You need a TV Show! LETS GO FISHING BECAUSE ITS GOOOOD FOR YA!

[@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine]

Thank you James!

[@MrEazyE357]

@@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine The only reason I want you to have a show is so you'll get paid like you deserve. I'd rather watch you on the internet and it allows you to better engage with your fans. I hate cable TV!

[@6473fr]

Thank you again, you just can not go wrong watching your videos. Everytime I get to go fishing I try something learned from watching your videos. I truly enjoy the videos.

[@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine]

Thank you Frank! Great comment This is what the channel is all about! Glad you enjoy my videos!

[@TheTennfisher]

Thanks Richard, for an excellent demonstration of the technique of back reeling.

[@pastorpfp1]

Thanks Richard! Up here in northern Iowa we are ready for the warm up and crappie fishing. It has been cold for two weeks. We are looking for them and got our ears open.

[@randyphillips5181]

As others say, this is my fave channel also. Love Mr. Gene. I'll be fishing for crappie much more in the 2019. Thanks for the "instructional videos". Most keep their secrets.

Another good video Richard , looks like you do what I do about jig heads ,I just buy unpainted , to me it does not matter paint or not , I buy a box 25 count $3.50 I just can not pay same price or more for 6 fancy jig heads . to me you just have to hunt for those pretty crappie. Richard when I first saw you on you tube I thought you were a nut , but I learned I was wrong , you just love to have fun and you are a dang good hunter!

[@xandervo5446]

Richard Gene The Fishing Machine I went to lake Lanier use the same technique you are using but I must be doing something wrong because I caught 5 bass 8 bluegills and one 15lbs turtle. I did not catch any crappie. I got a few bite from them just can't get them in.

No but I would love to own one. I've heard alot of good things about them including how light they are. I just can't seem to find one in stores. Thanks for watching Barry!

[@jeremywright6373]

love the videos. I'm new to crappie fishing but I've caught 4 this week so far. I guess I should try switching my technique when they stop hitting.

[@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine]

[@EastTxFishingFools]

Great Video

[@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine]

Thank you East_TX_FishinFools Emily T!

[@randy1ization]

God made a class of hunters and planters, and he made a class of fisherman. some of us have fishing in our DNA!! Richard u have it for sure. just that natural instinct to know what to do in all situations.. many people just dont have it, they study, read books, go on guide trips, but they just never figure it out. They dont have the FINNY genetics!!

[@thehillfamily817]

I just discovered your videos, and I'm a fan already! My husband and I are going fishing monday, 4/24, on Guntersville Lake. You going?

[@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine]

Thank you Stephanie! Unfortunately I have to work on monday. Good luck to you and your husband and I hope ya'll catch some biguns!

[@Sea_New_Things]

I saw that one line thump and bout set the hook with my phone.

[@luisarnao5990]

Great video Richard, What model number is that Buck's pole

[@SAMEERKhan-nu7gf]

Hi Mr Richard, Are you using any weight on that plz? And add plz some of the catfish tacnics with different bait plz and rigs...waiting on your respond.love your videos Sir

[@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine]

Thank you Fnu Samir! No weight just a 1/32oz jig

[@jackbeal2344]

I like to fish for crappie with an ultra light spinning combo with 4-6 lb line a no. 6-8 hook using live minnows and no weight on the line. Did you ever try that ?

[@danstewart8596]

How deep was that water Richard where it transitioned from rip rap to smooth bottom? I'm from South Carolina and I think I've been on that stretch of water you're at. As always, loved the footage.

[@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine]

I would say an average 6-7ft. Thank you so much for watching Dan!!

[@justinchittam9958]

Great videos!!! Keep them coming! Is the rip rap you're fishing along a creek or main lake? I've been having trouble locating fish on wheeler the last two weekends and not sure where to target.

[@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine]

Thank you Justfishin Alabama! They were on the main lake close to a major creek channel.

[@melvindowns6369]

Like my Bucks jig pole also.

[@MNLoveOutdoors]

Great channel. I just subscribed. Mind telling me what reel your are using at 15:00? Looks like a sweet reel and I would love to add one to my arsenal. Thanks!

[@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine]

Thank you MNloveOutdoors. Thats an old shakespeare reel. Im not sure what year it is but i would guess around 50-60s

[@MNLoveOutdoors]

It looks just like those van staal reels. I'm glad it's not though because those are in the high hundreds. lol

[@jackarmstrong298]

hi from Texas.

[@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine]

Hello Jack! how are you brother!

[@timwilhelmson8707]

[@johnmadison4881]

[@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine]

LOL thanks John. Me and Elmer ain't got no money. We are saving up right now to get one!

[@Reggiebob2000]

Hi Gene The Fishing Machine, Went Out on the lake yesterday morning and wanted to share an experience I had. I have all my spinning rods set up for a crappie trip on Weiss Lake 1st week of May...so I was using my 9 ft crappie pole with a Garland Minnow and caught a Striper Hybred....got him in the boat and lost my grip and he fell to the floor and flopped and broke my line and flopped right back into the drink. While I was retying I noticed a swarm of minnows 10 feet from me then suddenly...bam, bam bam,,,about a hundred Stipers were busting the water all around me....coolest thing I have ever seen while fishing....caught 12 Stripers within an hour and reeling them in on a 9 foot crappie rig was the best!!! Biggest was probably 8 lbs!! Took me 10 minutes to get him in the boat...fishing IS FUN and good for you!!

[@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine]

You never what will happen on the water! best part of fishin! Thank you for sharing William!

[@stevenbeard1882]

Richard I was wondering where at lake guntersville is this at.

[@adamsewell8125]

Looked like town creek area

[@addmeperson3986]

Which way do you use the rod with the guides up or down

[@raptorclaw1843]

Richard do you think you could do a pike fishing video?

[@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine]

I don't think we have pike in the areas I fish. If it wasn't for that I would!

[@christopherpitts8539]

Wish you’d meet me at Neely sometime and teach me how to catch crappie

[@DrZiggyzoo1]

What length crappie do you usually keep? Or do you just keep some days and throw back other days? I've noticed in some of your videos you have no problem tossing back 13+ inch crappie, which is by no means a bad thing.

[@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine]

Yes you said it. Some days I aim to keep and some days I just go for the enjoyment of fishing. To be honest I go fishing for the sport of it eveytime and I only keep fish if someone I know wants them. I very rarely take them home for myself. Thanks for watching DrZiggyzoo1!

[@GuntersvilleLakeFishing]

love the vid Richard! I will come up and see ya again in ur fishing hole, this is the matt you met the other day lol

[@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine]

Thank you Matt!

[@johnnyburnett9622]

[@sizemoreize]

What's the biggest crappie you have caught?

[@clydecrump5280]

elmo must be in serious trouble not to go a fishing with ya,can i take his his palacc

[@sgtbassmaster3129]

What is a good budget setup for crappie? like less then $100

[@csatterfield8449]

can you make some more videos fishing on your boat

[@dustyflair]

Do you mostly catch just black crappie?

[@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine]

I catch both white and black.

[@dustyflair]

It looks like you catch more black crappie than white crappie...

[@ohshucks7156]

What are your best colors for jigging vertical gene

[@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine]

In clear water I like blue ice. in stained water I like pink phantom by bobby garland. In muddy water I like hot lips by bobby garland and a solid white.

[@ohshucks7156]

Richard Gene The Fishing Machine thank you Sir! Should I fish slow at this time and why aren't,they eating,the shiners

[@ohshucks7156]

Richard Gene The Fishing Machine what kind of lure do u use for those yellow bellied Striper bass

[@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine]

Yes I would definitely fish slow as you can at this time of year. For the yellow stripe, I used a hand tied bait by a guy named Perry, I have his email in the description of that video if you would like to get some of them. I also used some micro jigs 1 inch grub

[@ohshucks7156]

Richard Gene The Fishing Machine are they better than tube jigs and do they work down here in Louisiana

[@jasonshort2425]

What power rod is the long jig rod?

[@larryjones995]

Richard . I have a 1 spinning rod set up for crippie 6 ' 00 " fishing off the bank 6 lb will that work for me and what colors jigs work well and do you have any to share I see you are using 1/32oz . Bobby Garland let me know if you have any.

[@firstnamelastname-co3cg]

it didn't work to good but the black and shartrus 1.5 inch tube

[@timburton9514]

Miss these old videos. Before he started using $150 fishing rods.

[@blakerodriguez2546]

Hey man do you ever get skunked?
