    I am retired and love to fish in lakes and ponds. I love watching your show. I lost my fishing buddy, ( my brother) at 60 years old. You have become my fishing buddy and my fishing brother. Love your shows.

    The Richard Gene hook set is one of the most beautiful actions I have ever seen any human perform. I will spend the rest of my life trying to emulate it.

    They say an idle mind is the devil’s workshop. No chance he’ll get in yours because you’re always thinking up good ideas for catching them crappie. Great video my friend.

    It’s telling to your character how modest you always are when approached by other fishermen. You may have a boat full, yet you will always self-deprecate. Much respect!!

    Hello.....Mr.Richard !! I'm right there with you on the Sam's Super-Sensitive. I have 2 of the 7' jig poles and I'm the same way....I talk these rods up and down !! They are an amazing rod for the money and sensitive....man can you feel a light bite !! New rod and reel ......and I caught my new personal best .....16,75" but did not weigh him !! I was so excited I packed up and left after I caught it !! It will be on my wall soon !! Best part is it was caught using a technique that I watched you use many times with a bait you used in this video. 2" slab tail /pink glow with a 1/32 ounce jig head working it slow back to me !! Thank you Sir for your love of the sport and the lessons that you teach here !! God Bless you and yours !!!

    What Richard's wife is thinking, "He's awefull quiet, I wonder what's wrong...? Did I say or do something?" What Richard is thinking, "I bet that double fluke rig will work on Crappie, I just need to down size it, I bet it'll work.. it has to. I need to try it." Love it. I go thru the same process in my mind!

    Have this exact rod. Love it!! Although I found that the balance was front heavy so I added a weighted butt cap. It moved the balance point to the center of the reel seat.

  • @bassmatters9849
    @bassmatters9849 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I use that rig in the fall for bass. I use zoom tiny flukes on a #2 offset worm hook by Gamakatsu. I use a second swivel above the first swivel so if you hook 2 they can swim their separate ways.
    I only landed doubles once without them popping the bottom leader off. We got them coosa river spotted bass in Lake Norman and they mean! I caught a big 14 inch crappie in a bass tournament on that rig but just never thought to use it targeting crappie. Thanks Gene.

  • @timlee61524
    @timlee61524 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Mr RichardGene - you are by far my favorite TH-cam fisherman! I love your videos and appreciate the wealth of knowledge you share with your subscribers. This young man can’t thank you enough for all the pointers! If you’re ever in Middle TN, lets get together. 😊

    @ericpierce4510 ปีที่แล้ว

    Just ran across this video again after some time since I last watched it. As always, lots of great info that is timeless. I thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge with those of us that don't really get the time to fish as often as we would like. It really does cut the learning curve back a lot. Thank you sir for all the info you put out. I really enjoy them. Eric.

    I'm the exact same way when I have an idea that I get fixated on. Absolutely love when they produce. I tried this technique with bobby Garland plastic and crushed the Crappie and the bass worked my nerves 🙄 lol they couldn't leave this rig alone. Nice video Richard

    @ut000bs 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I always have to leave a like and some sort of comment to the best fishing channel on TH-cam. I'm going to use your loop knot from now on because the idea is a good one.
    You not only catch fish when no one else is doing it you show us how to do it, too. Not too many fishing channels do that. It's what makes your channel so awesome. I'm still telling people about it.
    Keep em coming,sir, and I'll keep watching 'em because…
    Fishin' is good fer ye.
    Thanks so much!

    Good one Richard! Noticed your using the slab tails a lot. Crappie love those jigs. I use the 1.5 and love them! Fish stalker makes a slab tail jig kit that is pricey but has everything in it. Thanks again!

    @undergroundchuckeytennesse2526 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    You are a very smart fellow....the way you have evolved this channel should be closely watched by aspiring you tubers. I really like how you are starting off in your fishing house or out around the boat with an explaination of what your rigs are and explaining the techniques. .......then going out on the water and putting your technique to work......then going all crazy at the end.....you are a genius sir.......my goodness I remember when there was just a couple of thousand subs.......cant leave without asking tho........have you ever tried to catch a fish on a tater masher? I believe you could sir ....that is as long as you tied it to the line with a dad burn loop knot.......enjoy every one of your videos.....keep em coming sir....please.

    Richard i recently got a 12' Crappie pole from a local tackle shop, and its the most sensitive Rod ive ever used. Its a little on the heavy side, but if you hold it under your forearm its like a feather. Whole combo costed about $35-40 Pretty cheap for how well its made. If you're interested in it its just a Mr. Crappie 12ft Combo

  • @stillwater62

  • @TroyboyQUE
    @TroyboyQUE 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Mister Gene that rig is a Flounder Magnet. We use it with a bucktail at the end then make a dropper loop 12" above it for the 2nd hook. We then tip the hook with gulp mullet. Deadly rig when we drag it on the bottom. Question for you. Do you think that stepping up to a 10# test leader for your rig will decrease the performance? Just the rig and keep your 4# test for the rest.
    Nice new pole also. Great video.

  • @bpml1969

      I found a bottle of gulp 1" fry looked like that white grub you had there. Paired it with a 1/32 oz yellow ball head jig...flat tore em up on a cloudy morning with a front movin through. Some times you gotta let the fish tell you what they want. We found that they wanted the smallest crappie minnows we had in our bucket so I decided I was going to give them tiny little fries. I didn't have to change baits. Just unhooked cast them right back out. With that Gulp, fish bite and won't let go LOL
