Pre-Spawn Crappie Fishing 2019 - Simple Techniques To Catch Pre-Spawn SLABS!

[@veroman007]

this man is a national treasure! i hope all of you appreciate the humor and subtle wit of this man. not only is he a master of his fishing holes but he is also a natural born comedian and story teller. thanks for all the laughs and great advice. you remind me of my old relatives from kokomo IN. Richard, your fervor for fishing is a salve for a hurting nation. tight lines. ps. that line about the manicure had me on the floor!

[@markrape8842]

Brother I've been suffering bad heart problems so all I can do is lay in bed and watch fishin. You have brought me back to my childhood it's just what I needed to lift my spirits. I may never go again but I sure have enjoyed watching you. God Bless and take care

[@sethmorris3038]

Is nobody gonna mention that RGTFM is rocking red converse with camouflage. I like the style buddy!!

[@ricelor1284]

Seth Morris yea I for try that this year

[@michaelgoode7837]

I noticed it as well. Makes me want some red fishing boots

[@Z71Ranger]

I have a lot of the rods and jigs Richard uses, But I'm not getting any Red Converse to fish in... Now I like that Alabama Hat he has on... Roll Tide!

[@stevecupples2071]

Rockin the old school ski sweater too!

[@soyourwifewantsyouto]

Yeah! Nice red chucks!

[@twalters4812]

I learn so much from you, Richard. I'm noticing how you are so quiet and your every step is so soft as not make any racket. Thanks again for taking us all fishing with you.

[@markgrant1508]

The best part of waking up Is crappie on your line. Adrilligen has got Richard on FIRE!!! WOO

[@djiv1851]

Nice Chu k Taylor sneakers Richy!

[@kclemons8597]

I love the chuck taylors they're on point

[@bluelite501]

Love that Nanofil. Best thing about Nanofil: No twist. If you have trouble with wind knots or bird nests when you cast, this will help A lot. It casts better than mono and no twist. Worst thing about Nanofil: Knot slippage. Lost many a lure and some fish until learning to the proper knot. A double palomar or Nanofil knot works best. Pull tight slowly... Love your videos Richard. Look forward to them everyday. Reminds me of watching the Bill Dance show when I was a kid. Keep um coming.

[@Farmertrav]

Caught my first crappie today and about 30 more after and good ones too Elmo would have been proud and it's all thanks to you sir! Richard gene the fishing machine! Your videos showed me how to locate an catch another because its good fur ya much appreciated for the knowledge

[@blakecallahan4911]

Thanks for all ur tips Richard gene the fishing machine it has help me a lot

[@johnkurer8563]

Dudes got massive hands from catching so many fish

[@richardcash6405]

Hello Richard my name is Richard too. I just watched your latest catfish video. Great video Richard. I've learned from your fishing trips and thought to give an idea back. Perhaps you may want to use a 3 way swivel with about 18 inches of 8lb line going to a homemade concrete weight the size of a plum using a non fishing regular knot. . The concrete weight should have a metal wire in it (shaped similar to a Christmas tree ball wire) set in it before your concrete weights dry. Let your weights dry a few days at least before use. The other loop on your swivel will be your bait line at about 12 inches. Your weight will get hung in the rocks and you just break off your .07 cent weight and retrieve your bait and swivel that is if one don't take your big bait. Great inexpensive way to get at the big uns.

[@bullcitytshirts]

Nice Chuck Taylors Gene. Cammo and Chucks

[@Grainraiser]

Ha Richard I see you sporting those red Chuck Taylor's. Tight lines my friend.

[@johnnyr612028]

Crappie Kickers are one of my favorite jigs. They also sell the Go-Go Minnow which is also a favorite. Good company to deal with. Thanks for the videos. I’m catching more crappie using your tips and I’m teaching them to my kids too. Thank you and keep the vids coming!!

[@kalebmiles7446]

I love the nanofil. Its all I use. Unbeatable for distance and you feel every nibble!

[@brianmcgee7911]

The Mitchell 300 sure came along way compared to the 300 I had in the 70's lol

[@fluty0562]

Excellent video!!! Love the music! Enjoyed the humor but the red Chuck Taylors,,, stole the show 👍 RG, you’re a legend in your own time,, and that’s the gospel.. take care and God bless...

[@jsaenzMusic]

Those red Chuck Taylor's are top notch!

[@gizmocarr3093]

Mr. Richard Gene do you ever eat bass? I eat a few when the water is cold and found they taste just as good as crappie and bluegill. My local lake has hybrid striper, pike, walleye, yellow perch, channel catfish and Musky. In addition, a few other kinds of catfish that look too ugly for me to eat along with carp. Pennsylvania has hundreds trout streams and a few trout end up on my table once in a while too. The point is, I try to even out the kinds of fish I eat so not to pick on one any more than the other. What do think about that idea?

[@martydunn298]

Yep Richard, it's getting that time of year! Caught them in three feet of water this morning!!

[@ZacMacFishing]

Excellent work as usual!

[@granthenderson2146]

I'm digging the red chucks Richard!

Making me jealous here in Australia, My local river hasn't flowed for at least a year with this drought. Those fish look a lot like the native pearch species here, yellow belly or golden pearch we call them because of their colour obviously. tight lines brother.
