    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.

    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 !!!

    I have the Sam Heaton Super Sensitive jig pole in a 10ft length, graphite, and like you, I love that rod. It is super sensitive, and makes every fish feel like a monster.

    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.

    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.

    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

    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!

  • @jtfishingadventures896

    with B&M. Thanks, Gary

  • @undergroundchuckeytennesse2526

    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.

    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…

      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

    What would happen if you used a three way swivel and replicate the great action you have achieved? Have several pre-rigged as we all know that hang-ups and other issues occur. You are truly the best at what you do, I'm very pleased that I am able to watch and learn every time I see your videos. Thank You!

    @TroyboyQUE Před 6 lety

    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.

  • @adamparsons1725
    @adamparsons1725 Před 6 lety

    Thats a problem I ran into. Seems that the longer leader tends to find the fish and shorter one finds the "Fish Sicks" lol .I got to the point of rigging the shorter jig Texas-ish style. Worked fine. The double rig attracts a lot better than single,Plus most fish bit the main line jig! That Texas rig ish worked better than my other idea--using lighter line for the the short,fish stick finder. Thinking that I could just break the leader and save the rest...not so much success.
