I’m fishing in some clear water creeks and streams in central Texas around the Austin area for a variety on sunfish species and sharing some tips and techniques for bank fishing and wade fishing. I used a crawfish plastic worm on a small 1/8 oz wacky football jig head for most of the trip. These small creek fish love to eat crawfish and it was the perfect size bait for these fish. I caught Largemouth bass, Guadalupe bass, Green Ear Sunfish, Warmouth, Bluegill, and Texas Cichlids. Fishing in these creeks can be tough because of the ultra clear water, so I went down to 8lb test fluorocarbon fishing line and light action spinning rods and reels. I also had to keep a low profile while bank fishing and be stealthy when wade fishing because of the clear water. Creek fishing can be a fun adventure, and it’s the perfect way to fish on a hot early fall day in Texas. For the underwater shots, I rigged my gopro hero 4 with the underwater housing and used a pole to film the fish.

Do you need a fishing license to fish in small creeks in Texas?
Hi šāāļø LFGā¤ā¤ā¤ā¤ā¤ā¤ā¤ā¤ā¤ā¤ā¤
Thats nolan creek, in belton.
Looks like Nolan Creek in downtown Belton. I've caught some Guadeloupe bass in there, also alot of large mouth and gar.
Is no one scared of snakes?
Love the video, looks beautiful! No mondos though lol!š
What creek was the first one called?
I'd love for you to come back. I'm currently tearing up the Austin creeks.
LOVE THE VIDEO
I enjoy all your videos but this one is probably my favorite!!
Getting flashbacks to pop up video!
How do you find creeks like this?? I would love to do this
Nice type of fishing. We dont use 'jellies' here in England much apart from shads for Pikeing.
What is the name of the fish with the solid black stripe?
i like the viedo cause that what I do here in jacksonvillie floida but I cant stand in the water like ypu can but keep posting viedo like this I love stream and creek fishing viedos
I just bought those Craws. They're so small but realistic and smelly.
LOVE the creek videos
My favorite type of fishing. Almost no pressure. Great video.
LFG ya'll should do a catch n cook w/ bluegill, yes they are small but they are water candy!
Love your videos I learn a lot.
I live in west houston and i love fishing crawfish baits in the bayou next to my house. No matter what size they are, they love swallowing these damn things!
Gave it a like just off the intro great stuff man
Love this type of videos..
Whenever I fish creeks, I use a ned rig. Before Z Man took over in that stuff, I use to use a piece of a YUM Dinger or Big Bite Baits stick bait and put it on a round shaky head. Works all the time for me up here in NY. We have A LOT of rock bass.
couldnt help but look at the size of those sunfish and think, mmmmmmm fish fry. those greenies are good eating and good amount of meat for a panfish
New Braunfels?
Creek Freaks

I love Creek Fishing fun of Florida you're limited and you have to deal with cottonmouth and Gators so watch your step.
I live in Ft. Hood and it may be impossible but I would love to go fishing with you at Belton Lake or somewhere like that, I am still learning freshwater fishing I'm new to it I've done saltwater my whole life. hope you see this
Whole new level. Not while. Stupid auto correct..
That's the way I like to fish dude. Creek fish are a while new level of aggressive. They are best in the heat of the summer when food is scarce.
Love your creek fishing videos! I could watch them all day. Probably the most up close and personal kind of fishing that you can do and the scenery can't be beat!
Nice video what creek?
VERY helpful. I have some small craw lures that I'll be trying now!!
Love Texas šØš±šŖš¼
I live in that town!!!!! Holy cow!!!!!!!
