My favorite part of this channel is how wholesome it is. I love that Richard Gene is so enthusiastic about going out and fishing and showing his expertise
i love it when he says, "lets put em in the bucket"
Ha, me too.
I was starting to think nobody on youtube ate fish.
WEW! DOGGONIT!! WEEEEW!
I vote for that baby he is truly a hilarious and very honest HUMBLE DISCIPLE OF THE BLESSING GOD HAS GIVEN US..I PRAY HE KEEPS PUTTING THEM IN THE BUCKET...GO VOLUNTEERS...OLIVER SPRINGS...
I love it he tells them "quit"
Thanks for the video, I'm stuck in the house from a shoulder surgery and just watching you almost makes me feel like I'm there with you. i really enjoy you video's.
Me too I just had shoulder surgery and I am actually fishing right now and watching this video I love RGTFM
Beyond my thought process how anyone could give you a thumbs down????? You are “in my opinion “ a warehouse of knowledge and you are gooood fer all of us who enjoy fishing. You are truly a great example to follow and a very very good ambassador to the fishing community. Thank you Richard for sharing your knowledge.
You have, by FAR, the best fishing channel on TH-cam Mr. Gene!! I absolutely love your in depth videos mainly because I can see the passion you have for what you do AND I am a fellow Alabamaian!!! My wife and I just bought a home on 25 acres that has a 3 acre pond on it last February. The dam had blown out before we bought it so I repaired it and am currently working on restocking it with bluegill, shellcracker, and black crappie. Keep fishin buddy!!!
"That thing there's ugly as Elmo. Im goin after em. Wooo!" I think I peed my pants a lil. Priceless!! Your awesome Richard. Keep up the good work.
I love that your videos are so instructive. Most of the videos I see, are just watching someone catching fish, without teaching how.
When you let those big guys go I almost cry. I swear I can smell fried crappie.
Thanks from this Mississippi boy.
"Let's put him in the bucket" is all I wanna say when I'm on the river this weekend 🎣🐟😂
I saw some thumbs down and I thought, I wonder if these people have ever been blue gill fishing? I really doubt it. It took me all the way back to12 years old on lake Tenkiller in Oklahoma! I’ve caught blue gill every year since then, but that’s where and when I got hooked! Thanks for taking me back there!🤪🤪 it was good for me!
Some of the best fishing there is an eating
My mom always wanted them gilled and gutted and scaled. No filets for her. She is 93 now and still loves my fish.
Jumped off the cliffs there once or twice awesome lake
The first fish I caught at 5
@@babyt535 ...Yep blue gill are allways first, then the cat fish!
I was fishing the other day and ran into a couple who were also fishing. They were using live bait so I asked them if they ever heard of Richard Gene and they lit up. We’ve seen every video they said. Love you brother.
Couldn't agree with you more on the way that bluegills fight. I was trolling for walleyes one time with planer boards and hooked into a 12 inch bluegill. It took the planer board right under the water. Only time I ever had that happen with any type of fish.
Makes me and my son miss the south...we’re in Alaska catching salmon and trout...but your right those bluegills are good eaten...love watching you 🦌🎣🦌🎣
"hey stop it! Oooh spilt my coffee." :) That's the best
Hey gene Im Amos mann originally from Riviera Beach Fl. And now live in Peoria Illinois. I love your show. Thank you for helping me catch fish in this northern climate. It's very different from back home. I've learned a lot from watching your show. May god continue to bless you and your family, because you have been a blessing to mine.
I think the reason I like your videos so much is partly because you are genuinely in love with this sport and because you don’t get into any politics or any other polarizing topics.
Love you man!
You have gotten me into panfish fishing and I'll tell you what it's super enjoyable when you want a guarantee bite. I usually fish for largemouth but sometimes the bite gets tough so I switch it to my micro fishing setup and it is so fun!
I came to this video to learn how to catch bluegill, and I'm just so pleased to see you using a vintage reel. I love vintage reels so, so much, and I'm rebuilding a small Ocean City 1600 baitcaster at this moment, though I am a bigger fan of the larger Penn reels. So cool to see people using old gear
Very cool, this day reminds me of my youth in KY. We couldn't get worms all the time as kids but we found that taking a plastic worm for bass fishing and a razor blade and we had quite a few bluegill/crappie/a carp once in a while. Two pound line and a Mitchel 309 with a Wonder Rod was my rig with a small weight we cut from the lead of a toothpaste tube and a size 10 or 12 hook. Thanks for the video!
Sunfish are the only fish I've ever caught (I'm lame, I know) and your video made me envy a good fishing day.
I love in Dallas and the closest lake to me is White Rock Lake. I spent 6 hours out there yesterday and only caught 2 palm-sized bluegill.
I love your character too! Makes me miss my neighbor when I was a kid.
I could've written this exact comment yesterday. New and only gotten a couple sunfish over at Samuel Farms. Did you find any good spots around Dallas?
Those right there are nothing but great table fare. Thanks Richard for taking us along!
This is the very first RGTFM video I saw one year ago and I've been hooked ever since, pardon the pun! This is hands down the best most down to earth fishing show I've ever seen. Internet or TV! I have no idea how this man isn't more well known than he is in the fishing community! Either way keep it up Richard Gene, I get excited every time I get a notification!
This is my favorite Richard Gene video. I am a bluegill fisherman. They are the most underrated fish around. They put up a good fight and taste good!
Bream and smallmouth on UL up to medium gear is the most exciting and underrated fishing there is. I hope I never get so grown that I lose the thrill a big bluegill brings me. I'm 57 so I don't think I will ever find bluegill fishing not get the blood flowing and bring a smile to me. Good fishing everyone!🎣
I do love catching me some big bluegill! You are right about how hard they fight! The only fish I've ever caught that compares is a saltwater sheepshead; they're basically the same shape, so they fight the same. Those will make your arms sore when they're biting!
way to go rg sure seems you always can catch em!! thanks for the tips and tricks i use your tactics and it helps me catch more fish thank you again.
Bluegill have always been my favorite fish to catch. My gear has changed from when I was little but the excitement hasn't. You always have great content, Richard Gene.
Just reconditioned the 2 Mitchell 300 reels I've had for 50 years and am looking forward to using them again!
Excellent video. Kind of guy I would like to fish with. A lot of people look down on bluegill fishing but when I take the grandkids it is nonstop action.
You had my 4 yr old giggling when you would act silly. We enjoy watching you together 👍. Good stuff
When I go fishing I always feel like I'm out here to talk to God, You're right fishing is good for you!!!
Yes I know
I feel the exact same thing when I go fishing and always enjoy Gods beauty that am surrounded by!
Just got back in and now uploading some great videos all weekend, I Pray May God Bless You
@@ji2898 I just subscribed to your TH-cam channel will you please do the same for me.
Indeed I do most of my praying while I fish
"Please God, just one"
I grew up in southern Michigan fishing for bluegill and pumpkinseeds. I now live in Colorado and trout are the main fish that we catch. I have caught a few decent sized gills here but I miss my childhood stomping grounds. Gills were common there. Now I have to drive about 30 to 40 miles to have a chance at decent sized panfish. Oh the good old days!
My father in law gave me 3 of those reels. His tackle is 40 years plus and I'm still catching fish everyday. Fishing is amazing.
I have a 308 that I bought in 1975. Still use it and it's one of my favorite reels.
Ron Scott you old old
As an avid outddoorsman myself, I can relate to the excitement you portray in your videos. Watching you makes me want to go fishing, and it's almost like I know you. I live just east of Lake Barkley and Kentucky Lake in Tennessee, so the fishing opportunities are always present here, not to mention all of the creeks and rivers I fish as well. My wife is from Gadsden Alabama, and she always tells me we should go to Weiss Lake some time. Hey....maybe we will meet sometime in the future, you never can tell when you cross another outdoorsman's path. Love your videos my friend.
I really enjoy Richard Gene, the fishing machine! I watch these videos over and over to get some good information about fishing! “And remember, Go fishing when you can because it’s good for you!!!”
It's hard to believe I'm watching this episode again 3yr later from the first time I saw it and I'm still just as much excited
Mr Gene I just got back from my local pond and HAD A BLAST THIS MORNING! I was catchin bluegill and putting them on a float and catchin bass after bass. Caught over 10 two pound + largemouth in this old sewage water pond next to a sewage plant. Also threw a rattle trap and caught a couple on it. I used your small rubber band on an EWG hook for weedless live bluegill cause that pond was full of hydrilla. Thank you to you and Elmo for teaching me a few tips and tricks!
I haven't watched your video yet, but you better believe I will in about 10 seconds after I hit send on this haha.
Greatest fishing videos come from the MACHINE.
Keep up the good work Richard!
I never fished for bluegill before until today. I caught 4 of them today with your tips, you’re awesome
I'm glad I found this channel. Goodness knows we all have enough going on in life and these videos and just getting out on the water is very therapeutic. I have seen it lessen the pain of a cancer patient, make colds go away, ease headaches, and lower stress.
thnx man ur bery helpful never stop fishing man its calm and relaxing and just dang right fun
That's exactly how I ended up doing it at Greers Ferry.
Tried a ton of other ways. This is the way that works best 75% of the time for me.
I live in albertville, and you have shown me some really good spots to catch fish. I love your channel. I'm 34 years old and every one of your videos teach me something new about fishing. Keep up the good work.. you are awesome..
I just love this channel!!! Him and momma Sue are, in my opinion, the best type of folks in the world. Keepin' it REAL! I love the way that they show people how they can fish and have some fun without having to spend tens of thousands of dollars on a boat and tackle. Love the bank fishin' videos the best. Keep doin' it y'all and God Bless you and yours, my brother.
Best fishing videos!!! Best fisherman, great advices, funny as hell 😄😂🤣.
Fishing is life 🎣.
Thanks for showing us your red worm bluegill fishing adventure, Richard. Every description you mentioned about those wonderful panfish was spot on. Love them here in central Missouri too! Best wishes, Don
47 years old and still learned some new tips Thanks!!!
I live in Kansas, and we have some excellent fishing up here, but I love your videos so that I can hear you talk. See I grew up in North Alabama, and listening to you brings back so many beautiful memories. I lived near Smith Lake and fished every chance I got. Thank you for what you do.
Love your simple technique in this video. I have caught a few thousand bluegills in my life, but I must say you are a great fisherman. Keep the videos coming. Be safe out on the water!
Was looking up videos when you're upload popped up. Good catching like always
Love these bank fishing videos man. Nothing fancy , just fishing. Love it. Thank you!
Gene keep on keeping on. I watched this video probably 4 times already but I love it. I love fishing with all my heart 😁
I'm a huge fan. I love your videos and I would love to spend a day catfishing with you
Same
I appreciate you sir, I really enjoy your videos and even though I havent caught a fish yet I love watching your videos.
Man I just started fishing a few days ago haven’t caught none yet 😂😂
i like how he just has a great attitude and is very clear with how to do something
Mr. Richard your Channel has somehow brought my youth back to me... I live in Central Florida where panfishing is usually decent year-round and as a bass fisherman I haven't fished for panfish in quite some years... I would like to personally thank you for all that you do on your Channel... I wish I had somebody like you to take me fishing when I was little... you have a really good Fourth of July and tell Elmo that I said hey
I gotta say I'd really enjoy fishing with you, sir. Thank you for making some enjoyable and educational videos. Fish on!
That is some good eating right there! enjoy the videos Richard! one of my favorite channels. :-)
Thank you Richard! First but definitely not my last time to watch you have fun and teach me at the same time! Bill Love, Taylorville, Il
We use a lot of crickets to fish for bluegill and we catch so many using those compared to anything else. Best fishing! Most fun I ever have when fishing.
Thank you for all you do! Your videos are awesome.
Richard, have you tried using a slip bobber for gills? It works great for drifting a bait along in the current.
Thanks!
@@johnwilliamson2276 i appreciate your support
Mr Richard thanks for the great videos.
I truly believe you have re sparked my love for fishing. i’m usually fishing after Bass
but this last weekend I went bluegill fishing
and had a absolute blast and you know what I think it was good for me.
@ Pickem...same here!
Glad to see you get after some gills. Other than perch when they’re spawning that’s all I fish for year around. Nothing better than setting the hook on a 9” bluegill. And like you said pound for pound the hardest fighting fish.
Used your tactics and teachings to have a great day on the water today. Thank you for your passion and your information. I am deeply grateful for it.
I would like to see you do a catch and cook on blue gill, just curious on how the master cooks his fish.
I can tell a good way to fry them bluegill filets up. It’s a two step process first the dry coat then wet coat and right in the oil. My wife has this huge plastic salad bowl with a lid put 3 cups drakes mix salt and pepper to what you like drop your filets in dry mix put lid on bowl and shake for a few minutes filets should be coated completely. Now the wet mix take a large bowl pour in two of your beers mix in
Mix in 1/4 cup drakes mix pull the filets out one at a time from the dry mix dip in wet mix and fry til golden brown .salt to taste make sure t
You have a cold one to wash the down with. It’s easy and taste great enjoy
I like Louisiana brand fish fry, original or Cajun spice.

Man, that is a beautiful area... thanks for sharing these good memories.
Richard Gene, you take me back to when I was a kid fishing with my old man. The only fishing pole he ever used was an Orchard Action Glass rod with a Mitchell 300 reel. My old father-in-law was an avid fisherman and king of the yard sales. I think every rod and reel he owned was purchased at a yard sale for under $10. Love the videos. Keep ‘em coming.
Love your attitude and mindset...fishing has been a life saver and definitely a form of zen time for me...nothing else exist when you're out on the water, it's a type of mental cleanse for sure. Anyway, keep it up, so glad i came across your channel. OHHH one more thing, awesome shirt where can I get one?
Your awesome Richard. I been watching you since 2018. Good fishing 🎣 buddy.
Another awesome video by the slab slayer himself!!
Just wanted to say im new to your channel and im very impressed......your so humble and free and most of all you enjoy what you do thats the most important thing.....and i feel like you dont just do it for you but to better others day......i really respect you man
Nobody has an intro or fishing skills like Richard, it's always reminding me of why I subscribed.
I found this channel recently and I've seen a few vids and I think this guy is the best and most entertaining out of all the other fishing channels I've seen! I subbed and good luck to you Mr Gene!!
We've been growing Georgia hopper red worms in our family for 70 years. Feed them chicken feed (crumbles). Gives the worms plenty of nutrients to expand and the fish love the flavor.
Outstanding videos. Love fishing. Good job.
Looks like loads of fun. I personally use this bait from Walmart called a “Beatle spin” it cost bout 82 cents and catches loads of panfish and crappie.
love your channel buddy i cant go fishing all the time but watching you fish takes me back to fishing with my dad when i was 16.
Love those buegills. Haven't fished for bluegills on a river in a long time. Thanks for sharing. Loved what you did. Haven't seen a Mitchell Garcia reel in years. I use to have a friend, Fred Shearer, that had the 408 and he loved it. I had 3 of the 300 models.
Love Your Energy! I’m 23 started fishing 🎣 & man you are fun to watch and also good to learn some new tricks
Richard I’ve been following you for years. There is absolutely no TH-cam channel as entertaining and knowledgeable as yours sir. Thanks for making the videos brother🤘
Love it. I'm on my way to catch some Gillies myself.
I love the sneakers Richard and great job at fishing those brim! Pumpkin seed are the prettiest brim!
Richard , it is such a pleasure to watch you fishin ! God Bless you and your family ! Take Care and Be Safe !
Love the vintage reel as a touch & appreciate the conversation, like i was hangin' out with you. Great video, ty
Them there some nice fish!
Congratulations on the good fishing Richard!!
I love the way he chase off those birds and how Excited he gets when he gets a good bite.
Thanks for educating fisherman and promoting the sport. I always enjoy your videos.
You are actually a great teacher, as well as fisherman.
Best bluegill video ever!! Definitely got a new subscriber
My favorite light tackle set up for gills and crappie is the Okuma Kokanee spinning rod w/Okuma Avenger reel. I know the rod is meant for another fishing style, but the action is perfect for how I fish, and it was hard to find the action I was looking for, and it is it. Great action for finessing big gills on beds, with just a hook and a redworms or wax worm, or similar. Its all in the dead fall presentation sometimes.
I'm rigging a new out of the box Mitchell 300 from the 70's for bluegill fishing. I have held this reel all these years but decided to break it out because you make a person want to fish. Thank you.
I'm 15 and from Mississippi watching ur videos makes me think about fishing with my papaw he passed a couple years ago and watching them brings back memories keep it up
First time seeing your video just now! Awesome job on those slabs! Send me your hat lol! Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
I have two or three Mitchel 300 reals. One I bought while stationed in Scotland in the Navy, that was 1962.
Thank you for your service!
Mr. Richard, Thanks for sharing all that great fishing knowledge. I've caught a lot of fish thanks to you Sir. Tight Lines
Mr Gene i sure do appreciate your videos. I'm telling everyone to look you up. I love pan fishing and you do a great job of showing how to catch them. I'm gonna be trying some of this bank fishing soon.
Me and my kids love watching you're channel thank you for being a family friendly channel............ "Let's putem in the bucket lol
Nice time catching bluegills. I remember once going to a local pond that no one fished for years but it was stocked some time ago. I was bass fishing with worms and caught a 9" long bluegill. It was almost as tall as it was long! Wow did that thing put on a show of strength. We had never seen such a big bluegill. Some years later I was in my car outside at a local fishing dive (The Tackle Box) and two guys came out to weigh a fish. This thing was so big I could see teeth on it from inside my car 15' away. Well that was it, I had to see what it was. Sure enough it wasn't a bay fish but a truly giant fresh water bluegill 13" long. What a fight it must have been to reel that thing in. I think it may be the record bluegill for Maryland. My record was 9" and was just fine, only caught one and that's fine too. Thanks for your video, brought back memories of catching a honey hole of bluegills on a canoe trip. Wish I had pictures of that day too.
Man after my own heart!! I love fishing vintage gear right down to my popiel pocket fisherman.
This reminded me of a dam my grandad took me to in Georgia. When the water level came up then went down, the cement wall trapped a bunch of fish. I watched in horror as the biggest rats I ever saw came out of the rocks and started carrying rather large fish away. I liked fishing from the boat better. I know there are giant catfish near the dams, but I like catching the small ones like 1-5 pound. They taste better too.
