    Hi Richard, I'm a disabled veteran and I have short attention span and short term memory loss. Many of your are okay for the length of time. When I get up and walk away from the tele, I often forget that I was viewing your video. Do you think that you could possibly keep your videos under 15 minutes? That's only if you can. I know that I'm alot. Thanks.

    I'm hoping your scale didn't go much further than 38 pounds. Either that or you forgot to weigh the blue and last flathead.
    That blue had about 5-10 pounds on that first one but that humongous one was at least 55 but I'll say 60.
    Wow. I forgot to thank you for taking us with you. Richard, I have the best time fishing with you. Thank you.

    Speaking of Steve Douglas the catfish king rod holders, before I found this channel. Steve Douglas was the only page I watched. He’s a good dude and very knowledgeable guy. He’s not as crazy as Richard. And I believe Richard knows as much about all species as Steve does about catfish. Lol.

      I learned that in East Tennessee but I'm an old-timer. Up here in Washington state blackberries are weeds. Took me a couple of years to get used to having to hack em out of the yard. They're all over the place. They're good, though. Back home we tended to not talk about blackberry patches around people who didn't know about them. ;)

    That’s my favorite area to fish for flatheads. Since the beginning of May my clients and myself have caught 5 over 50 pounds, a dozen in the high 40’s and countless 20-35lb fish within 5 miles of that area. Had a couple break the line that were probably 65-75lbs judging by how they fought. All released to keep getting bigger. My most recent upload is a client with a 54.3 a couple weeks ago.
