    Interesting fact: Bluegill (and related species) will change their coloration when stressed! Those vertical lines on their body (like at 3:29) is actually a warning display, meant to deter predators! They are among the fish with the most specialized type of scales, known as ctenoid scales. While on the topic, gars (and others, of course) have ganoid scales, which are basically bone!
    Gotta love em!

    Again with me, I don't have the luxury of owning a boat right now, but bluegill and redear fishing is some of my favorite during the winter. Can't get enough!

      Really, I've never had luck with Bluegill in the Wintertime but catch a lot of Crappie and White Bass.

    Richard, as always I love watching you fish and talk . You are in my opinion, the best fisherman on the net or TV , I love the fact that you don’t curse and that you Love the Lord . May God continue to Bless you , Brother ! I would love to fish with you one time before this life is over .

    Richard Gene not only the fishing machine but the teaching machine , a lot on youtube take you along fishing but never explain what they are doing or what they are doing. Richard explain reel , rod , line , hook or lure . i'm 65 yoa been fishing since i was 6 but life and fishing is a learning experience every single day.

    Same area Richard when you made video when you were saying something about a sasquash or skunk ape or something. Reason I remember was first video I became aware of your great channel that teaches more than you know as you speak kindly and highly of the Lord each and every time. You are doing great work sir thank you!!!

  • @sicily6740
    @sicily6740 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Richard, thank you for the good video. We can walk on the water here so it's more difficult to get baits deep, but your videos - even in cold Alabama weather - give us northerners hope we'll catch fish when the water softens.

  • @kevinh5024
    @kevinh5024 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hi Richard. I love the way you lay a fish back into the water. Its a great thing.

  • @STAGERLEE2011
    @STAGERLEE2011 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Richard you are an amazing fishermen . I live on lake Moultrie in SC. I fish almost every day and thought I knew more than anyone about fishing but you got me beat. Your techniques goes to show what I have said for years. You don't need a fast fancy boat, sonar, or gear to put fish in the boat. I will say one thing. Them shellcrackers are small compared to the ones I catch here in lake Moultrie. It is easy to see how you have so many people watching your you tube videos. Keep up the good work.

    I'm a devout Bluegill and Redear fisher myself but have not done much in winter except Ice Fishing in north regions of the country. But Alabama I haven't attempted. After watching you however I'm ready to try. I mainly Fly Fish in Spring but am also
    experienced at Jig fishing. I've tossed a Jig to many a Redear or Bluegill on Beds in Spring as well. I like the Squirrel tail Jigs with a bit of worm on it. Caught many a one that way. But as I said Winter fishing Alabama for them isn't my strong suit. I'm going to change that now that I've seen you.

    Thanks for the tips.ive got a lake nearby on Vancouver Island BC with large Red Ear Sunfish. Having just got over a cancer and can't wait to get fishin. Your tips is going to help a lot. I fish for Rainbow's mostly but going back to my roots as I figured that out. Thought I was dying so when I got up at 3:30am. and jumped into the loaded up truck. After 200 days straight I was catching up to 10lbs. at my local lake.Also won the big trout derby 385 entries. Sure needed the $1000 prize. Sure do enjoy your show.
