Fishing For BIG Fish With Bluegill As Bait

Folk's today, we will be fishing from the bank with bluegill for Catfish or any other species we can catch! I show how to rig a bluegill when you want to target flathead catfish, but this technique also works great for other species as well! I also talk tips, my complete rig / setup, and technique for fishing this way! I hope you enjoy the video!

I'm so glad I found this man's channel. It's a goldmine for a amateur like me looking for tips and advice.

[@twonumber22]

it's been awhile for me but last I checked different states have different rules regarding using a gamefish as bait. might want to check yourself

[@fappydabear1774]

Yeah same for me. I've learned alot about catfish and crappie fishing from this guy.

Thank you for the privilege of watching! I'm so glad I found your channel, not only because you're an excellent fisherman but also the fact your outlook is so optimistic. If my day isn't going quite right I can watch Gene and it puts a smile on my face. Thanks again and I think the "fish whisperer " is an appropriate title for you lol.

[@hookedonbassncats]

I love that you get the take and the clicker sounding off all on camera, and I really appreciate that cause it's almost like we are there with you. I get so excited hearing the clicker going off just like I do with a bobber down. Thanks for sharing Richard gene, your most definitely a fishing machine.

Richard, I literally stumbled across your channel just yesterday. I'm pretty sure I've watched at least 65-70 videos lol. You're awesome. I go fishing, cause it's good fur me!!!

[@WanderingWeekends]

Got my Elmo’s Guide Service shirt today. Me and ole Elmo gon be the coolest cats at the pond.

Favorite channel on KZbin right now! Just got into cat fishing and I have learned a lot! Usually just go crappie and bass fishing so this is a nice change of pace

[@benosborne4399]

I ain’t even watch the whole thing yet but I love these catfishing videos

[@crazywildman23gaming82]

I would love to spend a day catfishing with the legendary fishing machine also known as Richard

[@taylorharbin3948]

Since he doesn’t eat then he would probably let you keep them, lol.

Richard's antics are the best. Always have me cracking up 😂.

Great videos, me and my 2 year old watch you every day. He gets so excited watching you catch fish. He loves the crappie and big cat videos.

Great video Mr. Gene ! My kids and I love watching your videos.

You gotta luv mean Gene the fishing machine....tons of know how and techniques...tons of humor and good fun....best freshwater show on..

[@tlemoine1335]

Love your videos Richard. You are obviously a great fisherman, but I think you're an even better human being. In my mind, you are what fishing is all about. The love of the sport, and the passing on of your love and knowledge of fishing to others, exceptional man! God bless and keep those videos coming.

[@jeremystanton382]

A lot of people tell me I'm the best fisherman they've ever seen, and as bad as my pride doesn't want me to say this,vyou are the best fisherman I've ever seen. Mainly because of the variety of species and techniques you excel in. 👍

[@AlexKashner]

Thank you Richard for making a point to say that fish of that size need to be supported from the back when being handled! So many people want that hold from the jaw photo but don’t think of what it’s doing to that fish. Thank you for spreading good information and good content !

[@okieoutdoors5812]

Fish:fighting for its life, Richard: "quit, quit" fish: "alright I'm gonna quit" 🤣

[@ut000bs]

It works so well for him I've started doing it myself. You'd be surprised how well it works on many different things. 😉👍

[@GUNZUPMUSIC]

I rolled the living hell out of my ankle. I’ve been down for four days now. These videos get me excited to get back on the lake, when I heal. Thanks Richard. I appreciate the content.

Nico Hamblin oh man, he’s freakin hilarious.. The first video I ever seen I thought he was some drunk acting like a fool in the parking lot by the river. Then he went and caught about 30 blue gill in just a few minutes. I was hooked on the channel ever since.

[@nicohamblin7718]

Man I’m telling you. The amount of quality information he gives you in such a short amount of time is amazing. I love catching catfish and bluegill. He’s the best for advice

[@DavidPT40]

Hi Gene. I like that you practice catch and release and try to keep the fish healthy.

Nice weather..

This place is beautiful has big fish Congratulations your fishing was incredible, you have good fishing equipment👍🎣😊.

[@ryanfloyd1]

How funny, I was watching some of your videos about cat fishing with bluegill earlier today. I've never been catfishing really but I have the tackle and equipment to do it. I just got in a little bit ago, had a 50+ pound flathead break me off. Came home, and saw you had posted another video doing the same thing. Thanks for putting out great content. I'd love to get a chance to catch some cats with you. Bass and crappie and sandbass are all I've ever really fished for until now.

[@kickurbass5496]

God I love these live bait videos. And all your content. Thank you sir

[@seanohara4236]

Love watching you fish richard. I just started watching ya a a few months ago. It's a great channel I'd reccomend it to anyone, your very entertaining and very educational. I'm a live bait kinda fella love to see someone else use blue gill. Where I'm from live bait isn't used very much.

Good morning Gene the man fishing machine. Boom fish on! You are the man! I look forward to your vids weekly. Keep up the great work. God bless more.

I could have hooked you up with enough bait for 5yrs today if you were my neighbor here in Arkansas Richard. Our 6 acre pond turned over this morning and we had small bream/ crappie all over the pond at the top of the water gasping for air. But I managed to save around 100 catfish so we’re going to have one heck of a fish fry! Woo! Lol
