GOD BLESS YOU ALL AND THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR WATCHING! - Sport
Richard my dad dead and gone now 12 years. Well he taught me a lot of ways to fish and they were just like yours. I’m now 76 years old now and watching your videos makes me feel like I’m fishing with dear old dad. Thanks Richard memories.
Best fishing channel on CZcams... Second to None!
Check out Realistic Fishing is easily as good. I sub both.
I 2nd this notion! #1 for sure.
@Cosigner22 I was referring to your comment.
Richards fishing channel is 2nd to none, in my opinion! I really enjoy your videos Richard. Ive been a subscriber since when you had 80,000. Now look at you with over 300,000 and still growing. God bless you Richard!
He is a true fishing legend for sure! How awesome would it be to be able to fish with him
I always wanted to fish with that stuff as a kid. And I remember doing it at least once as a kid when I entered a local fishing tournament held every year in my small town. Before the tournament they stock a little section of the creek with a bunch of channel catfish, and so many people attend, you can't really even cast out.
I remember feeling instantly defeated because there was no room to cast. So I just dropped mine straight down against the wall below me, and wasn't expecting to catch anything at all. Before I knew it, I caught one, and it finally gave me confidence that I could catch some. Felt like I found a cheat code, because everyone else was unnecessarily trying to cast across to the other side. I think I ended up catching 4, right up against the wall we were sitting at. A young lady, probably working for the local news paper stopped to take a picture of me with one of my fish. I don't think it made the paper though. My cousin only caught 2, casting across the creek. We used this stink bait, but those stocked fish would've bitten just about anything.
I did win in a category in that fishing tournament when I was about 3 years old in the 90's. I think I won a little kid tackle box and fishing pole.. I was in the local newspaper for that, and my now late grandparents saved it.. Guess which fishing category the newspaper said I won...
...Smallest fish! 😂🤣
You are so funny and such a good fisherman and teacher.
My mother won smallest fish once. She couldn't stop laughing. It wasn't even a game fish it was some sort of creek minnow. Maybe a very small shiner. I'll never forget her red face. My father put them up to it.
After seeing this video I'm kinda mad, because until now it never occurred to me that I could use a split-shot sinker as a stop for a Carolina rig. Such a simple yet ingenious idea. Thanks again Gene for helping us become better fishers and hoping better fishers of men also. Blessings and peace to you in all you do.
Works good on braid but can create a weak spot on mono/ florocarbon ;)
@@mikecollins8241Good to know, thanks for the warning.
Thank you, Richard for another great video.
I had an uncle growing up that loved catfishin. He used to say, the best bait for cats, the worst it stinks the better tgey bite. We'd take buckets full of corn, fill it with water, put on the lid and let sit in the sun for about a week. Not for those with a weak stomach . He'd take gizzards, livers and the blood bait, seal em up for days and use em. Don't think I'll ever forget those smells.
Brother Richard, man I hope ya'll know how much you meen to those of us that follow you. Really appreciate all the tips, techniques and knowledge you share with us.
God bless you and your family my friend. Stay safe out there on the water.
I'm pretty shocked that Magic Bait catches anything. I always thought it was a joke. The environment Richard used it in makes sense. I'm also convinced that Richard could catch a fish on any bait :)
No joke it slays, pro tip is wear some gloves 😂
I remember buying this exact bate couple years back. Tried it in a few different spots and of course didn't catch a thing. Not saying it doesn't work because part of being an effective fisherman is understanding weather, season patterns and fish species behavior in certain times of the year.
I catch channel cats almost every time I throw that stuff. The Hog Wild Balls work best for me. They can't get enough of it.
This man could catch fish out of a mud puddle
@@TermlessHGWfor me I always carry it as a secondary bait because it is in a bag and easy to transport lol. It is a very hit or miss bait for me. I have had night where I caught 8 good catfish on it but on the next trip I will not catch a thing on it. Also I like that it holds on the hook really well
Funny story: My dad, my great uncle, and I were going to try catfishing off the bank of Grand Lake in Oklahoma when we were camping around Memorial Day.
We went to the local Walmart, and decided to try some stuff we never seen before. Stink bait that came in a plastic tub container. We also bought hooks that were designed for it. They were treble hooks that I think had a wire and small sponge wrapped around it to help keep the mushy stink bait on the hook.
We head back to the lake and started fishing in the dark and sitting in our chairs. My great uncle gets up and baits his hook, rears back, and casts.... **Thump!**
My dad said something hit his head, on his hat.. My great uncle turned on the flashlight and we see a big ol gob of that stink bait on my dad's hat. 😂😂
Obviously it flew off of that hook when my uncle casted and landed on his head. Lol Gave us a good laugh.
Love Grand Lake fixed it every year for vacation from California 😊
@@markm1984 Wow. Small world.. I live maybe 30 minutes from it. Although I've seen lots of people at different campgrounds, fancy boats, and occasionally pro bass fishermen, I never knew it was popular or well known nationally.
I live at Grand Lake. It's an awesome catfish and crappie lake.
That reminds me when I cast out with chicken liver and some came off and hit my brother-in- law right in the face with it,lol
Grasshopper and chicken blood? That's Klaus Schwab's favorite flavor! +1 Like
95% of my catfishing I use that magic bait. Arizona, California, and Nevada.
Thought it does not stay on the hook so well in warm and very hot weather. I have created 2 ways to put it on a hook so I can cast it as far as I can.
Magic Bait really works. I have been using it almost 20 years

We went "catfishing " with chicken liver on Sunday and got to learning how to crappie fish with a local out here the same day. Result? No catfish caught but got tons of crappie with a simple setup. Keeping doing what you do, always learning from you.
❤ Mr Gene, he is so amazing and should have his own show on tv.🎉
Love when you show on the Helix what you’re seeing. Thank you! I’m still learning what I’m seeing.
Got to meet Richard in Guntersville the other day and what you see on these videos is what you get in person. Down to earth and a good man!!!!
Thank you Richard for all your hard work.
I have so much fun watching your videos Richard Gene.
Thanks for your show.
Richard your just a good man and we love ya and appreciate ya!
Richard Gene the fishing machine, thanks for sharing your videos and keep them coming please.
Richard Gene, you make our day! We can't wait to see your videos, you are a bright light in this world! God Bless you and Mama Sue!
Richard always comes through with new content and great tips! I hope the jigs from the festival bring you good luck ol buddy
Im glad I found this channel a few weeks back. I enjoy it alot! Thanks!🙂
What a great guy it's like we are right there with him in the boat having the best time.!!!
Great video Richard GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY RICHARD
I live next to the Mississippi River 15 miles west of New Orleans. There is a high earthen levee to shield River Rd. with a cavass or large pond between the river and the levee that overflows when the river gets high. About twenty years ago I was walking along the Cavass after the River had crested and saw huge channel cats swimming along the edge where there is usually dry ground. I went to Walmart and bought a pack of stinky bait. I used a cork and threw the line in. In a couple minutes I caught a small one. The next cast took about as long, and the cork shot under the water. I pulled out a channel cat that was about five foot long. This blood bait really works for catfish.
I always keep a bag of magic bait in my tackle box! I like to use it to make my setups a bit more weedless at times, or to fill a cavity within a bait. Just something I messed with last winter. Magic Bait is actually made right down the street from my house, out here in Guthrie, Oklahoma!
I wonder if he will ever do a contest or lottery of some sort for his fans to go fishing WITH him! How awesome that would be! Learning directly from him at every step.
Good video, Richard. Good strategy for picking up those kitties. The only thing I would change is adding a small swivel and a mono leader. I know it isn't necessary, but I just feel that the swivel lets them spin and roll, and you avoid abrasion on the braid. Anyway, another good one. I thoroughly enjoyed the time with you. Blessed be.😊
Recovering from foot surgery and this video popped up!!!! Wooooooo weeeeeeeeeee!!!! Time to enjoy.....watch.....and learn!!! God bless you Richard!!
I live on Lake Tawakoni Texas and we have blues and channels here, I can say we do have some small channels but I've caught some big channels also. We also have flatheads and bull catfish in the Creeks to. Ive lived at this lake for almost 30 years.
Mr. Richard Gene, thank you for explaining your set ups. The kids are learning.
Love my Pfluegers. They are great reels. I've been using Pfluegers since the 50s in bait casters when I was knee-high to a grasshopper.
hi Richard i discovered your channel around a year ago and i have been hooked ever since .i have learned a lot in the last year from watching your channel thanks for all the tips
Like always making those great videos I really enjoy your videos Mr. Richard I have learned alot about fishing all the way around the broad God bless you and keep making there great videos
You the man Richard. Great video as always. Go fishing when ye can cause it’s good fer ye!!!
You are a legend Richard Gene. Thank you for this channel.🎣
First time I ever seen that stuff catching with it. Great video
Look forward to seeing videos. Keep it up Richard.
Finally a prepared bait video for ole whisker fish... Love your channel and videos Mr. Fishing machine.. maybe you'll go one step further with the prepared baits and try some slip cork fishing with punch bait for them. Lots of fun my kiddos love watching the cork going under like when they were younger and bobber fished for bluegill and other sunfish.
I really enjoy watching and learning from your fishing Vidos.. Professional bass master!!
Another epic video by the man, using that Wal-Mart stink bait lol😂 Anyways stay safe out there and stay hydrated and have a blessed day. Aloha from Kansas
i use to fish old hickory the cumberland river. we have blues and channels. i caught channels over 20 lbs.
Absolutely love this guy wish I could go fishing with him
Thanks Richard for all the great advice… thank you for all you do for us even if you don’t know it.. much love going out to you all❤
Woo Woo Richard! Thanks for some nice fishing fun. ❤️
Great show brother I loved it as always god bless you brother
👍💖 You always make me smile...love it!
Another awesome video Mr. Helms!
Richard we need that WOO!! Compilation
That would be epic
I'd love to see a wooo compilation
Let’s make this happen
Got to get me one of them trolling motor’s like you got Richard!
Richard you know your stuff when it comes to fishing.., definitely a fish n machine
Our general river rig was a heavy sinker on bottom and a hook 1 and 2 feet off bottom. I still use that . We knew the slip rig but rarely used it. I love crick rods just not for catfish. That kind of bait I’d use a treble. My fishing hole is a major rock snag fest . Can’t fish braid in those hazards 😂. Those catfish would bend a medium or medium heavy rod the same.
Thanks for the hints and tricks.
Loved this video. Thank you for great content
Ive never caught anything on this Magic bait. Ive tried several kind of Magic scent. I always use chicken. Never fails me. Or have used Bream.
15:55 That comment makes sense. I've fished SE Kansas and there just aren't Blue Cats around .. and 7-10lb Channels are not unusual my PB is 17lb channel on cut bait ... so far.
Great video Gene I always enjoy what you do.
Great job Richard love the channel
I do a lot of ultra light catfishing up here in iowa on the Mississippi River pool 19 a lot of fun for sure
Thanks Richard. Gob bless you, Brother.
I've heard that same story about blues and channels. I think the channels stay smaller because the blue cats are voracious eaters. Enjoyed the video!
I needed this today. Thanks fishin machine.
Thank you for the blessing.
Good job Richard, have a blessed evening, love you
Started watching in 2017.. Lots of love from the Ozarks of NW Arkansas
I love your energy. This is me when I fish
K.i.s.s. is the rule on this type fishing , also down sizing tackle is just a blast ,hence,"sport fishing" ,great video brother
Yep Richard, that was a big channel for this lake!! LIVE FOR THE THUMP MY FRIEND!!
Thanks for the awesome video!
I like using the Magic Bait Hog Wild Balls it comes in a plastic jar. I catch Channel Cats almost every time I throw it.
I use that stuff as an extra scent on my predator sets.🤠👍
Enjoyed the video!
Love the channel checking in from Athens alabama
Please take me fishing with you
Woo! Let’s let em go. Love the channel.
Good stuff Elmo!
I greatly enjoy your videos Richard! Woooooooooooo
God bless you Richard
May God continue to bless you and Momma Sue.... Phantasmagorical... now, THAT'S a good 'un ... it means dreamlike... Looking forward to hearing you use on one of your fantastic shows... Tight lines...
Mr. Richard, I would love to see you make a carp fishing video. Are you up for it? Thanks and keep them coming!
Hello! We went to Guntersville last month and went over by the barges but wasn't sure if there were any 'rules' about how close to the plant or barges we could fish or if permission was needed. Any info would be greatly appreciated for next time we go. Really enjoy your videos and info! Thanks and take care.
That is the ONLY scent I used when taking my son fishing years ago that actually worked for me.
Thank you Sir for another great video!! Had a question……what brand of braid are you using … looking for a quality braid and I value your opinion. Thank you and God Bless you and yours Sir !
I finally accepted after 3 months of fantastic crappie fishing that they left so I’m rigging for catfish for a few weeks. I just got some of that stink bait you have today. Catfish are the bite that happens when nothing else does. .
I'm glad you got it to work. I have fished with it several times and never even got a bite because it would stay in the hook.
Are they sure don't like it here in Iowa? Because I've had before and I never caught anything.
And I had to blood and I had the chicken.
Yeah, I've never ever had any luck with these in Pennsylvania
Like when you said, “I might just look big”, and just stared at the camera.😂
Them was some Purdy fish 🐟🐟🐟 Mr. Richard
I use to use magic bait in ponds. Never really used it in the river much. I would like to see you tossing whole live bait under the barges.
Man I cannot say I have ever had super great luck with those dough baits. Nor really any luck with those pre-packaged shad on sale at Walmart. My go to when catfishing: hotdogs, nightcrawlers and cutbait/live bluegill (for the larger cats).
One of the biggest channel cats I ever caught was on a Berkeley catfish nugget, fell asleep bank fishing, woke up pole was gone so I waded out 20ft and swam around in the dark in sommerville lake in burleson Texas, found the pole in the dark in 6ft of water, 32lbs. I caught a 36lbs plus one that was with chicken livers strangely. Usually baby on the liver.
You and my grandfather Lurr Hill would have had a ball fishing. I sure miss him ❤
I see you're sporting some new duds. Looking sophisticated and I don't know how to deal with that😊. Another stupendous ( how you like that big word?) video man. Roll Tide and keep 'em coming.
I been downsizing everything here lately an enjoying tthe fight. Im addicted to it.
I like your big resilient words Mean Gene
Richards Gene, please do some carp fishing in the future.
thank you sir
Gross
I wish you were my neighbor, Richard. You are THE MAN!
Another great video.
I used to work for a tow boat company...always fish what's called the sparbarge...it's a dummy scrap barge they use towards the shore side and they tie barges to it...its stationary and tied to the pilings...the big ones will stay under them...I have fished them all my life...if you can find 2 rake end or 1 rake lined up with a box creating a dark hole just drop your line in there and hold tight... we've caught cats many times that will pull the boat...put that bait, liver any smelly bait in a stocking and stick a hook in it and it's game time...pull the hook out and reuse it over and over...
great video bud i have used these magic baits in the past for trout and for catfishing its works ok but i get better result from Berkley catfish chicken flavored power bait balls for channel cat fishing or moon eyes or skip jack or cut blue gill as bait heck i caught more channel cats this year on gulp alive minnow crappie fishing this year great video bud i hit that like thanks for sharing iv also caught channel cats on kool aid hot dogs to with a float and and a tribble hooks
Biggest channel cat I've ever caught was using MagicBait "king cat"... About 35 years ago. My dad saw it in the store and bought two bags... Just because he liked that it was in "clumps" already, and you didnt have to dig out a wad like all the other stink baits at the time... Even tho i was 14 years old, I wont ever forget fighting that channel cat on my old hand-me-down zebco 404!
When catfishing I mix up some milo with water and some yeast in a few 5 gallon buckets. I put it in the sun with a loose lid on it for a few days. The liquid on the bucket brings them in and they vacuum it up from the bottom. Some chicken liver on a hook and they are caught.
“Would You Quit” LOL I love it
I catch a bunch of channel catfish with the power bait the chad cut bait ones 😤❗️🔥 fire
My 12 yr old boy sits and watches this man fish while his cousins do video games at family gatherings. Thank you
