MONSTER FISH *Prehistoric* CATCHING GIANT FISH by HAND INSIDE a HIDDEN FISH FARM

This week, we went to a paddefish farm in Kentucky to catch our own prehistoric fish.
Paddlefish have a long fossil record dating back to the Early Cretaceous 125 million years ago. American paddlefish are often referred to as primitive fish, or relict species, because of morphological characteristics that they retain from some of their early fossil ancestors.

American paddlefish are native to the Mississippi River basin from New York to Montana and south to the Gulf of Mexico. They have been found in several Gulf Slope drainages in medium to large rivers with long, deep sluggish pools, as well as in backwater lakes and bayous.

[@PfeifferFishing]

When’s the update on the paddle fish? I want to see your feeding videos You raising plankton for these guys?

[@MonsterFishKing]

Super fun night catching these guys with you all! Next time I’ll make sure to bring us some bug spray 🤣

[@shiyu7616]

Predatory Fins brought the fireworks on the 4th!! Awesome video. Can't wait for part 2!!

[@dawntarver4214]

I find paddle fish fascinating and it’s not the typical fish that you hear of. Thank you for showing them. God bless you and yours.

[@PredatoryFins]

2:22 can someone please tell me what kind of Tinkerbelle that was?😂

[@BrooklynHudson]

The thing that flew at your eye? Bush Cricket, a.k.a., Katydid. Tinkerbelle...LMAO!!!

[@zekethefishgeek8690]

yep... a Katydid truly put a crane kick to your face... Remember on the phone that day, when we were discussing you coming by to do a big water change for your "pet" fish at my house? While that was draining and refilling you were going to load up my big Armatus payara, big Giraffe Nose Catfish, & all 3 different species of big Peacock Bass I have, as you were passing by during your move up there on Interstate 75 quite a while before you publicly announced you were planning on moving your facility? I told you that day that you should go ahead then & invest in a nice, easy-to-use, digital dissolved oxygen meter for your long trip??? and for any other times in the future you would be moving other's which were high end, sensitive, possibly large # of individuals, and/or very large individual fish??? Uhhhmmmm.... I told you that you were gonna always be in a situation where you would need one... and you should go ahead and buy one! lol... my friend. Told you so... you big ol' thick necked dude, you!!! Holler at me sometime my friend... talk @ you later, friend o'mine. Sincerely, Z

[@mariesplace9547]

Very cool 🤗🙏

[@elvinsworld11]

Nice

[@mellewedin8221]

OMG what a huge awesome pond, I wish that was in my back yard. With some paddle fishes 😍. Also speaking about throwing fish, ppl wouldn't want to fish around here, even the old men, that have been fishing for 60 to 70 years chuck them all back, and if gut hooked well, poor fish😭 after watching this channel for as long as have now which is going on 3 years, I honestly do not fish that much anymore. Now I trap and net and see what cool fish I get. If they are cool enough and legal I do take them home. Treat them, and then put them in my father in laws pond, cuz I do not have one yet.

[@JustBaileey]

What temperature should the paddle fish be kept at? Can I get these for the U.K. climate? Regards

[@igotskillzz2731]

What are you naming the new arapaima?

[@LudwigVaanArthans]

Paddle

[@kimcrawford5247]

I’m watching and am like wow look at their mouth! It does look like a paddle! Sometimes my lack of “pay attention “ skills amazes me haha. I think I may need to be tossed into the tank to wake me back up! 😂🤣😂

[@austinrecker141]

I see you like them river flys 😂

Yay! I’m first!

What do you feed a paddle fish in captivity ? Thought they feed on plankton

[@darrenhilton9402]

Great question. That's what I thought, too.

[@PfeifferFishing]

@@darrenhilton9402 going to be hard to feed haha Surprised no answer back.. No video updates on the paddle fish either haha , rod make a mistake ?

That like and subscribe at 14:53 is some wierd form of marketing... It's called "subliminal messaging" I wouldn't do that shit... xD

[@soumiksamanta1376]

Wow! Haven't seen it before to be honest.... How big do they get?

[@jimmyvang4552]

In the wild they can get about 50+ inches and over 40+ lbs. But in captivity, I don’t really know.

[@soumiksamanta1376]

@@jimmyvang4552 wow! What do they feed upon? Do they stay in cold waters or normal temperature?

[@leonardotheuseless4188]

@@soumiksamanta1376 they prefer colder water, they are filter feeders so they eat everything small, small pellets should work.
