Hey buddy,maybe next time you gonna upgrade your fishing set if not those fish who will break it😂😂

Wow!! The drag on that reel was put to the test! You manage to find the most ideal places to fish, and DO reel in the monsters. I'm sure I'm not alone when I say I dream about catching fish like you. I'm basically a cat fisherman, and am looking for some 10-15lber's.

Any fish over 50 lbs is from my dreams 💀

The raw footage of the fight, makes the video so intense. Congratulations!

Great fight, great fish. I caught a 115-lb sturgeon against a 4kt current, 45 minutes later it was landed and I was absolutely done. They are impressive, ancient beasts.

I love the environmental b-roll to give a fuller picture of this experience!! Beautiful fish and amazing catch!!

This is incredible. I really enjoy your style of hardcore fishing. I am a big fan of yours and always wait for new upload. You are an amazing fisherman.

Just got back from vacation and had to rewatch this video in 4k quality, with headset on, and good internet setting before I could comment. What an amazing fish, that reel was screaming for help. Caught my first-ever rainbow trout in Colorado and it's always amazing to be able to experience a fish you've never caught before. Loved the video and the entire fight that went into that awesome fish! Looking forward to the next video as always.

Love sturgeon! Awesome video as always

This fight was harder from a physical standpoint, but the steaks in that gar fight were so much higher since I knew it was going to be a near record sized animal. The sturgeon fought harder, but the gar was a nail biter.

Nice man...ive watched you catch Alligator gar but this seemed to be a better fight ? Maybe because of your reel selection ? Either way awesome!
