[Mkato320]

[chickendoodoo]

[MaudsPas]

How is the cleanup going?

[5512unknown]

Nice Fishing Vid. I used to live in a neighborhood with a little creek that ran through it and I caught plenty of bluegills and suckers. I used crayfish, gum lol, and worms.

[anglerth]

That creek is pretty crappy lokking thats ashame

[AwesomeDudes14]

i love being able to fish without a liscense haha only 1 year left tho

[2bluegillinapond]

its a shame what peopl have done to that creek

[bfmv7557]

what part or area of the creek was this?

[randjfriends]

what do you do with all of the bluegills you catch?

[cardonaman]

thats to bad for all that trash in the water =/

[drewsturrrrr]

@cardonaman Actually Myself and other conservationthe ist are in the works of cleaning and preserving coyote creek.

[cardonaman]

@drewsturrrrr thats great! good luck!!!

[jjhyphy]

what kind of bait is good here?/ i live close by and i am trying to actually catch something thiss time...unlike when i go to lakes

[drewsturrrrr]

@jjhyphy you can only use artificials in the creek and barbless hooks so bass is the main target in the creek. I catch most of the them sightfishing. Most of the bluegills im catching right now are coming from hellyer lake and catfish and carp there aswell

[xoxoHoller]

yea i catch and release..but i mean for real u kept those fish and i suppose u ate them with all that trash in the water...have fun gettin sick.

[drewsturrrrr]

@xoxoHoller Before you say something please read my previous comments. I did not bring the fish home to eat. Nor woul;d i ever do that. The only reason why i put them in the buck was to see how many i caught by the end of the day. Then i released them

[Hookinem]

@drewsturrrrr Do you have an aerator in that bucket?... Fish need oxygenated water.

[HiWay69s]

STOP LITTERING!!!

[Dudgi66]

you said 1,2 like 15 times lol

[getabite]

drewsturr it was nice meeting you at calero resavoir we need to hook up again and go catch some fish :) coyote creek opens again on the 25th.

[drewsturrrrr]

thanks ignacio, it was nice meeting you to! stay in touch and hopefully we'll fish soon

@ooglie616

1) How do you know he didn't? My motto when fishing is to pack out all of my own garbage and some of somebody else's, but I don't make videos of it and post them on Youtube.

2) Why don't you get out and do it? You seem to be identifying a problem and saying "Hey, somebody do something about this!" That doesn't give you much credibility if you're not doing something about it yourself.

[drewsturrrrr]

haha thanks bro!

[yamamefish]

Are fish from Coyote Creek safe to eat? Most of it is downstream from Anderson, and all the fish there are classed either yellow (one serving a week max) or red (do not eat) because of mercury. That's why I generally stay away from the Santa Clara County lakes; I like to eat my catch :(

[drewsturrrrr]

I mostly fish for fun only certain species i keep. I only put them in the bucket to see how how many we catch then release them after

[yamamefish]

@drewsturrrrr

Bluegill are usually one of the good ones to keep (maybe not from Coyote Creek, but...) since overpopulation tends to be a problem. There's a reason why panfish are no-limit in most places.

Recent work by biologists has also suggested that minimum size limits are the wrong model and to keep the small ones and release the big ones. Since hearing this, I've stopped throwing back any small bluegill. And guess what? I found out the smaller ones taste better, too :-)

[Hockeyyordiee]

those are little guys u dont eat them do u u should let them go keep the bigger ones but good vid

[yamamefish]

Not necessarily. If you keep up with more recent thought in fisheries biology, the better practice is actually to keep the smaller fish and release the big ones so they can pass on their superior genes. Particularly with bluegill and other panfish, throwing back the small ones to "let them grow" tends to result in lots of small fish and very few, or no, big ones.

Culling out the little ones means more food for the rest, and better growth. Plus, the small ones usually taste better.

[ChrisH11515]

@Hockeyyordiee actually ure supposed to eat little ones,mature bbluegills are needed to keep a healthy spawning population. :)

[radlations]

Yo drew. I know that exact spot with the sunken branch and trash. Lots of bluegill there. You think there are any bluegill there now? It's kinda cold for them. What do you use for bass there? I've only seen small ones.

[drewsturrrrr]

theres tons of fish there goota wait till season opens up plus that when the fish bite. There bluegills, carp, suckers, bass, and catfish. I see big bass but for some reason the bass would never bite!

[spendizzzle]

thats alot of polution, sometimes i hate california...

[drewsturrrrr]

Yeah they need to clean up san jose's water!

[AliveRevolution]

Looks relaxing and fun to do

[KentuckyAnglers]

God, this creek brings back the memory of when I was fishing at my creek, and some dude threw a giant bag of trash out the window and it fell on my head lol

[drewsturrrrr]

Yeah small creek or other small ponds that are you "spot" are so fun because you have so many memories of it. Sorry to here bout you head

[Sk8rdude34]

[drewsturrrrr]
