A Hot Day Fishing on the Brazos River

[@tealnexttimebond8859]

a little tip , don't let that weight go all the way to the hook. use a good leader with swival and a weight with a little bead. we used to gar fish every weekend on the brazos. very heavy mono or steet. gar fishing is a blast. hit the sand bars

[@backroadsbass7174]

I don’t think I’ve ever been to the Brazos in the summer without seeing a moccasin or 2.

[@OntheChase]

Back Roads & Bass they’re all over the place. Especially at night!

[@backroadsbass7174]

On the Chase Outdoors yep and they seem to be attracted to light. Have had them try to come in the boat when the lights are on

[@sasquatchdonut2674]

I’ve never seen a moccasin on the brazos lol. I’ve seen copperheads on it though

[@ADDICTED2FISHINGTX]

Gar can be a blast to catch! Great video man 👍🏻

[@OntheChase]

You’d know, with all those gar you catch. I’m jealous. They really are fighters.

[@sasquatchdonut2674]

I let out a “Shiiiiiii” when you lost that fish. That’s something that hurts every fisherman

[@houstonfishingnoob2040]

I love the Brazos river. I love snakes too thanks for not killing the cottonmouths! Have you ever tried buffalo bayou near downtown for flatheads? I’ve seen a lot of people catching big flatheads there. No where near as nice as being out in nature in the Brazos though

[@sasquatchdonut2674]

I love it too. I fish it up here in west dfw though. Even when you’re not fishing, it’s an absolutely gorgeous river with a ton of gorgeous snakes

[@sumdumchit8299]

Where is that , where u launched your yak? I fish that river in waco, but never seen anywhere like that.

[@fishingsomakuma2285]

Awesome adventure man!

[@OntheChase]

Thanks! Next week I'll go back and land that big one, even if I have to spend two days on the water.

[@Salinas30344]

I'm from bryan and havnt fished at the beazos river definitely going to try it now!

[@ExtremeBankFishing]

Why is that weight sitting on the hook like that

[@papabrown22]

Moment of silence for losing the fish 😔

[@OntheChase]

Always take a moment of silence for fish that get your heart beating so much it shakes the GoPro

[@Pj_713]

What highway did y’all exit to fish?

[@OntheChase]

Pj_713 hey PJ! Just exited off 29 out near Bryan. Pretty steep getting down. And it’s upstream headed back up. Go with a buddy, so he can help you out. Sorry for the slow response! Police academy just started for me, and my life has been extremely busy!

[@Pj_713]

On the Chase Outdoors thanks good luck with the academy

What city is this?? If you don't mind me asking

@@carlosalday3486 well actually Bryan Texas sorry

[@larrytischler570]

From that distance the little fellers looked more like diamond backed water snakes than cottonmouths. I know 4 people that got nailed by cottonmouths. Never let one pass. You are just setting a life endangering trap for the next person, or yourself.

[@OntheChase]

Larry Tischler in my other Brazos video, I ended up killing 5 or 6. This video, I just wasn’t comfortable being down in that little pit in sandals. But I agree. Normally I’m a “let the snake live” guy. Water moccasins? Kill them. Thanks for the comment!

[@Ch4po_]

I just camp out there

[@OntheChase]

kipo036 probably a good idea. Helps with the patience factor, for sure!
