It doesn't matter whom exactly your worship in hinduism, just so long as you do it with devotion and truth. I don't think its say anything about specifically worshipping Lord Brahma but he is the almighty. But remember hinduism's concept of God shows one God in different forms for different purposes so I guess thats why we worship different Gods. You decide for yourself who you want to worship.

Its good to pray to God in any form you are comfortable with. Brahma is said to be the creator of the universe. However, it should be noted that Brahma was created by Lord Vishnu. But once you pray from the heart, you're in the right direction.

Bhagavad Gita and all Great Acharyas as Sankracharya, Madhva charya, Ramanuj acharya, don’t advice us to worship any Devata or Demigod…
Brahma, Shiva, Ganesh, Durga are all Demigods or Devata. They are all under the Supreme God Vishnu or Krishna.
Even Brahma himself states this
“There are many personalities possessing the qualities of Bhagavan, but Krishna is the supreme because none can excel Him. He is the Supreme Person, and His body is eternal, full of knowledge and bliss. He is the primeval Lord Govinda and the cause of all causes.” (Brahma-samhita 5.1) . So even Brahma is worhiping Krishna or Govinda.
It is Said Strongly in Bhagavad Gita
“Those whose intelligence has been stolen by material desires surrender unto demigods and follow the particular rules and regulations of worship according to their own natures.” (BG 7.20)
You get no benefit by Such worship of Demigods, for all benefits are given by Krishna himself. why then worship a Demigod..
“Endowed with such a faith, he endeavors to worship a particular demigod and obtains his desires. But in actuality these benefits are bestowed by Me alone.” (BG – 7.22)
Krishna says clearly in the conclusion of Bhagavad Gita (18.66)
“Abandon all varieties of religion and just surrender unto Me. I shall deliver you from all sinful reactions. Do not fear.” He does not ask us to surrender to Brahma.
And this is What Lord Shiva Says (Gita Mahatmaya 7)
“In this present day, people are very much eager to have one scripture, one God, one religion, and one occupation. Therefore, “eka Sastra devaki-putra-gitam”: let there be one scripture only, one common scripture for the whole world—Bhagavad-gita. “Eko devo devaki-putra eva": let there be one God for the whole world—Sri Krishna. “Eko mantras tasya namani”: and one hymn, one mantra, one prayer—the chanting of His name: Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare/ Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare. “Karmapy eka tasya devasya seva”: and let there be one work only—the service of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
