Just recently got into creek fishing here in MS. I love it. Targeting bluegill and rock bass. I use a Lew's ultralight with a 4'6" zebco hotcast. I use 6lb braid because it casts so much better and i use a 4lb mono leader. All in all, a $30 set up but i cant put it down. It works so well.

Love the 1 inch Comal pear floats for jig n bobber rigged with a 32nd ounce and a 16th on the bottom makes it perfectly weighted so when a fish grabs your bait they barely notice any resistance. For longer range Ill use a bigger Cigar float with 2 16ths which seems to work better because its more streamline so you can cast em a mile.

I began using this rig in the California north coast steelhead rivers. I then sized it down for trout fishing, then smallmouth bass and gills. I especially like to use it with a big #4 bead head Wooly Bugger for trout in Wyoming and Montana :)

I have never used honey worms for creek chub. It is funny because this is one of the few videos I have seen that almost targets them. Sometimes, I specifically go to small streams that I know only hold greenies and monster chub and I think it is quite fun. I don't really use expensive gear to fish for chubs because a Dock Demon or a Dock Runner will do the job and I fish areas with HEAVY cover. I frequently slip and fall while wading and fishing with nice stuff is not really an option because it would get destroyed. My question is how well do the honey worms hold up? I frequently use small tubes and Gulp minnows and the chubs are extremely aggressive. They will bite off all of the bait within one or two casts. I also frequently break hooks getting them out of their very tough mouths. Chubs also fight like crazy if you get a big one. I have caught them up to about 10 inches in tiny tiny creeks. Thanks for sharing and I really enjoy your videos.

Thanks Stephen! Totally makes sense to get the Dock Demon. I was thinking about picking one up for that same reason. And the Honey Worms hold up better than a Gulp Minnow for sure. I think you will be pleasantly surprised with how well they work! It has become one of my best budget baits for multispecies.

you know what you might like just as much is doing ultralight santee drift rigging, it's basically carolina-rig dragging a float'n'bait, here is the rig build sequence: 1/16-1/8oz egg/bullet sinker>klacker-bead>Swivel>12-18" leader>gum-drop floater>honey worm or bait of the day>profit! it's great for bigger/deeper creak pools and bay coves. protip: have your local bait shop or friendly fly tyer put some hair on some of the gum-drop floaters; if you work it right the gum-drop floaters can even catch fish without being tipped with bait.
