Is This the PERFECT River?? (Day 5)

[@TheGuntoter]

Thanks! Sorry that you took that spill on the first day, however, since then, you've had some nice fishing and today video is no exception. Keep up the great work, John. I watch all your videos. May the Lord protect you on all your adventures.

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

oh wow, thanks so much, it was a scary but could have been a lot worse

[@XxMrRoachxX]

18:53 That monster knew precisely how to shake that bull shad lure!!! Wasn't her first rodeo for sure ;) What an awesome river!!! Thanks John, God Bless!!!

[@Aqua_Holic_Fishing]

Yep, views descend on these summer videos, it sucks. Kids are back in school and temps will start declining. At this point, views will grow better than ever! Best of luck and keep throwing those lures.....

[@justinheath8160]

Looks like the Piney. If so, there is another section of the Buffalo within 25-30 miles from there that is also very good. They have shuttle service too.

[@jlibertyparks8160]

Yes it does

[@traviswoodyard7448]

Sure does I lived in dickson for 10 yes looks just like it to me .

[@austinc9474]

It is, piney camp and canoe. I don’t recommend it on the weekends though. It gets packed.

[@therivergiveth]

🤫

[@michaelkolacz4449]

The five rivers in five days was an enjoyable series to watch. I realize you can't go everywhere but it would be neat for you to repeat the series in other states.

[@douglaswilliams7509]

Best show on KZbin. Great work John !! God bless ya

[@chuckcombs185]

I’m a fan from your beginning. This was probably my favorite series of yours so far. I’m 51 and what you did this series is exactly what I enjoy the most from any fishing I’ve done! I’m from Kentucky and as a fan I really appreciate what you do. Keep up the great work and adventures! God Bless 🎣

[@tennesseekayakfishing5691]

For your lakes, you could do 5 days just in middle TN. Old Hickory, Percy Priest, Normandy, Woods, and Tims Ford.

[@allstarplumbingremodel1783]

absolutely beautiful....GREAT CATCHES...i would be swimming more than anything...lol...water is PERFECT

[@daneboro6847]

One of my favorite Bible verses, thanks John for always giving us a Bible verse, Amen and may God bless you Brother 🙏

[@prestonrussell605]

That river was so beautiful, I could see why people would want to kayak and canoe down it !

[@CHASIN_A_BASS]

This has been the best 5 days of youtube kayak fishing vids..from the chaotic start to epic back to back days of fishing.. hey keep you some bananas and water in this heat. Most headaches are dehydration of the brain. Bananas hold potassium and potassium hydrates the brain. God held you all the way thru this ...💪🏾💪🏾

[@heavenbound358]

THAT'S what makes smallmouth fishing SPECIAL! You thought you had a monster, but he was just average. THEY FIGHT LIKE MONSTERS IN CURRENT!! NOTHING like a smallmouth in strong current. My largest was 6pd. 21inch. Citation. It's the only one I've ever mounted. I've caught quite a few like it since I mounted that one. LOVE MY SMALLMOUTH

[@ZackaryFoxAdventures]

Awesome adventure John 😎

[@bran1886]

That river is stunningly beautiful, the color reminds me of the springs I would go to living in Florida.

[@douglaswarner3154]

I love the fishing action and crystal clear water !! 😊

[@MaxWaller-dh6en]

I love your stride for this journey and kayaking all of these rivers and just putting you mind to it😮

[@billhobson6637]

That was an awesome day! I love water like that and you made it work for you. Persistence pays.

[@joparker347]

Maybe a Land Between the Lakes series? Very little content on fishing in LBL and you can camp pretty much anywhere out there. Enjoyed this series for sure! I'm within a few hours of a couple of the rivers and will definitely try them out.

[@jeffcowan2667]

What a gorgeous river to fish. Really enjoyed this series.

[@jeffwarhurst6998]

Perseverance is inspiring. Great series. You've gotten me interested in fishing again. Thanks for that.

[@bbcustomoutdoors]

5 National Forest spots would be cool. And I definitely would like to see you fish the river you originally planned on when conditions are better.

[@KyleUselton-is6ue]

Exactly where I hoped you go! Great trip man. It's always a good trip when you leave and return home safe. Thanks for taking us with you man. Come on up to Virginia again and let's do a series here. Massive Small mouth!!! God bless!

[@earlwilliams2889]

John you did great on your trip it is realy hard to go and change from your orginal plan to secondary plan. but you are very sucessful thank you for the last years of watching you god really blesses you .

[@powersaustin63]

Great series John! You caught some really nice fish. Thanks for sharing!

[@maryannegreenslade78]

Another great day of fishing, that place was beautiful. Keep up the good work John🐟🎣🐟🎣

[@brianathern9154]

This was a great challenge series for sure. Clear water = tough fishing...bah! Bring it on. You had some really nice smallies but looked like you were wearing down at the end. Excellent perseverance brother. Now stay in the kayak and hydrate with bottled water please. Even this old dog isn't immune to dehydration. Thanks for blessings us brother

[@jeffhancock8917]

Thank you, John! God bless,

[@andrew_brent]

Hang in there John, you are my first YT subscription, been loving your videos since you had around 7k subs. God bless from western NC

[@bloodculprit111]

It's the piney river!!! Such a gorgeous place I've been there many times

[@johnnyweaver1300]

Ive enjoyed this series, i liked what you said about clear water, no problem I'm used to it, nice catch on that 17.5 smallie!👍

[@bartbuskey238]

This has been a great series you put together. Thank you. A suggestion would be five days of fishing with 5 different KZbinrs from Florida. It would be fun to see you do some ocean fishing with Darciizzle, fishingaholic, Cameraman Ron, etcetera.

[@dennisstewart7849]

Congratulations, on a great trip across Tennessee. Don't backdown, you have a plan, just follow it.

[@wrightackle1]

I will never understand how people can be around the water and not fish. You answered a question about anchoring that I have been wanting to ask. It would drive me bonkers going past some of these spots without being able to fish them. This was a really fun series to follow.

[@NoGamble.NoFuture.]

Thx to this channel I'm back into fishing after nearly 20 years. I've gone damn near every weekend this summer and yet to have been skunked. 🎣😄

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

well done

[@PaintedTurtle001]

Beautiful stream. Sweet fishing!

[@ri-jm5tn]

Outstanding! I may just have to make the 10hr drive to fish that water, wow!

[@WadeLife]

This is one river I haven't fished yet seeing the put in told me exactly where I've seen it in many other yt channels..😅🎣✌️Greetings from Mid-Tennessee myself we've talked over dm's a couple of times...

[@randyblevins9489]

What a cool way to end up on number 5 ! Such a beautiful waterway. That 17 1/2 incher got my heart going (not to mention that beaut. that threw the Bull shad) ! This has been a great series for you and all of us. You have floated some ideas of other series that you might like to try someday. Just know that we ALL are with you no matter what the content. GOD has blessed you! Take a little time off and rest a little while...... then get right back out there. LOL ! Always be careful. Pap Blevins

[@EngineeringHooksets]

Sure looks like a perfect river. Awesome float

[@SalCannatella]

This had to be a physically and mentally taxing journey. Great job and way to be persistent and innovative during this trip. Love the ‘series’ approach. Keep up the great work!

[@danielviens1687]

Aside from the first day when you flipped the kayak and lost a rod it’s was a great trip I enjoyed watching but then I always enjoy your videos! That’s why I am a subscriber for at least 3 years! Nice job!!!!

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

That is awesome!

[@mopslopanbucket]

That double cast was legendary!

[@macroman91]

Nice to see you getting out around my neck of the woods.

[@danielhibdon7216]

John you came to my hometown and fished the piney river. Loved this series. Glad you had a good time on the piney. I love fishing it in the spring.

[@gregstabryla9945]

Thanks for taking us on this trip. It's been great, with the ups and downs and all.

[@micahgrim2597]

I’m sure you were glad to get back to home sweet home. You’ve been really persistent with some tough knocks along the way. Thank you for the hard work, John. Prayers for your safety always!

[@JD-HALL]

Great series! Thanks John.

[@sethjohnsonoutdoors4055]

Awesome looking river and amazing smallmouth bass Jon!!! Appreciate the hard work you put into these videos 📹 💪 🙌

[@markgray8360]

Thank you for doing this, it's a blessing to a lot of us for someone like you to do this and bring us along.

[@The66Leadfoot]

Im really enjoying this Playlist John! Thanks for all your videos.

[@johnbubbajohnson5630]

No John, but you did have Dickson Tenn. at the being of this video. It looked awesome there. God bless you and your whole family..🙏❤🙏❤🙏

[@Fisherman_83]

This new 5 day 5 Different fisheries is definitely one of my favorites. Also like the Tournament’s also. Hope to see another adventure like this.

[@nathanm2571]

Great job! Thanks for taking us along.

[@rcieszkowski]

WOW John! That looked like one of your coolest floats ever. Thanks for taking us along. And CFA merch?! I hope your sister’s ready for what’s about to happen…

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

Thanks, I’m excited about the merch and have some new designs coming out soon

[@chadburton4659]

Loved the series John, perfect representation of you and your channel! Keep it coming man, appreciate ya

[@b-rad5849]

I love the West Piney River. It's a great fishery. If you loved it, then you would also really enjoy Jones Creek in Dickson County as well. Crystal clear waters and really nice fish. Highly recommend walking it sometime.

[@mjenner1451]

I enjoy your content very much. Keep it coming and be safe out there. God bless!

[@raygissendanner1476]

Beautiful place some great fish thank you for a great video

[@1jimif]

Day 5 does not disappoint! Thanx John, I loved this whole series....FishOn....jimi

[@thevolunteerfisherman8575]

I think you should do a series on fishing with struggling Tennessee Creators. You can start with me. Have boat, Kayak and will travel. 😁😁 Love your content John. Been watching you for ever. I remember being on your live stream the night you hit 1000. Seems like yesterday.

[@patrickmahoney3479]

This is the best fishing channel out there. Thank you for taking us on your adventures.

[@GreatPlainsKayakAngler-dr8gg]

Wow, more beautiful waters to float fish! Great job logging & sharing this adventure, I’m inspired for sure! Blessings Dude!

[@davidcox9674]

Awesome series. I love watching you get those Smallmouths as they look and behave very similar to the Aussie Bass I chase here in Australia. Keep them coming 👍

[@timmcarthur9220]

Very well done with this series.

[@Lancelot59]

This was an awesome series. I got some great ideas from it. I also met one of your Athens friends today on the little Pigeon River. Conner. We talked about how much your channels has helped our fishing. From the Hellgrammite to the John Dingger...l.ol Keep up the great work !!!

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

That's awesome!

[@heggie5140]

Down in my neck of the woods I see. That river and the last one you was at are loaded with smallies. Love your videos. Been watching for some years now.

[@christiankell6074]

You gotta be the most blessed man alive in my book....What a trip pal. GOD BLESS ANDGO KATS!!!!!!!!!! By chance are you going to have 4xl shirts at some point. I am vary interested in getting one... Keep up the great work John....Lets go fishing sometime.

[@davidtanner6834]

Really enjoyed following your trek across Tennessee. As always, thanks for sharing your adventures

[@JillForJesus]

thank you. prayers and blessings from murfreesboro tennessee...........

[@DoubleBogeyBass]

Oh man this is awesome, I lived in Dickson for 14 years and fished many small creeks in the area, but never got a chance to kayak fish in the area. This really makes me want to go back and do it! My PB small mouth is still from a Dickson creek, caught him on a Texas rigged lizard.

[@samuelschult985]

Thanks for doing what you do because it turned out to be a great experience 👍

[@btiborroberts3045]

Great series, John. Do push yourself, but stay safe.

[@claydankewich9582]

Chad Hoover said you were the top dog on youtube. I gotta agree great content.

[@michaeltichonuk2176]

Completely enjoyed this series! I appreciate you posting and bringing us, me, along! Nice catches too!!! Wow!

[@cocafan33]

This is my go to River. You killed it. It can definitely be a tough river some days to fish. There’s 20”+ in there and trophy rock bass too. Largemouth and spots are there as well but not prevalent. Can’t wait to float this river again next year.

[@robdz22]

Would love to see you do a primitive camp/float trip. That’s always been my favorite way to fish the Buffalo River in Arkansas. Great job, your videos are getting better and better. Keep it up brother!

[@mscottstone08]

The piney is a great small mouth River. We have been catching pig smallies there on chubs for years!

[@TheProIceberg]

You have turned into my favorite youtuber, thank you for the great videos and keep up the great series. Hopefully more to come!

[@GaryFrench-s1u]

I really enjoyed the series. Thank you for keeping in the segment of flipping the kayak. Having lived through a few experiences as a kid and an adult where I have either flipped a canoe or broken a canoe against a tree, I know that it is always a possibility. You are keeping it real.

[@brentreynolds5381]

Amazing Journey John. Glad we could be part of it. Time to watch!

[@jayhuber1744]

This series was great, enjoyed all of it. Way to hang in there and keep going!

[@how_nate_rolls4603]

Good stuff. Love this series. That’s my home town and home waters you’re in on this video.

[@j-kray274]

such a cool idea. Looking forward to maybe doing an annual tour of TN?

[@ronmixson7637]

Another great video!!! Thanks for taking us along. Beautiful places you show us and great fishing. Loved the whole series!!

[@mikeboyce584]

I like that challenge accepted. Bold backed up. What a finish to the perfect adventure. A mix of all things possible. What a perfect ending to the best video to what your channel is all about. Well done John!

[@michaelmoore7343]

My wife and I run the canoe camp. Glad you came out .

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

oh thats awesome, it was really nice and i hope to get back soon

[@thevolunteerfisherman8575]

This river is one of my favorite in the state. I've only been there once when it was a struggle to catch anything and that was mainly because of a severe storm that moved through. Lots of big smallies in there.

[@tedsalmon2533]

Is that the Duck or Buffalo river?

[@thevolunteerfisherman8575]

@tedsalmon2533 pretty sure it's the Duck. Could be wrong but, thats what it looks like. Buffalo is very similar, but it reminds me more of the Duck.

[@michaelmoore7343]

Piney river

[@melissajohnson3547]

I'm glad you didn't give up and kept on going. Loved this video series was absolutely awesome and getting to see the beautiful scenery. Love watching your videos.

[@oldschoolhawking8191]

A big thumbs-up 👍 on the 5-day Adventure, I enjoyed every minute of it. Good job John!😎🎣

[@waterratlyle2590]

This is a great series I think all of your ideas would be well rewarded. If you did them all, it'll be fun to see and take us with you as well great job.

[@charlesbrowder8416]

Awesome video and river nice catches 👍

[@leoveroude4492]

Tennessee is God's country. Amazing.

[@JT.Angler7]

I would love to see you do this in Southern Missouri with all their rivers. Huge smallies in the Gasconade!

[@BurqueMD]

What a great series. Thanks so much for taking us a long!

[@JerryN856]

Great week John and I really enjoyed it. Quite the adventure. Any similar series would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for sharing these.

[@chubbydamron672]

Great trip! Great fishing in TN, I visit from VA often to throw fly’s at the Trout on the east side of the state, one of my favorites!

[@christhopeministriesjasonc3077]

Thank you for your content and for sharing your faith! I think it’s awesome that you continued after flipping because you showed how it really is 😂. That’s fishing for me and it’s also life. We go through a lot bumps in the road but we stay on the journey and we get to see the blessings throughout the struggles. God bless you brother I’m glad I found you 🙏🙏🙏❤️

[@givemeabreakdoc]

That canoe rental has literally ruined piney river. I grew up on that river, and you could put in almost anywhere there was a bridge or pull off. Once that place opened up, property owners all up and down the river closed off their properties.

[@pauldavis386]

Duck river is same. It’s a shame

[@givemeabreakdoc]

@@pauldavis386 ducks clear on my end……for now. Piney and buffalo ruined. Swan is clear only because the land owners won’t allow it. Still all farms the entire length, but they’ve shut down all access, thanks to the idiots that started camping on the sand bars, drinking, shooting guns, etc. I’ve fished all 4 my entire life. Only reason duck is accessible is because of public ramps. Luckily, I have access below the canoe rental on piney.

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

its aggravating but it lets a lot of people get to enjoy it also

[@jerrylee2698]

great 5 days of fishing

[@garythomas6589]

Great 5 days series. Love your content.
