    My neighbor went fishing down in Bridgeport, Al. from the bank. He cast his line in, leaned his pole against a large rock, then turned around to get something. And his pole went bye bye. He said it couldn't have been more than ten seconds. Since he only had the one rod, he had to just turn around and go home.

      If you lose a rod, tie on a large treble hook.
      You can catch the loose line and get your gear back.

    You should do a video of some carp fishing on some of those side creeks in the Tennessee river valley. I know they ain’t the fish most of go for but I’m sure you’d make easy work of them and I’ve heard they put up a great fight.

      Yes congratulations if you quit smoking. I didn't and I'm dieing from it. Being on oxygen is not fun and if you're a smoker reading this, it's a sign to QUIT SMOKING! Believe me it's a scary way to slowly go and not worth the "pleasure" you think you're having. Enjoy fishing, not smoking. Don't slowly drown yourself with smoke. Believe me you'll regret it if you don't quit. Smoking should be illegal, I wish it was illegal because it's an ugly and worthless thing. So QUIT IT while you can. Here's your sign...

    @brianlykins6663 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

    Hey, Richard, great day chasing the neighborhood cats.
    I'm having a tough time deciding crappie on 2lb line. Now you wanna go after catfish with 8lb line and ultra light rig. If it was anyone but you, I'd likely think you fell outta the boat on your noggin. You've never led us wrong or told us wrong, so I guess I'm gonna try it. Oh well, used to catch them on cane pole and whatever line we could find.
    Cut bait, bobber, and hook, doesn't get much better or simpler.
    Richard, thank you for all the knowledge and tips that you give us all the time.
    God bless y'all and stay safe on your travels to these fishing spots.

    Richard is the GOAT, but also remember he is fishing amazing bodies of water and has the time to find the bite. Where I live, unless I drive 2.5 hours away, the catfishing is so hit and miss. I can fish with fresh shad, shrimp that still has the guts, cut perch, live perch, or any other bait for several hours and maybe catch one 2lb channel, lol. Location is key!
