GIANT RIVER FISH is BIGGER THAN WE ARE!!! (INSANE)

[@dolphins19671]

Absolute respect for your catch and release ethics. Thanks for posting.

[@TyPigPatrol]

Thank you Simon!

[@jacobdrollinger4802]

Well, you're not going to eat it! And why would you want to kill such a beautiful animal?

[@slikisokus]

If you're not eating the fish then obviously release it. But... The question is: exactly how ethical it is to cause stress and suffering to an animal just for fun? (I am talking about C&R in genera). I had some kids in my neighbourhood that used to throw rocks at cats "just for fun". How is this different? I love fishing! But I believe that this is a form of hunting. You hurt an animal and you get to eat it. Otherwise it is just abuse.

[@cottonmouth71]

Its AWESOME to see Gar getting the attention they deserve ! I grew up [in the 80s]' fishing with my dad an granddad for Gator Gar , right in the middle of downtown Dallas Tx ! Back then VERY FEW people knew that these monster size fish even existed ! I landed my 1st Gar [just under 100 pounds] less than a mile from downtown Dallas when I was 12 in 1981 ! It was a BLAST an I was [like my grandfather] instantly addicted to hunting for the big Gar that back then were pretty much EVERYWHERE in the Trinity !

[@ArmchairDeity]

Ty, my friend, I’ve been making a habit of commenting on your vids for a while now, and watching you grow as a fisherman and conservationist has been a privilege. This video, actually this fish, is one of my faves so far… her size, her coloration, her attitude… just… wow. Gator gar are one of my bucket list fish… one day, I swear, I will set a hook into one of them… and see my daughter do the same! AND… you lost that second fish and didn’t even have to bleep them video! 😉🤣🤣🤣

[@TyPigPatrol]

Thanks for always watching and commenting man! i appreciate it! This fish was pretty specail to mee as well, did you notice how calm she was during the whole pictures and release? so cool!

[@ArmchairDeity]

@@TyPigPatrol she was all that and more man… such an apex predator that she just doesn’t need to go agro. If something is big enough to eat her… well then there ain’t no point to thrashing around. And if not, it’s probably something she can eat! Other than people, and maybe alligators, there’s nothing that could even touch a full grown gator gar.

[@deanmoberg445]

Good job Ty! I appreciate seeing a humane catch and release. Thanks for educating others to preserve these animals.

[@TyPigPatrol]

Thank you Dean!

[@glendaroberts5965]

I hear the excitement in Ty’s voice and I imagine him opening Christmas presents ten plus years ago. I’m glad y’all are tagging them and letting them go. I thought when you set that hook in the second one you were fish bait. Lol nice fishing!

[@glendaroberts5965]

@Bike Maker I’ve been a country girl all my life (almost 60 years) and I feel for folks that will never experience what I’ve lived growing up fishing, gardening, taking care of farm animals, camping, climbing trees, walking the creeks, riding horses and everything else I grew up doing.

[@TyPigPatrol]

Thank you Glenda! guess what all my presents were? all fsihing lures hahah

[@williamroyt1296]

What type of fish is that

[@TyPigPatrol]

Dang man i appreciate that i just hope youre not really sick haha

[@johngfishing8814]

Henry, I agree with you 100%. More people should be thinking like that!

[@TyPigPatrol]

gotta keep these fish around for generations to come!

[@farmerbob4554]

Thanks to you and Henry for expressing your opinions on preserving the alligator Gar as a precious resource. Why anglers and archers would kill these giants and then leave them on the bank to die in agony is beyond understanding. Their status should be one of a top notch gamefish equal to bass, trout, salmon, etc. The Gar you caught was a beautiful, representative specimen, just about perfect proportions. I love the toothy beak on those critters!

[@TyPigPatrol]

well said my friend, well said!

[@williambenner5550]

I think it is great what you guys are doing to protect these "dinosaur fish". Good job!

[@TyPigPatrol]

Thank you William!

Thanx Ty . yall catch fish nobody else on earth could ever catch .

[@TyPigPatrol]

Thank you EP!

[@davethefishdudesteinbock5518]

I don't know why people think Gator Gar are trash fish. They are amazing in my opinion and personally catching a large gar seems like a lot of Fun! Thanks Man for looking after the species! Need more anglers like you!

[@TyPigPatrol]

id agree, thank you Dave!

[@Lintlicker-ls8ne]

I wish I could put a heart where the thumbs up button is! That 6'4" is Amazing, and a beautiful fish!

There are very few things better in the world than that first glance of a big fish you've hooked when it emerged from the murky water. Great video and thank you for promoting catch in release, especially of the gar species....they are so misunderstood but are truly incredible sport fish

This has been my bucket list fish ever since the 90’s, when In Fisherman named them #3 on the top 10 hardest fighting fish in freshwater, which is incredible considering Wels, Amazon catfish, Arapima and sturgeon were on the same list. Love these videos!

[@fishingking1346]

Dam dude. Love the Chanel. Didn’t know u like fishing.

[@MissionaryInMexico]

@@TyPigPatrol Ty, I see kudzu on the banks. I hope you know... It's extremely edible and delicious. Find some growing away from where most humans go and fill up a bucket with the leaves and flowers. They're delicious fried, or boiled with vinegar and onions and garbanzo beans, and you can make rice and hamburger "pigs in a blanket" with them. With grape leaves, you'd want immature leaves for that. But with kudzu, mature leaves are the most palatable. Give it a try sometime.

[@margevans4540]

You know I love the crappie videos, now I love the alligator videos, but I'm waiting for the marlin video. Great video

[@TyPigPatrol]

Shoot im waiting on that video too lol

[@txdba]

When I saw that tail, the quote "We're going to need a bigger boat." came to mind.

[@TyPigPatrol]

haha that huge tail coming up always gets me excited!

[@levelupangler9263]

Your videos just keep getting better and better. My PB largemouth is just over 3 pounds - watching you land giants is inspiring.

[@edgeofreason2710]

Line peeling of a reel has to be one of the sweetest sounds in the world...

[@keithjones9904]

Subscribed and liked. Thank you, guys, for a really great experience. My 4-year-old grandson was silent and focused until about the 6:45 mark. Then he started jumping up and down. "Papaw, papaw, I want to go fishing!" That was fun, but the best part was the catch and release. Even if we are going to eat the fish, we had a good talk about not being wasteful.

[@Jo3x23]

Geezus she’s a beauty she does have a head of a 7ftr, great catch, & too bad on that miss, y’all are doing great out there, when you had the rope on the gar I was like “yup just walking my 6ft dinosaur what’s it to ya?”.......another banger ty good stuff.........I wanna go catch one too....

[@stephendoe7594]

So I have been going after these on the Brazos near Houston. Just curious, how exactly do y'all unhook them? I'm assuming you have to hook them in the throat, but I don't really like leaving hooks in fish if it can be avoided.

Hats off to ya'll for being great stewards and spreading the message of conservation. These fish are amazing creatures and deserve respect. To have beaten the odds and have survived as a species for millions of years, they should be protected. Texas Parks and Wildlife has been inexplicably slow to move.
