you have always helped me get through my depression. thank you so much

You know Richard..watching you makes me wish I was younger..you are a blessing and may the Creator bless you

I agree, they fight better than any pan fish. They’re a blast on a fly rod and popping bug! 👍

Gene, you're so good that the young guys that have their own fishing channels quote you all the time-that;s respect!

Well said, Gene is the bomb.

Still love to fish a good bluegill or shell cracker bed as much as anything. Thanks, Richard!

This is just my opinion, those bluegills pound for pound, are the hardest fighting fish. I really enjoy your videos. God bless you Sir.

When I was 4 years old I fell in love with fishing, watching my float go under. Well I’m 57 now, and my fishing has come full circle. I’ve fished bass tournaments, was a guide for stripers on Smith lake in Cullman Al. My wife and I fish for bluegill and shellcracker exclusively. Nothing like it. And the filets are the best in fresh water!!!

Mr. Fishing Machine I just wanted to tell you that me and my kids truly enjoy everything that you put out. We watch your videos as a family to learn tips and tricks. Thanks to you my daughter and son frequently out fish me and I could not be more proud or appreciative for your videos teaching them how.

The joy in your voice and your inimitable laugh bring a smile to my face any time I watch you fishing. "Fish brain" is a giant blessing.

I just sold almost $5k of bass stuff to focus on Fatheads(Gillies). I absolutely agree about the fight. Caught one that size today, actually 2. Biggest was about the size of the big one you called a mule. The fight is what got me. They will absolutely test your equipment. Also, excellent bass bait.

Just subscribed. You have a sixth sense when it comes to fishing. I love your bluegill episodes.

Catchin' them thar' Bluegill sure is fun! I've caught plenty of 'em in my lifetime, and boy, they sure can fight! I've caught some in the past four or five years, that had to be every bit of 10-11 inches long, and it was a struggle just to get 'em unhooked. You could hardly get your hand around 'em, to hold 'em, and get the hook out of their mouth! Had to go 1-1 1/2 pounds, easy! Have a great day, and God bless you and yours!

Thank you Mr. Greene for the video I’m 60 years old want to get back into fission and teaching my grandkids the art of Fish And I love your videos please keep them going woo hoo

The panfish and creek fishing videos are my favorites

Panfishin' on light tackle is SO MUCH FUN! Thanks for taking us along.

Him using that lightweight tackle, and only 4 Lb. test Fluorocarbon line...can you imagine just how long he would've had to have fought that great big Bass, if he'd of hooked into him? He'd of been fightin' that big ole thing for an hour or more, just tryin' to catch him!!!

Thank you brother. My 8 uear old grandaughter loves watching your videos. We posted her fishing tutorial on our last video and she gave a shout out to you and your channel. Thank you for what you do. Take care.

Honestly, I don't care what you call Lepomis microlophus, shellcracker, chinquapin, redear sunfish, etc. They are, have always been, and will always be my favorite fish to catch, to cook, and to eat. You have taught me so much about these beauties that I can't express my gratitude, except to say, "Thank you Richard Gene!"

Love you Richard. Your channel has gotten me through a lot

The gills over 10" just now moved on beds in my farm pond in so illinois. Caught 20+ in a hour yesterday

Thank you Gene .for being the best teacher of fishing an showing the whole world how fisherman love the outdoors

Panfish is my favorite fish to catch, big or small the fight is never ending! My health ain’t what it used to be and it’s kinda hard to get around and go fishing. So your videos allow me to be along with you when you go fishing. Thank You!

I love using the Walmart red worms in my local creek!!!! I catch all kinds of good fish 🐟 on em!

I remember those days, sitting on top of a large bedding area picking bream off beds with a cane pole and crickets, those were the days.

Loved this video, reminded me of being a kid again fishing ponds for those giant bluegills.. talking about fun, there's nothing else like it!!

Awesome video. One of these days you need to do some carp fishing. They pull like crazy!

I've watched a LOT of these videos, and it gets funnier every time Richard catches a fish, and then just carries them around while giving advice.

Thats the first bluegill/shell cracker hybrid I have ever seen, good size too. Loved the video!! Just what I needed today.

You are really a fishing machine, love your videos

The rain is coming, ain't no doubt... and I keep looking for beds. You sound like an old zen master I appreciate the content

Thank you for your funny sense of humor and all your good advice-I will definitely put it all to good use! May the good Lord bless you, too!

And we love you Richard! God bless you.

Great video. I love catching bluegill. Thanks for sharing.

Richard can you tie a loop knot when fishing for Bluegill and is it effective?

Thanks Richard for the great fishing videos !

Gene you da man! I have done that type of fishing all my life, but you have given me a new insight, on what to look for. thank you, and God bless!

Nice catches man I love catching bluegill and love fryin' 'em up even more lol

Mr Richard needs more subscribers ive been watching his videos for a while now and this man is a godsend to the fishing community id shave both my eyebrows to go fishing with him and Elmo all around my favorite videos on youtube and being an avid angler myself cant ask for more thanks for the content Elmo

Those 2 hybrid bluegill/ shellcrakers u caught, I believe the first one was a male and the colorful one was a female. Shellcrakers are more aggressive in my opinion, I like them. Awesome video! 💪

I don't think you know how to make a bad video! Always entertaining, always informative. Thank you Mr. Gene! WOOOOOO!!

Honestly, the best fishing channel on KZread. Thanks again, Richard!

Bluegill are my favorite! Those were some big ones! God bless you Richard Gene!

Thank you for sharing your endless knowledge of fishing, Richard. Thanks to you I've been catching at least twice as many fish every trip. You're truly the greatest fisherman ever.

Thanks for the great video. Hard to believe people so close, and those fish appeared to be free from the kind of pressure I would have expected. Best to you and yours from the mountains of NC.

I’ve been disabled since April 2018 and I think I found you on YT in November of 2018 and I hadn’t miss a video yet. I don’t think you have ever made a bad video. Thanks Richard for sharing with folks that can’t get out and go.

Richard you are the man! Would love to go fishing with you sometime! If you’re ever near northeast Mississippi gimme a shout!

BEASTS of bluegill Richard!!!!

Love me some bluegill action 🎣

This is my favorite KZread channel.

Thank you sir for teaching me how I can get out a catch bluegill from the bank . I look forward to seeing your video of how we can fish for different fish .

Gene thanks for taking me with you. I can't go, and even if they don't bite its great to hear your voice.

Good job Richard love the video today God bless you and your family Richard

Im not a Bluegill kinda guy but all your videos make my day 🙏😁😎💪🔥

"These are mules" Love it!

Bluegill on ultralight tackle is great fun.

My daddy took me Bluegill fishing when I was a boy. Bluegill and Redear are two of my favorites to catch, Up here in Iowa.

Nice video mister Richard, those were some big bluegills that you caught, love your videos keep up the good work, you are my favorite fisherman to watch

Love watching your videos I like the fact you show from boat and the bank, thank you!

Great video 👍👍

Love some bluegill and shell cracker fishing for sure great video Richard gene

I caught some monster gills last week, so much fun and delicious.

Awsome video Thank you for sharing the years of knowledge With all of us

Man, those were some great ones! Love it!

Richard! Awesome episode as always. You need to get with me on catching more big bluegill like this before the end of the summer. I have a lake over here in Georgia that I guarantee you we will catch 75-100 bluegill from 1.5 - 2 pounds if you are interested, would make for some awesome content. 👍🏻

As usual another great video, About Wally World Red worms, I started a bed with 3 boxes & have had to add another bed, Just got done feeding them I’m either going to have to thin them or start another bed. I’ve got worms over flowing.

So jealous! Big bluegill are right at the top of the list for my mental health !

I love the bluegill videos richard!! I use wrigglin red worms from walmart all day long. I've caught 4 different species in the same day on worm before. But BOY do I love catching panfish. RIchard could you do us a carp video sometime? I just love the fight in them. I always fish carp with just a little itty bitty hook and some hot dog buns. I just chum some and fish it off the bottom. God bless you richard! Great video

I definitely agree with the power of a bluegill for their size

Love your vids 🐠🐟🎣
