I have never fished bass with crawfish! I really enjoyed this helpful video, Richard! You are the best, but always humble in explaining things to viewers like me! I thank God for YOU! 😇🐠😇

I have a bunch of little rubber bands. Never occurred to me to use them for fishing. I'll never forget this. Thank you.

Oh man I love your videos. My kinda normal/ crazy to other folks. My wife and I catch all of our live bait to, it's just down right fun. I always used and Rband rigged to make it seedless but thanks to you I see the light and we catch a whole lot more and bigger fish. Keep up the good work and wonderful tips. lots of love from Arkansas and lake Ouachita. Till next time keep ripping some lips.

@cbradquillen 7 лет назад

Thanks man. I'm going to introduce my father-in-law to fishing, and I figure we need to use live bait. I was specifically looking for someone fishing craws using a rubber band or o-ring or something like that. I am glad you made this video, buddy.

@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine 7 лет назад

Thank you for watching Brad I'm glad this video could be of some help to you. I hope you and your Father-in-law catch some biguns! Have a good one Brad.

@nchemi5135 7 лет назад

Another great video thanks for showing how to hook a crawfish . Im with you nothing better than live bait. Oh and when your catching fish you hardly notice the cold weather.

@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine 7 лет назад

+Ron Nesmith Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks so much for watching! It means alot to me. -Richard

@rwnes 7 лет назад

What size hook do you use?

@rwnes 7 лет назад

Duh me never mind I rewatched it number 4. What bait store do you get your crawfish

@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine 7 лет назад

+Ron Nesmith I dont use bait stores for any of the live bait that i use. I plan a small trip a day or 2 prior to going fishing and i catch the crawfish myslef by hand. - Richard

@mikewest712 6 лет назад

Been using live crawfish since i was a kid, always hooked them through the tail. I will try the rubberband trick.

@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine 6 лет назад

Give it a try Mike, and let me know how you do! Thanks for watching my friend!

@robnot9447 3 года назад

I've so enjoyed watching your videos. I want to ask if you can do a quick clip to show how you clip the craws? Thanks Richard.

@kennethjeromewilliams1354 3 года назад

Thank you for watching old bald fat man!

@whitebuffalo4641 7 лет назад

Creative rigging. Brilliant. I wonder if I could rig live shrimp (inshore coastal fishing) the same way.

@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine 7 лет назад

You absolutly can! As long as you can find a rubber band that is small enough in diamater. It works great for speckled trout and red fish. Thank you for watching Whitebufflo46!

@JackSquat1 4 года назад

@JasonSmith-qx3zh 6 лет назад

Yes sir talk in about rite there!

@rogergoodwin374 6 лет назад

Does size matter? Do bass only bite craws with soft shells. Thank you for bate tips. Can smallmouth bass bite craws also?

@dadg619 3 года назад

I like yer camo coveralls. where can I buy one like thet? I hope they have a size small.

@jdogg661420 5 лет назад

I just learned how to get crawdad here.. but from shore.. I tried a couple days.. and landed 0 fish.. do you have to be on the fish for this to work? and how long will a craw stay alive if I hook it in tail and cast it out and recast it ect.. mine seemed to die or get lethargic really fast. I want to learn how to catch with the craws though.. they seem to get a lot better quality fish then my plastic worms.. but ya it took a bit to find the crawdad. cuz I kept dropping them back in when trying get them out the rocks... anyways gl out there.

@JohnnyBoy66693 7 лет назад

Nice

@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine 7 лет назад

Thank you Jonnathon!

@Z71Ranger 7 лет назад

Great video Richard... Where do you get the crawfish? Also do you use this method any other time of the year or is this only winter to early spring like November - February...

@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine 7 лет назад

I catch the crawfish with a crawfish trap. You can use this technique any time, its very productive. Thank you for watching z71 ranger!

@george5697 Год назад

Could i use a circle hook instead? What do you think?

@spinkard7777 6 лет назад

Have you ever fished pickwick lake or Wilson lake in northwest alabama

@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine 6 лет назад

@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine 6 лет назад

Thank you for watching Axe Man and old Guy Fishin!!

@bryanreid967 7 лет назад

I've never fished with live crawdads but I always wondered, if I did, how would be a better way to rig them than through the tail. That is awesome Gene! Just so I'm clear though...no weight, just the hook and crawfish, free line it? And I guess the rods I use for my drop shot and shakey heads will work?

@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine 7 лет назад

+Bryan Reid Thats right, no weight the crawfish will go 15ft deep quick just by flipping its tail. And your shakey head rod will work perfect!

@bryanreid967 7 лет назад

Thanks again. I used to work for Guntersville Fire Department but moved to Atlanta in 1991 and just started fishing again. I fished a little FD tourney on Weiss last year and got a reminder how quick that lake can get shallow on a man!

@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine 7 лет назад

+Bryan Reid I know what you mean about a weiss lake it can be dangerous. Glad i could be of some help to you if you ever need anything else let me know!

@westtexasdave2140 5 лет назад

We need a video on how to catch the crawfish please. I’m from Ky. When it gets cold the crawfish in my area seem to disappear

@michaelfear8988 7 лет назад

Richard Im in your area where u getting live crawfish ? Im willing to buy them or catch them Thank u

@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine 7 лет назад

I Usually catch them in creeks with crawfish traps. Thanks for watching Michael!

@michaelfear8988 7 лет назад

Thank u for your timely reply . I love your videos my friend Mike

@rcagle123 7 лет назад

Live crawfish...best live bait in my opinion. Elmer said you kept taking the rod out of his hands when you got a fish on lol.

@rcagle123 7 лет назад

...when he got a fish on.

@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine 7 лет назад

They sure do make for some good bait! you got that right! However Elmer tells fish tells to make himself look big! lol Thanks for watching rcagle123!

@poorfolks1 3 года назад

Where you getting crayfish in cold weather

@mrsvoy 7 лет назад

Thank you. That was very informative. It's given me a new way to hook those smaller and softer shell crawfish. I usually just hook them in the pointy shell between the eyes. However, sometimes, I would feel the bite but the crawfish would be stolen before I could set the hook. Do you ever have this problem with the ruberband?

@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine 7 лет назад

Thank you mrsvoy! With this technique I never loose the crawfish!

@mrsvoy 7 лет назад

Your welcome. I'll have to try this way of hooking the crawfish on my next fishing trip.

@waynemiller8558 6 лет назад

I would like to see a video of how to catch crawfish

@jamesbennett7573 6 лет назад

Where do you catch crawfish In the winter?

@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine 6 лет назад

Mainly in creeks. The colder it is the harder they are to get in creeks, but it still works. Thanks for watching James!!

@Thumpaholic 6 лет назад

Where do u find ur crawdaddies? Hunt them urself?

@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine 6 лет назад

I do. I look for creeks and small branches, that are rocky.

@Austin_Hart 5 лет назад

I sure wish you'd do a video on how to hunt these guys. I grab the odd few when I cast for minnows in local streams and creeks. However, I don't know how to really hunt for them. I would like to be able to target them.

@Lemonpepperclub 2 года назад

Isn’t it better the fish don’t potentially eat rubber though? I mean I know fake bait also poses the same issue but yeah idk i just love nature much love tho keep up the fire content sir respect for any angler sharing tips!

@aliasfred 6 лет назад

If the crawfish survives being in a bass' mouth, why do you not use the same craw again?

@RichardGeneTheFishingMachine 6 лет назад

If I have enough crawfish, I will let them go back if they survive after i catch one fish with them. It's just my thank you to them! LOL Thank you for watching Larry
