  • Folks, many of times in the past I've set out to catch some big spotted bass on the Coosa River. However, I have never been crappie fishing in that location. Today we change that! We head out to the Coosa River to do some crappie fishing! It's always fun to hunt down crappie in an area you've never done so before! I hope you enjoy the video! Until next time, go fishin when you can cause it's gooooood fer ye!

    Nice fishing, Richard ! I learned a lot from you about fishing and also about expressing the joy of life on the river. If Mark Twain never talked, we never know the waves and hard lives on Mississippi. Keep having fun. Was at Truman last week and caught some 2-pounders ! You are not a fisherman; you are a happy man enjoying fishing !

  • @lt.guppypatrollt.guppypatrol

    it's so enjoyable to watch a fellow fisherman have a good time fishing, , and teaching other folks how to do it to have a good time, thank you for explaining every part how the tackle and how to hunt these crappie down.

    Morning Gene. Nothing like waking up going fishing with you in the morning. It's good for my soul. Hope to one day run into you on the water. Jigging vertical structure is my favorite way to fish. So it's bound to happen. Enjoy your day my friend.

Thank you Richard😊 Oh and I almost forgot don’t get too excited and trip over that tackle box it could land you in the water with the fish😂😂 That was funny I had to replay that several times. But landing yourself in the water in the heat like that wouldn’t be too aweful bad I don’t believe. LOL

    Do you put backing on those bigger spinning reels before adding 2lb line if so, what knot do you connect them together with? Please show us a video of how you do that if you get a chance.

    • @RichardGeneTheFishingMachine
      @RichardGeneTheFishingMachine  Před 6 lety

    Thank you so much, Gene, for another fantastic crappie fishn video ! I really appreciate you taking the time to fill us in on the specifics of your tackle and techniques that your using on each video !! Hopefully I can duplicate some of it, with similar results, here on our clear as a belle, N.E. Ga. reservoirs!! It looks to me like you get amazing boat control out of your boat rig setups. I get so aggravated fighting mine, all the time, when I go cause the wind is blowing or youve got current to deal with !! My boat will fish tale like crazy!! Thank You again, my brother!! Keep those crappie videos coming!! Wayne Gordon

    • @mwatkins2464
      @mwatkins2464 Před 7 lety +1

      Wayne Gordon if your having problems keeping your boat still in the water I have been using the best anchor and it keeps you in place, been using it more than 25 years and most of the time it's free. I use a stainless steel well pump, the pump that pumps water from ground up to residential houses. It's about 20 pounds and about 16" long and most well drilling companies have tons of bad ones you can either get free or pay a small amount. You have to use a larger diameter rope on it so it's easy to pull in. I love using this. Just bolt a metal loop on the working end to have something to tie to and you won't be fishtailing again. Happy fishing.

I really believe.....it would be good fer' me! 😎 Lots of sore lips up there and one sho nuff Bigun without a lip. I know you didn't want to show us that hook with that big Ole lip just hanging on it....that's how you knew how big he was! That's OK though, I will keep watching....cause I'm HOOKED! Good stuff!

    Not far from there is a creek that leads into the golf course right past the water treatment plant that's a great spot for crappie and bass. Go a little bit further up stream from the water treatment plant and the outtake for Gadsden Steam Plant is a great place for crappie.
