Looking good Richard Gene…I’m still playing catch up on my views…always enjoy coming along with you my friend…
thanks again
What part of lake you fish mostly on Weiss.
Hey Richard do u live on the lake?
Nice tip
I’m going to put this into play next time at the lake. Thanks for showing how to do the slip knot.
Another great video! Thanks so much Richard! You may not know it, but I’m right there in the other seat fishing with you, lol. Well that’s the way it always seems when I watch your videos, they’re that good. Keep them coming.
have you ever found an effective way to catch minnows, im tired of paying money for them, they can get expensive
Another great video, I’m not sure if I’m the first one to ask this question but could you show us on your next outing how you locate fish with your depth finder? Or maybe you don’t want to give that secret up, if that’s the case that’s fine. Thanks.
Awesome video yea I’ve used that bobber Love them. Mine come with the small red bait golder hooks for brim. But I love crappie fishing with them. I had a good bit 10 years ago got in Michigan. Now I got 1 left so haven’t used been setting in my tackle box of bobbers for 5 years since I lost the 2nd to last one lol. Gave away a few over the years they liked them also. Thanks for sharing and them some nice crappie I made a vidoe cleaning some had 5 over 12 in. We got a lake being drained and if you get in small boat and head out to the left people are getting there limits in hours. And some big ones. It’s been to cold for me but I really want to go back out. But for now fishing under the bridge at the spill way there fixen to fix it broke after the flood last March bad flood. Warshed out the road was closed almost a year. Well thanks for sharing. God bless.
Another great vid RG.
Thanks for the tip on tying the bobber stop, I don’t like the “store bought” ones. Your method looks much easier.
Don’t you just love the “winter fishing?” Almost the entire lake to yourself…. without those “ski fleas” buzzin’ all over the place!
Keep ’em coming Richard!
Beav
Thanks for this knowledge! Have you ever done a catch and cook?
Great video Ricky !!
Richard you got you one of them fancy yeti coolers, did you get sponsored by yeti?
Hey, Elmo. Tell Richard I spent more on my depth finder then I should have. Need some pointers on what Richard was seeing on his finder. Sure would close the loop on Richard’s teachins. Dennis
Good job and they look delicious. I will do this when I find fresh water.
Another awesome crappie video Richard aka crappie slayer! Do you ever fish any around the north sauty area on guntersville lake? I live in scottsboro and crappie fish this part of the lake alot.
Richard, do you ever go to Browns Creek for the minnows? They have awesome minnows! Perfect 1-1.5″ minnows.
Well, I didn’t think you could get any better….but was wrong….loved the format of this video. Info and instructions first and then take us out and show us how it works….and the lens in the last few minutes looked like a fish eye lens….great shot…..thanks for sharing info and making this ol guy a better fisherman. you sure got a fan in Underground Chuckey, Tn. Hope you are staying warm, cause its ccccold outside up here in the mountains.
I’ve never fished for crappie but you sure make me want to. I hear they are really good to eat.
GREAT video, Richard !!!
Thanks !
Hey Richard I’ve been fishing at goose pond what color should I use I fish Bobby Garland
Hey Gene, great video. Could you provide the description of the hook you mentioned {rotating}. I would like the brand, description and size. Thanks! BTW- keep those crappie videos coming because…. “They are good fer me”
Great video!Real fisherman
I’ve always wanted to know how to tie that line stop. Thank you so much.
Awesome video, can’t wait to see a winter crappie video!
My go-to is a Balsa Wood float. I also use a barrel swivel to keep my line from twisting, and place the split shot right above the swivel. Great video for the new comers!
I just got interested in crappie fishing and a friend turned me on to your videos. Great information and entertainment. I have learned a lot in just a few days of watching. I am primarily a bass fisherman and I am headed out this Friday for my first trip to target crappie. Wish me luck.
Rich, I’m a tight-lining king. But when I’m on the Ross Barnett spillway and the sac a lait want the bait to sit there, I can never get a bite on a slip bobber. I think my fortunes will change now. Thanks for the game brother
I’ve always wanted to try this rig for Crappie. My Crappie skills are non existent. That’s why I got Richard!
11K subs!!!!!
My favorite type of crappie fishing I love using a bobber. Funny thing about it if I have to wait an extra 10 minutes to see my doctor i get fidgety but i can set there all day and wait watching for a hit on a bobber lol. Thanks for the video Richard and God bless.
Nice catch grandpa were that at
Cool deal
Good video! Thanks for showing the bobber stop knot!
Excellent video, my go to setup for crappie, I also like to use ice jigs tipped with plastics, thanks!!!
Another good video Richard. Good to see you fishing with the slip bobbers. I have been experimenting with several bobber stops. I have found a rubber football type stop to work well so far. I have also found the Thill bobbers to work best for me. They are balsa wood and if you watch closely on line you can get them cheap, especially right now. I would like to see your take on some of the double hook rigs. I have tried a few and i like a barrel swivel onn top and a slip shot on the bottom method. This allows you to to switch out weights as you need for the different depths. Here in my part of the crappie fishing world, brush is always a large factor in your rigs and presentations. A lot of folks use 30 lb braid (spider wire yellow high vis) with your rig presentation tied on an 6-8 lb leader. This allows you to free your rig from the brush without loosing your set up and a lot of line most times. Once again, thank you for your videos Sir. God bless and please keep them coming. MERRY CHRISTMAS !!!!!!
Thanks for the awesome videos!Im curious what kind of little boat that is?The one with the turf carpet.Looks like it’s stable and the perfect size.
I love that knot more, more, more… Wow Ali picture in the background sweet!!!
Thanks for the bobber stop tip I will use this method.
Exactly what i was look for. I always struggle with the slip float. Now i know how. Thanks!
Now this is my way of fishing! Thanks, Richard! Be safe brother.
Keep doing what you’re doing
Love these videos
I will have to try this sometime. Thanks RGFM. Ps. I hate Fl crawfish.
Hey Boss man , Here is a tip for you . You might even want to pass it on . If you are fishing with a slip bobber from the bank, tie you another slip knot on your line below your bobber and slide it down to your sinker. 9 out of 10 time if you get hung and break off the line will break where that sinker is. That slip knot above the sinker will help save your bobber. Great video 🙂
Thanks for the class. Good stuff.
Does the slip knot that u use stay in place good or does it slip as u reel the fish in…i know the rubber stops slips as I feel the fish in and I lose my depth….great video…elmo must be ur camera man lol….how do u like the 5’6″ acc
Thats the way to slip bobber em there Richard Gene. Good job. We catch lots of crappie here in Texas on slip bobbers using mostly jigs.
Great video, been buying bobber stoppers for years….no more!! Thanks. Someday when you have time show us your fish finder and how you locate suspended fish so easily and the depth of the water you are fishing in. Thanks again…..go fishin’.
