Using CRAZY Lures for River MONSTERS!
Үй жануарлары мен аңдар
In this video, I am casting unique lures up to a spillway in hopes of catching prehistoric alligator gar. Catching alligator gar on lures is not common so we were happy to catch some along with a few rare melanistic gar.
Thanks for watching!!

That melanistic gar was BEAUTIFUL
Replacement arrived!By the way, I did forget to mention that the original lure did have a decent strike however as most anglers will attest you can get a hit kzread.infoUgkxCbNOWAGmn6nfbCbJDmasvBq7J38KZNw2 and fish will hang on and release lure. I used the replacement lure yesterday and ran thru a Shimano Waxwing, Kastmaster, Bobber (set to sink). I found the does run deep (I casting on the flats 3.5'). Make sure you adjust your rate of retrieve and rod tip angle (up) to prevent getting snagged on bottom. Used it a couple of times and action was very lifelike (looked like local bait fish for trevally), craftsmanship very good....however eyeball fell out. I asked for replacement and it is on it's way! It was very easy to change out treble to single inline hook.
I am so happy to see you posting again. I enjoy your videos so much.
Thanks for bringing us along! Those where some beautiful gar!
I believe that musky lure is called the Medusa. Never seen someone catch gar with it, though, sick catches!
Saw your melanistic gar on TikTok, and have to say it’s one of the most beautiful fish I’ve ever seen. Perhaps you should consider getting one for your gar pond. 😅
It's nice to see so many more gar coming back to wild waters
I’m soooo excited that your doing this with the gars ❤ thank you for all your doing ❤️❣️👏👏👏👏
Keep up the great work, you're a legend
I've never seen a lure like that before. Thanks for sharing!
Amazing video! You should definitely do more of these, awesome to see all of those melanistic gar!
THE MEDUSA LURE! I USE IT MUSKY FISHING IN MINNESOTA ❤️❤️🎣🎣🎣
Awesome video, I been watching your videos since your time roaming the neighborhood fishing every body of water you could find. Keep up the great work
105👍's up fish whisperer thank you for sharing
The Shimano tranx gets the job done
That melanistic gar fish looked incredible.
We used to catch monster king fish with the blue silver rattle trap, never knew they worked with catching gar, great video
Thank you for posting! We love you
Sweet Shimano!
It's nice to see that many gars in a river,growing up in the 70's they were about extinct in most places.
He should get a melanistic gar and put it in a tank next to Phantom until they’re both ready to meet the other gar.
Im surprised you didn’t keep the black gar for your pond.
Wow, those are huge!
Beautiful large gar! Great video dude I enjoy the content a lot! Keep it up dude!
gar have just always been my favorite fish thanks for the work your doing
Great video.
Great lure and Awesome Gar.
Thank you. They are massive. ✝️❤️NC
Epic gamer moment.
Why don’t you tag all of them? What’s the criteria?
Nice to see you branching out again. Good luck though!
I guess you could say this "lured" you in for a WHALE of a time 😄
Ohhhh cool
Melanistic gar is so fkin cool, you need one to go with ghost
What's the point of tagging only some of them?

We forgot to tag a few of them. We usually tag every gar but it was harder on a moving boat.
Can't believe the color morph catches. Are you legally able to keep any for your pond?
we need a good cross over camping fishing trip with uncle farmer dad Ben from the urban rescue ranch
Let us take a moment and mourn the loss of all those fishing rods 🙏
Would it be feasible to take one of those big gar back to one of your ponds? Or would a wild gar not do well in captivity? Genuinely curious cuz that 6 ft one was really crazy!
Big gar below that dam. I fish it a lot
Suhwheeeet
You put on Of those big gar in your pond
This looks like central Texas
I thought that melanistics were rare why are there so many in that spot and why does it seem so normal is it stocked?

I’m honestly not sure. I had never caught one before and caught 4 at this spot.
Livingston dam?
🤟😊
no white bass or hybrids ?
For the people that eat them, do they taste good?
What spot was that?
I know alligator gar are an invasive species, so I guess I’m a little confused as to why you are tagging and releasing them. Just curious.
Real question is when are you getting a melanistic Gar?
How can i buy your new cast net 😢

Why are the fish being tagged?
GIVE TURTLE NAME FOOD BOY
I just started making KZread videos. Does anyone have advice on how I can improve?
I noticed that you kept using your rod even after it broke. That could only mean one thing, you keep a roll of duct tape in your tackle box for situations just like this. well done.

This river has a law where you have to draw a tag to keep them.

@@fishboy242so if you catch one without a tag you have to tag and release? If it has a tag you can choose to keep or let go?
