I enjoy this site so much I don't even go nowhere else I can come here and learn more in 15 minutes and if I was on another one for a week plus I really believe Richard has one banana missing make it really fun
Just got a fishing boat for my areas here in PA. We have some massive slabs in our lakes. I am using so many of these techniques this spring. I can't wait. Thanks to you Mr. Gene I will do better than ever. I have learned so much from you brother in Christ. Thank you. You are loved and appreciated.
Hello Richard- my name is Clifton R. Goins from Corbin, Kentucky. I just wanted to say that I enjoy watching your channel- I was brought up in the world of fishing and spending quality time with my Dad and Uncles on the Cumberland River catfishing mostly but catching whatever we could to clean and eat. Family fishing and camping trips were always filled with stories and discussing better ways to catch fish. I agree with you- fishing is a sport- second to none- no doubt. I recently purchased a new light rod and reel and some 6 lb test high vis line for it. I have the fever to fish and am really anxious to get out on the water and get after them. I enjoyed learning about ways to catch crappie with jigs with red worms as a trailer. Also- catching and using shad to fish deeper for them big bass. Have you ever thought of using an underwater go pro camera for when you are fishing the small creeks in your kayak or wading to get you audience a better understanding of what you are seeing? The glare from sunlight blocks the view when you see big bluegill. Sincerely- Cliff Goins, Corbin, Ky.
Hello Richard, I came here a few days late to say that we need a "go fishing when ya can, cause it good for ya!" Tshirt Hoodie and decals! Thank you Richard for all these great years. You're an amazing man and you've taught me such. And buddy I got a good woman and you've helped me be good to her. Give mama sue a big hug for me!
Most humble crappie fisherman TH-camr out there. Never seen him use anything fancy all the time, never complicates fishing. Doesn't always promote any sponsors or bias, just simple facts on how to catch fish.
Y'all be watchin' out fer them critters in them thar' woods now, Richard Gene. Don't let 'em git'cha! 🙂🙂🙂!!! Love your sense of humor. Yer one of a kind, thar', big fella! Those were definitely some good-sized Crappie y'all was pullin' outta the Lake. Some of the biggest Crappie I've seen anybody catch so far this year. Keep them thar' lines tight, and may God bless you and Mama Sue!
Gene you always make me smile. I really enjoy your crappie videos. You've convinced me to use jigs now. I've always been a minnow man but I have learned enough to know where, when and how to get these slabber-dawgs in the cooler now. Thank you and keep up the good work.
This is by far the best and most informative fishing channel I've ever watched definitely glad I came across Mr Gene it's also pretty cool to see you fishing some of the same spots I've fished of course you catch way more than we do
youve had such consistent viewership, all your videos seem to have 10s of thousands of views at the very least. i'm surprised you don't have sponsorship deals! you're more popular on youtube than Roland Martin
great video richard your ability to explain things are second to none as you are as a fisherman but you still crazy and funny thanks richard god bless you and the family stay safe
Thank you, Gene, fir you efforts and teaching. I've fished all my life in rivers, creeks, and small ponds. Never been crappie fishing. I just retired, gotta little John boat and headed to the WMA lakes(3) around me! I'm going a fishin cause it's good fir me!
Hay Richard, just got a new rod and reel the rod is a 6'7 ml and the reel is a 100 series. It will only hold 90 yards of .09 diameter line. Been fishing for years. What kind of line setup would you run? It will be mainly be used for bobber and jig casting.
Been using that technique (but I used a weighted bobber) for 30 plus years on early spring crappie. When they come up shallow and hold around stumps and lay-downs, this method is a sure fire winner. I fish mostly on R.L. Harris, Neeley-Henry, and Logan Martain.
Where on Logan Martin? I fish a lot at night. My spot is the mouth of chocolocca creek, and on the main river channel in the heat of the summer near stemley bridge.
@@brandonterrell5271 Brandon, I usually fish shallow waters above the Riverside area (around Lock 4) with lots of submerged or partly submerged stumps and lay downs. Once they raise the river to Summer pool, this technique doesn't work quite as well.
A bobber and jig is my favorite way to fish for crappies. Especially if there is a little chop on the water. That chop gives the jig more action. Thank You for another great video Gene.
Yet another wonderful fishing trip. Perfect timing ,creeks,ponds,rivers and lakes everywhere are filling up quick. Thank you so much for taking us along. We hope mama sue enjoyed them fresh slabs. Glod bless to you and yours Richard and thanks for the advice.
Always love watching some RGTFM!

You're the KING. I've never watched a video and NOT LEARNED SOMETHING.
Y'all be watchin' out fer them critters in them thar' woods now, Richard Gene. Don't let 'em git'cha! 🙂🙂🙂!!!

Those were definitely some good-sized Crappie y'all was pullin' outta the Lake. Some of the biggest Crappie I've seen anybody catch so far this year. Keep them thar' lines tight, and may God bless you and Mama Sue!
I wish he'd make a shirt that just said, "Quit" on it. 😂 Me and my girlfriend watch him together and always enjoy when he tells the fish to quit.
Gene you always make me smile. I really enjoy your crappie videos. You've convinced me to use jigs now. I've always been a minnow man but I have learned enough to know where, when and how to get these slabber-dawgs in the cooler now. Thank you and keep up the good work.
Always love seeing ya catch some slab daddies!!!
Whoo!

This is by far the best and most informative fishing channel I've ever watched definitely glad I came across Mr Gene it's also pretty cool to see you fishing some of the same spots I've fished of course you catch way more than we do

He catches a big croppy almost every show . Like 👍
Right on! RGTFM!!! Wooo
They say, "What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger", but in the story of hitting the tree, it's what doesn't kill you, makes you wiser.
Pink, purple and chartreuse combination made by Kalen’s bait company is excellent in early spring. Wooooo.
Best fisherman on the plane!!! I love to see you fishing all over the place , instead of just dropping down to one fish in one place!!! LOVE IT ! ! !
great video richard your ability to explain things are second to none as you are as a fisherman but you still crazy and funny thanks richard god bless you and the family stay safe
Thank you, Gene, fir you efforts and teaching. I've fished all my life in rivers, creeks, and small ponds. Never been crappie fishing. I just retired, gotta little John boat and headed to the WMA lakes(3) around me! I'm going a fishin cause it's good fir me!
Congrats on your retirement. I retired last year and one thing I can tell you is you'll be doing more fishing. Have fun!
Draper lakes?
Mr. Gene a quick question: when is the best time to catch skip jacks behind Guntersville-Dam? Thank you.
Always enjoy watching your videos, very informative and entertaining!
catching Crappie with a jig and bobber great one. 😀👍🐟🎣
Great technique! Trout magnets are another thing that will catch crappie this time of year.
Hay Richard, just got a new rod and reel the rod is a 6'7 ml and the reel is a 100 series. It will only hold 90 yards of .09 diameter line. Been fishing for years. What kind of line setup would you run? It will be mainly be used for bobber and jig casting.
What about using a smaller Thill pencil bobber?
Great video as always. I love to crappie fish with a jig and bobber. Thanks for sharing about taking time to find how deep the fish are.
