Same. Been here since way back I think he should be 3 million but if I'm not mistaken he's got more than bill dance and I believe he deserves that. Richard is by far the Greatest fisherman ever. You know I heard that he can pour out a bottled water and get 2 crappie and a flathead out of the puddle. The man is a machine wooooo 😅
@@jonboatmorava9115 Honestly I think the only reason he’s not over a million subscribers is because he doesn’t do social media… But I kinda like it that way. You attract a lot of unwanted attention that way. I live about an hour and a half from Geraldine Alabama where he lives and I went riding and looked at Guntersville lake. It looks freaking awesome! I live like 20 minutes from Chickamauga lake which is like one of the best lakes in the United States right now. So I’ve never fished Guntersville but it’s definitely on my to do list… lol That’s the place to be for monster flatheads though.
Very knowledgeable angler and undoubtedly a fishing machine. From knots too tie to baits and hacks Ive learned it all hear I'm in the south Georgia area Richard gene we should meet up and lower some water levels!
Am I the only one who dreads the fact that these videos don’t go on for hours? I could watch this man fish all day long. Two years ago I didn’t even know how to put line on a reel and rod. Today I went creek fishing for a few hours and caught 7 or 8 bass. I’ve never had anyone else in my life teach me how to fish. Everything I’ve learned about fishing has come from this man. God bless Richard Gene.
My late friend and fishing buddy, Billy, introduced me to the green pumpkin green lizard when we fished the local rivers here in eastern NC. He was a well seasoned bass fisherman in this area. We caught many a bass in all seasons with it. We used mail weights in the head I sent him off with one in his shirt pocket.‘I still use them in our favorite fishing spots. Thanks Billy.
There’s nothing better than watching Richard fish in when it’s winter outside. You feel like you’re in north AL in the water with him. Thanks Richard you are the best.
I love it! It just isn't Richard's channel without "this is how I modify this lure to catch more fish." Listen.. watch.. learn.. catchin' more fish is in the details!

Your fishing gear is fantastic. I loved your fishing, congratulations you are an excellent fisherman!👍🎣🥰 Hugs and happy fishing!
Here from Canada, remember my dad catching a monster small mouth, 6lbs or so using a rattlesnake lizard probably 20 years ago, keep up the GREAT work Richard!!!!!
Richard I'm right there with you. Used the lizard in the 70s while wading and still catch them today wading. I actually started using rubber baits from my creepy crawler set.
Every video I see Richard post, he just proves you don't have to make it complicated to catch fish. Time and time again. Happy to see all the subscribers you have and the audience you've generated. Much love and God bless!
As usual Richard, I feel so blessed that someone of your caliber is sharing all these insights and tactics in best ways to catch fish with us regular folk, week to week. I'm truly able to enjoy a "sport like none other" from what I've learned from you. Thanks again!
We call those rod types Tennessee handles they allow you to place the reel perfectly to balance the outfit I hope they regain popularity I own a 11' Fenwick that I use for great lakes stealhead it is my favourite rod have a blessed weekend y'all go fish' n
Richard, I love your channel I can’t stop watching one video after the other. I know your channel focuses around fishing but if possible, could you make a video of you filleting a fish you catch?
You make everything look easy I’ve learned so much watching your channel u are the man when it comes to fishing and teaching how to fish love everything u do and do for your viewers God Bless you and your family I wish you all the very best because you deserve it thanks buddy
"I've lowered water levels with this bait." That's Richard. I believe him utterly. No, not udderly. 🙄 That creek sort of reminded me of Bull Run Creek in Knox County, Tennessee. We used to have a ton of fun fishing that creek. I caught one of the biggest channel cats I ever caught in that creek. I dunno how much it weighed but I'm sure it was over 10 and fat as a barrel. I bet few kids fish it now. It had everything. Bringing back those memories is always a good thing, Richard. I sure thank you for it. It's good fer ye.
I started bass fishing in the early 80s and I've caught more bass with this set up than all other baits....combined! Now, I've never cut the front legs and head of my lizard off, but I'm sure gonna try it now!
Creek fishing is the best, to me, I've caught many 4 or 5 lbs spots and several 5 to 8 lbs largemouths out of small creeks here in south MS. My favorite bait is the ultra vibe speed craw in green pumpkin with the tips dipped in spike it chartreuse. Awesome video Richard
Richard I’ve been watching you for 5 years and you never fail to entertain or teach me something new! God bless you and your family,hope you had a good Labor Day weekend
Richard, they were called Tennessee Handles, made famous by Billy Westmoreland. I still have an early Lew’s with a graphite Tennessee handle. Instead of wire I used fiberglass packing tape as a base that didn’t stretch and then a layer of thick electrician tape from one end of the handle to the other. I preferred the matte finish on the tape rather than the shiny. I still have the rod and take it out just for the found memories. Bass Pro at one time sold a Billy Westmoreland Boron Rod with a Tennessee handle. I still have that rod also. Lots of memories of fish caught. We fished at night with Moonglow lights, then UV black lights came out by Stan Slone. Great memories!
Awesome video. Now I know how to peg a slip sinker with a rubber band and fishing line. Love ZOOM Lizards, I caught some nice bass on the 4 inch cotton candy.
Love the video. I always liked light tackle creek fishing. If you don’t mind a suggestion, when you show how to tie knots and rig your tackle, it’s very difficult to see when you use clear monofilament line against a your white shirt. Try using chartreuse line instead. Much easier to see. Just a thought.
Started watching in late 2016 when we lived in north Iowa.. Have learned a lot! We've moved back to the Ozarks.. I hope you will come fishing here some day.. God bless momma Sue! She raised Richard well..lol
Terrific video Richard. Thanks so much, brother, for takin us along with you. Great job of creek fishin. Thank you, Richard, for all the tips, hints, and tricks you give us to help us be better fishermen and women. I hope you know how much you are appreciated. God bless you and your family. And stay safe out there on your travels.
I very much appreciate & enjoyed your content. Despite their accepted popularity, I am not much of a " modification" guy. Watching u tonite quite possibly was the key motivation to take a step in that direction. tyvm!!👏👏👏🍻
I'm so crippled up my fishing days are over but I still get a little fun out of watching fellows like you out there catching fish. Last year I was able to go a couple of times to a pond near my house with my next door neighbor. He caught a 17 pound catfish out of that little pond. Unfortunately the man that owned it has passed away and we no longer have access. Keep on fishing till you get reeled in to the big lake upstairs.
Richard, your folks who handle your shirts need to get some hats going brother… I been trying to get a ballcap for my boy for two months now. Been sold out. We watch all your videos together and then head for the creeks and rivers around us. You have helped us catch more fish for certain! Thanks you for all you’re doing! Woooooo!
Hey my son got in touch with the company that does Richard's shirts and caps.They said they will let him know when they have them ready.Thank you for drawing our attention on this.
Man I have learned more little tricks about fishing watching you thank u so much for doing all different kinds of fish because I like to catch all types of fish and you cover a lot of different kinds of fish
Grew up fishin the creek south of the house n every pond in the pastures i could find with lizards, n'v caught a pile o bass with m also. Never modified m like you do n don't bass fish n e more cause i don't eat m, but if i ever get board n just wanna have a blast fishin I'll definitely give er a try RG. Thanks for all the great tips, tricks, & opinions Sir. God bless you, Momma Sue, n all your young'n's too. Love ya my Brother in Christ!!!
Thanks for reminding us about the lizards.i still have some of those in my tackle. I used to hammer the bass in farm ponds with them. I am going to try them in the river where I fish.
One of my favorite plastics of all time is a zoom lizzard in this color or most of all blue flash that you can't seem to find anymore and rigged almost the same way. I can pick 4 soft plastics of old that i'd be content with. These, brush hogs, flippin' tubes in green pumpkin or pumpkin usually and a pearl white fluke. I also remember my daddy doing awful good on a purple or black worm with red bead spinners on them. Gotta love the classic lures.
Fantastic video. I always enjoy watching you, but this one is the best I have seen yet. I had to share you on pinterest my man. I have never seen spotted bass the size you caught here, but then being up north in Ohio, all of our bass are stunted in comparison to the south. Keep up the God work and may God keep blessing you .
I like that mod. Looks a lot like the newer craw "things" but it has that ribbon tail still there. I kinda think that is the key to your mod. I have always felt the ribbon tail worms had just a little bit more action. Thanks for taking us to the creek with you today. Bet I try this next time I go.
Mr. Richard a real great fishermen always catching fish love you videos been a subscriber ever since 2017 and i am always watching your videos God bless you and go fishing because its good for you and that's the truth
Awesome video. Thanks again for the great content. I love creek fishing but your right the spots that should be holding fish don't always. I lost a pretty big one today I'm having problems setting those Ned rig hooks or ill have them shake it.
I’ve gotten to where I don’t hardly fish with anything but my ultralight and 6# braid in these north Georgia creeks anymore. I do hook into a spotted bass that makes me question my decision every now and then lol but it works out.
RICHARD GENE THE FISHING MACHINE‼️ 🗣 WOOOOO❗️❕
I can’t believe you’re at 330k subscribers I’ve been with you since about 30k and loved every minute of it…💪🏼 You’re the man Richard!

Thanks Richard you are the best.
What amazes me is how you already know what's on your line before you even get to see it!!! Your talent and technique is superb!
It's 2nd to nun woooooo!
How long is the flora carbon line do you have when you're fishing in creeks?
First soft plastic I ever used was a zoom lizard in junebug. Started my bass fishing obsession 😂
👍😎
i have caught a lot of bass on a lizard rigged like that for 30 years,but i still learn a bunch from you -thanks for the content
You are so right Richard. Never leave fish to find fish!! Some beautiful spots Richard!! LIVE FOR THE THUMP MY FRIEND!!
Gene,you have the best fishin show bar none,bless you.

Richard I've never thrown a lizard but I will now! Thank you.
Richard I'm right there with you. Used the lizard in the 70s while wading and still catch them today wading. I actually started using rubber baits from my creepy crawler set.
One of my favorite videos to date. I’ve always cut the head off my lizards but never the front two legs. Can’t wait to try!
Richard Gene & Rocky Drake are the only fishing channels I refuse to miss a video from. Simply the best.
Awesome time on the creek. Great instruction. I love those lizards!
I love these videos so much, it makes me feel like I'm fishing with my grandpa again.Thank you for that

Richard, you are a fishin magician when it comes to fishin..amazing
I would love to fish a creek with a legend like you. That’s what I grew up fishing
The best content on TH-cam. “Second to none, in my opinion “
Man what I wouldn't do to hang out with Richard for one day of fishing! Thanks again for the fantastic video and tips.
You are the fishing guru! Love your videos
Richard your knowledge of fishing blows my mine. Definitely gonna pick me up some lizards. Thank you for sharing.
I swear he gives the best advice 😮 I have learned so much from him
I'm pretty sure Mr. Richard is the GOAT fisherman.
Thanks for sharing your experience and your thoughts on fishing. I watch almost all of your videos.
I can’t believe that momma sue wasn’t there to see you slip in the creek…🤣…another great video from the fishing machine
I just pray the water he tasted was as good as what I tasted.
Like the sport of fishing, your videos are second to none! 🎣 best on youtube
Man I have learned more little tricks about fishing watching you thank u so much for doing all different kinds of fish because I like to catch all types of fish and you cover a lot of different kinds of fish
That hack with the rubber band is awesome! Woooooooo!
That weight stop can be replaced with a tiny split shot and a knot below it. I use them as a bobber stop above the jig as well on my crappie rig.
Grew up fishin the creek south of the house n every pond in the pastures i could find with lizards, n'v caught a pile o bass with m also. Never modified m like you do n don't bass fish n e more cause i don't eat m, but if i ever get board n just wanna have a blast fishin I'll definitely give er a try RG.

i finally found those sunglasses and i love them. glad i got two pair. thank you richard.
That was a blast brother thank you
I am fixing to go fishing too!
I’ve got a ton of plastic lizards that ain’t being used. Guess I’ll try this and finally use the stuff I’ve had stored for who knows how long
Thanks for reminding us about the lizards.i still have some of those in my tackle. I used to hammer the bass in farm ponds with them. I am going to try them in the river where I fish.
Another great video, Richard.
Awesome day on the creek! I bet momma sue give you hell on that stumble😂
Been watching you for so long now. Love your videos an the way you explain things. My uncle used to fish lizards to
I still use them to this day on lakes and they still are fire
Dang Richard.....that's a video that can turn anybody into a champion! I work at Bass Pro...I turn everybody on to your channel
One of my favorite plastics of all time is a zoom lizzard in this color or most of all blue flash that you can't seem to find anymore and rigged almost the same way.

Been with u since 55k love you buddy
Very very informative. Thank you Richard. Great video.
You are the man, Richard Gene. 🎣👍🏻😎
Thanks for the tips richard you the man
Awesome video. Thanks again for the great content. I love creek fishing but your right the spots that should be holding fish don't always. I lost a pretty big one today I'm having problems setting those Ned rig hooks or ill have them shake it.
I caught a pickerel last week using the helgamite that you showed on the channel a few weeks ago. I used the exact technique that you showed.
I’ve gotten to where I don’t hardly fish with anything but my ultralight and 6# braid in these north Georgia creeks anymore. I do hook into a spotted bass that makes me question my decision every now and then lol but it works out.
