I became hooked on Richard when he did the video and said "I'm gonna try and be normal today, no I ain't" and then went into his normal self, haha gotta love Richard, you are normal, keep being you!
Richard I want to thank you, I have been home since the end November had two surgeries on my foot, Unable to walk. Your videos has help maintain my sanity until I get back out fishing. I have learned alot!
Thank you for what you do. My dad and I started crappie fishing last year, and it’s been the best father/son time. You are truly a blessing sir! Thank you!
I gotta say Mr. Richard Gene, because of you I have pursued crappie harder the last 2 years than I have ever before. This past year I was fortunate enough to catch 5 citation black crappie here in Virginia and all because of the informational videos you have been putting out. Thank you sir, and go fishing when you can!
Hey Richard. This is David from Georgia. You have taught me alot. I have been watching you for a couple of years now, and i now fish your techniques. They work!! Thank you for your videos, and i also want to thank you for your love of life and enthusiasm!! You and the Ole Fisherman are my Favorites!! You are second to none!!
Your theory on the mud bottom being warmer is 100% accurate. Any good salt water angler uses this same practice in the winter, too. Good work, Richard. Enjoy your content.
Richard my husband Calvin loved watching your show he found out he had cancer October 7 he died December 20 he just went so fast the cancer was just all over everywhere in his body I know he’s in heaven so I know I’ll see him again thank you for your entertainment in your fishing knowledge it’s such a blessing
Buddy, absolutely love your video's!!! Keep them going 12 hours a day over here in S Ga at my bait & tackle store on the tv - customers love them too!!!
You hit the nail on the head - the water is warmed by the sun. The general idea is to find a south facing flat or rear of a cove on the North side of the lake, with deeper water nearby. Judging by the shadows I see on this video, that’s pretty much what you have. The simply sun shines longer and brighter on a such flats, in Winter. Thanks for the video. David S Carolina
I love watching your show. I started watching you right after I had a heart attack in 2018. I was in a bad place emotionally. But watching you allowed me to get away from all that and start making the best of what I have left. So thank you and the good Lord
Shout out from a fisherwoman! I love your videos, they are informative and fun, I even bought a t-shirt! Thanks for sharing your tips and tricks, they are very helpful! I am obsessed with fishing and love to see your passion for a sport second to none! Woooooooo!
It is a Pleasure to watch your videos ! I believe I Love fishing as much as you do ! I am probably wrong, but it is a close call on that one ! Take Care and Be Safe ! God Bless
I liked your choice in rod length. My go to is a Berkley Lightning Ultra light in 5-1/2 foot length with 2 or 4# test. Crappies and 'gills are a blast to bring to boat with these light setups. Thanks for sharing. God Bless.
Still going at it Richard!!!!!! Yes I love it!!!!! How is Momma Sue doing? I got me some new catfish rods and reels around christmas time. Its been colddddd especially at night when I like to catfish. Good fishing always love the videos. And your subs just keep going up. Awesome!!!!!
Good Morning Richard, I just wanted to reach out to you to say thank you for inspiring me to revisit my roots and start small. I forgot how fun it is to catch panfish! I have a UA-cam channel and have started my journey to become a professional fisherman. Thank you for helping to keep me passionate about fishing!
RG, you inspired me to get an ultralight rod. I'm having a blast with the little guys now. Thanks for all the tips and for always taking time to show the lures your using...and how you rig them :)

No thank you if you want to reach out to me and talk to me our plan to go fishing I would love to so thank you again
I haven't fished with a spinning reel in a good 15 years. I bought one the other day just because I keep hearing the drag on RGTFM's videos and want to hear it for myself on the water x)
I be caught em up shallow like that in February in creeks. You could literally see them and cast a minnow on 4lb test and a small diameter wire hook and free line the minnow to em. I caught some absolute Slavs doing that too.
"God made this for us to enjoy ." The best part of the video!
Amen! 🙏👍
