THANK YOU FOR WATCHING!

[@haroldcale4767]

Bank fishing is always welcome here, enjoy Fish On.

[@davidswimsr.8343]

It's no accident that you are consistently catching these crappie. EXPERIENCE. I rewatch all of your videos, in total disbelief of you getting fish to bite every day. I try to memorize the things that you are relaying from your experience. Thankyou. 10000×!!

[@charleswiggins9184]

I enjoy all of your videos. I am 48 and have just started fishing again, the last time was my teenage years. Thank you for all the information on how and where to fish as it will help me on my journey.

[@fisherman7621]

Your opinions have helped me put more crappie in my fish basket thank u again Richard Gene

[@charleshaggenmaker4522]

It just don't get no better than that....Ole machine has got it....never be another in the world like him....love you brother....

[@bamascot1]

I grew up in North Alabama and catching Crappy was a no-brainer. I miss fishing back home. There are Crappy here, but it is a significant undertaking.

[@davidswimsr.8343]

Give Richard a thumbs-up. Don't forget! For all the awsome advice on crappies. Second to none. WOOO!

[@craigphillips8328]

Mr Gene been watching your videos for about 3 days, just wanted to say that they are very educational and good quality. Thank you for the passion and time

[@lordmonkeyboy946]

I want to grow up to be like you Mr. Gene the Fishing Machine.

[@frankapplegate4852]

went fishing this evening and tried a jig like you said and I caught a crappie just like you said! not very big but hey, it was a pretty fish. I was using a green and I'll be getting some white ones tomorrow. Thanks buddy.

[@antondahl8945]

Hey Richard,go crazy now and then! Ha! Good final comment you made on economy jigs often out producing name brands,if you find the right one's. I caught my personal best crappie this past Sunday a 2.3 pound 16 1/4 inch beauty. Yet an older gentleman fishing in a boat nearby caught far more fish than I. He slow trolled a simple cheap yellow jig around the bridge pilings and mopped up on crappies. Another nice fellow tight lined minnows(no float) from his jon boat. He was catching fish all along too. Wonderful displays of skills. We can learn from such fisherman. I was casting a 1/8 oz fin spin blade jig with a 1/32 dropper jig up a foot and a half. Using fireballs too,when I caught my huge crappie. Thanks for all of the fabulous information,laughs and fun!

[@gregdunn5904]

By far the best fishing channel I’ve found on KZbin , love crappie fishing and your videos have helped me tremendously in having more success

[@KennyP56]

Great show as usual Fishing Machine. That last one was a braggin slab. Thanks for the fun. Bent rods & tight lines.

[@daletann5398]

Ive noticed here in nc,we had a cool front during the nights especially, and the crappie are already girthy,i caught 40 in one spot 90 percent were over 10 inches,WOW they changed up with the weather dramatically, thanks mr gene for the help, we need to start calling u uncle gene lol

[@sammyvh11]

The old stuff still works! Best Crappie you got in a while. Keep fishing put the money into the boat love me some Cream baits at Wally.

[@loutippey9792]

Richard Gene those were some very nice slabs you were pulling out from underneath the boat docks. A simple pearl curly tail or straight tail is hard to beat. Works here in TEXAS as well. Good Vid as usual and keep em coming.

[@andrewhaley8992]

Mr. Robert, I have fallen in love with your videos. You have really gotten me fired up for fishing again. Thanks for all you do!

[@richardbledsoe3312]

Thank you so much for sharing your expertise on crappie fishing. I know I appreciate it. Thanks again Richard

[@elchicotony7637]

Well here on the Carolinas just to use a 1/16 jig with a purple green tail grub and the most important its glue it together and u will not loose time fixing jigs...great vídeo mr fishing machine

[@bobodum6415]

[@jacob2790]

We love you gene!

[@billantrim2251]

On Weiss this week brother and it’s hot!! Still catching a few but mostly just relaxing. Great job as always my friend! 👍🏻 God bless and Go Big Blue 💙!!!

[@tyrannusvenandi6930]

I've just started watching your videos, been learning a lot too lol. Never been crappie fishing but I think I'll do good with all the tips I've gotten from you.

[@Razzy316]

Another great video Richard Gene keep up the phenomenal work. Best fisherman on KZbin folks

[@kellycottrell1674]

Another great episode! Keep em coming Richard Gene!

[@johnniecarter318]

Richard those jigs remind me of the triple ripple jigs I buy at Bass Pro. If you get a chance to get some or are willing to take a chance on a jig a stranger from VA told ya about, order you some on line I promise you will not be disappointed. You know far more about what colors to use when than I do so I’m not gonna try to tell ya what color to order. But I will say they got about every color you could want. I really enjoy your videos please keep making em and I promise to keep watching and liking em. I hope you will try the bass pro triple ripple grubs now I know Johnny Morris don’t need anymore money but you could sure give ya money to lot worse person than Mr. Morris. I’m a fan of his too he does a lot for the environment to make sure our young is and grand youngins have good places to fish and hunt to. Sorry I got to rambling on. Have a good day and good luck on the water!

[@tracymeadows3442]

I will continue to listen to your opinion in each and every one of your videos brother....because it’s simple 👍 I know for a fact all you need is a stick line and a jig to catch a Crappie without a doubt you are THE TRUE KING OF CRAPPIE!!!!! We love ya brother 👊🏻Keep doing what you’re doing Sir, because it’s GOOD FER YE!!!!!

[@blakeevans1898]

i like your 2''pasload tackel box!!!!!u ol carpenter

[@chhengpech8925]

Mr. Richard Gene I really love your fishing channel. I want to thank you for your expertise, advice and opinions. I honestly don’t understand how someone could give your episode a thumbs down and not respectably and politely give a reason? So I think that they may not have discovered a true relationship with Jesus yet. May you continue your show and God bless.

[@adamparsons1725]

Just throwing out there...probably that DERN ALABAMA Hat he wears!!! ITS FOOTBALL TIME IN TENNESSEE....yes, I know its just cause the Vols sort of suck. Full Disclosure LOL I give him grief over it sometimes...but wasnt me with the THUMB DOWN . Must a been an Auburn Fan...they is a few of them rascals around where he fishes! LOL

[@chhengpech8925]

adam parsons 😂

[@haroldbaade4461]

I’ve built brush piles and now I am thinking about chumming for crape. Will chumming work on what should I chum with. Thanks for all the fun Richard!

[@FishCorn]

Of course mate, I enjoyed this video a lot. If possible, please add river fishing video. Thanks.

Incredible place, beautiful Fishing! Hug and always good *Fishing!* 👍🎣

[@loboblanco2776]

Gracias por el tip, buena presentación del señuelo GRUB.

[@williamc7460]

Mr.Gene the King machine. Great video.

[@partner348]

Much appreciated, but i will say this on the idea that any curly tail will do. I've used that very curly tail. When he pulled the lure through the water near the rod tip at the boat to demonstrate the swimming action, he pulled it a lot faster than he fishes, and that tail won't swim at the speed he fishes. The "wrist", where the body meets the tail, is too thick. He caught fish, but it wasn't due to the swimming action of the lure at the retrieve speed that RG notoriously fishes. Look for a lure with a thinner wrist. Berkley makes one that will swim with the least amount of forward movement. It's more like a ribbon tail. Or...you can trim the wrist of the WM lure with a pair of scissors.

[@chrisfuoco216]

Great video man ,keep it up. You need your own show

[@wpgordone352]

I really did like that video, airr ELLMO ! Did you get in poison ivy in one of them Creek Fishing Adventures ? Due to the weather interruption, Gene could ye go an do us anuthin with them curly tails ? I was really excited there at first ,when you said you were going to really get into discussion on fishing with Curlytail jigs !! But then the thunder cut you short ,and I don't blame you for getting off the water when thunder sets in !! I love you , brother, even though I am a lifelong, diehard Georgia Bulldog and always will be !! Fishing really has a way of bringing all us Southern kinfolk together . Thank you so much !

The best damn Crappie fisherman on the Internet!!! Love your videos!!

[@patarmstrong1712]

Ole Buck Henry wrote a book about catching fish based on depth, speed, and lastly color. He also had a line of diving metal baits, in different colors. and his claim was if you followed his model, you'd catch fish.

[@williamwilson3785]

Name was Buck Perry.

[@tysonfaries4194]

I learn slot from your videos

[@PigPatrolTV]

Solid slabbbs man 👏🏻

[@cjpothier8308]

Thank you so much for your knowledge and tips. Love your dedication and passion. Hope to use your help to dispel my dry streak and start catchin. But as you know still going out caus it's "Gud fur me"

[@Opiemus]

'Thanks for the video, I always use a curly tail jig with the 1/32 oz. jig head and have done really well over the past few years, just can't find a fish on a dock in 9' to 12' of water this time of year on Lake Murray in SC. I have to wonder if it's because you fish lakes with current. You have me wanting to downsize from 6lb test to 4lb but I have tried the Mr. Crappie yellow line and found it a bit too brittle and it retained a lot of memory. I watched your video on soaking the line to get rid of the memory and I may give it a try. Thanks again, and I agree depth is the key.

[@soonerman3695]

It works great. Once I did that it helped so much with it jumping off the reel and windy knots

[@vidsoutmike]

Cool video Richard!! I work for Creme Lure co. and appreciate all your videos.
