This is by far the BEST fishing channel on here. Very informative. Richard tells you exactly the depth to find crappie when he goes out. Woo...Woo..Woo
Someday when the border opens between Canada and the USA this Canadian would love to come down and have a day with you, Richard Gene. You are my type of fisherperson, love to fish and appreciate what you do.
I Just wanted to say I have learnt more about Crappie Fishing from You Mr. Richard Gene The Fishing Machine than from any other Fisherman. I can honestly say I've Became a better fisherman and the number of fish I've been able to catch has increased incredibly since I started Following your Channel, listening to your advice and using your magnificent techniques. Thanks to you I don't go fishing anymore I go Catching lol. WhoooOoooooO with that being said I just wanted to say Thank you for everything Sir an God Bless You and Mamma Sue..
I fish a 30 acre private lake here north of Dallas. 6 crappie Wednesday and 6 more Sunday. The smallest was 12", all the rest have been 16+". I've fished it for 50 years and I've never seen anything like that. Great video Gene. You're the best.
I love Richards videos. He reminds me so much of my Great Grandfather. Always calm, confident, and constantly catching fish. So much knowledge and experience.
Just posted a video with a shout out to Richard Gene! Watched your videos all last week and put it to work Friday for my first crappie! You’re the man sir!
I just got home off the lake catching crappie on brush piles and the bite got slow. Wish I had watched this before I hit the water and I would have given this a whirl. You're a legend Richard Gene!
Chuck Norris was putting his boat in the water the other day and he seen Richard Gene was on the lake so he loaded back up and went home. Lol. RGTFM is the greatest of all time.
I watched your videos, took what you showed that works and caught 20 crappie my first time trying for them! 1/32 Oz jig and 2in minnow. Thanks for what you do RGTFM!
I've learned so much from this channel, it gave me the confidence to start my own fishing channel. Richard Gene is the best! I'm talkin about WOOOOO!!!!
I used to fish for crappie a lot but I moved to the coast and now all I do is saltwater fish but i sure do miss crappie fishing. Nothing like the way they bite and fight. Sometimes it's a challenge to get them to bite but its fun to figure it out. Great video, sure brings back good memories.
Richard, I would like to Thank for these, "FREE" lesson, when I am on the lake here in Calif, when the bit stops, I use what you have taught me. Keep up the GREAT work......
Enjoy every video you do! Boy Richard got his Sunday going to Church cloths on. New shoes . I like them red converse fish head sneakers he wares . I got a pair just like um. Great fishing show. Blessed to watch him catch um.
Richard, have you thought about using a cheap medical hemostat to remove hooks from small crappie? I got some off ebay and they have been super useful for catching surf perch (which have small mouths) when my big normal pliers ae way overkill.
Mr. Gene, I caught my first flathead on a pole the other day thanks to watching your videos. Been fishing limb lines for 40 years but man what a rush catching one on a pole. Thanks. I was wondering what kind of recorder do you use when making your videos
I sure appreciate you explaining how you rig up to fish especially for crappie. I have always used minnows and a cane pole to fish for crappie in thick brush during spawning season and I usually always limit out on huge fish. Minnows are getting expensive to use so I'm thinking about going to using jigs hopefully they will work for me, the water that I fish is usually pretty muddy hope it will work out
Whoooooo!!! Much love from Pittsburgh!!! I just ordered my new KastKing baitcasting reel and rod!!! Go get em RGTFM God Bless you and your family brother!!! You are an amazing fisherman and FISHER OF MEN!!! Prayers Brother!!! Our Redemption Draws Nigh!!! Occupy and redeem the time, until then boom fish on!!! Creation is beautiful!!!
Going to the lake about the April, I can't wait. Thanks so much for the videos that you put out for us. We all Love Richard Gene ❤. Stay safe and GOD BLESS !!
I have been hunting Big Ohio River catfish all my life, but want to try new things, so this will be my first year trying for crappie, sauger, and walleye.
Mr Richard, I would absolutely love if you came over to Cullman county and did a video on Duck River Reservoir. Lots of good slabs being pulled out for a new water reservoir. I've caught a few this season, but others claim to be catching 30 or more per trip. I would love to know how they're doing it because I'm grocery fishing.
Sir, I caught 10+ crappies on 1 Bobby Garland baby shad monkey milk with a 1/32 jig yesterday, I was doing your “WOOOOOO! All afternoon 👍🤣 thank you for sharing your fishing knowledge 🙏
It should make you nervous. That's why it's so much fun to use. Think about a slab crappie or think about a bull bluegill. You have to play them like a 10lb bass on 10lb line. It's so much fun!
@@Kenneth_Fishing true, but I think 2lb is riskier for line breakage if there is any abrasion or nic in the line, especially after 50 fish without retying
While crappie fishing with minnows I caught a 12lb blue cat on 4 lb test line. It was a helluva long and stressful fight but after over 20 minutes I finally netted the sucker. Not even close to my pb but probably the best fight and most favorite catch ever for me
An interesting pattern I'm coming around to notice... I classify my lures in 2 very generic types: minnows and tubes. If one is catching mostly small crappie, the other will catch larger. And vice-versa. I don't know what to make of that; but so far, that's been an effective way for me to target larger crappie.

I’m talking about Wooooo!! Every time I watch a RGTFM video, I’m ready to hit the lake even if it’s 12:00pm
Same
Been catching crappie fish recently. Had no idea there were so many places near the house for crappie. Learned the techniques from you, thank you!
Good stuff right there
I fish a 30 acre private lake here north of Dallas. 6 crappie Wednesday and 6 more Sunday. The smallest was 12", all the rest have been 16+". I've fished it for 50 years and I've never seen anything like that.

Love this channel ! Thanks Richard Gene! I really got back into Crappie fishing thanks to you!
My dad caught a 2lb crappie yesterday on a 6 inch worm it was awesome
I love how you took the time to save the gill-hooked crappie. Most people would just yank it out and throw the fish back. You are a good man.
Thank you for all the wisdom sir and sharing it with us. God bless you and Momma Sue
RG is a great fella for sharing all this know how. I hope I can fish with him some day :)
Just posted a video with a shout out to Richard Gene! Watched your videos all last week and put it to work Friday for my first crappie! You’re the man sir!
Loctite = Lock tight, not loose sight.😂
Never change, Richard.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
You do realize that he knows but does it to get people to comment on it
Lucite... Loctite....
Loose tight yep like like jb not weld.
Always great when the machine uploads on your birthday. God bless
Richard, you make it look so damn easy .. You are the crappie king !! Yes sir.

I just got home off the lake catching crappie on brush piles and the bite got slow. Wish I had watched this before I hit the water and I would have given this a whirl. You're a legend Richard Gene!
Thanks for the tip on dental floss and super glue I fix all my jigs that way it makes me say wooooo!
Your videos are so clear that I feel like I'm in the boat beside you, Richard. I'm surprised the fish don't smell the glue though.
Chuck Norris was putting his boat in the water the other day and he seen Richard Gene was on the lake so he loaded back up and went home. Lol. RGTFM is the greatest of all time.
hehee, so true
I never get tired of Chuck Norris jokes. 🤣🤣🤣Always gives me a laugh.

Another good trip, thanks dude taking us along. Roll Tide Roll!

Great video Richard gene buddy love your content man
Glad you're ok. I was worried about you with the tornadoes and everything. 👊👊👊
3:48 I do the same for the same reason, but in addition with another bend midway on the shank so that the hook point is still parallel
Best explanation I have seen, thank you.
I use those little crappie jigs for Europe Perch over here in Germany, they work great
As usual phenomenal and thanks again remember keep pushing with 🙏🏾😷
I have been hunting Big Ohio River catfish all my life, but want to try new things, so this will be my first year trying for crappie, sauger, and walleye.

Thanks so much you are so much fun to watch my dude
A true fisherman, and very talented.
Another great video Richard 👍👍👍👍

Using 2 lbs test line would make me nervous. Richard is calm and confident.
Would it
It should make you nervous. That's why it's so much fun to use.
Think about a slab crappie or think about a bull bluegill.
You have to play them like a 10lb bass on 10lb line. It's so much fun!
As long as you set your drag correctly there is nothing to worry about lmaoo
@@Kenneth_Fishing true, but I think 2lb is riskier for line breakage if there is any abrasion or nic in the line, especially after 50 fish without retying
While crappie fishing with minnows I caught a 12lb blue cat on 4 lb test line. It was a helluva long and stressful fight but after over 20 minutes I finally netted the sucker. Not even close to my pb but probably the best fight and most favorite catch ever for me
I'm gonna try these techniques Thank you I enjoy watching
Great information, deserves a WOOOOOOO
Appreciate you a lot. Hope you have a goodn
God bless Richard just another well done, instructive and informative video as always 👍🙏🇺🇸
Rough day today, got home and Woooo!! The machine has a new video! Just what I needed, now I want to get out on the water.
Hey Richard do you remember the two people who came up to you at the dam that was me and my dad thank you for the pictures
Very good job I enjoyed watching you.
The fishing machine is definitely the Chuck Norris of fishing!!!
Awesome videos I love watching them never stop... also that super glue is called lock-tight 😂
Where do you find those micro jigs here in ky I haven't found any yet been look for awhile
An interesting pattern I'm coming around to notice... I classify my lures in 2 very generic types: minnows and tubes. If one is catching mostly small crappie, the other will catch larger. And vice-versa. I don't know what to make of that; but so far, that's been an effective way for me to target larger crappie.
Woooooo! Another RGTFM woooooo!
Thanks Richard nice fishing
NOOOOO I WAS ASLEEP WHEN HE POSTED
Great video, looking for that little perch color fish ,you put on toward end of video, thanks. Dan
