I love the scriptures after each videos!

Can we just take a moment to appreciate this man and all he does

[@williamvaughn6074]

Amen. Best fishing channel . Good man .

[@JG-iw8mh]

For me your videos are pretty relatable for the type of fishing in my area and it’s realistic your not a bass dude with thousands in equipment.

[@christopherwood2290]

He keeps it simple. That is the way fishing is meant to be.

[@River-Banks360]

AMEN! I luv your videos John! Your in my top two favorite you tube channels! I guess cause you fish how I grew up fishing! Also you love Jesus!

[@larryd4352]

Being disabled, I really enjoy watching fishing channels. I can't get out and fish unless I can fish off a pier, or someplace where I can sit down. Even then, carrying equipment and portable folding chair can require more than one trip...which is difficult for me. So, thanks for the enjoyable content!

[@williamvaughn6074]

Just keep the lines wet ! Enjoy nature, Love God !

[@richardcraig8780]

I like how you get right to the fishing on your videos. And pick some really good spots too. 👍

[@CastBlastCamp]

I just fished below that dam today! (#1) No bites below but above had some! New vid coming out soon! Nice fishing , keep at it brother!

[@JoelWetzel]

Not having a boat, your wading videos really inspire me. I still think kayaks are a bit hectic looking for fishing but you make them look better than anyone else on youtube. Peace.

[@AaronsOutdoor1]

That’s awesome there was a lot of fish in there. I’ve passed that spot a bunch of times but never fished it. I was definitely surprised you caught so many more largemouth than smallmouth.

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

yeah i need to try again

[@steveboggs9777]

Sure glad I'm not the only one that has a slow day on the water. Like you, my good days far out number the bad ones.

[@TroutNTrees]

Keep up the good work! You truly are one of my absolute favorite youtubers! Stay blessed sir.

[@andrewshuford]

You have done good John, we love your videos so proud of you man, hang in there. Stay safe and God Bless.

[@johngarrod7943]

There is nothing quite as frustrating as watching you fish the exact same areas I have, and you pull out WAY more fish than I do! This one was a great example. Still, any day fishing is better than any day on the j-o-b, so it's all good stuff.

[@johnathansawyer8736]

Congratulations man! That's awesome! I'm hoping to be able to do the same except, I want to keep my hands in everything! lol

[@911life5]

It would be cool to see you do live bait. I’ve been trying to use 3 inch minnows either on a Carolina rig or under a large float. You will catch anything from catfish to bass to perch. “Cotton’s Place” gas station in Benton sales the larger minnows and they get new minnows in every Thursday.

[@jchris3841]

Love watching you bro! You make me make time for myself to go fishing. For that, I am thankful.

[@billybobbill]

I really enjoy watching Creek Fishing Adventure since I can't seem to get out to fish. Love the scripture also.

[@timberryhill658]

John thanks for putting out such awesome videos. I'm glad this is working out for you but, it's a win for us too. We get to see places in God's creation that we normally wouldn't get to see. We also get to watch you catch a variety of fish, and we get the Gospel at the end. I'd say that's a win, win, win, win! keep doing what you do. God bless brother.

[@charlesbrowder8416]

Always wondered about that spot now I got a idea what to expect 👍

[@rbishop12399]

yes out on the kayak... great video!

[@christopherwood2290]

John, write this down. Sooner or later some fisherman will recognize you and ask for an autograph or either a picture with you.

Yellow perch are Pretty Cool. Very funny fish in NC though. 3 regions in NC . Mountains, Piedmont, and Coastal Plain. The mountains have a few lakes where bIg Perch can be caught. The Piedmont mostly has small ones. rarely a good one. no one knows why. The biggest ones in NC are found in Blackwater coastal streams.

[@dyergoldprospecting]

[@user-bn3zo3mh5v]

I have a couple friends that fished above Ocoee Dam #3. They said it was a fish every cast but I can't remember what they were catching though. They had to walk a tiny flat bottom down there though. Maybe your kayak would be easier. Went to the lower Hiwasee today and it was crazy hot. Nothing on 2 different Whopper ploppers. Got 1 white bass on a silver spoon. Nothing on Fluke or other swim baits. When it gets this hot I tend to cruise more than fish just to stay cool. About ready for some night fishing on the Chickamauga since the Hiwasee is failing me. Ever want to night fish later in the summer let me know.

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

yeah i have fished above ocoee 3 and there is a lot of perch

[@ryank5761]

There are massive, massive spotted bass in there. There and Parksville Lake

[@CreekFishingAdventures]

yeah i have seen some giants, maybe i can catch one someday

[@themadcatter5849]

I fish like crazy, then come home and watch him fish and I have just as much fun. Fishing in my north Texas lakes aren’t near as pretty as some other states. Plus it’s hotter than two rats wrestling in a wool sock.

[@ronaldshank7589]

Great video, and I thought I'd let you know, also, that I came across a text from another video, about somebody wanting to change their life. Right then and there, God opened up the door for me to tell them about Jesus, and that he is the ONLY ONE that can save their soul, and change their life. I don't really like being hated on, and I'm thinking that that is something that could happen, but if I'm hated on, it proves that, when it comes to God, that I'm on the right track. It also proves that the Devil can't stand our messages of Salvation...but I ain't gonna stop preaching Jesus!!! Have a great day, and God bless you!!!

Is there a lot of areas to park up there or is it you just have to park on the side of the road somewhere kind of thing? I’ve been wanting to drive up there and fish some of those spots but I’ve never been and don’t wanna drive up if I’ve gotta park randomly on the side of the road (always worry someone is gonna hit it or it’ll get towed etc lol)
