THANK YOU FOR WATCHING! - Спорт
BEST FISHERMAN ON UA-cam
HANDS DOWN AND VERY HUMBLE MAN
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
He is at that the best on UA-cam and always explain how to be a better fishermen! Thanks Richard Gene!
Good video Gene. It's nice to see another guy as passionate as I am about crappie fishing. Keep the videos coming.
I like Bill dance too 🤷🏽♂️
I can't see how anyone would give your videos a thumbs down. Your knowledge, and explanation in your videos are second to none. Keep putting the steel to them my friend!!
I've never understood this either. Crazy, bitter people. Long live The Machine!
Because we are watching HIS videos instead of THEIR videos. Plus a handful of wackos who think sport fishing is evil/immoral
Easy. Every thumbs down is someone saying "I love this guy so much a simple thumbs up will not do!!!"
Because they are PETA want to be. That's why any outdoor videos from hunting to fishing always gets thumbs down retards. These people think that meat should be bought at the super market. Because they are oblivious to how that meat actually gets there. The only difference is they don't video it. And the outdoors videos or any videos that actually show the "the real world". Gets a dislike from these people with their head in the clouds looking at rainbows while sitting in their safe space bubble.
Yeah, bitter, unhappy, depressed and spiteful people are the ONLY people who could dislike a RGTFM video…
I’ve been watching you for about 6 months now... you are by far one of the best fishermen ever seen... I’ve learned so much from you and that’s saying a lot because I’ve been fishing for 30 years.. thanks so much for what you do.. keep on keeping on with your videos...
I could not agree more !!!
Trust in Jesus Christ, the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, Amen Amen
For micro cranks I've found that removing the trebles and replacing only one with a single size 6 eagle claw true turn lazer sharp crappie hook on the tail with hook point up works well for getting into thick cover with less snags and it's easier when dealing with unhooking the fish. Have not noticed too bad of a sacrifice on the hookup ratio either. Thanks for all your vids Richard, You and Elmo are my kind of dudes!
After digging those trebles out of that mesh net, I bet you don't forget your net anytime soon. After leaving my net at home a couple of times, I mounted a vertical rod holder on my center console, and that's where it stays all the time.
Richard the way you shoot your videos make me feel like I am part of the fishing experience. No body makes a video like you do. You have brought the joy back that I had when I first started fishing as a kid. I listen closely to all your tips and ideals. Most videos highlight the fishermen, you allow us to be there with you in every fish you catch. You truly are the fishing machine .
Little Arkie crappie cranks are some of my favorites
Thank for the shout out Machine! The shirt looks great on ya!!!!
You're a kind person Tom Kelly. I moved up to Minnesota in 99 and the first thing I did was to buy a 7' and I don't know the specs on the rod cause they all wore off. Best way I could call it is light action. Fairly flimsy just a fantastic crappie stick. I only paid $17 closeout at Wally World I never been able to find another one like it either it's it's a Berkley Rod they don't make it anymore I wish I had two more just like it I'm really turned out to be my favorite fishing rod always fish 6-pound test on it would handle four easily I'm not much on 2lb test cuz I can't see that good anymore. Anyways that was really nice of you to take good care or Richard Gene like that.
Tight lines Bruh
Bill Walker thank you Bill, I just love The Machine, anything I can do to support his awesome channel, I’m gonna do it!!! He’s taught me so much! I thought I was a good fisherman until I saw Richard. That man is a fishing Genius!
Richard, I have friends here on the Chickamauga reservoir that troll with cranks for crappie from time to time, but I don’t care for trolling. I had rather fish with a single pole in hand like you do. Back some 40 years ago when I first began to fish, I did troll crank baits like a swimming Minnow and would catch big crappie on Watts Bar lake. Thank you for your videos. I look for new ones everyday.
Without a doubt one of my absolute favorite fisherman to watch. Humble, knowledgeable, and plain fun to watch. Thank you for the invaluable advice and entertainment!
Every time I watch your videos makes me want to get out there and fish, keep up the good work Mr. G👍
Thank you for teaching! This is something I've always want to know, but barely anyone talks about catching them crappie on a crankbait. Thanks for the info!
Thank you.. The end gets me jacked up every time thank you again
I always use rubber mesh nets so my tackle slips right out without ever getting tangled up in it.
Richard, I love your videos! Can you show how to do a catch and cook for Crappie?! Thanks for keeping your videos real!
I've asked the same question
Do the same thing,put them on ice when you catch em.get you some peanut oil and fish fry. Filet em up.roll em in the fish fry.cook them in oil at about 350 degrees until they float-ummmm ummmm ummmmm!! That’s good!!!
I use my Eagle Claw Featherlight 3/4 7' fly rod to pull double duty doing ultralight finesse fishing just like this, great for whipping smaller roostertails upstream for them sweet Susquehanna smallies too, and even the 10-inchers feel like hawgs on it when they get piggin'n'diggin'!
Richard Gene your the man!!!Your videos are always educational and enjoyable to watch.I hope someday to be half the fisherman you are.God bless you sir!
How do u give a dislike on this video
Not enough cussing?
Not enough drama?
SMH😳
Thank you Richard for all your hard work!!👍👍👍👍👍
Thumb slipped, mistake. No one could not love R.G. THE FISHING MACHINE!
All of your videos are great . thanks Richard.
It's amazing how good of content your shows have. Fishing is literally.
Good job...rains headed your way...don't forget your net...
I think that was Elmos net you were using. I'd say is just the right size for the fish he catches !! Lol
Has to be my favorite way to hang slabs. Such a blast with a slow retrieve using my 7.5 ft fenwick ultralight.. Thanks big guy for keeping me crappie crazy😵
Been fishing my whole life & I've only caught 2 Blacknose myself. Good job Richard.
Hey man I just wanted to say thanks for all the really informative videos I used some of your techniques last night and caught 27 keepers and had my limit of 15 crappie with none of them under 11 inches in just 2 1/2 hrs. Man keep up the good work!!!👍🏼
Love your videos anytime but right now here in Ohio with the snow blowing & the water “hard” they are really appreciated .
Semper Fi
Great video, It's those little secret technique windows that I hold on to and make me love the sport.
Once again great spectacular fishing Mr. Gene and go Elmo
Always a pleasure to watch and learn Richard, thanks so much!
great video....thanks always for the great Fishing info and tips!!
i like the arkie cranks for reeling and trolling
I woke up to 6 inches of snow with 6 more to come over the next 12 hours. Thanks God that your videos up 😅
Brand new rod, eh? That cork is so clean.
Love your down home way of your presentations.... its inspirational. I got my big ole boat out and got her started after I finally retired... found where I hid my fish finder, but I think my batteries for trolling motor are bad or corroded connections... we just retired. My wife and I are at Cuba Landing..... cant wait to get out and try to get back to fishing.
It's all about confidence and experience, thanks for sharing your knowledge.
You are the best teacher in fishn .God be with you and family.....
Great deal. I like all the different baits you use. Never thought about a crank bait much myself. Nice
I love your videos, you keep doing what you do, you helped me catch crappie and bass, Thank you
are the BEST!!!!!!!
Excellent!! Look forward to the next one...wooo
I haven’t felt a fish on a hook in 2 weeks. Everytime I watch your videos. Makes me wanna go out no matter what the weather is. Also, how deep does that crankbait goes down?
They don’t go that deep, probably 1 to 3 feet I guess
One of my favorite fishermen. Doing it all for the right reasons. Would love to share a boat with this guy for a day, chasing any type of fish! Great video!
First crankbait I ever used, and still one of my favorite crankbaits.
Taking notes again!! I think I will buy that rod next week and give it a try! I have wondered why they jump off so easy! Thank you! Cute net ...Fish On..🎏🎏
Loved the video as always and I really enjoyed seeing how to catch Crappie with a crank bait which I’ve yet to do. Oh and we all forget our net from time to time.
That net is perfect for this video. Micro crankbait & micro net. Thanks for all you do for us sir!
Thanks for showing crank bait crappie fishing.
I just gotta say I really enjoy watching and appreciate your videos thank you very much. When I can't get out there myself I enjoy watching your videos.
Awesome video. keep the videos coming Richard
good video. can't wait to get out on the water!!!
Great explanation of a topic I have been curious about
Hi Mr. Gene, excellent video as always, keep it up!
Wow RG cool cranking crappies!!!!
I luv the net Richard
Another great video Richard 👍👍👍👍
Thanks for sharing all the knowledge and showing us "how to" in the vids Mr.Gene....cracked me up with that bait net, but you are right, make do with what you have on hand and nice ol rod...got me cleaning up some of my old reels and rods and using them again.
I love catching sunfish with these
Thanks for all the great videos Richard! Like always very instructional.
This is so nice and mellow, and very informative. Happy to sub and anticipate watching everything when I get back from fishing.
Thanks Richard. I'm gonna try these cranks. I found a cove with a creek coming into it my sonar lit up like a Christmas Tree with shad balls bait fish everywhere. I bet if I crank through them. I might get lucky.
So much knowledge! Very impressive.
I enjoy your videos Richard. Lots of good information and entertaining.
Thanks for all your advice and entertaining videos. 🙏💯👍🏻👍🏻
I LOVE them bitsy minnows, I have caught darn near every species of fish in my area on them
Looks like a great fishing spot. Love the old school Eagle Claw rod. Inexpensive and darn near indescribable.
Mr. Richard Gene you did mity fine using those small crank baits for Crappie.
I have caught lots and lots of Crappies over the years on Beetle Spins but very few on Crank Baits. Guess i need to come to the Tennessee Riva.
Good job my man as usual.
Lou From TEXAS
Great video!
Thanks for the share Richard Gene!!!!
love yea need to see you on those fancy cable fishin shows
Love fishing with crank bait caught many different fish
I love how you treat your catch!
He’s the bob ross of fishing, love your vídeos!
I Always Wanted To Try To Catch Crappie On A Small Crank Bait..All Love Richard❤️🎣
Well sir I bought that exact rod a few weeks back and it is definitely a great panfish rod. I have never used the bitsy crank bait for crappie but it does work well in creeks. 👍👊
Really enjoy your videos , really informative but common sense approach you take. As an old-timer , I really appreciate this type of No Nonsense fishing. It's really funny I have been sharpening my crankbaits. I usually use the ones you do for Bluegill , I love bluegill for eating more than any other fish. if you want to try a larger crank I use the rebel, and bomber. Great tip about the net, on one of my trips I forgot mine and as I was teetering on some rocks I lost the biggest bluegill and bass that I have ever caught.. seems it's always the big ones haha keep up the great work and good health to you
Great video.....love how Mr Gene shares his knowledge.....thank you sir!!!!!
I just love them Eagle Claw Rods and I like using them little strike king crank baits.
Thank you for gently placing the fish back in the water rather than tossing them like some other youtubers. Fishing for food and or sport is great but there is no need in causing unnecessary harm to the fish. I like that you teach by example the proper way to release a fish.
Goodin ther Mr. Machine. Thx for the Video. I need to get to fishing after this polar storm
Mr. Gene;
Would you consider doing a video that highlights you boats and equipment? I know you own more than one, and it ain't exactly fishing, but what you use to get the job done has a lot to do with your success. Thank you for all your great content..
Love watching your videos! You're awesome!
Love seeing you catch slabs
Best in the business ! Thanks Richard
I have caught my biggest crappie on cold rainy days. I like those small crankbaits.
I like that net, it makes your crappie look BIG!
THE FISH WHISPERER LOL.
Dude, I am in Idaho and you remind me of my youth in on the Tennessee river. Next time I come back there, I will pay you to go fishing! Seriously. You are just a joy to watch!
Wife and I really enjoy your videos sir. Informative and entertaining
Really really enjoy your videos! Keep em coming!
That was a nice strip ( black) nose crappie my friend!!
Never tried it but I have caught some on as had rap shallow diver but I will try it with other crankbaits GREAT VIDEO LOVE IT
You taught me something today Gene thank you . Roll Tide
Woooooo I'm talking about woooooooo!!!!! You are an inspiration and that Bitsy Minnow made by Strike King is a lure that flat out catches fish. Anyone reading this try the Bitsy I've caught Smallmouth Trout Crappie Walleye Drum etc. They got to have it.
I use a 7' G. Loomis GLX 2-6 lb fast action rod. Expensive, but you can feel every wobble and wriggle of a jig or crank bait. The soft rod makes hook set easy. It's my favorite crappie rod on 2 or 4 pound line.
Amazing crappie fishing skill Richard! I wish I can I learn your skill. My opinion is to locate where crappies are; baits are secondary important. If I use your bait, I still catch as many crappies as you do.
Another great video Richard, what more can you say!
Great video, Richard. I have never caught a Striped nose crappie myself, but I'm not giving up! Roll Tide!!
I'm not the smartest man in the world but I sure catch a damn fish 😂😂😂
Thank you for the video.
Thank you sir for sharing and showing us how to catch fish
Nice fishing Good info thanks fishin machine!
Hi Richard inform southwestern pa.., glad to see you using crank baits for crappy use them all the time trolling, and the bitsy bug is my go to crank bait in the perch pattern enjoy your show keep up the good work . Bear
