Locating Bluegill and Shellcracker When They Are NOT On Bed

[@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine]

Howdy Folks!! I hope you enjoy the video. I would like to Thank Jeff for sending me the jigs used in the video. I would also like to thank each and everyone of you for watching! I would also like to know what would you like to see more of on the channel? or what would you like to see on the channel that I haven't done? Thank you all for being apart of the channel, it means a lot to me! God bless!

[@snuggalufagusjambuddy7303]

I would like to see striper and hybrid striper fishing aka"rock fish" thanks, R.G.T.F.M

[@lauragambrel1707]

Hey Richard Gene,how bout a stream wading video where you catch your own grampus’s (hellgrammites) and fish for smallmouth,rock bass,etc. I love to that up here in ky. It’s not done much anymore. Most folks would be scared to death of a big ole hellgrammite. Love the videos. Keep’em coming. God Bless to you and Your’s.

[@mr.shellcracker9161]

I would like to see some striped bass fishing. I’m not familiar with this at all so it would be cool to see your take on how it’s done

[@jonathanhardiman6842]

I love your channel great guy...I'd love to see you do some fly fishing for them slabs and other pan fish

[@Beav8172]

Hey Richard, it's already been suggested... but I'd be interested in your technique for using crickets for 'gills!

[@Marli2023]

And remember Richard, you are being spoiled because you deserve it. What you do on here is greatly appreciated by everyone. You are the ultimate fishing teacher. I personally have learned so much from you.

[@dennisferguson9903]

Thanks for all you do Richard. It’s rare to watch videos without foul language and even more rare for someone to mention our Lord and Savior. God bless you and yours.

[@DieterMelhorn]

I like the "desert water" you talked about. 10% of the water holds 90% of the fish. "Old ways" of finding fish is also great advice. I tell my 11 year-old son that the water birds are the best fishermen anywhere. They fish for a living, LITERALLY! If they don't eat they die! Good video....hopefully we get to fish together one day.

[@stephen-thewanderer4007]

Too many people take themselves too seriously. I really enjoy you having some fun and sharing it! It is good info and very entertaining. Thx my friend!!

[@Bmobetter]

MR GENE, another great video, i'm a truck driver from Georgia, i live on lake Sinclaire and go fishing when i can, i cant tell you how much i enjoy your videos, makes my day. i would like to see a catch and cook video, keep makin us laugh, your good at it, THERE ELLLLMO

[@hellosweetheart3350]

I enjoyed your video, mainly because of your attitude and tenderness🤗 you Sir are a trip! Can you show close-ups of your set up "hook line sinker"?????

[@SunnyIlha]

Thanks Richard, You taught me how to understand the waters & the fish a whole lot

[@shaneowens8774]

Love all your vids Richard Gene. You enjoy catch fish whether giant blue cats or blue gills. Awesome!

[@kenscarbrough3533]

My wife enjoys fishing for gills as much as i enjoy eating them. We really enjoy the enthusiasm that you have for life, fishing and the great outdoors. Thank you sir for the informative videos...

[@johnnorthrop5218]

Love these types of vids. I'd rather catch a mess of bluegill than anything - fantastic fishing and so good to eat!

[@tonyhoward844]

Really enjoy you , brother. Nothing better than country folks ! I am from Kentucky, and used to come to Guntersville every spring, but I lost my best fishin buddy to cancer last year. We always enjoyed coming to Alabama, and always released every bass we ever caught . Nothing better than bluegill and shell crackers in the frying pan ! Keep doing what you’re doing ! Roll Tide !!!

[@gregwesley7171]

I watch 1 episode every day. Thanx for all the tips

[@raywood4223]

Just wanted to say Thank you ! I love fishing for pan fish but especially for the shell crackers of my youth. I have become disabled so I don't get to do much fishing, but I miss it deeply. You consistently deliver great action and we have been going ultra light for years. How could anyone ask for more from a fishing trip? Thank you and I can taste them 🐚 shell crackers are better than just about any other type of fish. If you can get on them this is my favorite.

[@richardwarmack287]

You are the one to be thanked for carrying us along with you on your fishing adventures. Thanks again for another great video.

[@stevemoore1799]

Thank you for your good, clean show!

[@DHR2D2]

You are a good fishing instructor. You cover the basics and more. I have learned a lot. And I like that you enjoy the sport with your light rigs. Thanks for your help.

[@joelhenderson5526]

Good stuff Gene hey and by the way I tried your rubber band and crawdad method in Waurika lake the other day and caught some nice channel cats thanks!

[@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine]

No problem Joel! Glad you tried the technique!

[@pearlycharles]

Catch,clean, and cook. Nice video Mr. Gene

[@saltflyz]

I love it. You handle those pretty bluegill with the care of a grandmother. Great vid!

[@biffklg]

[@sgbassin9587]

[@dwightdumas7724]

My uncle billy Ray dumas lived on the lake . He tried to get me to come and go fish. Watching your video makes me wish I had .

[@timothywalker8674]

I watched one of your videos about how you rigg a slip cork on a rod and reel. I use to put my bead below the cork and above my split shot but on your video I noticed that you put your bead above the cork so l tried that technique at lake Eufaula had much better luck. Caught some monster shellcracker and bream. I got pictures on some of them. Mayflies will be hatching soon

[@martydunn298]

Any time you can go fishing. Is a good day!! You the man!! From walleye man!!LOL

[@elmo-thereelfishingdeal2622]

Richard Gene - I don't think I'm gonna be able to make it next time on account of my gout. You gonna have to make it without me bubba.

[@dwz7q1962]

Great vid. I used some light line and small tackle the other day and caught some very nice blue gills ... the big hump backed, blue jawed gills. LOL. Had a great time. Thanks Richard! Just keep bending that rod for us!

[@ycity.music87]

[@justpickone]

[@outdoorswithwaynek7966]

I agree with all of these complimentary comments and I like it that you are an historian.

[@MrCarlosd70]

Mean Gene, my brother! I’d love to see you do a show on catching those hybrid bass fish!. Thank you for the awesome videos! Roll Tide!!

[@bigal1419]

Do as you do, great content as usual!

[@cherylcentenioblessedvirgi3241]

Years ago, it was common to find fishing corks in a natural color. These corks are no longer available. I take the bright orange color corks and paint them more of a color that matches the water on the lower part. Thank you for sharing your video.

[@timothywheeler5397]

Great video. I've learned a lot watching you. Thanks for the help.

[@georgezink8256]

Sir, You put the Fun back in fishing

[@crappieking5592]

Another great video Richard. Keep them coming son.

[@johnhickman930]

Been awhile since I've watched a video. Very busy as you know Richard. Dem some nice eaters there! My stomach was growling watching them filets come in the boat. I've really enjoyed matching my tackle with my target fish as you talk about. You really respect the power of the fish much more like that. Awesome video Crappie King!

[@byronspencer539]

II literally have this exact same rig. I usually throw trout magnets on it. Catching the big bluegill on lake chickamauga. Then we use em for catfish bait while my wife and kids swim off the back of our pontoon boat.

[@terrygwilson9628]

Great video. Love your videos. The absolute best. Thank you.

[@c.s.3746]

Since you requested.. I've been curious how you clean your fish. I don't believe I've seen any fish cleaning videos from you. I apologize if I've missed them. Then again.. fish cleaning videos can create a lot of controversy. Everyone has their way and no other way works.

[@detectivemikevarnado7515]

Great show

[@robertfoote3255]

Shell crackers.... Up north we call them red ears or red ear sunfish... Took me a min to figure out what you meant...but when you put that camera on it....I knew just what you were talking about..... 😉 Good down to earth content Mr. Gene. 🤠 Best Wishes!

[@billantrim2251]

Awesome as always my friend. Would love to see a video on fishing for deep water crappie and how to locate them. Hardest thing for me to get done!! God bless🙏. Go Big Blue💙

[@austinmalone821]

Can you do a video on how to clean fish

[@michaelmorgan2880]

Soap and water... Blow dry

[@ryans4431]

😂😂

[@michaelmorgan2880]

Learn to fillet... It's a crowd pleaser and it's cleaner than cleaning fish

[@pamelafrasure1588]

Thanks for the videos. ROLL TIDE!!!

[@garyleach92]

I love to catch bluegill. No boat but there is a fishing barge in the area. I just bought a 21" ice fishing combo and 2# line. Should be close enough to structure now.
