THANK YOU FOR WATCHING! - Sport
BEST FISHERMAN ON CZcams
HANDS DOWN AND VERY HUMBLE MAN
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
He is at that the best on CZcams and always explain how to be a better fishermen! Thanks Richard Gene!
Good video Gene. It's nice to see another guy as passionate as I am about crappie fishing. Keep the videos coming.
I like Bill dance too 🤷🏽♂️
For micro cranks I've found that removing the trebles and replacing only one with a single size 6 eagle claw true turn lazer sharp crappie hook on the tail with hook point up works well for getting into thick cover with less snags and it's easier when dealing with unhooking the fish. Have not noticed too bad of a sacrifice on the hookup ratio either. Thanks for all your vids Richard, You and Elmo are my kind of dudes!
I’ve been watching you for about 6 months now... you are by far one of the best fishermen ever seen... I’ve learned so much from you and that’s saying a lot because I’ve been fishing for 30 years.. thanks so much for what you do.. keep on keeping on with your videos...
I could not agree more !!!
Trust in Jesus Christ, the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, Amen Amen
I can't see how anyone would give your videos a thumbs down. Your knowledge, and explanation in your videos are second to none. Keep putting the steel to them my friend!!
I've never understood this either. Crazy, bitter people. Long live The Machine!
Because we are watching HIS videos instead of THEIR videos. Plus a handful of wackos who think sport fishing is evil/immoral
Easy. Every thumbs down is someone saying "I love this guy so much a simple thumbs up will not do!!!"
Because they are PETA want to be. That's why any outdoor videos from hunting to fishing always gets thumbs down retards. These people think that meat should be bought at the super market. Because they are oblivious to how that meat actually gets there. The only difference is they don't video it. And the outdoors videos or any videos that actually show the "the real world". Gets a dislike from these people with their head in the clouds looking at rainbows while sitting in their safe space bubble.
Yeah, bitter, unhappy, depressed and spiteful people are the ONLY people who could dislike a RGTFM video…
After digging those trebles out of that mesh net, I bet you don't forget your net anytime soon. After leaving my net at home a couple of times, I mounted a vertical rod holder on my center console, and that's where it stays all the time.
Richard, I have friends here on the Chickamauga reservoir that troll with cranks for crappie from time to time, but I don’t care for trolling. I had rather fish with a single pole in hand like you do. Back some 40 years ago when I first began to fish, I did troll crank baits like a swimming Minnow and would catch big crappie on Watts Bar lake. Thank you for your videos. I look for new ones everyday.
Little Arkie crappie cranks are some of my favorites
Richard the way you shoot your videos make me feel like I am part of the fishing experience. No body makes a video like you do. You have brought the joy back that I had when I first started fishing as a kid. I listen closely to all your tips and ideals. Most videos highlight the fishermen, you allow us to be there with you in every fish you catch. You truly are the fishing machine .
Every time I watch your videos makes me want to get out there and fish, keep up the good work Mr. G👍
Without a doubt one of my absolute favorite fisherman to watch. Humble, knowledgeable, and plain fun to watch. Thank you for the invaluable advice and entertainment!
Thank you.. The end gets me jacked up every time thank you again
Thank for the shout out Machine! The shirt looks great on ya!!!!
You're a kind person Tom Kelly. I moved up to Minnesota in 99 and the first thing I did was to buy a 7' and I don't know the specs on the rod cause they all wore off. Best way I could call it is light action. Fairly flimsy just a fantastic crappie stick. I only paid $17 closeout at Wally World I never been able to find another one like it either it's it's a Berkley Rod they don't make it anymore I wish I had two more just like it I'm really turned out to be my favorite fishing rod always fish 6-pound test on it would handle four easily I'm not much on 2lb test cuz I can't see that good anymore. Anyways that was really nice of you to take good care or Richard Gene like that.
Tight lines Bruh
Bill Walker thank you Bill, I just love The Machine, anything I can do to support his awesome channel, I’m gonna do it!!! He’s taught me so much! I thought I was a good fisherman until I saw Richard. That man is a fishing Genius!
Thank you for teaching! This is something I've always want to know, but barely anyone talks about catching them crappie on a crankbait. Thanks for the info!
How do u give a dislike on this video
Not enough cussing?
Not enough drama?
SMH😳
Thank you Richard for all your hard work!!👍👍👍👍👍
Thumb slipped, mistake. No one could not love R.G. THE FISHING MACHINE!
You are the best teacher in fishn .God be with you and family.....
I use my Eagle Claw Featherlight 3/4 7' fly rod to pull double duty doing ultralight finesse fishing just like this, great for whipping smaller roostertails upstream for them sweet Susquehanna smallies too, and even the 10-inchers feel like hawgs on it when they get piggin'n'diggin'!
That net is perfect for this video. Micro crankbait & micro net. Thanks for all you do for us sir!
Love your videos anytime but right now here in Ohio with the snow blowing & the water “hard” they are really appreciated .
Semper Fi
Great video, It's those little secret technique windows that I hold on to and make me love the sport.
good video. can't wait to get out on the water!!!
Brand new rod, eh? That cork is so clean.
Has to be my favorite way to hang slabs. Such a blast with a slow retrieve using my 7.5 ft fenwick ultralight.. Thanks big guy for keeping me crappie crazy😵
Excellent!! Look forward to the next one...wooo
Good job...rains headed your way...don't forget your net...
I always use rubber mesh nets so my tackle slips right out without ever getting tangled up in it.
I have caught my biggest crappie on cold rainy days. I like those small crankbaits.
Richard, I love your videos! Can you show how to do a catch and cook for Crappie?! Thanks for keeping your videos real!
I've asked the same question
Do the same thing,put them on ice when you catch em.get you some peanut oil and fish fry. Filet em up.roll em in the fish fry.cook them in oil at about 350 degrees until they float-ummmm ummmm ummmmm!! That’s good!!!
Richard Gene your the man!!!Your videos are always educational and enjoyable to watch.I hope someday to be half the fisherman you are.God bless you sir!
great video....thanks always for the great Fishing info and tips!!
Love fishing with crank bait caught many different fish
Thanks for showing crank bait crappie fishing.
Taking notes again!! I think I will buy that rod next week and give it a try! I have wondered why they jump off so easy! Thank you! Cute net ...Fish On..🎏🎏
Great explanation of a topic I have been curious about
I haven’t felt a fish on a hook in 2 weeks. Everytime I watch your videos. Makes me wanna go out no matter what the weather is. Also, how deep does that crankbait goes down?
They don’t go that deep, probably 1 to 3 feet I guess
I think that was Elmos net you were using. I'd say is just the right size for the fish he catches !! Lol
Woooooo I'm talking about woooooooo!!!!! You are an inspiration and that Bitsy Minnow made by Strike King is a lure that flat out catches fish. Anyone reading this try the Bitsy I've caught Smallmouth Trout Crappie Walleye Drum etc. They got to have it.
Love your down home way of your presentations.... its inspirational. I got my big ole boat out and got her started after I finally retired... found where I hid my fish finder, but I think my batteries for trolling motor are bad or corroded connections... we just retired. My wife and I are at Cuba Landing..... cant wait to get out and try to get back to fishing.
I love catching sunfish with these
I woke up to 6 inches of snow with 6 more to come over the next 12 hours. Thanks God that your videos up 😅
I love your videos, you keep doing what you do, you helped me catch crappie and bass, Thank you
are the BEST!!!!!!!
Mr. Gene;
Would you consider doing a video that highlights you boats and equipment? I know you own more than one, and it ain't exactly fishing, but what you use to get the job done has a lot to do with your success. Thank you for all your great content..
Once again great spectacular fishing Mr. Gene and go Elmo
Awesome video. keep the videos coming Richard
i like the arkie cranks for reeling and trolling
Crankbait fishing for Crappie? Only Richard Gene!
I luv the net Richard
All of your videos are great . thanks Richard.
love yea need to see you on those fancy cable fishin shows
Been fishing my whole life & I've only caught 2 Blacknose myself. Good job Richard.
Mr. Richard Gene you did mity fine using those small crank baits for Crappie.
I have caught lots and lots of Crappies over the years on Beetle Spins but very few on Crank Baits. Guess i need to come to the Tennessee Riva.
Good job my man as usual.
Lou From TEXAS
He’s the bob ross of fishing, love your vídeos!
Amazing crappie fishing skill Richard! I wish I can I learn your skill. My opinion is to locate where crappies are; baits are secondary important. If I use your bait, I still catch as many crappies as you do.
Another great video Richard 👍👍👍👍
Always a pleasure to watch and learn Richard, thanks so much!
Wow RG cool cranking crappies!!!!
Wife and I really enjoy your videos sir. Informative and entertaining
It's amazing how good of content your shows have. Fishing is literally.
If ol' Elmo keeps spinnin around in the boat like that, ya'll gonna get wet Richard...lol
As always..God Bless ya 😊
Excellent! Never heard of that black nose fish. Its 9 degrees today in Des Moines , IA. We have enough ice to fish on for the first time this winter season. I now need the " fire" to get off my butt and go.
Loved the video as always and I really enjoyed seeing how to catch Crappie with a crank bait which I’ve yet to do. Oh and we all forget our net from time to time.
I Always Wanted To Try To Catch Crappie On A Small Crank Bait..All Love Richard❤️🎣
Great job on those big boys .. Live your videos... But the only problem I see,, is that I wasn’t in the boat catching those croppie with ya ... Fish On and be careful out there by yourself.....
Thanks for all your advice and entertaining videos. 🙏💯👍🏻👍🏻
Me and my 3 year old love your videos. He cracks up Everytime at the end of them. His favorite ending is were you jump and turn around in the boat.
Great deal. I like all the different baits you use. Never thought about a crank bait much myself. Nice
It's all about confidence and experience, thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Great video!
Thanks for the share Richard Gene!!!!
Hey man I just wanted to say thanks for all the really informative videos I used some of your techniques last night and caught 27 keepers and had my limit of 15 crappie with none of them under 11 inches in just 2 1/2 hrs. Man keep up the good work!!!👍🏼
Richard Gene, just letting you know that in a few minutes, my 14 year old son, who seems to be hooked on fishing, will be introduced to Richard Gene the fishing machine. You will be his Bill Dance. Live long my friend.
Love seeing you catch slabs
I have a Strike King Bitsy Minnow in Fire Tiger pattern. From spring to fall catches all kinds of fish. As long as our lake isn't frozen over, it will catch fish. Plus it's much cheaper and easier that live minnows.
I love how you treat your catch!
Really enjoy your videos , really informative but common sense approach you take. As an old-timer , I really appreciate this type of No Nonsense fishing. It's really funny I have been sharpening my crankbaits. I usually use the ones you do for Bluegill , I love bluegill for eating more than any other fish. if you want to try a larger crank I use the rebel, and bomber. Great tip about the net, on one of my trips I forgot mine and as I was teetering on some rocks I lost the biggest bluegill and bass that I have ever caught.. seems it's always the big ones haha keep up the great work and good health to you
Hi Mr. Gene, excellent video as always, keep it up!
You taught me something today Gene thank you . Roll Tide
Young man, you need to do some bank fishing.... Easy way to excercise.... Stay healthy, i love the tips in your video.
One of my favorite fishermen. Doing it all for the right reasons. Would love to share a boat with this guy for a day, chasing any type of fish! Great video!
I just gotta say I really enjoy watching and appreciate your videos thank you very much. When I can't get out there myself I enjoy watching your videos.
I like that net, it makes your crappie look BIG!
I just love them Eagle Claw Rods and I like using them little strike king crank baits.
I enjoy your videos Richard. Lots of good information and entertaining.
So much knowledge! Very impressive.
Thanks for all the great videos Richard! Like always very instructional.
Thanks for sharing all the knowledge and showing us "how to" in the vids Mr.Gene....cracked me up with that bait net, but you are right, make do with what you have on hand and nice ol rod...got me cleaning up some of my old reels and rods and using them again.
Your crappie videos are great!
Thank you sir for sharing and showing us how to catch fish
Goodin ther Mr. Machine. Thx for the Video. I need to get to fishing after this polar storm
Love watching your videos! You're awesome!
THE FISH WHISPERER LOL.
I have had decent luck with a Rapala ULM4 or ULS4 either gold or chrome color. I troll with them. Great video Richard!
Nice fishing Good info thanks fishin machine!
Good one lets go fishing😀
Since moving to the coast I fish for speckled trout a lot. They are a lot like crappie in my opinion. They bite really soft most times. They seem to behave a lot alike. It can be tough getting them to bite but once you figure it out it's a lot of fun. I wish there was some freshwater around here that holds crappie.
Thank you for the video.
Best in the business ! Thanks Richard
Looks like a great fishing spot. Love the old school Eagle Claw rod. Inexpensive and darn near indescribable.
Great video.....love how Mr Gene shares his knowledge.....thank you sir!!!!!
Dude, I am in Idaho and you remind me of my youth in on the Tennessee river. Next time I come back there, I will pay you to go fishing! Seriously. You are just a joy to watch!
That was a nice strip ( black) nose crappie my friend!!
Really really enjoy your videos! Keep em coming!
