Where do the fish go? Every winter I ask myself that question about the4 small creek fish. Trying to catch anything during a really cold week.

@greenwoodsbushhogging6704 6 месяцев назад

They go as deep as possible and tuck under rocks, logs, and other debris. Unless it's a super sunny day, they're usually just sitting there in hibernation for the most part. I grew up playing in creeks, and that's what I've observed throughout the years.

@HHH-nv9xb 6 месяцев назад

Agree. My observation is based on my koi and goldfish pond.

@CountryCrittersofLI 6 месяцев назад

Just a heads up if the air temperature is below freezing try to keep the fish in the water. It damages their gill filaments if the water freezes.

@mikeboyce584 6 месяцев назад

You're a brave man, John Dalton. I don't go outside In this weather and definitely don't fish. But we thank you. Your legend lives on.

Wading/walking the stream is your friend in the winter. You need to cover water to find the deep holes and undercuts you don't even realize are there.

@dw6506 6 месяцев назад

I knew a guy back in the 80’s that cast out past some ducks and one of them swallowed his bait. The only thing we knew to do was cut the line as short as possible to the duck. I’ve thought about that poor duck a lot of the years. You’re a better man than I fishing in that temp. But thank you

@TheTXAngler 6 месяцев назад

Love the content and how you are open about your faith! Same thing down in here in Texas, when winter season comes it’s tough fishing for those warm weather species. The fish usually start spawning here in March and spawn through May. That’s my favorite time to be wading the creeks!

Nice! Most of the creeks around me all you will catch right now are refin or Chain pickerel. now go 1 hour east or better 2 hours east and you can get into more fish but around me the pickeral are king right now.

@gregchilders7643 6 месяцев назад

@ericharrison8950 6 месяцев назад

I've asked my the same questions hundreds of times, and I've asked others MANY times, "Where do the fish go in the winter?" I've even considered that the aliens come and take them, then bring them back in the spring? They just disappear, then reappear when it's warm? So strange!

@creekfreak8936 6 месяцев назад

I always assumed they swim out to the next bigger body of water the stream is attached too.

@therivergiveth 6 месяцев назад

They move down the watershed until they find warmer water - which depending on the watershed could be a lake or deep holes in a river. It's pretty well documented.

@bradlaney71 6 месяцев назад

@@therivergivethI agree with you on moving down the watershed to warmer water. Often to deeper water. I have also seen in some creeks where they move to a different creek arm or branch that is measurably warmer. All depends on the creek in my experience.

@robdy7244 6 месяцев назад

As always great video John. Here in Midwest Arkansas it been cold and tonight freezing rain. Have a Blessed day.

@steveklick 6 месяцев назад

Yeah, the fish will group up in holes and shut off. Also there are a lot of spots on the banks that cut under the ground quite a ways and they'll be there or if there are any pond areas that will be warmer water and they will go there.

@bustinfins 6 месяцев назад

@mattbailey7049 6 месяцев назад

I tried fishing creeks a little last winter a few times. Just caught a shiner or two also. One in Little Turkey Creek in Farragut. Shiners like the rooster tails when i catch em. If i thought i could catch that many shiners down at Beaver creek tomorrow I’d for sure try to go.

@TheHemiphil81 6 месяцев назад

Brother we are 6 degrees here in Townsend Tennessee. We had 7 to 8 inches of snow and now it's all ice. You are a fish catching king.

@stevedupree525 6 месяцев назад

The same thing happened in the creek on my parents property outside of Chattanooga. You can catch smallmouth,red eye,bluegill and redbreast from Spring through about November. Then they disappear. I suspect they head downstream to a deeper stream once cold weather hits.

@albertc1241 6 месяцев назад

With that being a spring fed stream, if you know where the spring starts feeding, start there. The water will be warmer when it comes out of the ground.

@3LLOut 6 месяцев назад

I have found fish in the "holes" along our creeks where the underground water openings are larger (basically a sinkhole with none-limestone rock above it), but in this kind of cold I think they sink deep into those areas. That undercut bank could be similar to what I see around here. We haven't gotten above freezing yet... tomorrow just before all the rain moves in for us, I think.

@arthouston7407 6 месяцев назад

If it's a spring fed creek, most of the fish will be closer to the spring where the water will be warmer in the winter

@dwhitt164 6 месяцев назад

Other than bait fish, salamanders and crayfish, what else could they feed on. Hellgramites....trout will eat caddis larvae and the like. I imagine red wrigglers are rare. 4 days this week in the mid to high 60's. That will cause a caddis hatch. If the weather accommodates, we used to have blizzards if caddis on Toccoa in Ga. Usually in February. Biggest hatch of the entire year. I have not seen that big hatch in years. But small hatches will occur.

Drop shot the deepest holes? I know Ethan *FishAnything drop shots ultralight. But, I agree, it can be hard to find panfish in creeks and ponds in winter. Another thought - an expert panfisher in the Chesapeake uses a piece of felt with Anise on it - maybe scent will help?

Looks like you all got a lot less snow than we did in upper-east tennessee. Supposed to get up in the mid-high 50's and rain later this week. Hoping the warmer temps, rain, and snow melt get them stirred up and biting.

@ri-jm5tn 6 месяцев назад

It seems to me that most of the fish migrate to larger/deeper water. I’ve had decent success on smallies while barely moving a small craw along the bottom. We have 8” of snow and 9 degrees, a bit more challenging conditions than I want to fish😁

@dwhitt164 6 месяцев назад

They must look for deep water pools. And I imagine since the shallow water is more susceptible to temperature change, they must just shut down until the temp goes up.
