Same. Been here since way back I think he should be 3 million but if I'm not mistaken he's got more than bill dance and I believe he deserves that. Richard is by far the Greatest fisherman ever. You know I heard that he can pour out a bottled water and get 2 crappie and a flathead out of the puddle. The man is a machine wooooo 😅

@@jonboatmorava9115 Honestly I think the only reason he’s not over a million subscribers is because he doesn’t do social media… But I kinda like it that way. You attract a lot of unwanted attention that way. I live about an hour and a half from Geraldine Alabama where he lives and I went riding and looked at Guntersville lake. It looks freaking awesome! I live like 20 minutes from Chickamauga lake which is like one of the best lakes in the United States right now. So I’ve never fished Guntersville but it’s definitely on my to do list… lol That’s the place to be for monster flatheads though.

Very knowledgeable angler and undoubtedly a fishing machine. From knots too tie to baits and hacks Ive learned it all hear I'm in the south Georgia area Richard gene we should meet up and lower some water levels!

..”I have lowered water levels with the amount of fish that I caught “.. Legendary ‼️ Woo…..I said WOOOOO‼️

RICHARD GENE THE FISHING MACHINE‼️ 🗣 WOOOOO❗️❕

My late friend and fishing buddy, Billy, introduced me to the green pumpkin green lizard when we fished the local rivers here in eastern NC. He was a well seasoned bass fisherman in this area. We caught many a bass in all seasons with it. We used mail weights in the head I sent him off with one in his shirt pocket.‘I still use them in our favorite fishing spots. Thanks Billy.

How long is the flora carbon line do you have when you're fishing in creeks?

You are so right Richard. Never leave fish to find fish!! Some beautiful spots Richard!! LIVE FOR THE THUMP MY FRIEND!!

Amazing video Richard!!! Appreciate you taking time to give awesome tips and techniques in your videos!!!

Gene,you have the best fishin show bar none,bless you.

I love it! It just isn't Richard's channel without "this is how I modify this lure to catch more fish." Listen.. watch.. learn.. catchin' more fish is in the details!

Richard I'm right there with you. Used the lizard in the 70s while wading and still catch them today wading. I actually started using rubber baits from my creepy crawler set.

Your fishing gear is fantastic. I loved your fishing, congratulations you are an excellent fisherman!👍🎣🥰 Hugs and happy fishing!

I started bass fishing in the early 80s and I've caught more bass with this set up than all other baits....combined! Now, I've never cut the front legs and head of my lizard off, but I'm sure gonna try it now!

Thank you for taking the time God bless you and your family Sir Richard 🙏🙏🙏

Am I the only one who dreads the fact that these videos don’t go on for hours? I could watch this man fish all day long. Two years ago I didn’t even know how to put line on a reel and rod. Today I went creek fishing for a few hours and caught 7 or 8 bass. I’ve never had anyone else in my life teach me how to fish. Everything I’ve learned about fishing has come from this man. God bless Richard Gene.

Awesome time on the creek. Great instruction. I love those lizards!

One of my favorite videos to date. I’ve always cut the head off my lizards but never the front two legs. Can’t wait to try!

Richard I've never thrown a lizard but I will now! Thank you.

"I've lowered water levels with this bait." That's Richard. I believe him utterly. No, not udderly. 🙄 That creek sort of reminded me of Bull Run Creek in Knox County, Tennessee. We used to have a ton of fun fishing that creek. I caught one of the biggest channel cats I ever caught in that creek. I dunno how much it weighed but I'm sure it was over 10 and fat as a barrel. I bet few kids fish it now. It had everything. Bringing back those memories is always a good thing, Richard. I sure thank you for it. It's good fer ye.

I'm so crippled up my fishing days are over but I still get a little fun out of watching fellows like you out there catching fish. Last year I was able to go a couple of times to a pond near my house with my next door neighbor. He caught a 17 pound catfish out of that little pond. Unfortunately the man that owned it has passed away and we no longer have access. Keep on fishing till you get reeled in to the big lake upstairs.

Much love from central Virginia brother Richard Gene. God-bless you always 🙏 ❤️

Love yall to Virginia brother!

I love these videos so much, it makes me feel like I'm fishing with my grandpa again.Thank you for that

We call those rod types Tennessee handles they allow you to place the reel perfectly to balance the outfit I hope they regain popularity I own a 11' Fenwick that I use for great lakes stealhead it is my favourite rod have a blessed weekend y'all go fish' n

One of the greatest fisherman imo

Richard Gene & Rocky Drake are the only fishing channels I refuse to miss a video from. Simply the best.

I'm pretty sure Mr. Richard is the GOAT fisherman.

Richard, they were called Tennessee Handles, made famous by Billy Westmoreland. I still have an early Lew’s with a graphite Tennessee handle. Instead of wire I used fiberglass packing tape as a base that didn’t stretch and then a layer of thick electrician tape from one end of the handle to the other. I preferred the matte finish on the tape rather than the shiny. I still have the rod and take it out just for the found memories. Bass Pro at one time sold a Billy Westmoreland Boron Rod with a Tennessee handle. I still have that rod also. Lots of memories of fish caught. We fished at night with Moonglow lights, then UV black lights came out by Stan Slone. Great memories!

I love the videos man keep the great content coming 🎣🎣

As usual Richard, I feel so blessed that someone of your caliber is sharing all these insights and tactics in best ways to catch fish with us regular folk, week to week. I'm truly able to enjoy a "sport like none other" from what I've learned from you. Thanks again!

We love you Richard you’re a kind soul!!!!

Awesome trip! Thanks Richard for taking us along

Richard, I love your channel I can’t stop watching one video after the other. I know your channel focuses around fishing but if possible, could you make a video of you filleting a fish you catch?

I just wanted to say I started wading, because of your videos. I’m been having some of the best bass fishing, but it is some real physical work!

I caught so many fish I lowered the water level. 😂

I swear he gives the best advice 😮 I have learned so much from him

Creek fishing is the best, to me, I've caught many 4 or 5 lbs spots and several 5 to 8 lbs largemouths out of small creeks here in south MS. My favorite bait is the ultra vibe speed craw in green pumpkin with the tips dipped in spike it chartreuse. Awesome video Richard

Awesome video. Now I know how to peg a slip sinker with a rubber band and fishing line. Love ZOOM Lizards, I caught some nice bass on the 4 inch cotton candy.

Richard, you are a fishin magician when it comes to fishin..amazing

Been watching you for so long now. Love your videos an the way you explain things. My uncle used to fish lizards to

You are the man, Richard Gene. 🎣👍🏻😎

Man I have learned more little tricks about fishing watching you thank u so much for doing all different kinds of fish because I like to catch all types of fish and you cover a lot of different kinds of fish

Thanks for reminding us about the lizards.i still have some of those in my tackle. I used to hammer the bass in farm ponds with them. I am going to try them in the river where I fish.

This was totally amazing 😲 👏

Like the sport of fishing, your videos are second to none! 🎣 best on youtube

Richard, did you do much creekin like this in the 80’s? I’m curious what the creeks might’ve been like back then.

Started watching in late 2016 when we lived in north Iowa.. Have learned a lot! We've moved back to the Ozarks.. I hope you will come fishing here some day.. God bless momma Sue! She raised Richard well..lol

Richard I’ve been watching you for 5 years and you never fail to entertain or teach me something new! God bless you and your family,hope you had a good Labor Day weekend

❤❤❤❤❤ thank you for being you😊

good job Cowboy! You Rock!

i finally found those sunglasses and i love them. glad i got two pair. thank you richard.

Richard, I tell my grandson every chance I get.... you can't beat a zoom 🦎 for nice bass! Bless your heart and live a long life. Orlando Ron

I love watching you Mr Richard TFM. 🎣🐟

That weight stop can be replaced with a tiny split shot and a knot below it. I use them as a bobber stop above the jig as well on my crappie rig.

Richard said he used to lower water levels with his fishing and I absolutely believe it ain't no doubt about it

Man what I wouldn't do to hang out with Richard for one day of fishing! Thanks again for the fantastic video and tips.

Thank you Gene

Here from Canada, remember my dad catching a monster small mouth, 6lbs or so using a rattlesnake lizard probably 20 years ago, keep up the GREAT work Richard!!!!!

unreal great video never used before tks wooooo

U The Man Rich!!!!

One of my favorite plastics of all time is a zoom lizzard in this color or most of all blue flash that you can't seem to find anymore and rigged almost the same way. I can pick 4 soft plastics of old that i'd be content with. These, brush hogs, flippin' tubes in green pumpkin or pumpkin usually and a pearl white fluke. I also remember my daddy doing awful good on a purple or black worm with red bead spinners on them. Gotta love the classic lures.

That hack with the rubber band is awesome! Woooooooo!

Have a GREAT Labor Day Mr. Gene! As ALWAYS, the best in the business!

Great episode

Mr. Richard a real great fishermen always catching fish love you videos been a subscriber ever since 2017 and i am always watching your videos God bless you and go fishing because its good for you and that's the truth

I’ve got a ton of plastic lizards that ain’t being used. Guess I’ll try this and finally use the stuff I’ve had stored for who knows how long

Love the video. I always liked light tackle creek fishing. If you don’t mind a suggestion, when you show how to tie knots and rig your tackle, it’s very difficult to see when you use clear monofilament line against a your white shirt. Try using chartreuse line instead. Much easier to see. Just a thought.

I am fixing to go fishing too!

Love it sir old school Hua!

Incredible!

Been with u since 55k love you buddy

I would love to fish a creek with a legend like you. That’s what I grew up fishing

Good points.

Richard the planters peanut man has nothing on you. Cause you’re a nut like no other. You are a entertainer. God bless you too.

Good job Richard

Love your videos

I caught a pickerel last week using the helgamite that you showed on the channel a few weeks ago. I used the exact technique that you showed.

An American hero teaching how to fish enough said. God Bless

RG is the man would love to go fishin with him if I could

The best content on KZread. “Second to none, in my opinion “

awesome!!!

Fantastic video. I always enjoy watching you, but this one is the best I have seen yet. I had to share you on pinterest my man. I have never seen spotted bass the size you caught here, but then being up north in Ohio, all of our bass are stunted in comparison to the south. Keep up the God work and may God keep blessing you .

Haven't seen a reel taped to a rod like that in years good video

I’ve gotten to where I don’t hardly fish with anything but my ultralight and 6# braid in these north Georgia creeks anymore. I do hook into a spotted bass that makes me question my decision every now and then lol but it works out.
