Thanks so much for being who you are Richard I appreciate you and your channel and the knowledge that you share you inspire so many people with what you love to do thank you wants again enjoyed the video can't wait to try techniques Keep up the good work love fishing
The ACC crappie rod you’re using was designed and built in my hometown of Mt. Vernon Illinois. The guy who makes them is a hell of a nice guy. ACC rods are the only crappie rods I use.
Thanks for the video and the link. I’m definitely going to have some of them jigs. They look like good ones for tree tops during the winter. Thanks again for all the good footage.
My dad shoots docks he loves it at lake Sinclair and lake Oconee he has learned alot of pointers from u he watches u every afternoon u are awesome keep it up!!!
I used to come home from work and look forward to some good dinner or some lovin from the woman...now i just hope there a new richard gene video upload instead!
Richard I appreciate YOU for all the information and technics on croppie fishing...And I enjoy your videos and how to use these different types and colors of jigs... Thanks for all the information you`ve shared... And be careful out there... Fish On
Tried holding my spinning between third and fourth fingers. Took a little while to get used to it but did have better control. Its those little things you pick up that make a difference. Thanks Richard!!
Richard Gene is one of my favorite fishing role models, I went out today and used some of his techniques....boy let me tell you it was a great fishing day. I only went for a bit but caught 4 crappie overall 3 being 10"+ one of them about 12-13 inches and about 1.5lbs
Another great video sir! Your video's are far better than the fishing shows they have on TV. Keep them coming - I'm addicted to your video's - can't wait for the next one.
Good video, very informative, Also love the way you can see the line jump when the fish hits the jig, So if you miss the thump you can watch you line jump. Keep up the great work.
Just wanted to say I really enjoy your videos, they are very informative and entertaining. Hope you keep em coming! I share your passion for fishing and really appreciate you sharing your experience and knowledge with us.
Thanks so much for such great videosI .....great instructions....you have taught me so much in a short time.....you just keep getting better......shot a lot of dock over on Lake Weiss and always caught crappie....thanks for the tips....Bren and I laughed so hard at the ending of your last video with your wife chasing you around the yard with a rake.....great ending sir....
3:33 I'm 15 and I've been fishing with my grandfather my entire life, He's a River fisherman himself so he fishes with the seasons more so.. White bass, Striper, Crappie.. But Crappie fishing is his favorite and it's become mine too... Learning to shoot i can't coun't the amount of times i accidentally buried a jig up in my finger lol. I also do alot of smallmouth fishing.
Richard, I am from Texas, however, I lived in Arab several years ago, ide make the trip just to hang out and catch some slabs on Guntersville lake. It’s good fur yah... lol
Another nice video. The "Elmo" looks a lot like a common tie known as Gray Ghost which never has been real productive for me. The "Twilight" seemed to be working very good for you though. I will have to try to tie up some of those and see how they work.
What an wunderfull way to fish. I starded flyfishing because learn to make little streamer and Nimfs for light bass fishing here in the Netherlands and catch and release we called it streetfishing but I want to make the link to flyfishing too and to fish lighter then that. And what you do is what I mean its almost like a game to feel them coming, they twist again the jig or line and wait for nibble and the bite. So light baits lines rod and reels is having great fun. Thum ups
Thanks for the tips Mr gene and another awesome video you should come down to Texas sometime you can get on some good fish down here and I'm sure us fellow Texans would love to have ya!!! I build houses just like you and we been travelin for work here in Texas and catching em on the road makes me want to get a camera and try to make some videos!!! Can't wait for the next video Elmo!!!! Keep em coming!! Roll tide baby!!!! we having smoked hog today hahaha
I learned how to shoot docks while fishing at lake weiss in Alabama when I was a kid.saw a 5 pound crappie at jr,s marina and about flipped.never even heard of a 5 pound crappie,let alone seen one.ive caught one a little over 3,but 5 is a world record to anyone!!!
Thank you so much 40fanblade! I use to a lot until my light quit working. I'm planing on buying one soon and doing some videos on it! thanks for watching my friend!
Want Crappie fishing at my Uncle's lake the other day that has multiple schools of Crappie in it. Was using a Crappie Magic jig head and 3 inch Yum grub, caught 0 Crappie, 14 Bass and 1 Bluegill.
Yes sir! Gonna have to share your water Elmo next week cause I'm coming after them oct 22-27th. What's the cold front coming in the 23rd gonna do to these slabs? Gonna hurt or help feeding? Was concerned when I seen the extended forecast
Just a simple question, I noticed that when your fishing you like to reel in the line about 4 or 5 turns before you set the hook. Is this the reason I may be missing a lot of fish?
I like to come in contact with the fish and then set the hook. I would say you may be jerking a bit to quick, a crappie will hold on to a jig for an average of 8 seconds before they blow it out. i have tested this many times. So you have plenty of time to set the hook. You don't have to turn the reel 4 or 5 times, just as long as you are coming in contact with the fish before setting the hook is the main thing. Thank you for watching James!!
I know this video is somewhat old but I'm new on here . You tell us & show us how to hold the jig .How do you aim , how hard do you pull & where do I hold before my release ?
Hey Richard. Is the ACC rod like you are using no longer available? I have googled it, and at ACC they only offer 10 and 11 foot trolling rods. Other than the ACC, what brand and length would you recommend for shooting docks?
I'm not sure about that, it's been a while sense I've talked to them. i would recommend a 5 1/2 or 6ft rod, 1 piece. As far as brand i like ACC but any rod that fits the length/ and the fact that it's one piece will work just fine. Thank you for watching Richard!!
Hey Richard how do you like that trolling motor was wondering if you liked it better than a foot controlled was wanting your advice on it because going to purchase one soon .i got a boat similar to yours .thanks for another awesome video I'm gona get some of those jigs.
I actually prefer This one. i have had foot controlled ones in the past, and i feel like you can control your boat better with a tilt tiller in my personal opinion. So i would definitely recommend the one I use!! Thank you for watching my friend!!
I got 24th view!! Haha do I get a prize. It would be cool to go crappie fishin with you Mean Gene you wild. But there's nothing wrong with that, all fisherman are nutty
I have watched many so called Pro Fisherman but NONE hold a candle to you. Every time I watch one of your videos I feel as I just a a very valuable fishing lesson, plus I enjoy your videos. I do Have a question. I am looking to buy a camera, the one you are using does a great job ( so many to choose from). Was wondering which brand/model you have. The video and sound are very very good. Keep up the great videos
Being 70 years old, I am having alot of trouble seeing clear line. I had purchased an ultra violet flashlight and found that under this light I can see this line a lot better.
