CATCHING ALIEN FISH For BACKYARD POND CLEANING!

I must’ve cut out like 50 failed attempts at catching a pleco… Was a rough one today🤣

They are most likly the hardest fish to stag because they are wearing amour

Hahahah wiked tho bro ! Monster pleco !! Holyfishballs

[@quirkya909]

Do you have any stingrays? Fresh or salt water? Would you want stingrays

[@GibbonLord]

I recommend cucumber as bait for plecos.

You definitely should put 3 to 4 inch pebbles in the pool pond to cover floor. it would help with building micro organisms to get established and the biomechanics of nutrients in the pond. It would also help the pond stay clearer and help with having a spike in ammonia... etc

[@DEanimesDE]

its so weird i see so many sterile tanks. Such a sad life for these fish...

[@P4hko]

Pretty sure there's plenty of bacterias to go around in a big pond like that outside in the heat and don't think he is pulling water out just adding. Also big plecos like that will have much easier time eating on a bare bottom then on small pebbles, big chance they will just eat on the sides and just trim off the bottom when the algie grows to tall.

[@mickehaglund4119]

So cool to see you catch plecos. I don’t see the point for fish stores in Florida, you can just go out and catch anything. Over here in Sweden, we easily would pay over 100 bucks for a pleco that size. I vote for no sand in the pond. Looks better when it’s all clean at the bottom!

[@niceverden9313]

Here in Australia a 4cm pleco is about $70. One that size would be 4 to 5 hundred

[@fitrawardhana3895]

In my town you can get pleco about 5 cm just for 1 bucks

Yes pebble should like awesome Bobby. And you were lucky to stag 2 of the them. They are wearing amour man lol. God bless you Bobby and your family....🙏❤🙏❤🙏😀🙂😊

[@EliasFishroom]

the plecos are a really cool fish but they actually don't eat much algae at all. if you want to have a clean pond either try a few bristlenose plecos in there or maybe try some MANUAL LABOR!

[@invaderjoshua6280]

Common plecos do eat algae and a lot of it. They also eat other stuff though to. But that didn’t mean they won’t eat the algae.

[@EliasFishroom]

@@invaderjoshua6280 I think you are getting confused with the sailfin Pleco which looks very similar and eat some more algae than commons. Most large plecos will just graze on algae while their main diet is either wood or meat. If you want to have a clean pond, the best thing to do is to get better filtration, clean it your self, or just let it be. Just because a pond looks dirty doesn't mean that it's bad. As long as you maintain good water quality, you have a healthy pond. Most rivers and lakes in nature have some mud and things on the bottom.

[@johnmeszaros3827]

Naturalize all ponds if possible . Best ti give the fish something they had in their natural world. I enjoy your site and love of fish. Cleaning out those grocery carts makes you tops for cleaning the environment as well.

[@thesykotikone]

I had a pet Pleco for my tropical freshwater tank. Got it at the pet shop for like $30. The time it grew too big for my tank I sold it back to the store for $300.

[@dontmindmyname1234]

Ok cool

[@robertreed175]

This video is hilarious. First off, walking past the no fishing sign - 'Merica! Zero fs given. The howler monkey insert was perfect as you're trying to be quiet - good luck with that. Your version of mad is pretty calm compared to mine. Calm cool and collected - stay frosty bro.

[@jasonm7973]

2:36 "please no fishing" lol

[@reggieregan8675]

A casting net would really help you with plecos.

[@bibinvarghese413]

Look at the message on the right side of him *plesee no fishing 😂

[@Howwerelivingfishing]

Pebbles will make the pond less easy to clean compared to a bare bottom, not necessary to add in but could look good if you decide to.

[@GoldenDragon902]

the 7:04 caught me laughing dude what a good one hahahahah😂😂😂😂

[@thiswildridecalledlife9194]

Tie a sparkplug trailing behind your triple hook. In a manner it pulls the hook straight when pulled. It will give you better hook set. We used to call it spark plug fishing. When we would snag salmon.

[@Sebecean]

Plecos love wood it's part of their diet in the wild. They are found by the dozens on fallen trees.

[@noddy176]

They do love the wood to shelter in, but they actually NEED the tannins from the wood to digest their food.

[@user-uq4ly6fp6m]

they're omnivorous btw; had our pleco chase and feed off the side of my parrot fish, so keep an eye out after all the algae is gone.

[@Sebecean]

Try dropping sliced cucumber or kale in the tank at night.

[@user-uq4ly6fp6m]

@@Sebecean was a couple years back when we were ignorant about them just being algee eaters lol. algae wafers, sliced cucumbers, sinking pellets, they'll eat pretty much everything, they should be fine aslong as they get a balanced-ish diet.

[@Sebecean]

​@@user-uq4ly6fp6m "lol"? 40 years in hobby. Giving any animal foods that it wants to eat delivers better results. Plecos can get most of what they need from the rando feedings of protein rich foods fed to the rest of the fish. [tubifex live or frozen wont last long in tanks with Pleco] Adding bog wood and plant fiber usually reduces the bad behavior. "so keep an eye out after all the algae is gone." sounds like you observed that already. Strange you'd discount it.

[@martindavies2126]

Mine would eat prawns

[@stayathomecichlidmom3579]

They also can become extremely territorial and nasty as they age. My largest L330 (full spot watermelon) lives in a 220g with a breeding pair of Oscars. Getting ready to move him because of the territory wars. My L091 (3 beacon) cleared out my tropical fish tank.

[@marcoscastillo1650]

I know its an old video but man what a great video!!! ❤❤❤❤ thanks for being v nice to my buddies!!! 😊 do u still have those two plecos????

[@baum8981]

Since plecos will eat pretty much anything, including plants and fish, im somewhat sure you could catch them with small enough pieces of bait Also pepples in the pool pond sounds good :)

[@calallen8786]

Lol you can snag them but never caught them on bait yet.

[@jtlynn1928]

Was that a NO FISHING sign?🤔😂😂😂😂😂💪🏽😎

[@ProDMiner]

hey man I am 35 , and you got me , and a bunch of my buddies to get back at it! I made a giant fishing trap, but its designed for shallow I can catch bait fish with it all day everyday!

[@JGDirtySouth8]

Get a nice 125 gal and fill the bottom with sand, and fake coral... stock it up heavily with African chiclids (its best to have alot of fish schooling so bullying is hard for certain ones), frontosas, ob peacocks, mbunas, albino firefish, demasoni (super mean) etc you'll be surprised 2 see how many people think it's salt water lol. The colors are amazing!

[@pamelafox5882]

Pebbles will promote more spaces for bacteria. As long as you have a really good filter to help with it then pebbles will be awesome. BTW, I know where you can get some ... The one's dumped at the lake. Save some $$$

[@healdiseasenow]

When y'all put a new fish in the pond, it's like a new guy coming to jail... The small ones get ate alive the big ones just kind of 👀 each other and don't say nothing 🤨🤨

[@JustBaileey]

I thought the new guy is the one that gets eaten lol

Yes put some pebbles in that pond

[@WhiteMike305]

Awesome video bro

[@stayathomecichlidmom3579]

The plecos with the orange could be L091 Three Beacon or at least a hybrid. I have one, they are a river species that eat a variety of food.

[@toweringhorse2054]

Plecos, especially commons such as the ones you caught need veggies, a steady supply of protein, and algae to have a balanced diet. They need wood to rasp on to digest food as well. They’re invasive as fuck in Florida though so good on you for removing them from the pond. It’s completely insane that you can go and catch them from normal bodies of water there.

[@stephenorourke2297]

Liked the video Bobby

You should get algae eater pellets and miniature hooks to catch them

[@yungsoulz6667]

if it helps u can use a heavy rod for beter hook set and with the bullet wight it kinda blocks the trouble hook so use sum like a spilt shot next time

[@cutepets3548]

dude walk past sign fishes on dude starts trying to snatch fish dude = legend

[@ronaldyeater3322]

Sup Bobby. Awesome job! 2 might do it just take longer. I used. To ask a lot to put some rock and sand spots in pools, like 4 circles? Way back with Randy and brandy, it's natural to the fish and if get a male and female can make a bed? Don't know if would do whole thing in other pool?? Just some areas? 👍

[@lucianp32]

You should either put white sand or like white gravel this way we could really see the fish from an ariel view I think it would be sick would definitely see the fish easier

[@Jack-wk3ow]

Bro pls go and catch peacock for the pool pond.

[@BassFishingProductions]

Definitely going to!

Saya pernah kerja di pertanian, di daerah sekitar cangar suasananya ngeri apalagi kalo hujan.. .. Pasti tidak boleh ada pegawai yg sendirian harus bergrombol bahkan ada satu lokasi yg setiap turun huan dan kabut ,pasti akan di kosongkan tidak boleh ada pegawai yg masih disitu waktu hujan dan kabut datang.. Saya seumur hidup saya pertama kali lihat pocong asli ya pas kerja di sana.. Siang bolong .. Sekitar jm 12 an.. Saya sangat yakin itu pocong karena yg lihat bukan cuma saya , ada satu orang lagi ketua regu saya hanya saja sedikit berbeda saya lihat di sebelah kanan dan ketua regu saya lihat ada dikiri dan setelah di cek nggk ada bekas telapak kaki atau daun yg rusak padahal posisinya waktu itu yg kami lihat dia berada di balik pagar bambu yg tingginya 2m dan di balik pagar itu.. Tepat saluran air yg berlumpur dan di pagar bambu juga di timbuhi tanaman labu siam yg lebat. Awalnya kami kira itu orang yg sedang mencari pupus/ pucuk labusiam tapi beberapa saat kemudian kami baru sadar karena pagarnya saja sudah 2m itu kok bisa kelihatan sebatas dada dan makin dicermati kok seperti berkerudung putih dan yg gerak cuma kepalanya saja.. Yg makin mencurigakan kok di panggil nggk gk nyaut.. Karena bisanya kalo ibu" Yg sering cari pucuk labusiam itu pasti terriak" Gk kelihatan orangnya tapi ada suaranya.. Ini kok beda gk ada suaranya ada wujudnya lebih tinggi dari pagar.. Pagar bambunya sudah rapuh dan gak mungkin dipanjat ,dan panjang pagar cuma 10 meteran kok bisa" Nya posisinya pas saya dan ketua regu saya lihat itu gk sama satu kiri satu kanan. Wong saya waktu itu salingberhadap" An dengan ketua saya hanya di batasi gulutan saja, dan pas nolehnya juga barengan 🤣 , ternyata setelah di telisik. Itu tugasnya memindahakan panenan..

[@cederikcontarini4176]

pleco coooooool

[@noddy176]

The man who described these fish, Mr Kner first named them Pterygoplichthys: Greek, pterygion, diminutive of pteryx = wing, fin + Greek, hoplon = weapon + Greek, ichthys = fish, " Weaponwingfish". Besides that in some Chinese dialect they call them the " eatshitfish", for their capacity of surviving omnivorous and can even survive on faeces from other fish.. I prefer the first name..😉

The reason those bass and other fish were going after the hook is probably due to not having much bait fish to eat.
