A Simple Way To Catch Sauger With A Jig & Minnow

[@robertdudley-rx8qo]

i respect you richard for letting that momma sauger go so she can have her babies. love seeing people show respect to Gods creatures❤nice to see ,a rare sight. thank you and God bless

[@Grayboy82]

I don't call it luck, I call it bein blessed. 😁 I love that.

[@JohnGWilson]

"There it is... Gol-ley, this is a good fish here folks"... Every time, lol.. I LOVE your videos Mr Gene, and ive learned so much from u!! Ive never even heard of a sauger till i started watching your videos.. Thanks..!!

[@Harv870]

I take so many tips from you you're my Bill Dance lol love the show!!

[@geneg5870]

I'd like to see more catch and cook videos if you could. Thank you.

[@johnmiller5987]

It wouldn't be right if I didn't invite yall up north for sauger fishing. On the upper Mississippi you can ice fish in the morning. And take your boat out in the afternoon. Good fishing in that part of the country

[@itllkeal]

One of the best fishing channels on here. Thank you Richard and God bless

[@brandonedwards6976]

Your loop knot trick is the only way I tie loop knots now! Jig fishing I tie a lot of them.

[@robertwhite3752]

I would love to fish for sauger one day, and I’d really love to get some in a frying pan. I live in Northeast Ohio, and here we have saugeye. Saugeyes are hybrids that come from crossing a female walleye with a male sauger. Walleye have no distinct spots on their spiny dorsal fins while saugers do, and saugeye have both bars and spots in the webbing of their spiny dorsal fin. The saugeye is excellent table fair and is my 2nd favorite fish to eat only behind freshwater perch. This is making me hangry Richard! Lol😂 God bless you and momma sue, and give the pups big kisses and hugs from all your Ohio fans!!

[@gottcha_123]

A true fisherman I love it show Amanda fish feed them for life my brother❤

[@donjennings5418]

The best in North Alabama!

[@aneedmorehead9006]

& your patience with those other boats is commendable!

[@johnmiller5987]

That is the way when you are sauger fishing. Below damns are community fishing spots. Many have an etiquette where you pull rigs up stream and drift down. If you want to be alone. Go down river and find your own fish

[@martydunn298]

Those were some good jacks Richard!! LIVE FOR THE THUMP MY FRIEND!!

[@josephberreth5705]

Your educational video was great on sauger. That had to be a cold boat ride. Stay safe.

[@justtinkering6054]

Woooh!! I'm talkin bout Wooooooh! 18 inches is a monster sauger. Keep up the good work! I love your videos!

[@Death2Commies]

love the dedication ! only time I caught a sauger was by accident fishing for stripers below Wilson dam

[@robertcope2465]

My make a wish is to go fishin’ with Richard Gene! Wooo!

[@mikelane1065]

Love sauger fishing!

[@captaindefication619]

Seems like it’s been awhile since your last video Richard Gene, yet here we are another classic

[@WD-41469]

It’s been 5 days

[@pamartin]

When you got a "woohoo" from the cheap seats I chuckled to myself and then I heard you chuckle and I got even more tickled! Blessings to you and Momma Sue! Thanks for bringing us along!

[@larrybaysinger7312]

Find a bait shop in Sauk, Wisconsin and check to find out when the walleye and sauger bite starts. The same way you are catching them on the Tennessee River will get you bit on the Wisconsin River below the dam at Sauk. State record came out of this location and weighed 6.56 lbs. , seems like it was 26.5” long Might make a good video and give you a new pb sauger.❤

[@nashboro62]

Second to none!!!🎣🎣🎣

[@brianlykins6663]

Great job, Richard. Thanks for taking us with you. Appreciate everything ya'll do showing us your tips and sharing your knowledge. God bless ya'll and stay safe on the water.

[@1954rushing]

Hey Richard Gene!! Been watching your channel for a while. Thank you for all your tips and techniques. I've always wanted to sauger fish but really didn't know how to do it.Hopefully now I might have a chance to catch some after watching this video. Keep on sharing!! Tennessee T.

[@kalidromos13]

Richard, ive been a big fan for years, cant wait to meet you, when i inevitably catch you on the river somewhere sometime!!

[@kenelliott846]

Thank you Richare for the great info and video! We will give it a try! 😀😀

[@rl2109]

Great video, Richard! I have never caught sauger, but if they're good to eat, I'll be keeping the first one I land! God bless ALL of us! WWG1WGA

[@FishOnIsMyHandle]

Everyone knows who Mama Sue is

[@Chalz108]

Ain't that true

[@robertheschke5823]

Thank you Richard. For a great video. When you clean the sauger don't forget to take the cheeks out. They are so good. Bob from Wisconsin GOD BLESS YOU.

[@paulharwood1281]

You are such a Good Teacher, & Sportsman Mr. Richard :) thank You.🙏

[@danajones760]

God Blesses You Brother, and All. Thank You Richard ✌️ Always good!

[@manacle75]

[@stankbaitfishing7914]

My favorite place on earth right there! Great stuff!

[@dirtybuzzard5977]

Woo another great video. I hadn’t never caught or seen a Sauger around here. we don’t have them in South Georgia. I know the video of Ma Sue frying some . They sure did look good.. Stay safe Sir and Keep’em coming WOOO

[@richardpassmore2735]

Good fishing trip Mr Richard keep ‘‘em coming👍

[@jerseycowboy1]

Have you ever thought about installing some foam pool noodles on the edge of your boat? Just get the size you want and cut them long ways, and you can glue them on, or just slip them on when you're bumping up against the wall, might help protect your boat.

[@Haydenyergin34]

The machine has struck again!!! Love the videos.

[@sethjohnsonoutdoors4055]

Woooooooooooo weeeeeeeeeeee what a intro there Richard!!!!

[@jemilsense3972]

Posted 17min ago and already got 400+ views!!!! Ol Ricky!!

[@cornbreadburgess1950]

Thanks again for sharing brother 🙏😁,, enjoyed

[@BruceCrump-bh3jv]

Your welcome and thank you

[@dbax6800]

Hay Richard, I was just wondering if you have done any videos on small crappie hard baits like small crank baits , traps, etc. I have caught some on them myself. I was just wondering what your thoughts are on their use. You are a pro on finding and catching crappie. Always enjoy your attitude and comic videos, and absolutely a grand personality . Thanks, one of your grateful followers, Don B.

[@daverattigan8804]

God bless you sir love all your videos the first two jigs you had in hand but the first one you tied on that looks like a little perch if you don't mind me asking where did you get that I need one of those. God bless everything you do.

[@ryanoleston7136]

love your channel! so educational are you using your electronics to locate the sauger?

[@JoeyPatterson-l4o]

My first smallmouth I had ever caught was sauger fishing at pickwick lake with hand tied bear hair jigs tipped with minnows.

[@williamorman4779]

Goin after them here Tuesday, cant wait

[@joshuaborchardt4355]

You Bill Danced that second one!

[@JerryCochran-hi7mz]

I wish you made a fishing kit or a video with $100-$200 tackle box setup that you would start with today if you didn’t have anything. You have shown so many bait combos that I’m very confused on what to buy other than buying one of everything. Even the amount of different bobbers you use. I’d like to start over with one good kit with the best stuff.

[@robertdudley-rx8qo]

that jig you decided on i believe is called a firetiger color pattern. i discovered a rapala lipped crankbait in that pattern b4 that works great for crappie in the right conditions. tight lines....and God bless

[@gsxroyce256]

Richard I don’t know if you’ll see this comment or not but check this out. I was fishing with some friends and a few other people around the boat Harbor below Wilson dam for Croppie. No one was catching anything not even the guys fishing with live minnows I swapped to a pink bobby garland and got 11.

[@Cooper260]

Thankyou Richard god bless we love ya. My best to you and your family.

[@kennethbolton5647]

Can you show how you've made your bumpers for your boat

[@georgecoy3848]

Would love to see how you fry fish sometime!!

[@HomesickforAlaska]

Looks like the weather is supposed to be much better this week, mid 60's, I guess I need to get the boat out of the Garage and head to the Dam. I fish that exact spot pretty often, have taken a couple of HUGE crappie there, and several small Sauger.

[@mikewest712]

I always thought this spot would hold a wall hanging crappy.

[@firestorm8471]

Richard, please do me a favor and have some blood work done.I have noticed some swelling in your left hand when your right looked fine. We do not want fluid buildup causing any issues. A visit to the cardiologist for a checkup would not hurt . I love watching you fish and want to for many more years.

[@tdrummer444]

Have you tried any reaction baits for sauger? Jigging rap, vibe, vibrato, or ripping rap? Also I love your videos! Makes me wanna go fish! Wooooooo!

[@lawrencewilhelm3031]

Hi Richard! Can you give me the specifics on that bow mount trolling motor you got there? Love the videos!

[@sammarkey672]

Hey man, WOOOOO!

[@imsowright90]

Nice ones.

[@bill7949]

I call it BLESS TOO!!!

[@Up123-j9f]

Best angler in the world. God blessed the fishing machine. Dudes in the background childish, they’re jealous.😂😂

[@backwoodsboy8355]

Hey Richard, great vid as always, I’ve never caught sauger before, are they here in Weiss or only in Guntersville?

[@markhayden3462]

Pink & white have been a hot color here in the Ohio valley this year.

[@thomasvangeel1869]

Do you ever use live bluegill for bass? If so, how do you rig them? Thanks, and love the channel!

[@Roberts810]

If I'm mistaking he's got a few videos of him using bluegill.

[@FishHookedFishing]

Never been sauger fishing before! Looks like fun though🔥

[@Crankinstien]

Please more catch and clean

[@kennethmiller6594]

You and mama Sue can maybe do a catch and cook????

[@Bigboii69]

When are we going to get a catch clean and cook video

[@Crankinstien]

I love seeing a Tru sportsman fishing. NO CHEATSCOPE

[@glennjohnston7115]

Amen!! I hate the scopes. They are hurting others ability to catch fish. I don’t use one

[@joegrande4848]

I never use live scope either. I cover lots of water and use simplicity and catch a ton of fish. I use a 6 or 12 inch leader with either 1/10 oz egg weight or split shot. I'll tie leader with size 1, 2 or 4 baitholder sometimes a 16 baitholder if I'm going for bait fish. Of course if there's corrent I'll use a split shot or egg weight. If there's minimal or no corrent I'll fish it weightless. Then I'll use 6 or 12 inch leader I'll put a slip bobber on then tie leader to main line. Most times I use 12 inch leader. Then I'll tie a dropshot. Next I use 1/8 1/16 or 1/32 crappie jigs with a white grub. I put procure trophy bass on the few lures or soft plastics I use. Then I'll use a ewg super line offset hook with 1/32 1/16 or 3/8oz bullet weight. Soft plastics I use 3 inch hellgramites, zero z too smoky blue fluke 5 inch finesse worms or white grub 2". Lures I use a jerkbait a kvd splash a Berkeley choppo or a wake bait either a rat or fish. This is all I use and catch tons of fish. On a slow day at least 6 to 8 fish 😊😊❤ oh a new lure I'll try I saw Richard use a 1/16 bitsy jig 😊

[@jamespritchett1886]

Ur a bad bad man 27 degrees

[@ghetinknotabush8602]

Braving the 7 seas to catch a fish...u go, RG! haha

[@pedub2222]

Do they ever open them lock doors while you're fishing in there?

[@dannyrock5919]

Catching some mighty nice sauger again! I hate to say it but KZbin is just ruining KZbin with all of these adds, more and more and more!!

[@HamiltonBishop-st7bo]

Hey Richard, what brand of braided line do you use? Thanks

[@aneedmorehead9006]

I’d like to know what you the machine does with jigs after you use them for several outings. Do you resharpen them?

[@chrishoda4287]

What kind of lures are those?

[@joewhipd]

What is the rules on fishing near dams could you help me out I was wanting to try tying off like you are but don't know the rules

[@sparkymann4159]

RGTFM is a National treasure.

[@harryjohnson403]
