Summertime Crappie Fishing On The Coosa River

Folks, many of times in the past I've set out to catch some big spotted bass on the Coosa River. However, I have never been crappie fishing in that location. Today we change that! We head out to the Coosa River to do some crappie fishing! It's always fun to hunt down crappie in an area you've never done so before! I hope you enjoy the video! Until next time, go fishin when you can cause it's gooooood fer ye!

Morning Gene. Nothing like waking up going fishing with you in the morning. It's good for my soul. Hope to one day run into you on the water. Jigging vertical structure is my favorite way to fish. So it's bound to happen. Enjoy your day my friend.

[@Willy231]

I've lived in Etowah County my entire life. I've always wanted to see how someone would fish right where you were fishing. Amazing fishing performance. My dad had a boat just like you when I was young. Awesome job.

[@brodsw65]

Hey Richard Gene, so glad we got a bama man fishing on camera, you are fishing the same waters that I fish, man you take the mystery out of finding crappie. thanks for all of your videos. ROLL TIDE

[@russellself3140]

Thanks Richard for yet another great video !!!

[@jeffyoung2089]

Enjoyed the fishing trip!

[@david1234lee]

Nice fishing, Richard ! I learned a lot from you about fishing and also about expressing the joy of life on the river. If Mark Twain never talked, we never know the waves and hard lives on Mississippi. Keep having fun. Was at Truman last week and caught some 2-pounders ! You are not a fisherman; you are a happy man enjoying fishing !

[@shallowcreekfarm9282]

I look forward to every video.Ive fished a lot in my life but couldnt catch them like you do. I like the way you explain things. Keep sending them videos i will keep watching.

[@amieengland2437]

Nice long video love this one!!! This was at 8,000 subs wow and now your at a lot more than that. Love it!!! I could watch these all day long. Thank you Richard😊 Oh and I almost forgot don’t get too excited and trip over that tackle box it could land you in the water with the fish😂😂 That was funny I had to replay that several times. But landing yourself in the water in the heat like that wouldn’t be too aweful bad I don’t believe. LOL

[@BiggCoffee]

Yessir.......been a while since I fished that spot, but those railroad trestle pilings will hold fish. Down the river a bit to the west there was also some good fishing around some of those inlets and slews, You about 45 miles from me right there. You and Elmo done good.

[@michaelfear8988]

Dude u make great videos !!! Keep em coming brother

[@l8_bullseyesolo254]

[@Bass59]

[@revtruetothegamerevtruetot890]

Love it! From REELS AND HOOKERS, in Christ. Where is Elmo?. Will the real Elmo go fishing...Please! Have anyone seen Elmo? Is he on a milk carton, yet.

[@shaqbrown5473]

Hey elmer tell mr. Gene put his seat belt on man...wooooo!!@

[@tonyroberts3360]

Thank's for all the fishing tips. It had been years since i did any fishing. My wife loves to fishing so i had to get back in the game. She just love watching you thank you so much. Keep doing what you are doing.

[@benb7727]

Using your tips and techniques, I caught 19 keeper crappie today. Summertime has always been tough for me, but you have helped me catch more and better crappie. Thank you.

[@drow8569]

gene you put out the best videos! keep up the good work

[@roger44alan]

You did a good job on the boat.

[@Bass59]

Always liked your videos Richard

[@craighuckabee7180]

Absolutely love your videos God bless you

[@jumpinggulley]

I've caught many bass and catfish on plastic worms right there. Won several club tournaments and lost many hooks.lol

[@louisfini1977]

Hey Gene, I've learned alot of Excellent things about Crappie Fishing from you Sir. Can't wait until I can test OUT SOME OF YOUR TECHNIQUES !!! I'm a BIG TIME BELIEVER IN USING LT. LINE..THANKS FOR THE TIPS....

[@vonkirkus7115]

You and Elmo have done about convinced me to come to Gadsden. Google maps says I can make it in 2 hrs 14 mins. I think I could beat that time. I really believe.....it would be good fer' me! 😎 Lots of sore lips up there and one sho nuff Bigun without a lip. I know you didn't want to show us that hook with that big Ole lip just hanging on it....that's how you knew how big he was! That's OK though, I will keep watching....cause I'm HOOKED! Good stuff!

[@kirkharrell7726]

Thanks for this! I live in the Wetumpka area and the Coosa runs through. I like fishing Lake Jordan.

[@kentburr9973]

You are the MAN

[@mikecha1957]

Yes sir, pretty crappie for sure...Love me some of those speckled fish....

[@laurabloodworth868]

Love watching you Mr. Richard!!

[@traviswheeler2798]

[@centralbears3010]

Nice Hat!

[@christophervalley7679]

Another awesome video, please keep them coming,, we all appreciate it, thanks again!

[@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine]

Thank you Christopher! I appreciate y'all watching them!

[@michaelhammett3771]

Great fisherman I love it

[@shannonfranks8065]

Richard, try canoe creek on Neely Henry. Summer crappie fishing is excellent.

[@scottstephenson468]

This the good stuff

[@wpgordone352]

Thank you so much, Gene, for another fantastic crappie fishn video ! I really appreciate you taking the time to fill us in on the specifics of your tackle and techniques that your using on each video !! Hopefully I can duplicate some of it, with similar results, here on our clear as a belle, N.E. Ga. reservoirs!! It looks to me like you get amazing boat control out of your boat rig setups. I get so aggravated fighting mine, all the time, when I go cause the wind is blowing or youve got current to deal with !! My boat will fish tale like crazy!! Thank You again, my brother!! Keep those crappie videos coming!! Wayne Gordon

[@mwatkins2464]

Wayne Gordon if your having problems keeping your boat still in the water I have been using the best anchor and it keeps you in place, been using it more than 25 years and most of the time it's free. I use a stainless steel well pump, the pump that pumps water from ground up to residential houses. It's about 20 pounds and about 16" long and most well drilling companies have tons of bad ones you can either get free or pay a small amount. You have to use a larger diameter rope on it so it's easy to pull in. I love using this. Just bolt a metal loop on the working end to have something to tie to and you won't be fishtailing again. Happy fishing.

[@wpgordone352]

Hey Thanks a million,Gene !! Ill sure try to find me one and give it a try !! And too bad Eagle Claw quit making that Powerlite Series of Rods like your "Ole Yeller" pole you tear'em up with!! Man, I would love to have a fishing friend like you living nearby where I live!! You would have a reliable fishing buddy and wouldn't have to depend on the likes of that Elmer,and Elmo!!!Them sorry wrascals!! I just don't know bout them two boys !

[@wpgordone352]

Oh, Im Sorry !! THANKS for the tip M. Watkins !!

[@timpowe4579]

thanks for another great video

[@coosariverangler959]

Not far from there is a creek that leads into the golf course right past the water treatment plant that's a great spot for crappie and bass. Go a little bit further up stream from the water treatment plant and the outtake for Gadsden Steam Plant is a great place for crappie.

[@mlt8912]

Hey Richard, we are coming to Guntersville for spring break next March. Me n my boy would like to get our picture taken with you brother.... it gooood fer us...

[@anthonybrown6574]
