Smallmouth Bass Simply Can't Resist This Bait! 

I’d love to see a compilation video of every time he says “WOO” from all his videos

Richard, you have the best channel on fishing that's on RU-vid. As the church's Bishop, I also enjoy how you honor God. That is very hard to find in our day. I've said this before, but you cost me a lot of money trying to imitate you in the ways you fish. I have followed your advice on many species of fish. Two years ago, I caught my PB of a 10 lb. Large Jaw. My crappie catches have increased extensively. I want to target larger Bluegill this season. I've been successful like many others, but they have yet to be consistently large. I can do the technical pages about fishing, but I like your down-to-earth-speak techniques...because...It's a sport "second to none." And I always go fishing whenever I can, because it's good fer me. I would like to talk to others on this channel. I have suffered PTSD from Vietnam for many years and, in seeing a psychologist for the past eight years, affirm that fishing is a healer for depression. I found it to be true. I couple that with Richard Gene the Fishing Machine and your humor! God Bless.

Your the best Richard! For taking all the time to teach us so well. Thank you Sir 🙏🏻👍

Best fisherman on RU-vid hands down. Me and my wife would love to meet you and fish with you sometime if we get down to Guntersville.

When Richard Gene speaks, I listen.....

Your knowledge of fishing is unmatched Richard. I learn so many real fishing facts and tips. You sir are the real deal and yes you are a FISHING MACHINE!

That’s some of the best small mouth fish I’ve seen caught. Ur the man of fishing. Be good be safe. Keep fishing cause it’s good for you.

Thanks for the fishing tips, Richard I'm going to start using the rubber band trick.

It doesn't get any better than this. Thanks! The pegged weight with rubber band is cool.

I fished with someone two nights ago who said he fished with you. I felt gifted with a rare opportunity even then. haha

Richard is SOWBELLY FISHING RODS your sponsor, you’ll always have them

THANK YOU GOD FOR TOUCHING RICHARDS HEART!

Thank you Richard. You bless me. My girls and I watch your videos together and just love learning from you. I’m so thankful God uses you to reach so many people.

I love your channel. You fish like I love to fish. Mama Sue is adorable.

Smallie smashing with helgramites! Classic smallmouth fun. JoshHarris of J.D. and the queens sent me over to your channel. Glad to meet you!

Richard Gene the Fishing Machine for President 👊💯🎣

You’re the man Richard! I’m loving the Jesus talk these days! Let’s go!!

Now Richard tha was some beautiful Smallmouth!! LIVE FOR THE THUMP MY FRIEND!!

Thanks, Richard, for a great video. Thanks for giving all the tips and advice. You've absolutely got the best channel. Brother, I've got one question: Why every time that you hook one, you say, " it's a good un ." They're all good uns ! LOL I don't blame you, if someone doesn't get excited fishing, they need to give up. God bless ya'll and stay safe on your travels to go fishing.

I once was blind, but now I see... thank you for the great videos and wisdom on the waters. I always look forward to all your trips and utilizing all your shared secrets. Is that really all there are to it? You make it look too easy!

I learned a lot here in addition to this being an EPIC Smallie Video Richard. Thanks Brother!

I love watching the video I have learned a lot too thank you and you always give God the glory God bless you Richard

Thanks for the awesome advice Richard. Very helpful.

I'm pretty new to bass and panfish fishing. That rubber band hack just opened up a whole bunch of things for me. Thanks Richard.

Love ya brother!Everything you put on here is pure gold!

It’s fun for us to watch you having fun !

I'm so happy I found you when my boys begged me to take them fishing 4 years back. It had been 18 years my uncle passed and thankfully I learned to gut a fish but we gave up fishing because, " it wasn't the same". I was a teenager and now I realize he would've wanted us out there enjoying the beauty of it! God bless you too Richard Gene!

Thanks for the rubberband bullet weight ped trick Gene; I will definitely use this tip next time out. Blessings and peace to you in all you do.

Thanks RG! Can’t wait to try this out. God bless you & yours! Woooooooooo!

God Bless you Richard!

Love those River Smallies. Awesome video

RGTFM, great video as always. I noticed some more Matthew 28:19 in this one. I wish I could give more than one thumbs up.

Recently found your content through that LOJO video. Im already subscribed

Absolutely winner of a video

Hey Richard the sun was right behind you when you were trying to show us the mud bug

God bless you. Thanks for the knowledge

Another good entertaining and educational video Richard Gene. Would love to see you do another fly fishing video. God Bless and Tight Lines, Anthony Hipps

Great video your in one of my favorite spots

Love watching you guys fish. I would love a video of you guys using some top water frogs in cover.

Preach on brother Gene!

Great video Richard!!!

Thanks, Richard, for all the great info and video! Thanks for giving all the tips and advice. You've absolutely got the best channel. God's Blessings Always! 😇😇😇

Great job Richard and Roll Tide.

Thanks for the content you share. I'm just north east of Woods Reservoir . Viola TN.

Richard - I want you to try that Nikko hellgrammite on a 1/8 oz drop shot with a #1 mosquito or octopus hook. Nose hook that bugger and you'll see it has more natural action in the water. That big hook keeps the bait very rigid. With the nose hook, the whole bait will undulate and wiggle around. It'll always nose into the current and look really sleek. I know you'll like it because fishing is good fer 'ya! Happy Fathers' Day to you, good sir!

Richard calls them Gama-Got-Sue because he's always GOTmama Sue on his heart.

I love to see that rubberband thing again slowly

Nice catch 👌

This man is LOVED by all. God bless everyone on the other side of this screen

I use the 1/0 EWG Flatlands Tackle swing head ned rig hook. I like the swinging head on it

Great video Richard! Roll Tide!!

Eating his buggers because he needs the vitamins, I laughed out loud, that was funny right there.

Gene, I love my nikko baits you suggested. What size rubber bands? God bless. You make it easy for girls to fish! Thank you

Absolutely love Nikko and Zman plastics

Just started fishing at 29 years old a month ago. Caught my first bass a couple days ago. I love fishing now lol

ALL RIGHT YES HE SHOWED HOW TO RIG THAT BAND 👍👍😊😊

I blasted about a dozen bass out of a farm pond on the black hellgrammite yesterday

THANKS!

Burcell ain't right RGFM thanks for another master class 👍😎🤙🤘

I live in the Tennessee valley and would love to know where this is. I would totally give that a try!

Richard Gene! May the Lord keep blessing you with good fishing trips. Woo!!

I’ve been using these in Tennessee been my top producer!! I’m talking about WOO!!!

Hey Richard, I just wanna say that I support using lighter equipment for bass. Back in the old days, sport anglers used the lightest equipment possible. Now it's all governed by tournament style fishing, and that often means skiing in bass on a medium heavy rod. But giving a fish a better chance with light gear and you'll have a better time...

Thank You! Micky C

I always have a 2/0 EWG with a Rage Tail Crawl rigged up and ready to go.

Best fisherman!

God bless each and every one of Y'all

The small mouth love 1/8 oz white crappie jigs with a white ribbon tail grub. Put trophy bass on it works awesome. It looks like a highly visible baitfish with procure a quality attractant bass will bite. 😊❤

The Msster🙌🏼💪🏼

Amen brother!!!!! Praise Jesus always

I found a Dobsonfly the other day! I had no idea Hellgrammites grew up to be something else!

Love your channel. Sure would love to fish and video with you one day! To God be the glory!!

I wanna see some Gar fishin next

Outstanding fisherman and fisher of men! Great video as always--love that you're willing to teach and that you're not afraid to speak the name of Jesus.

Where in North Alabama would you recommend I take my son fishing to catch small mouths?

I've got a question how do you tie a loop knot

my favorite youtube fisherman

Great videos. I don't know if you know, but the sun is behind you.

Where is this? It looks like a great creek to float and fish.

Richard, question. Where were you that there were those old bridge posts in the distance? The reason I ask is that I am also a railfan.

Wonder if that's where the name hellbender came from on the old plug?
