I Caught a MONSTER NEW PB!!! (Biggest Fish of the YEAR!)

DO NOT FISH HERE. YOU WILL BE ARRESTED FOR TRESPASSING.

[@jmilxtune6637]

The fact that Nick leaves in all of his falls and fails makes him that much better of a youtuber

[@thehamptonsbutcher3786]

Fails make it more interesting.

[@stardusk1726]

Perfectly imperfect

[@kf4293]

Yup. "Oh! He got off! That was a gar! But he got off!" Love his energy and enthusiasm, even when they get away.

[@toddfranklin4063]

I had to feel bad for him when he broke his $1,000 camera lens. I really like that he is so sincere with his reactions. But more than anything, I enjoy listening to how excited he gets with each cast and with each bite he gets. BTW: Where does he live and fish?

[@troutandbass3084]

Never seen a guy lose so many fish in one vid 😂

[@bakervinci163]

Trout and Bass maybe call it “loosing fish”

[@dallas9795]

That's cause he sucks... Haha

[@mengher9600]

Probably using some garbage ass hooks

[@michaelbaessler8982]

Wonder if he's using barb-less hooks. I know they're required in some areas, etc. He catches more fish on a bad day than I have in the past two years.

[@jacobshort2728]

"These Gar are difficult to hook up with." -618 Fishing. Wine and dine em, bro. Whisper sweet nothings in their ear. Flash a little money around and you're in there like swim wear. Gar want strong yet sensitive men who can support them financially.

[@618Fishing]

hahahaha

[@jacobcrawford3526]

LOL

[@danieldeneau7802]

Piece of frayed rope or fuzzy yarn will catch you your gar as they get their teeth tangled.

[@BostonFenian]

That shot of the snake carrying off its fish was cool as hell

[@saginawdan]

That was the highlight!

[@henrystallins5248]

What kinda snake was that

[@the113dave2]

This is how many time he said no! 👇

[@C-Smith-87]

Like the video and fishing spot but for the life of me idk why you wldnt use ur net for the fish ur having trouble landing.

[@alexanderh.5814]

Use your damn net

[@DavidJones-xe8eq]

Shitty at setting the hook i will say that much

[@DavetheHomophobe69]

You are so much fun to watch bro. It doesn’t matter what happens you always find a way to stay positive. You missed several fish in a row but you stayed positive the whole video and didn’t ruin the rest of the video.

[@westong1763]

I want to see more content from this spot

[@davejonson7885]

Every video is a new pb or state record or a monster fish😂

Joel Burchett he actually catches huge fish though so what’s your deal

[@Apache-Adventures]

Thats just how good he is 😎🤷‍♂️

[@MorrisOutdoors98]

When most of his uploads are him using micro lures, it's a bit more of an accomplishment

[@reecemoore3951]

you need to hit this same spot with way heavier tackle and you’re gonna tear it up. that would be a sick video

[@dougalexander7204]

Crazy day, eh? A lotta folks poking fun about fish on, fish off, of thinking it’s a mobster or even a PB, but man, the way I see it is you’re out there doing it. And, you’re taking us along on your adventures, slippery rocks, snakes and all. Thank you.

[@georgebud287]

The last 2 videos i watched from you, blew my mind ! You are a lucky man to undertake such amazing quests ! Keep up the good work, Nick !

Hi Nick! Love your channel. I have been watching you for awhile now, & just wanted to send along my compliments. You are fun to watch, entertining, have a great personality, and your video editing is EXCEPTIONAL! Keep up the great motivational spirit buddy! Blessings!

Good job 618!!! Those fish were amazing and I've never been fishing for gar and accidentally cause one once. You have me a new way to do it. Thank you.

Dude this was the best video you have even done, it could have been 4 hours and I would have watched every second. And so many good t-shirt phrases😁

[@MrJeffro01]

I'm cracking up you fall or slip as much as I do. Keep on fishing kid your rockin it.

[@jimmansi1187]

New sub here & I’m loving this channel! Every fish is a big fish or pb & he’s not afraid to show his screw ups, so entertaining while catching fish. Every time I fish I loose lures, cast into trees, slip into the water or get my rods tangled up. This is becoming my favorite fishing channel, don’t change a thing, nice catches!

[@danmilbourn]

Sir you're driving me crazy with all the fish you loose but I enjoyed the video and will keep watching

_Loved this place is amazing, Congratulations, beautiful fish!_ Hug here from *Brazil.* 👍🎣 😉😊

[@codysmackdown1]

Honestly I gotta give u the trophy for most patience by any one human being on a single fishing adventure 😂👍👍👍👍👍 great videos keep them comin!

[@jacobcrawford3526]

I would suggest bringing your fly rod down to that spot next time and fishing for gar with some gar streamers, which are typically made out of a piece of rope that had been completely frayed apart. The theory is that the gar will bite the lure and get the rope strands wrapped in their teeth and around their jaw. Maybe you've heard of this technique? I know how much you love UL lures, but gar are exceedingly difficult to catch on treble hooks most of the time... Anyways, just a thought. Love your vids! Keep up the good work!

[@davidscalf1]

Congratulations on the PB man. That's awesome whenever they happens.

[@PapaPepper]

Been enjoying your vids a lot lately! Keep it up, amazing stuff and just a lot of fun!

[@vinmad6669]

LOVE ur channel and videos........thanks brother...... keep fishing never stop......PEACE

[@scottalberts3229]

Definitely a special day and episode!!! I was glad you weren't hurt! Really enjoyed this one! Keep up the good work!

[@SeanFYI]

You really gotta get some heavier spinning setups w heavier line I would be very depressed after losing that many fish because of gear

[@diplogg6782]

I don't think it's the line they're just coming unhooked

[@lcrecel]

@@diplogg6782 He has a very poor hook set. That's the biggest mistake I see in nearly all the videos.

[@frankmanning5166]

It has nothing to do with his gear. That’s how fishing gar goes. That have armored mouths and they chew their food. They are very hard to hook into, you have to get lucky with where the hook ends up.

[@rfire731]

Congratulations on that huge catfish! That was awesome to watch! Although you know you still have to go back for that State record gar we were all hoping you'd catch out of that spot. Great video, always fun to watch!

[@618Fishing]

thank you! i tried so hard to catch one, but it wasn't happening. not giving up though!

[@archiekharis4702]

That day was just not your day

[@jordangranadeno5602]

Great video, Nick. Huge fan of yours, hope some day we can fish together if you ever come down to Arkansas! Keep up the good work!!

[@joshuavanscoyk9404]

Nice video bro! You gotta experiment with the ned rig, you’ll catch every species in that body of water big or small. I thought it was a bs gimmick but it’s the real deal.

[@michaelminner4905]

You've GOT go bring a tarp to lay over the edge of that spillway so your lures dont smash into pieces.

[@tinyslug7107]

michael minner or use bulsa wood lures there

[@bradypilgrim684]

When I fish for gar on treble hooked baits i count to 3-5 after they bite it to set the hook because usually they grab things with the very very top of the mouth and you’ll rip it out of there mouth every time by waiting it lets them get a second bite on it giving you a better hook up ratio

[@chadwickchurchill2695]

Love your videos man. Love from the mitten!

[@scottflynn5644]

That was a big ass catfish,Awsome job. I Drive truck, we have terminal in Edwardsville, ill. 👍👍👍👍 Scott from Kentucky

[@westong1763]

You need some braided line bro it’s expensive but it’s strong and it’s thin and it lasts a long time

[@waynesingleton5322]

But it isn't abrasive. So no he shouldn't used braided line.

[@westong1763]

Wayne Singleton the upsides overpower the downs man. The pound test to diameter will help nick a ton

[@jakehansen3418]

@@westong1763 the issue with braid and only downfall it has in my eyes is fish can easily see it under water compared to mono or floruro and that is a big issue.

[@westong1763]

jake hansen true. I just think it ain’t worth hooking into a big fish if it has a high chance of breaking off😬😂

[@acspirit6842]

Nice spot. I'm going fishing for trout, and steelhead in a couple hours. Thanks for the video.

[@TinyFartBubbles]

You have a energy drink before hitting the spot? You were super hyped the whole time. 🤣

How could you say fishing was slow?..you lost so many,you hooked so many,you caught bait fish,you caught a giant soft shell and you caught your personal best catfish...what else to watch? It was an amazing video...

Dang, those rocks had it in for you. And the snakes. 😄 Thanks for the entertaining videos. Let’s me live vicariously through you.

[@twistednrg6293]

That snake was cool! I seen one in my last video too. Awesome fishing session, you hooked onto heaps bud! Shame they kept getting off, maybe try a slightly larger hook to get past those teeth... just a thought. Til next one 🤙

[@guppy719]

Yeah I am guessing the snake keeps on approaching him in videos because they think he has fish. I have had them try and eat them off the stringer.

[@Neil.W]

Next time take that white Gar lure you made out of rope. We'd love to see a state record broken!

[@HaZadeur1]

TLDW for those with no time: "it`s a monster"... "It`s a big fish"" ... "It`s off"... invest some money in decent hooks dood

[@richardjohnson4238]

Or at least sharpen the ones you have.

[@AtypicalOutdoors]

So many heart breaks!!! Great video!!

[@ltc214]

Keep up the good job nick...love ur editing and videos may I suggest u try using the yozuri braid line works great on small reel and u get a lot of line on them a lot of braid line with small diameter bought mines after my to yozuri beans...

[@kayrnmalone723]

You should do a live bait challenge in that creek. Never know what else is in there

[@tylerbaker8086]

Try a hair jig or something that will get caught in the gars teeth

[@Ellros]

Bundle of yarn tied to a hook also works. Plus gar have really tough jaws, so you need SHARP hooks and a HARD hookset to drive the point into the jaw.

[@618Fishing]

i actually had a rope lure rigged up, but only had one take and they didn't get tangled up

[@SDonMega1558]

Too bad more of those hits couldn't have been hook ups! Sounds like you should revisit that spot again. Loved the video, loved the "eating sh*t on the rocks" clips at the end just as much!! 🤣 Grats on the PB cat! Keep up the great work!!

[@TheSeekerofSelf]

Always enjoy watching, thanks Nick

[@ryanshepherd5738]

Tip for the day: heavier rod snd heavier line.

You need heavier tackle and a much more aggressive hook set. With just reeling into them rather than setting the hook it's no wonder so many of the fish got off! That spillway has a lot of potential!

Why not use the net on the fish on your line. I hate braided line stuck to the mono!

u shouldnt grab the line to land the fish. be patient and youll land more fish
