[@brysonelbon1071]

Me and my Buddy Jeff love you! Every time we go fishing we say “Richard woulda had a stringer full already”😂

[@philais]

By the grace of God....THANK YOU RICHARD!!

[@MattLaClear]

Haha, word.

[@slabbusterrtr7690]

I feel your pain bud lol oh and ROLL TIDE ROLL!! says Elmo

[@adaml9494]

Love it! Anyone else listen to these videos at high volume and then need to turn it down for Richard's send off because otherwise you would blow out the speaker or wake up the house? My favorite fishing channel on KZbin. God Bless you Richard!

[@trentonsellers7600]

We need some bluegill and shellcracker fishing

[@natefizzle8675]

Richard Sir I just need to tell you that you have definitely made this last year a much more pleasant year than it has truly been. You have brought me alot of joy and laughs with your "fishin trips" .I just want to say Thank you and God bless.

[@phiology1983]

We just had a bad winter storm in Texas. Waiting for the water to warm back up to get out there again. Cant wait for spring!

[@jacobstarr9010]

I'm in Michigan and I've had to deal with that for 3 months so far. I just ignore cold weather and go anyways as long as it's not under 10 degrees

[@eugeneburton6878]

You just had geoengineering of the weather in Texas.

[@scottcozart8950]

Prayers from N.C. hope all is good in Texas.

Richard Gene, One of the few that gets big bites and waits 15-20 seconds to Set The Hook . My Grandpa used to do that with big purple worms 40 years ago,

[@beester1432]

I really enjoy being able to see the bobber in the water as it goes down. Another great video!

[@blaineschlagetter8983]

My 6-yr old son announced that Richard Gene is the funniest fisherman EVER! He laughed when you said, “Ole red lips.” 🤣 He also recognized and appreciates that you love God and thank Him all the time. The boy does a pretty good impression of you, too. 🤣 We appreciate you, Richard Gene.

[@DeltaRogueFishing]

Mr. Gene, I can't get enough of your channel! Your knowledge is a blessing to all of us. Keep doin what you do...I'm talkin about WOOOOOO!!!

[@creeksidehashman5365]

I'll tell you R.Gene, speaking for myself and thousands of other anglers you absolutely help us get through sometimes a long winter. Always a GIANT THANKS.

[@saraduffy3683]

I love this dude woooo! He uses everything and EXPLAINS everything. Thank you Richard !!!

[@garycleaveland2645]

Another lesson learned from a great fisherman. Thank you sir. “ God Bless “!!!

[@oscarlandag1831]

[@michaeltate9117]

[@johnhenderson7094]

Richard you are putting out the most wonderful content. It is such a good time watching you! I look forward to watching them after work, every time I get a notification. God bless you!

[@rjbabby]

No matter how my day is going, when I watch you on your fishin’ trips you always make me laugh and I also learn something. I live up in southwestern Indiana and I’ve got two sons who live in the Muscle Shoals area.

[@jonnygranville281]

Terrible storm. We got snowed under for a week here in Tennessee. God bless you Richard.

[@Vols69]

Your tips with live bait has totally changed fishing for me... Catching bigger and better fish!!! Thank you

[@bluegrassbassing3790]

God bless you Richard and all of us who watch his videos

[@LousyPainter]

You're very inspiring Richard! Thanks for being there.

[@sbc_4738]

That last Woo at the dogs just killed me! LOL

[@lancebmaxey4268]

Oh my I'm so ready to go fishing because it's good fer me

[@FishinwithGRAMPS]

Love seeing some fishing videos! Been doing nothing but tackle reviews and giveaways and have a new boat I need to review, but all this cold and snow keeps me indoors and out of the cold! Heh, in my younger days I could take the cold, but gettin older sucks! Thanks for the entertainment Richard!

[@passion4castin]

Richard gene I thank you for all you do for the sport of fishing, you along with a few others have inspired me to record my own adventures! I hope I can have as much fun as you have had with it!

[@Hey_its_Koda]

Always love watching new vlogs.

[@neoladams8519]

That bass probably thinking...Mr Gene, please "let em go", I mean wooo "Let em go". :)

[@albertoknotalbertoknot5131]

I love how you used semi antique fishing gear and still catch major fish... which I love keep them coming unc...god bless all

[@treyferguson2965]

I've caught smallmouth and large mouth mixed in with schooling stripers on top water baits in lower then 50 degree water temps. I won't running any pattern with it or anything, but when the time is right, they'll run shad up to top and bust on em. That's why I keep some kind of topwater walking bait on 365 days a year. On a 7'3 medium heavy duckett Silverado with a lews lfs spooled with 20 pound power pro, and a 12 to 18" Berkley big game 17 pound mono leader. Never changes. Stays on left side of my feet, closest rod to me ready to go don't even keep it hooked to keeper, I can pick it up and fire it on schooling fish in seconds. Normally it's a cotton cordell pencil popper, or a shower blows. Depending on if I'm thinking it'll be bass busting or stripers its helped me fill out a bag in tournament and helped bring home striper fillets to my little girl. She loves striper. Sometimes you gotta be ready to fire on em. When I'm striper fishing only, I got a heavy bucktail tied on, light one, a rig, and a rapala f18, or one of those big long striper bomber lures, and a top water. Some times I'll have a glide bait, or a big paddle tail. Depending on time of year. Those rubber skirted swamp monkey jigs guys use for striper on my lake are becoming more and more a favorite too. I love chasing them striper just about as much as I do bass. Especially when there hitting top water. You talk about fun. Take a lunker punker, or that new mega dawg by strike king, makes for some vicious blow ups and fun fights.

[@snuggalufagusjambuddy7303]

THE LEGENDARY ~ R.G.T.F.M ! Thanks for live bait fishing, tips, techs, and setup!🐟🐟🐟

[@person390]

You are the man . When I was 10 or 12 can't remember my uncle would take all us boys and set out hooks with shiners on a bever pond somewhere in Goshon Alabama and man at the bass and grenle. Big speckle cat on another bever pond where the creek met the caneca river in Pike county on the three notch trail . Crappie bream and lots of giant Jack fish to . Love your channel!!!!

[@savagenomore]

Awesome channel Richard Gene...I thought I knew a ;little bout fishing till I started watching you hunt for mohawgs.....

[@randallvanzalinge7373]

[@ronaldshank7589]

I wonder if it ain't ol' Elmo in disguise, a'drivin' up & down the road where Richard Gene Th' Fishin' Machine lives, a'pesterin' Richard Gene to the point of absolute distraction?!? I'll bet it is!!!😆🤣😆🤣😆!!!

[@Supersonicff-dw6bs]

Man, you sure have a lot of patience waiting to set the hook! It's amazing that they don't swallow the hook.

[@tracymeadows3442]

[@treyferguson2965]

The top water bite here on my home lake is starting to pick up on stripers. Few bass. I'm bank fishing until my boat comes out shop. Can't wait for the night bite and those wake baif fish

[@isaacfarmoutdoors5048]

[@kevinwaller9470]

Great fishing show Gene .Keep up the great work.

[@BigT27295]

Man i wish i was there with ya, love that style of fishing... Thanks Richard.

[@fastbusiness]

I've only been shiner fishing once, and it is just like you showed here. It's hard to find those really big shiners around here, but if you can get some you can catch some big bass, even in ponds.

[@lonestarwildlife]

The secret to catching fish is to go fishing as much as you can. Increases your odds dramatically!!! Keep up the good work RG

[@DR4296]

I don't know what camera you use, but the image is freaking gorgeous and clear!

[@wesleysmelcer3797]

I love all of your videos rgtfm you are an amazing fisherman and an amazing human being!

I enjoy your videos. Enjoy your scriptures you share! I’m down around Montgomery Al. Keep up the good work!

[@quavoe2107]

Richard Gene’s a lean, mean fishing machine. We love you in Georgia!!

[@ronaldshank7589]

Amen! I see that you're from Georgia, and I know that we don't know each other, but it's pretty cool to run into someone else from Georgia. The reason that I say that is that I have a Preacher Friend of mine that lives up here in Staunton, Virginia, but that's from your State! This ol' boy's a Georgian, through and through. He Pastors a Church here in Staunton called Faith Baptist Church, and he's a real old-timey kind of a Preacher, too. He's a regular FIREBALL when he Preaches, and I love it! He tells us that he's from a small place called Tunnel Hill, Georgia. Ever hear of it? Just curious... anyway-have a great evening!

[@quavoe2107]

[@ohiobassangler8781]

Richard gene is the GOAT. That’s all they is to it!!! Wooooo!!!

[@MichaelKaal-TriFisher]
