At 4:38 that was a gar you could see the tail

Its crazy how these fish have been around since the dinosaurs

Loved seeing it jump ... Fantastic powerful fish

What an amazing experience! And the connection you have with the river now. Truly Awesome. Congrats

I know, right? I’m going through some unexpected medical issues at the moment but watching your videos has reminded me of my love for the water & for fishing! Once medically cleared, I’m going to have so much fun and relaxation on somebody’s bed of water. I haven’t taken my son out to fish I about 2-3 years!

this is just a badass video! Awesome fish!

These fish have been on the planet for over 95 million years. They have had plenty of time to become absolutely badass.

Super Fun! Thanks for sharing!

Amazing, video I was on the edge of my seat too much!

Now that was exciting , thanks for the adventure ....

I can tell that was a rush. Nice, from a kayak, I salute you.

You are one brave fisherman to be in that little kayak with a big predator fish like that, sheesh, i thought muskie were tough

You let him go. Good job. Fun video.

Nice fish that looked like a blast

The good 'Ol Trinity River. Fished for those gar with bow and arrows on Grapevine Lake and the Trinity. They are as big as you and me.

Well this was just Beautiful, cheers mate ;)

Trinity river sounds pretty familiar. .Well good catch buddy. ...

I want a gar :(

This is O-FISHily on my bucket list!

Amazing

That is a dream come true.

great catch!

I used to bought a cute small one from a fish store, and i return it to the store when my aquarium won't fit anymore. I didn't know they can grow this big ...

You probably should have researched how big a fish can get before you buy it... I'm surprised people still don't do research on a fish before they try and keep it as a pet. Then again, people still keep goldfish in bowls so I shouldn't be surprised at the idiocy of people.

it's a BIG fish

I've had that tarzan feeling before..nice catch

dam that was a giant gar,if only you were able to carry it on ground,but you still put it in range for a nice site,realy was a dino gar.

Nice! i got hooked into a 6ft gar last sunday, short lived fight and he cut my line. But im hooked on gar now. Steel leaders and big braided line are now in the tackle box. Cant wait to get out and get a monster.

You are so brave!

so fantastic Video

Good job henry

Id be scared of falling in on such a little kayak lol

I see these things all the time on the St johns river in florida.

Ive always wanted to catch a gator gar, but they didn't have them in KY. Caught plenty of needle nose and spotted gar. I only kept the first one i caught. They amaze the hell out of me.

Quite tough that fishpole @@

very good video super

Out of curosity, it looks like you didn't run braid all the way to the hook. What was the breaking strain of the mono/flurocarbon leader you used?

My new hobbie is fishing for Gar I think there cool to look at! I mean I don't intentionally try for them it's just they won't stop eating my catfish bait.

In a kayak where do you put that after you catch it

I only fish for small games like bass and stripers and Dang I wouldn't fish in that kind of water lol. The water look too scary. Especially on a kayak too? There might be snakes or some other dangerous fish in there you never know! Be careful while your fishing rivers and fishes like these, guys.

That had to be a rush and terrorfing to releast.

Alligators are not and have never been dinosaurs. They just happen to be direct ancestors of very similar looking reptiles that lived during the time of the dinosaurs.

i thought he caught a pool noodle at first

dam what paund line is that?

We don't have the Alligator Gars here but plenty of longnose and spotted, that get 'big enough'. How are you rigging? They're notoriously hard to get on a hook and some guys use frayed nylon. Any special rig?

fucking nice fight you had there ! epic! what a monster

Id hate to fish in a kayak

what kind of rod is that ?anybody please respond.

Not too different from how we used to catch sharks on 10lb. test and Northern Pike, catfish, and giant carp on 6lb. test. Just pull the boat, the smaller the better, over the fish so you only have to pull it up. Easy!

Platinum gar

nicr

I'll never go fishing because what if the fish lets go when it's pulling and the hook catches in your eye
