Merry Xmas from Lake County, California
Merry Christmas. Thank you for all the great videos Mr. Gene
Merry Christmas Mr. Richard! Rolllllllll Tideeeeee!
We we're just in that Creek just an hour ago Richard. Lol!!!
Thank u Richard. The in 'thing' here in Oklahoma is to go spend $3000 plus for a Garmin plus and the Panoptix. I like to do what u do. Just have fun w it!
My God this guy is underrated beyond words...dude is getting slept on with this low of subscribers...one of the most genuine and humble teachers of a sport ive ever been blessed to be educated by.
Yo he's actually good friends with Jimmy Houston , you are right as far as people sleeping on him BUT my dad said he was huge back in the day ......like dudes living off 1976 fishing tournament money 😆
If he’d get to the point.
He has plenty now
Video could a been as long as u wanted to make it and I'll watch it bro
He needs a daily livestream. 10am on the water until you run outta cold beer.
Great video. I definitely need some fish finder confidence 🤔
I like your channel too!
Hello buddy I really enjoy watching you and even though I’m 62 years old and have been fishing 🎣 most of my life you add so much fun and enjoyment every time you post a video and I learn something new everytime you do too !! Thanks for sharing your life and experience with all of us and I hope you have a Wonderful Merry Christmas 🎁🎄. Oh yeah what size of plastic do you usually use for crappy fishing with your jigs ?
Great Teaching Video Richard... I love the way you explained everything in this video... Keep them coming Buddy!
Really enjoy your videos , Good Ole Fashioned humor , mixed with a lot of common sense tips. I have been retired for a year now and my Alter Ego Shmo has fallen in the water three times, I keep telling the dummy to be careful , but he never listens. I was wondering how many times Elmo has falling into the water. Keep up the great work God bless
The machine is the best teacher of fishing techniques on the u~tube. Just a good old ’ SOUTHERN boy with a big fishing heart.!
Interesting and enjoy watching Richard. Are these crappie tasty or not at all? Catch and release shown in the video. Please share more information if these can be eaten. They look like they may be tasty. Fry in a bit of flour and garlic salt or a few herbs.
I was so impressed with the morning scenery and light fog. What a beautiful picture. Thanks for the post, and Merry Christmas to you too.
I just learned what I have been trying to learn. I fish hard but I just can't find them this time of year. I never thought to look for shad in creeks. Thank you soooo much Richard. You need your sat. Nite. Fishing show on the sportsman channel. You Teach us how to find what were fishing for without saying we gotta buy this or buy that. To catch what were looking for. Hey. That means the world to me. I watched this video 3. Times and let it sink in. Going wed. To try it. I know where a big cove with a creek coming in it is at. Couple weeks ago I went in there and saw shad balls all over my garmen. So thanks GOD BLESS. AND MERRY MERRY CHRISTMAS. WHOHHHH. WHOHHHH WHOHHHHHHH.

The best educational Crappie video I’ve seen!! Enjoy watching your channel everyday
Awesome, thanks Machine!! I learn a lot from your video, and it’s also very entertaining! Paying attention to forage and different types of timber lay downs will pay dividends. Merry Christmas brother!
Merry Christmas Richard, I have been fishing the exact same situation/creek for about a year and have only caught one big crappie (13in). The creek is loaded with medium size shad (4in), 8lb average blues (caught a 20lber) and large bass (caught a 6lber). Depth ranges from 6-10ft. Plenty of blow downs. Plenty of bluegill to. Cannot locate the crappie. I am determined and I will take your advice to see what we can do.
Just like fishing with a ol friend......thank you and god bless
Merry Christmas and May God bless Richard Gene - _THE Feeshin' Machine_ - with Suzy Ann & ol' Elmo too!
Here's hoping ya'll have a wonderful crappie Christmas, nøt a crappy one.

Merry Christmas Richard Gene! Thanks for all the great content!
He fished that tree like I eat a chicken wing - cleaned to the bone .... I would have caught 7 sticks and a turtle.
Clay,
You have that cloud over you all the time just like me!
I commiserate Man.
Clay, I don’t think I would have even caught the Turtle!!!
Great video as always!! Yours is one of my two favorite channels. Very informative. One suggestion; shoot your videos with the sun behind the camera so that your face is visible; like the last part of the video. Again, great job man!
Richard, you are the best regular fishing person on UA-cam!!! This video has been viewed 170K times and only 2K likes, please people like these videos, that's very important!! Keep up the great work!!!
Hey! Ooooouu! Oou! I can't help it! Lol! Merry Christmas Fishing Machine!!!!🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟 Go fishing when you can is a motto I'll take to the grave.😎🎣! Thank you Gene for a great year!
You may never actually read this because your channel has grown. But thank you to all your old videos that have helped encourage my growth in the sport of fishing. The lessons you teach in the different fishing techniques is what inspires me the most.
Once again great spectacular fishing thanks for the knowledge Mr. Gene
8:47 when he says "it could've been a bluegill" consistently triggers my voice assistant on windows 10
Merry Christmas Richard to you and your family always another great video I think I speak for a lot of your viewers on how much I have learned from you this year thanks for all the work you do to bring us these videos
Great advice Richard. Thank you, and may God bless you Sir..!
God bless you Richard and Merry Christmas. You have given all of us, your viwers, such an awesome gift of your time and expertise. I hope your excitement for fishing never dwindles!
On Point brother Richard! The best all around freshwater fisherman on the planet . . . second to none!
Merry Christmas to you, Richard. I appreciate your videos. Very real and educational. Makes me feel better knowing I'm not the only knucklehead to cast into the trees lol
Hi Richard, Merry Christmas, I must say I have seen thousands of fishing videos in my 60 years. Well Sir, your videos fit right at the top with all the pros. Plenty of tips, detail and examples. Its a pleasure to watch you fish. I seen all your videos twice. My hats off to you sir, Thank You, Good Fishing.
The name says it all. RICHARD GENE THE FISHIN MACHINE.
Great video. I haven't caught many Crappies . You caught more Crappie in one outing than I have caught in my life. Thanks for the teaching and training videos.

Hey brother Richard! I really enjoy your channel and sharing your experience with all of us. You fish alone mostly and I was wondering if you have done a video on one-man launching and loading your boat? Thanks for everything!
David
Merry Christmas, Richard Gene! Every time you post, it's like opening up a present! Thanks!
Merry Christmas to u and ur family richard, thanks for all the great videos!
Thank you for all you do for us. Good karma generates more good karma. I been thinkin about it. 2lb line no problem. 1/64 jigs no problem. Might as well mash the barb flat on those jigs and give that a go. I certainly appreciate your fishing ethic. Keep 'um comin'.
Great show buddy.
Great video. I’m in Maryland, but from Louisiana. I went fishing the last two day for crappie didn’t even get a nibble. Hopefully I can use your tips and locate some crappie I’m hungry man. Lol. #LSU LSU.

Merry Christmas my friend. Another great video from "The Professor" of the Crappie fishing world!
Please do more videos on reading a depth finder for crappie's. I really enjoy your videos!!
Another fantastic video Mr. Richard!! Hope all is well and you have a merry Christmas keep up the great work!
Happy holidays ,great videos and world of knowledge,nothing wrong with a long video from you!
I know it's against fisherman's policy to say which creek it is or where on the creek you are, but maybe once every Christmas, you could tell us exactly where you are. Dad and I fished the bridge columns with small and large minnows from sun up to sun down this past Thursday on Lake Guntersville and didn't get a bite. We had a few worms and caught a few bream on worm. Then we caught a small bass on worm and shocker - I caught a nice crappie (our target species) on a worm in about 3 ft of water under another bridge! But the crappie wouldn't bite the minnows at all.
Another amazing show Mr gene just now getting to watch it. Still can't believe you're show isn't on Saturday morning television
KEEP IT UP..Mr Gene..you Definitely keep me up all night watching your videos....
Hey Richard, at the point you were showing shad on your depth finder, they appear to be moving on the screen but the boat is not moving....I was hoping you would elaborate a little on how that hummingbird shows that? I have a Hummingbird 176i
Elmo doesn’t know what he’s missing! That’s some good info 👍
hey rich, when i found your channel, i was already knew that your videos were going to help me, so thank you! and ypur little funny moments are great! keep doin what you do and your channel will be big. your way of educating is really easy to follow and i like that. tight lines
Richard, all your videos are fantastic, but this may be the very best. Thank you for what you do and Happy New Year.
*Cheap Basic 1st generation Hummingbird ($10.00+Old Skool Recreation Angler= 100 Fish)....
*Newest Model Hummingbird with Structure Scan, Navigation, Side imaging, All bells & whistles, yada yada ($1000+Uptight Sponsored Tournament Angler = 10 fish)....
LOL!
Merry Christmas Richard! Thank you for all your efforts. I’m very grateful for your videos and channel.
Always a pleasure to learn from the master.....Elmo! Merry Christmas Richard.
Thank you for all the tips, Richard!!! Will be fishing from rivers and creeks with a kayak over the next week. looking forward to applying some of your advise for fishing this type of water.
I learned to fish from my Dad and all the old fishin shows. Richard’s hands down just as good as and better than any of em. A true professional and master of his trade.
Thank you. great to see a guy with just the basic equipment like I have getting fish. no $3000. fish finer or $2000 trolling motor , or $15000 boat needed. Learned some good info.
Gene:
You actually tech people useful techniques.
I am a seasoned fisherman learning from you on every video. Keep teaching us what to do. I love your videos.
Thank you
Nice video… QUESTION FOR YOU.. what sensitivity do you have on? I have the same finder as you but I don’t get such great detail like you? (The stump, the bait fish…). Thanks
100 percent golden Nugget show. I mean you nailed it. thanks
odd 2 c u fishn structure, Gene, when u started by reviewing FISH-TV n open waters...im watchn u, sir! great video. havva great day!...THE
sport that iz 2nd 2 nun!
Who cares, I never catch what I want anyway. Life sucks. It (fishing) was the last thing I had hope in. Now I’m really struggling trying to find a reason to live. Nothing excites me, everything I “look forward to” falls apart. My wife wishes she married better, one of my kids hates me, the other is too young to realize that she (like the rest of the world) should think less of me. I’m just praying to God for him to take me. I’m pretty sure the world would be better off with me not in it. Who cares.
Enjoy it bro.Alabama boy here too, but living in Texas. Here's what my problem has been . Which way am I looking on a depth finder? Right under the boat? Out front or to the side? Does it depend on where you put the probe piece? Keep it up. Like watching you and like hearing my home state accent .
That video upload should be called, "This is How You Do It". Very informative.
want to wish you and ole Elmo a very Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas Richard.thanks for the great videos and knowledge.
To say that the information you have gifted us with through this channel is invaluable would be an understatement.
Thankyou and god bless you sir!
I have a hummingbird pirannah max 170 and it is stuck in simulator mode. Not sure if any reading are accurate and water temp shows 78 degrees I know that false due to being in New York and in may. Any help to reset this device. I am trying to convince my father it's the transducer and not the fish finder.
loved your video, I used to fish the old river in Louisiana ( across from Natchez ,Ms, and could always find crappie in spots like you show, made the mistake and moved to Kentucky and
can no longer fish for crappie as the rivers up here are 50ft deep with no visible cover
So Richard, i know this is an old video at this point.
But my question for you is, now that the world has changed so much in the electronics world, would you be modifying your opinions in order to keep current with todays techknowledgy ?
Im of the opinion of what works works, regardless of how far the electronics have progressed.
But i might change my mind when i start seeing you spend your day staring at a livescope screen.
just watche your locate crappie vid;;;;notice had a few haters there;;;;the can't stand a little how to that works better than their method;;;lol;;;;one thing about it you catch fish and they just pushj button and don't even say why;;; lol ;;;; afraid they might get over run wit haters;;;;like your method and practice it myself only without finder;;;;several years ago;;;;i mean several plus;;;;now evjoy watchin you catch em;;;;my git up and go has slowed down and have no boat no more;;;had 3 and while i was out of town for work got stolen;;;;anyway;;;when ya pay attention to terrain when ya catch by accident;;; ya learn to try similar;;;;;keep em comin;;; one of these days i be catchin up on all your vids to current;;;;
Rich’s channel goes to prove that you don’t need a lot of money to fish effectively. I stopped watching all those big name channels because they are unrealistic for most people. A frugal fisherman can be a fruitful one with the know how.
thanks for breaking down creek fishing for crappie.
I have this same depth finder and it used to work just fine but now it won't read anything accurately it just keeps beeping and going crazy I think it could possibly be the transducer bit I don't know
In the beginning, you marked fish and baitfish, on the bottom, in the middle of the creek. Then fished trees off the bank, in shallower water. Why is that?
I fish River and it is different than lakes the current and water level change where and what the fish are doing I consider lake. Fish city fish and river fish country fish 🐟🐟🐠
You squirrel fishing elmo. Up in them their trees boy. God Lee bum. What in the cornbread hell is going on here.😂🤣😅
Lol I’m quite a ways in this creek, next sentence no further than I went back in this creek lotsa shad 🤣 love southern dialects
Locating crappie "With a depth finder"? i think you located them with crappie fisherman savvy
Holly crap.... I think i'm going to need to take some classes on how to read a fish finder!!! What the hell is chad or shad?
I have the same fish finder but I don’t understand the range scan part of it, can you make a video explaining the fish finder
You seem to be fishing the same area..... State. I would love to see you fish other States that surrounds TN.
Now I want to get a Fish finder lol that river really looks nice ... Great rips that was fun thanks
😀👍
Interphas sonar firwardcscajng sonar
How can you determine the depth of the shad..bottom was black..shad wrre on bottom.
You explained it fine. This ain't rocket science. But your tips are real helpful.
Richard I have a cheap fish finder can you please do a video of how to read one mine is just a little fish eagle but not sure if I am under standing it right pls
Thank you so much for this!! Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas Richard gene. Thanks for the fun videos
Thoset last 3 nice fish at 14&15 would have Fed me lol.and if I am correct would have made about 8 or ten thick crappie sandwich.we never get tired of your experience and expert advice.may God in heaven bless you and your friends and family this season of Thanksgiving and Christmas &may your lines be stretched in 2023
Fish I n ookemon
sometimes, those crappie are too much like bream! they prefer to wait for a bug than chase after stir-fry! hahaha
Richard can you post a description of the type of Rod your using and where to buy thanks.
Bro. Gene, is your transducer located on your transom? Or is it on the trolling motor in the front?
Merry Christmas Richard gene, enjoyed this one , as always.✌️
Richard! I am a huge fan.. and this is the best video ever! I have often wondered just how you zero in so well... and this vid takes us step by step. Great! I have a similar Hummingbird, but I was wandering if - before electronics - you could locate shad with a cast net or ?? Is there a non-tech way to find schools of bait fish? Thank you for sharing all the wonderful times!
ps - GOD BLESS! and MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
Richard come up to Lake Normandy in Normandy, TN and teach me how to catch crappi
