About 55 years ago, I lived in Japan and we had a creek of about the same depth and three times as wide. While walking, I came across a Japanese man fishing there. He only spoke a handful of English words and he described the fish as "medicine fish." He was also catching similar-sized fish and keeping them. Since the creek joined the sea, I even caught a puffer once, after going back to see what I could do, catching my first fish. :)

For some weird reason whenever I see small fish getting caught I always think of the book Hatchet and how Brian survived off of them.

[@iistrafedgaming956]

Jason Aguilar my favorite book of all times.

[@slippy8813]

And found out they were eating the pilots dead body

[@filipinowhiteboy]

Holy smokes! Now there's a book I haven't read in ages (Despite it being one of my favorite survival stories). I personally like Brian's Winter a bit more.

[@j-rocd9507]

Awesome reference. Also love My Side of the Mountain and Tunnel in the Sky

[@minty5259]

Oh yeah! For anyone wondering wether they should read that book, think no more. Even if you don’t like to read like me that book is spectacular

[@craigleith100]

Hey man that was class i love how you're so happy just catching tiny fish like that 😀 a real fisherman 👍 unlike some ive seen on here, i live in Scotland and have a small river that runs through the city centre n its only a 5/10 min walk from my house it has brown trout sea trout and grayling also lots of tiny species i was down having a look the other day and its time to dust my rod down n get out, it doesn't bother me if i dont catch anything just being out fishing is good for your head 😀 and ive also noticed when i go alone (usually always lol) time just flies by even if nothings biting 🎣 anyway tight lines n look forward to new vids. ✌👍 from Scotland 🙋

[@gerardvandijk1173]

Wow just seeing this out of the box kzbin.infoUgkxQr1yd4Zc6qJF-scTB6Zb9dQbVpviuRxB recommend I have yet to fish with this set up, but based on the first hands on appeal, I can tell this is going to change the way i pack and carry to a whole new level. If you fish like i do, you know the smaller and less stuff the better. I’ve added a photo of just some of my gear so you can see how serious i am about fishing.

[@lucaslures5688]

The no shades is tripping me out 😂😂

[@williambeasley2582]

I remember fishing in the creeks setting minnow traps using minnow seine nets. Don't believe it was 60 years ago. Great video.

[@olddominionangler3273]

Nick, I love how much care you take in handling your fish. It's good to see the respect for nature in your videos. Thanks!

Nick ! Just wanna say I’ve been watching your videos lately. This is the oldest video of yours that I have watched so far. You truly are an inspiration when it comes to fishing and creating content. You do what you love and you allow all of us to enjoy it with you. Much love man

[@HiddenInstinct]

Always amazes me the places you can catch fish. Love fishing those tiny streams

[@stevee270]

Great video! Production Value+10. Love the scenery and that small creek is just my deal. Thanks for taking the time!

[@DrWaddles]

Wow. Gotta wonder how these fish even end up in these little creeks. Great video!

[@izahiagrant9897]

I was thinking the same thing.. it's crazy

[@DrWaddles]

I'm guessing that the water is low. It probably fills close to the grass some parts of the year and allows fish in.

[@fabianwilliams4260]

sometimes birds will bring in fish eggs to ponds a streams

[@jaiyuzivert]

High tides... In a Forrest... Freshwater fish... I don't get that concept

[@joshstewart2296]

most likely birds. just like in farm ponds that have never been stocked but are full of fish.

[@kokkonutfreaks]

I love these tiny creek videos!

[@618Fishing]

haha thanks man I love fishing in these tiny creeks!

[@jubaldurden4638]

I teach and do a lot of long term survival training. Your video inspired me to include tiny hooks and lures to catch small fish in puddles for survival. I would have never considered those tiny bodies of water to contain fish that size.

[@merrillsargent5572]

[@feng208]

no big fish, just enjoying the process is nice

[@ShellyAnn1a]

While growing up, a bunch of us kids found a stream that was nearly as clear as you could hope for. To approach it to fish it, you had to crawl up to it, once there keep as low of a profile as possible. We would cast our line out and almost each time we would land a legal size rainbow. Which we wrapped in the thick clay that was found near there, then cooked in the coals of our campfire. Today, nearly 60 years later the small stream is polluted with fisherman's trash scattered along its length and mostly dries up during the summer months. It was fun as a young teenagers to get out and fish like that, unfortunately the current owners of the land will not allow anyone access to fish the stream anymore. Even if we assure the owner that we will pack out our trash and some of the trash left by others. Thanks to those who have no regard for others property, a fun little stream is now closed. Love your fishing videos, had a stroke a few years ago and can no longer get out to do many of the things I used to love doing, so at 70y/o, I live the out of doors vicariously through the videos of those who still can get out and do it with the presence of mind to record what they do. Enjoy the out of doors for as long as you can, before the ability is taken away from you.

[@Kingery]

Pretty cool, I remember visiting my grandma in GA as a kid I would walk through the woods and fish tiny creeks just like that. It's amazing how many different species of baby fish hang out in them.

Born and raised...a Show Me boy. Walked many a creek with a microlight spinning outfit...priceless. Oh dude come on... it’s not your first time out. You fish until it’s dark and you can’t see, when you hear all kinds of spooky noises walking back and the mosquitoes are chewing your a*s up. That’s a great growing up day to remember...forever.

[@peteralanturner9296]

We have a tiny stream flowing down a mountain near our deer camp. It's loaded w/native brook trout. Lots of fun to fish and eat.

[@Brunnen_Gee]

It's a blast. I haven't caught a bass _quite_ that small, but I've caught some smallies pretty dang close to it. Even at that size they put up a good fight on ultralight gear. I actually just caught my smallest largemouth ever tonight, but it was still almost double the size of the one in this video.

I love finding them little brooks that hold native brook trout, in most of my experience, if its a brook that never stops flowing all year it will have fish in it, to me its like finding a jack pot. one time I fished a brook hoping to find some and didn't, so I kept walking to a major river that the little one flowed to and caught some nice stalked trout then on my way back I actually saw a baby fish 2 inches long dead I took a closer look and it was a brook trout so I kept walking up that little brook and bam started catching little native 4-6 inches long, mostly catch and release but if they get injured I take them home to the wife and we all enjoy, its the only fish she will eat, hoping to post some fishing videos myself this year with my boy he loves his fishing and he's 5 and yes he has caught some natives and begs me to take them home so he can eat them. we compromise thanks for sharing.

[@impeachyaspie]

This video makes me feel so happy and satisfied. Those fish are so tiny and cute!

[@vikingoutdoor3179]

Such a sweet little micro rod setup. Creek fishing is fun because sometimes its almost trying to go opposite and not see how big you can catch em, but how small. Haha.

[@tkguyok]

This brings back memories, when I was about 12 years old, I use to go and fish in a branch near our house. I used a homemade pole and my Dad had got me some minnow hooks, #18 or #20 blue wire hooks. I think they were the smallest hooks you could get. Anyway there was a hole that might have been about 18 inches deep. I didn’t catch an small bream or bass, but I did catch minnows, they were yellow with a black stripe down each side and a larger minnow that had hard horn, spike like growths on its head. I would catch and release them. They got full of worms and I got the fun of catching them. I would always hang them in their lips. Is there any minnows in that stream? Thank you for sharing! I subscribed.

[@tkguyok]

I used like a 4 lb. or 6 lb. line, large test line will not fit through the small eye of these tiny hooks.

Even tho i'm fishing some of the decent and sizable fish, but sometime fish and small one is quite fun and exciting especialy if it for you having a aquarium pet. You kept that fish as your pet and you fed them and see them growing is also another rewarding experience. I happen to fishing in a small creek with my smallest hook and rod and i had a rare Yellowtail Rosbusra in the end of my line and now it reside in my small aquarium as my pet.

[@Twitter_Posts]

I have a question. What happens to the bass that live and grow up in these small creeks?? I’ve never seen a big bass in creeks like this, but I always catch small baby ones.
