This man is a NATIONAL TREASURE and these videos sre important to history and the future.

[@92GreyBlue]

One of youtubes top 3 fishing channels. No half naked wives in bikinis or thousands of dollars in unattainable high end technology to be seen. Just good old fashioned wholesome fishing. I absolutely love it.

[@jonnygranville281]

I been feeling down and out lately. Really struggling at work and home. Its cold, dark at 530 in Tennessee and it sucks. Can't go fishing. Thank you God for folks like RGTFM to lift my spirits. I really appreciate it. 🙏

[@adamalbert7856]

Hang in there, things will get better and people do care about you, and the Lord is always with you. God Bless and have a Happy Thanksgiving.

[@hannahlong763]

I know the feeling very well please don't ever give up hope. if not for fishing I really don't know what I would do. better days are around the corner I trust and believe in Jesus never give up.

[@CHUCKYL0VE]

There's never a bad time to go fishing, even if the waters frozen, just use a big enough jig to break through

[@adamsmith3996]

Keep the faith and hold your head up high. And know that our heavenly Father will carry you thru these hard times. May God bless you and your family.

[@jasoncampbell8797]

He will lift your spirits. I wish you joy and happiness Jonny and anyone else that’s feeling down.

[@chadguendelsberger2193]

My favorite Richard Gene-isms are when he starts chastising the fish as he’s trying to pull it out. “Stop! Stop that! Quit it now! You just quit that right now!” 🤣🤣 Sounds like me correcting my kids at the grocery store or something

[@jonnygranville281]

QUEEET! 😀 I love when Richard says "Queet, you'll give yourself a headache " when fish are flopping around.

[@FishOnIsMyHandle]

*THEY !!*

[@grungeboy1752]

My favorite is when he does something random, or say something random like whhhhoooooooo look at them Purdy birds

[@parkeranderson5074]

I was wondering what you meant by “clamming” over but then I finally got that you meant climbing. 😄 Learning much about crappie fishing through your channel. Thank you very much

[@lukegeorge7384]

Fishing is a sport second to none.. have a blessed Thanksgiving Richard 👍🙏

[@ryanf7788]

That's a big old Crappie fishing!

[@kylewells6871]

Bobby garland "blue ice" is a crusher, it is an absolute must have in your arsenal. That color catches me more crappie than any other color, black and chartreuse is a very close second in my opinion.

[@22mpb]

I was using the blue grass color the other day, catching crappie and bass in brush piles near docks.

[@Fishing4Reel]

I remember as a kid the Old fisherman's rule never let the first fish go. That was back in the day when people kept everything. But I do understand fish release hormones into the water after you catch them that can spook other fish this is the first time I've heard someone on KZbin share that.

[@tonystange8603]

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO THE MACHINE AND HIS FAMILY!!!!!

[@leejames7514]

Richard, I learn more on your channel than all other crappie channels combined, thanks for sharing your knowledge. God bless you and your family 😃

You are my favorite fisherman on KZbin. And I watch an upwards of 30 different fishing KZbinrs.

[@davidwarnock5803]

You sure are a amazing fishing machine. When I watch you I get a fishing fever, but can't catch those critters like you do. You are blessed for sure!!

[@sicily6740]

Richard Gene, you're a brave angler. If I walked out on those tree limbs, if I was lucky I'd be soaking wet in 30 degree weather. If I was unlucky, I'd crack my head on the tree.

[@marquailwhite2549]

From Arkansas and I use every method you use Mr.Richard great video

[@passion4castin]

Mr. Richard Gene, the trance you are talking about is something you've spoke on many times...fishbrain! I'm so glad you coined a name for this condition I was beginning to worry something was wrong with me! Nope turns out it's fishbrain. I find myself thinking about fish way to often..so nice to see other people in the world who have this condition!! Fish on fellas!!

[@mojokurk1637]

Woo ! It's Richard Gene the fishing machine !

[@Brett235]

It's 9:00 at night and you have me thinking about a place to go bank fishing tomorrow. I usually go in the boat but I miss doing what you're doing, it's so much fun. I don't even hunt anymore, I just fish.

[@Ch4MMPBoi]

Let’s go! Woooooo!

[@Ch4MMPBoi]

Oh, and, Happy Thanksgiving to everyone who reads this!

[@davidsenn9660]

Now Richard, those where some hammer's! ! Beautiful crappie!! LIVE FOR THE THUMP MY FRIEND!!

[@marklawver5222]

I always have a smile when I watch you videos. I love it when you get crazy, like when Cecil takes over your fishing hole. Be one with the bait! I get it. Be so tuned into what the bait is doing, that you tune everything else out. Thank You RG.

[@mikeone9759]

The fishing machine says it best, it's good fer ya! Nice,nice slabs my friend!

[@caseywallace2240]

My new favorite crappie foshin video.. Thars exactly how i used to get em as a kid. That and walking on the log rafts that came down the Columbia river. Dad would paddle us out and wed walk them. Almost any small crack between logs wed rip slabs out of. Those were the days. No more log rafts though.

[@brandonwoodcock4374]

Happy Thanksgiving Richard wooooooooooooo

[@mrdan1990]

Slabs, mules, donkeys, hogs, absolute toads. Monster crappie are great! Way to go Richard. God bless and tight lines sir.

[@tracymeadows3442]

[@markwilliams903]

Momma Sue is gonna be mad for turning all that good eating away. 😂 Another great video.

[@Sword-Shield]

That is some of those scat eating giant crappies 🐟 right there. It is.🤣👍✌Running across those rafters and joists it will give ya some good balance...After you bust it a few times...you learn not to fall and master the balance. Sho nuff do. Have a happy Thanksgiving RGTFM ! YOU AND CLARENCE 🤣🤣✌

[@stevegarrett6944]

Exceptional balance out on those limbs Richard, I would have been in the lake! Thanks for another great video! Happy Thanksgiving to you and family.

[@darkfiredDAWG]

Just started watching these videos and they are absolutely great!

[@OKGator]

Enjoy your videos! Thanks for sharing your knowledge of fishing.

[@royarnold629]

I watch your videos every day! Whoo!

[@fernandovargas6077]

LOVE THE ENERGY !💯 HUGE FAN!! 🎣 STAY COOL Mr. GENE👍🏽

[@Reals243]

Time to get the kayak ready Richard,!!

[@WarriorCall]

I'm talking about wooooooo. I may have to get up and fish tomorrow. I know it's good fer me!! Thanks again for a great video!!!

[@kylewells6871]

Those weedless crappie jigs are a game changer, as soon as I started using them my success rate went way up, nothing better than being able to pull your bait through limbs and brush with confidence. Another favorite presentation is with a 1/16 ounce chatterbait, it goes through brush just about as good but it has that blade thumping and getting their attention. The 1/16 ounce chatterbaits are kinda hard to find tho. The one I like is called the "flashback mini chatterbait". Try them and I guarantee you will fall in love with them.

[@bobbycrawley46]

That crappie's eyes were a long ways from his tail!!!! Merry Christ mas Richard Gene.

[@davidwoods1929]

Thanks for the video! Go fishing! It’s goood for you! I agree!

[@justinconkin265]

OL mean gene pulling out some slabs!!

[@jerryjrkilpatrick8527]

Love watching your videos ! Hope you and your family have a very blessed Thanksgiving

[@jessesaylor230]

Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours Richard. Those were some sow cow crappies

[@gerardreed613]

Them was some nice crappies. I've fished fallen trees and you definitely have to be conscious of lifting em. Good stuff.

[@HumbraHongryMHC]

Richard I’ve Seen You Catch Fish From A Boat From A Kayak From The Bank And Now From A Tree. Failure Ain’t An Option When It Comes To You And Fishing..You Sir Are My Favorite Angler On KZbin And You Deserve To Be…Wooooo…GO FISHING WHEN YOU CAN CAUSE ITS GOOD FUUURR YEEEEEEE EVEN IF YOU GOT TO WALK AND FISH FROM A TREE

[@ryanwilcox8866]

Loved this! Thank you!!

[@RealMakoi]

Grateful for you and your sharing the sport (second to none)! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!

[@12ArmyNavy12]

Nothing like a small lake for good fishing. Thanks for showing us how you do it your way. Merry Christmas Richard!

[@joseavega3076]

You sure make it look easy Richard you sir are truly a fishing machine

[@lilesnate]

Awesome fisher man one of the best I know. God bless you

[@nathanieltrowbridge9897]

Great video Richard. I thought there for a minute you were trying to do an impersonation of Bill Dance while explaining your method. lol

[@hirambrashier1449]

Have a great Thanksgiving, Richard!

[@adamsmith3996]

Absolutely correct Richard , a released fish gives off a chemical signal that is related to stress. Other fish in the school pick up on this and the bite shuts down , or the school might even move off. Natures way of self preservation. Great tip.

[@imsowright90]

Those were some good looking crappie for sure. Your the man Richard Gene. God bless.

[@RadFingerz]

I've watched every bass Saturday most fishing shows and would consider myself a fisherman like you I enjoy them all

[@coreyh7641]

Happy Turkey Day Machine, we love y'all, from TX ! Talking bout, whoooo !

[@jeSuperfly]

We're all very thankful for you, Richard!

[@d8alot]

I heard a rumor that Richard Gene left his coffee mug out overnight and a thunderstorm came through. The next day he caught about 8 crappie out of that mug. Caught em on a gold and chartreuse Perry Jig and a Bobby Garland Pink Phantom cuz he said it was “stained water’.

[@derrickjones3838]

RGFM is second to none , love your videos Happy Thanksgiving

[@mattpoucher9437]

Man those are some big crappie! Thank you for bringing us along!!

[@sethjohnsonoutdoors4055]

Looks like a beautiful day 😍

[@Shurmash]

If you haven't tried out the free rig yet you got to give that a try. It's one of the most amazing fishing presentations ever and it's really simple.

[@CHUCKYL0VE]

These fish are lucky they are dealing with Richard Gene, if it was me they would be in my frying machine!! 😁😁😁

[@michaelrogers8912]

Awesome video as usual Richard 👍. Happy Holidays to you and your family, and God Bless you all.
