    RG, my sister lives on 75 between Painter and Albertville, and I hope to be visiting her in July.
    I certainly would love to meet you, but I know that is most likely not possible but I'm gonna buy my
    docs to fish the Tennessee......"Cause It's Good Fer Me"!!!
    Love your videos, they have helped my Crappie fishing immensly here in Upstate South Carolina.
    I grew up in DeKalb county and have many good memories of N/E Alabama.
    Keep em coming maybe we'll see ya out there one day.
    God bless. Yours truly, Terry Gibbs.
    BTW, my best catch at my favorite location was 14" just last week.Slab tail pearl with blue flakes in medium clear water and in the
    boil of the locks.

    Richard love your videos , very entertaining, you are very lucky to have the great weather to fish at least 12 months out of the year , but for me up north , we are lucky if we have 6-8 months that we can fish so I have to take time to view you videos will I am having cabin fever , because of the weather up north , anyway. Enjoy what you do ok.

    Thanks for such nice videos and for sharing your wealth of knowledge with us. I watched three videos and kept being disappointed when you mentioned Elmer could not come today. Hair transplant got me good. But when you said he had to go to Walmart for boots I finally figured it out. No one would do that over fishing. Lol. I guess I am a bit slow, buddy. 😅

  • @dennissmathers898
    @dennissmathers898 4 роки тому

    A respectful question. If you are on a catch and release trip, have you considered de-barbing your jig hook? I have started doing that for crappie and bass. My catch totals have not been affected and I find it WAY easier to remove the hook without damage. sometimes i dont even have to handle the fish just shake the line a bit and off they go!

    Mr. Richard, with the knowledge you have, you could start an online college. start thinking about it. And as funny as you get I think you could have given Red Skelton a run for his money. I especially watch you most of the time now because of the wealth of information you have. I've watched a lot of guys fishing on youtube, but there are a couple of places (when I can get the money to do it because I'm on disability) I would love to take you. You would really love it. Well my friend I have to go. Blessings to you, Mamma Sue, and Boom Dog. Bishop Kirby
