch in Erie Canal in Western New York

[@lftdblazer]

I use a Rebel Crickhopper, but it's the popper version. I've had good luck with it and have had it for years lol. Been lucky to not have lost it.

[@scottwhaley4585]

The popper on the French Broad River in Knoxville I have caught 3 to5 lb Smallmouth. One of my favorite

[@christopherwood2290]

My favorite CFA videos are the small creek stuff. Love this type of video.

[@Guilmon470]

The gold colored grasshopper is probably my favorite out of the box from personal experience.

[@petekeener8943]

I'm glad to see that you carry when out there! I've had two friends that were accosted while fishing, had knives pulled on them, and fortunately both were armed!

[@jebar01]

Rebel lures, especially the bumble bugs and crick hoppers are alot of fun. My grandkids all have their own! God Bless, Jim

[@johnbubbajohnson5630]

John i enjoy your creek fishing trips. They are so enjoyable to me to watch. They remind me so much of my youth fishing all the creeks in my area. You have the ability to catch just about anything out of a creek at different times of the year. God bless you John for sharing your videos with us. 🙏❤🙏❤🙏😊😊😊

[@shahnapaul2005]

You are getting so close to 100K. So excited for your channel. Good clean fishing!😃

[@TC-er5xy]

I got this exact kit - it works awesome! Just like you, I caught a nice rainbow trout on the first cast (Clinch River by the dam)! I haven't tried all of the tools yet - can't wait to see what else I'll catch. Thanks for sharing your experience & your witness!

[@juliolozano1161]

Love that kit,was one of the first lures I bought when I started creek fishing. The grasshopper and crawfish are always hitters. Never really caught anything on the popper,gonna try it again when I go fishing later. Love the scripture in the end,great video.

[@AppalachianAnglingAdventures]

The pop-r is situational, I stuck a 15.5” creek smallmouth early this year on one along with a few more 12 inchers. The topwater bite should be turning up right now

[@juliolozano1161]

Lucky you. I could always get the frog or rat and even that crankbait to hit, even bigger poppers. Never this little popper,I use the same technique like I do with the others. Idk,ill get one some day. Lol

[@reedmitchell6716]

Just perfect kit for beginners and seasoned anglers. Just real fishing at it's best.

[@chasefishez4640]

Is it worth buying because I've never used those lured

[@reedmitchell6716]

Yes it is. I have fished with these for years. The pop r for 30 yrs. From North Carolina to Erie Pa. Ole Reliable.

[@mrpaul6971]

I sure do enjoy watching your fishing! My son and I love creek fishing! Fantastic time in the Lord's creation!

[@Chad20109]

I agree, i use all except the popper. I get great results

[@LeviW133]

Creek fishing is one of the funniest way's to fish, because you can catch all kinds of species ,in the little creek that I fish in has largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, spotted bass, green sunfish, bluegill, orange spotted sunfish and channel catfish and flathead catfish

[@randyblevins9489]

Great little kit ! I bought this kit back in early summer. Have caught fish on every one , except the craw shaped one. I will try it again this fall. First time I've seen you go chest-deep in a creek! LOL! As always, love your content. RKB

[@rogerdickinson9335]

Interesting, usually the craw works the best in the creeks around me

[@RobertxJenks]

I have some Rebel crawls and grasshoppers that are over twenty years old and still look good and the only thing is changed hooks when they got dulled up, some were my Dads .

[@MarkMeadows90]

I don't know if I have ever caught a spotted sunfish before. I may have, but it was around the time when I was a teenager and called all sunfish "bream" lol God bless, and hope the continued KZbin success brings you happiness in life.

Have you ever tried fishing the Little Tennessee River here in WNC? My son and would love to see you do a video on the Little Tennessee River. Lots of smallies in there.

[@corbingray9330]

15:58 that looks alot like the smallmouth bass I've caught here in Illinois

[@2007dixiegirl]

In RI and my thought was a smallie.

[@betsiet8164]

Agreed, definitely a nice creek smallie!

[@doughaning8982]

Yep smallie!!

[@starlightwarden]

I have the alternative color version of this kit, (the one with the orange and brown crankbaits) and it tears the rivers up, especially when they run muddy and high, but safe enough to wade. Smallmouth can't get enough of the Teeny R and the popper.

[@nealvaliant603]

U r welcome JOHN,always a pleasure!!!GOD BLESS 😎

[@michaeltichonuk2176]

Yep . I concur! The bottom three are the best!!!

Great selection of lures, I have caught fish on all of them. Thanks John

[@steveboggs9777]

A very successful trip. I use the cricket and the tiny R myself. My two favorite mini lures.

[@sunfishassassin5963]

I grew up fishing farm ponds and rivers and creeks with all those lures. Pb bass on a teeny crawl. 6lbs. Pb bass on a rebel popper 8lbs. The grasshopper 4lbs. Lol. Not to mention all the sunfish. Have hooked bigger bass on the crawl but they bent the hooks out. Fish on everyone

[@martinmaddox5315]

I fished the Holston river from the time I was 12 years old until I went away for college. My biggest smallmouth bass was when I was home from college. It was my birthday in July. Very hot. I fished from daylight til noon with no bites other than maybe a bite.About 12:05 PM , I had wasted most of my live crawfish. I was in the Yuma community. I had several dead crawfish, and one live huge crawfish over 3 inches long, I normally threw the large crawfish back as I had tried large ones before, never a fish but threw this one above a 3 foot dam that stretched all the way across the river and let it fall over the dam. A huge smallmouth hit and it took me what seemed like 5 minutes to land it as I fished with ultra light weight tackle. My biggest up to that time was about 3 pounds. This one was 24 inches long and weighed 5 pounds and 2 oz. I will never forget that fish.

[@willloy8901]

This is a good kit, but their top water popper pack is outstanding! I try to buy 2-3 of the popper packs each year. They are so much fun!

[@timlacy2284]

John, Another Outstanding Video, I have that kit and a bunch of ultra light Rebel lures from the early 90s and they don't make them anymore. Keep Up the Great videos.

[@gt_outdoorexcursions]

Fun times for sure!! Ive definitely had some fun with the small rebel lures over the years, the crickhopper and crawdad are elite, A little harder to find but the little jointed minnows they make are elite too! Never tried the poppers but I might need to!

[@Grannyknockers]

Top 3 creek bass lures: 1. Ned rigged z man TRD craw 2. Storm wildeye curly tail minnow 3. Lunkerhunt pocket frog Landed probably 500 bass between those 3 the past year.

[@sunfishassassin5963]

Last time I waded one of the rivers here a few years ago. Threw the teeny crawl. Caught maybe 30 bass green sunfish and bluegills

I love the yum dinger and all there baits. Idk why but i have caught more bass on the dinger than any other senko made. I think there attractant might work well also.

[@creekcrankin]

Yum dingers are the perfect weight for creeks it seems like too. My preference for senkos are a Berkley general but they sink pretty quick compared to the dinger. Jon said it. Never leave home without a yum dinger 😂

Great video man! Love watching you fish these lures. And identifying these different sun fish.

[@PuddleWalkersOutdoors]

We have those gold colored fish. We just call them smallmouth but I'm wondering if there's a difference from male and female. Kinda like how the male bird has colors, I wonder if the male smallmouth have the stripes to attract a mate. Could just be a hybrid mix with spotted bass. I do know the solid gold ones are more rare than a striped one.

[@thedoublejs4957]

That one bass was either a smallmouth or a hybrid meanmouth.

[@smoovefishing]

I have bought a lot of those kits but I have noticed the hooks are different on the kit than when you buy in separate, not really a big deal to me because I usually change hooks really fast on the small baits, prob on the pop r is popping it to hard, it works the best with small pops just enough to make come up and pauses in between pops

I have the walmart version of all of these now and they work good too. Simetimes they have a sale on the real Rebels amd ill grab a bunch. I may put better hooks on them tho. The smallmouth cant stand the craw if you bottom bounce it 20ft deep along the dam or over deep rock piles and theyre cheap enough that I dont cry of i snag one. If you have a canoe you gotta try bottom bouncing
