Fishing the EVERGLADES with nikko Hellgrammites!!

NEW CFA STORE creekfishingadventures.store/ Florida trip part 4. This was my second day fishing in Florida and my first time ever fishing in the everglades area. I started out using the hellgrammite made by Nikko-fishing.com and it delivered. I was getting hits left and right and ended up catching a bunch of colorful fish with it. The peacock bass would only hit it when i would jerk it. I had so much fun using it, you will see it used in the next florida videos.

Thanks John for another great video, nice Nikko Hellgrammite advertisement.

[@ScottBradley66]

Dude! I've really enjoyed your Florida Trip videos. Thanks for taking us along for the ride and all the hook-ups! Blessings, brother!

[@oldschoolbassman4590]

I'm really glad I found your channel. I do a lot of smallie fishing on the river. Beautiful scenery in your videos. Love it.

[@underagefisherman6158]

I feel like Florida is a different planet when your fishing there, so many cool fish, love the vids

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

i couldnt get over how different it feels

[@jorgeandreszanocchi6485]

Excellent video John!!!! Fantastic fishing, it was fun to watch thanks for sharing!!!

[@johnnybx3254]

Hey! Glad you are enjoying your vacation time in Florida and sharing your wonderful videos with all of us 👍👏👏🙏

[@CumberlandOutdoorsman]

I think I can speak on behalf of many other sportsfishermen/ and ladies out there in saying that the Nikko Hellgrammite is probably the hottest lure to hit the market in a long time. Just look at how many different species you can catch with them! I absolutely love them. Great video John.

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

thanks tom

[@tylercravens4226]

Going from KY & OH, where I'm from, and then fishing the gulf was such a cool experience last summer! I can''t imagine getting to fish these little canals and all the life that its teaming with.

[@firstlightangler6049]

Love the Florida fishing man. Great vids, it’s not easy!

[@michaelviens2894]

Worms moccasins, shallow diving, crank baits.. flutes too glad to see you enjoyed it hopefully you did I enjoy it up there in the mountains.

[@waucheesione2828]

[@timberryhill658]

Fishing Florida is like a box of chocolates.... Another great video brother. God bless

[@mikemiddlebrook416]

That was a lot of cool fish. You are great fishing guy. Really fun video. 😊

[@charlesgeorge4391]

[@kne2323]

Dude....that little spot was loaded! Those must be Elton John Oscars....they love that hot purple lure. 😂😂😂

[@MarkWilliams-rp7nb]

Absolutely man , anxiously awaiting the next video

[@Johnathan0055]

So awesome to see some new fish! 👍

[@Lesabrejunkie]

I started using hellgramite lures after watching you using them a few months ago. Ordered some nikko lures off amazon and I love using them! I’ve had good luck using them on a ned rig.

[@beards_n_bass2262]

Nice video dude. Love the roadside fishing.

[@davidhess7821]

Love the video keep up the good work

[@TheFishingNomad]

Probably my favorite video of your Florida series. Nice job.

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

[@austinmiller3497]

Awesome video and awesome catches

[@BTROutdoors]

[@PondPredatorNation]

Hellgramite doing some work. Awesome video bro

[@seapancakee]

What a great video!! Keep uploading, your content is top notch! 👍

[@CarolinaBassHunter]

Awesome video. Lots of species. I usually can't hook the gar around me. Sometimes they'll get tangled in my trebles, but that's it.

[@12againsports]

Outstanding video! The hellgrammite came through again!! Never seen anyone use a purple one . . . but it appears just as effective. I love how you are finding new species of fish. That is definitely the cool part about fishing down there, you never know what will bite! Nice job brother!

[@knightfishing]

And the sales for hellgramite lures in Florida skyrocketed 😂 nice video man! Keep it up

[@bige5838]

You make fishing in Florida look easy I had fun just watching

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

florida made me look like i know what im doing, there was tons of fish to be caught

[@bobbysaldana1785]

Really cool video 👍👍

[@jacksomers6903]

Great video! Have a safe and healthy 2020, regards from Sydney, Australia.

[@kevingartlandkmgartland8983]

Love throwing Hellgrammites when creekin! They're deadly...

[@BankFishVince]

I’m in north Florida and been struggling due to the bipolar weather. Awesome video

[@catfish6138]

Wearin' 'em out! Nailed two creek smallies this morning on the hellgrammite. That bait is a GETTER!

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

yes it is

[@donbetz9611]

Great vid man when you love fishing like i do catching fish is just plan fun no matter the size

[@charlespinson6693]

Dude. I would have loved joining in on this trip! Looks like it was a blast...

[@Jeep-Addicts]

That is a great time fishing.

[@edwardlittlefield447]

Thanks John for letting me come along!

[@bassanglerxxx8444]

Gorgeous fishing there bro

[@coachcj9668]

Great videos! Looks like you had a lot of fun in Florida. I was so waiting for a gator to chomp down on your camera in that canal. LOL! 👍😀✌️

[@Legallyblindoutdoors]

Looks like you had a great time

[@kathyk8310]

I got my 2020 fishing license today! Your videos have me itching for spring!

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

I I can’t wait

[@ThereEbumpin]

Excuse the language John but this Florida trip was badass! You deserve so much more I stopped watching all other fishing channels they try to hard for new content but here we got that classic rod and reel action bringing in some nice ones all along the trip. You good dude man much love from Texas John. Everyone needs to share this content or post your favorite video from him somewhere to help support more trips and this man in general. I am Muslim but I respect your faith as I am still born here in America keep it up man. Fresh water fishing for life.

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

thanks so much, i really enjoy the simple freshwater fishing, especially when i can catch fish left and right

Super Video 😉🤙

[@illinoisangling1677]

4:48 dang what a hook set!

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

those fish are tough little beasts

[@KOKO-FLY]

I just caught your Vlogs.....awesome fishing 👍👍👌👌

[@hamiltonwalters1642]

I enjoy your vids. God bless.

[@freeline39]

I've noticed a little more garbage around the spots that you fished in Fla. Always was amazed at how tidy the areas were in TN etc.

[@shirleywood2048]

I think he loves saying hugger mite lol

[@Irlegitimatechannel]

I’ve been busy so I’m a bit behind on your videos but this one was great! It’s like catching dozens on little bass and panfish back in your area except they’re all a lot bigger!

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

yah thats about it

[@DAsh-wi1zc]

You could easily populate a large show tank with those cichlids! Award-winning oscars and Mayans! My bro-in-law is officially jealous now. 😏 😉 😁

[@scottwhaley4585]

Those peacock bass are everywhere

[@jerlanfernandez9561]

Nice bro. 👍👍👍

[@roadvoyagerlife1759]

I kept waiting for a big toothy mouth to come up and slam the GoPro!!! Nice catches!

[@tinkmarshino]

that cyclit(?) was a very cool fish.. I liked that colors.. used to have oscars in my aquarium in the old days.. had three of them in a 250 gallon tank in the living room/den wall.. very cool fish.. Those look a little different from the ones I had.. there was no red circle on the fins to start with and they were not as dark.. I am gonna try the helgramite this next year.. I got some nikkos at the end of last year but really didn't get a chance to use them.. Have a bless and safe new year brother.. this is gonna be a good year.. I can just feel it!

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

those oscars are monsters, just a thick strong fish

[@pachyderm420]

Love it 👊✌️

[@samuelmottweiler3833]

I love the Nikko baits but what hook do you like to use when rigging them up?

[@davidschweikhart459]

Amen brother!

[@dougrussell1926]

Me and my Dad used to hunt for Hellgrammites in creeks. Those pinchers are brutal, and have brought a tear to many a man's eye.

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

i have caught a few live ones and dont want to test out the pinchers

[@dannymatthews2595]

Only Oscar I ever seen was in a fish tank. Great video

[@0045dmoore]

Gett'em John!

[@son-my8rb]

Nice content. Florida anywhere creek,river,lake back yard etc. Most likely u will catch something. Living there must fish everyday.

[@alciao3441]

I lost a hellgramite yesterday in a snag. It eats you all day because they are hard to come by. I have to order directly from nikko since BPS nor academy carry. Nice video!

[@THEMONVALLEYFISHERMAN]

Piscifun reel I see! But I can’t wait to go to Florida

[@kathyk8310]

I hope I can find some of those hellgrammites! My son got me hooked on fishing and now I'm trying to get him hooked on your videos! LOL

[@jdyohe04]

Amazon has them

[@airplanegam3001]

Sorry bud, I've been in the hospital and away from the keyboard for a week. I just got home tonight and wanted to comment on this video. There are places along I-40 that run from Raleigh, NC all the way down to Wilmington, NC that are sort like this, but on a much smaller scale. I've noticed the water standing before, driving to the beach as that is the way we go to the Outer Banks on North Carolina's shore. I have often wondered if anything lives in that water, the only problem is, you are not supposed to pull over unless it's an emergency! You just can't pull off and drop a line in the water. Where you were in Florida, it appears you can do just that. That is way cool. I'm glad to see you had a blast in Florida and I would recommend you doing it more. Get out, explore over state lines, see what you can come up with and all of us, you're fans will love it.....

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

you can pull over anywhere there i guess

[@richardsutcliffe]

What a variety, no wonder it’s so hard to catch fish up here in Canada, their all on vacation down south ! 🐠🥇🇨🇦

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

i had no idea there was going to be that many fish in those areas

This place that you fish is amazing, has beautiful fish, your fishing was a success. Congratulations! Hug!!!👍🎣🐠😊 Be with God!

[@GoMidwestFishing]

They have some cool fish in the everglades.

[@Ginger2412]

Just started watching but love ur vids keep slaying

[@Ginger2412]

I'll be really If I could get a shout out I'm about to go buy some helgramite

[@yomommajumprcables]

Killer spot

[@travasarmstrong5638]

Looks like an awesome time. Would to paddle my canoe around there

[@rosariofishing]

FISHING IS LIFE!!

[@robertjanko6709]

Garfish are really beautifull fish! You and your Hellgrammites, its your believer! Nice vid (get yourself a foldable net, especially when canal fishing).

[@creeksidehashman5365]

Enjoyed the video, Florida sure can be a special place for angling, very unique. Would like to see how some live shiners would work for you.

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

i bet the fish would have tore them up

[@ExplorishingAdventures]

Ok, you need to send me some of those to try out....😊

[@monkeyman4131]

Yea, a different world in South Florida fur sure. Tho ya had fun eh ? Four lb. line has no place down here. Ya gota step up to at least eight lb. up for these fish. Some get really big here. At least ya got ta fish different waters than you do up North . Yer always welcome here John. Tom Daytona Beach, FL.

[@probuddyfishing2966]

Nice vid .... My goal is to fish Florida one day soon

[@bigblackmonkeyballs5273]

Got to love the nikko hellgrammites, one of the best soft plastics ever. That gar was a cool catch. What's your favorite way to rig the nikko hellgrammite. Tight lines . 🤘🎣🤙

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

on a 1/10 to 1/20 oz zman jighead

[@CarolinaBassHunter]

@@CreekFishingAdventures are you using the version with the more stout hook or the light wire hook? Looks like maybe the light wire one?

[@crazyfingers19]

Haven't tried it yet but I would think letting a wacky rigged hellgramite tumble out of some rapids into a pool would be deadly for trout.

[@jimmymiranda8870]

cool video....

[@joeblow5033]

I've always thought it was funny, fish on the bank ,cast far out ,fish from a boat fish near the bank?lol

[@walleyehunter8862]

True ! I always take a few casts before going to close to shore so I don't spook the fish and sure enough they end up being the best catch of the day ..

[@MrProfchaos71]

Well typically the shore isnt this clear.. thats the advantage of the boat. Also in areas with high pressure... fish are wary of lures coming from deep water into shore.

[@jamesguilford6807]

Joe Blow; Yep, I have noticed that to, and I have also noticed that the majority of the people I see fishing, seldom catch a significant number of fish. I suspect the reason so many people do not catch many fish has to do with the tendency so many people have to use tackle that is either too heavy or in some cases, too light. Then there is the fact that so many fishermen do not seem to understand that rubber, metal and plastic, are not items that are on the fish's menu ! Yes, you can catch fish with artificial lures, sometimes, quite often even, but if you really want the fish to bite consistently, it helps to remember that fish, just like people, like real food, not man made, decorative, fake food ! Speaking of food ,'' and fish, '' down in the part of the country I grew up in, we fishermen , although we did love fishing, we almost never fished just for the sake of fishing, but instead we fished for food. Heck, when I was a kid, I can remember eating fish for breakfast, lunch and dinner, along with goodies from the garden and hush-puppies, for 3 days in a row sometimes ! These days, its almost as if most fishermen are fishing, just to try to impress someone with their fishing skills, or as is often the case, the lack thereof ! LOL.

[@jamesguilford6807]

@Serzy Productions ; That is good one ! That said, MDs chicken nuggets might contain ammonia, bleach, and god only knows what else, but for the most part they are organic , usually tasty and more often than not, somewhat digestible as food, while the contraptions that so many people insist on using as fish bait these days, fit none of these criteria !

[@williama.walker2287]

I want to see if those Nikko Hellgramites are big enough for a 1/0 Gamakatsu skipgap hook. That would make a great lure for a fly rod, but you need the right hook to hold it in place.

[@brianforrest3377]

The o hellgramite was working well

[@aydenlilly8416]

I love that verse

[@floatingpeaks4584]

I like the release method

[@lindagsmith7846]

Are you off of Alligator Alley? It runs across from Naples to Ft. Lauderdale, close to the Everglades. Gars are, well disturbing. Have fun. 🐟

[@lukewilson3271]

EPIC day, every fish in the video were beautiful. even those Florida gar are gorgeous!!!

[@Redbull357]

Oscars are such an under rated fish

[@stevenhall8964]

Out in Butte County Calif. Live Hellgramites, and Hellegramite Flys, and to a lesser extent the plastics, are the ONLY thing you can get the big non-native Brown trout on fishing the Feather River upper reaches before it runs in Oroville Dam. You can get the Native Cut throat, Rainbows and the non-native Brookies( aint many of them, but they're there) on Worms, Grasshoppers, Salmon Eggs and small in-line spinners like Rooster Tails and a wierd little lure called the Super Duper as well as many different flys, but the Hellgramite is the king of baits for all species there, and like I said almost the only one for the big Browns!

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

thanks, thats interesting

[@MackinNC1]

Dang, you are killing it. nice job. I got some spots here in NC where the gators will follow you around when fishing.

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

that will keep ya in alert mode

[@Elizabeth_Rojas]

Everglades are great fishing, just look out for those gators lol 👀🐊🐟🌴

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

thats all i was thinking about

[@Mithril170818]

Got any recipes for those peacock bass?

[@bryanpeterson3714]

Wow that is one versatile lure. They should sponsor you after that video!👍🏻

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

i actually reached out to them and they sent me a big box of lures, they were the first people to send me lures, over a year ago
