Release of Monster longnose Gar

[PipeDollaz]

Kdc Is Acting Like A Lil Bitch,, We Get Nice Size Gar Like That In Florida,, Espacialy In Large Canals...

[nathan4005]

Nice gar and that release was funny some people are freaking out when it didn't matter to the fish

[Mike101c]

i dont know much about gar but is that a proper release? dont think so

[mcelmer24]

that was a dam nice gar

[appy234]

where i come from their a nusence and i have always been brot up to avoid ketching them but you cant always do that and if you did you cut their heads off and reales em back for the turtles but i seen somewhere a guy got a TON of meat off of them and said they taste great so im not gunna waste any more of them!

[MrMikedarrow]

lowering a fish that size into the water by yourself can through your back out. The water is obviously deep enough so that the gar had a comfortable landing. Gar are extremely hardy, and tossing that fish would be less stressful that a human standing stationary and falling in a soft patch of grass. Unfortunately, in orlando many fisherman kill them for population control. It's nice to see your respect and love for one of our coolest native aquatic species. Keep it up buddy.

[BobFrick]

I love the comments, mainly the dumb ones! Just keep watching, there will be more to come soon!

[spearsanythin]

Did look a bit heavy handed didnt it. Im pretty sure it didn't hurt it though. Not with it being dead and all.

[drewmo58]

I was thinking he needs his license taken away. Obviously he has no respect for fish.

[meltz911]

Who shot who in the what now?

Not how I was taught to release....

What in sweet Jebus is this guy thinking?

[Mads0609]

If the dog falled in.... It wolud be gone forever ! :D

[LegoHog4001]

FISH REVENGE!!!

[albertafisherman]

hahah the dogs like oh shit that things gunn eat me ok i aint going in the water no more

[Disasterpeice777]

That thing could eat that dog.

[william7104]

BIG ASS GAR

[Mattera1]

you retards those gar are a rough fish they will live for a couple hours above water, they are really tough

[ESN25]

That thing must be dead..........

[georgekentseven]

the fish was obviously dead and is now turtle food..

[TheRaider1017]

That thing was huge!

[HomosapienBC]

Why you put it back ? They eat the bass, drum fish . Gars are a pest like Snakehead fish.

[MSK120]

They play a role in the ecosystem by stopping overpopulation of other species, so you should let some of them live.

[metalfish24]

Because unlike the northern snakehead it's a native fish that has just as much right to live there as bass. bass are farmed comercialy in huge amounts and have no danger of runing low in supply, the gar can eat as many as it can and another bass will put in the eco system and you wont notice. They also eat invasive speices such as carp and young snakeheads.You are obviously not a true fisherman if you are too stuped to respect their right to live in nature .

[Nguyen8136]

Cool fish. Glad you put it back into the water

[BobFrick]

LOL, kdc43, for real.

[BobFrick]

Never my dogs are too cool!!!

He loves to go gar fishing. Thanks for watching my vids you will see more of him or stop watching.

[werewfistruefate9]

@BobFrick awesome attitude towards the flamers! one comment though, when releasing your fish, would it be possible to prevent the fish from landing on its back? Although gar are more sturdy than most fish, slapping into water (regardless of depth) can still injure the organs of a any fish. Just food for thought.

[Crash180]

@werewfistruefate9 I don't think it was intentional. He was just trying to dive him straight down to get him to deeper water quicker where the temps are cooler and more oxygenated. Of course, I think he was just a bit tired and over rotated him by accident. This is the same technique a lot of striped bass fisherman use when practicing 'catch and release' in the summer time (minus the fish body-slam :p ).

[Benno074]

i see he's down to his last piece of live bait :P

[jellofast]

the fish fell on its back

[mtr4216]

ohh im not trailer trash haha

[gagsess]

why dont u step on a ladder ond throw him down a little bit higher!! i have never wenn some as bas catch and release, i hate u

[BobFrick]

I am sorry you dont understand, what happened, while I tried to get the fish back down into deeper water. They will sometimes kick as you push them down, and that reason is to get them into cooler water. I watch my fish and make sure they down. If you had expererance, with these fish you would understand what happens on a release of a 61 inch Longnose Gar, ALSO GOD BLESS YOU YOU NEED IT.

[GrizzliesGoneWild]

That's a nice size gar, and nice to see you catch and release them. Many people do not know what they are missing.

[gands1102]

Just so everyone knows gar can breathe air. So it was fine being out of the water as long as it stays wet. If you dont beleive me look it up.

[tajmaishu]

Holy shiit...poor fish and I hope it still alive...lol

[jasonjayd21]

Well carp arent a game fish there guy.....they all should be shot with bows even bass its just so extreme

[tyranusmaul]

my friend used to catch gars and either cut their heads off or shoot them in the brain with a pellet gun because they are such a big nasty fish the eats all the freshwater game, like bass and carp!

[HeadlessHorseman1234]

u had that fish out of the water for so long thats its practically already dead u should hold upagainst your boat and see if it swims if it does let it go if it doesnt might as well keep it

[danngree]

I fish for gar down at a river that runs through my land, and once i pull them out, they will flop around and scooch their way back to the water for a good 7 or 8 minutes.

[chbgator]

Gars breath air they have modified swim bladders connected to their esophagus thats why they surface so much because they need to gulp air.

[mtr4216]

trust me the fish is fine i caught a longnose gar and it took me 30 minutes to take the hook out and it swam away perfectly fine alos gar are trashy fish

[danecook321]

Did he give the gar an FU? lol

[pittibergh08]

"The FU on the 500 pound Big Show"

hahahaha

[RenatoandEric]

true!

[jdogg9111]

that would have been hilarious if that dog jumped in after it and got eaten by that monster

[aj3071]

how do u catch them????

[askaninjafan]

i was reading the comments when i came across a certain sentence.

"The longnose Gar is a tough fish a long skinny type fish that needs to be speared back into the water."

i have one simple question in follow up to this statement,

why?

[mtr4216]

they eat bass and alot of freshwater fish

[askaninjafan]

catch and release =]

[elokurwaelo]

hi guys i got a question is that legal to take a garfish/garpike or whatever its called from the fishing spot ?? I caught some gars last time on Illinois River but i release all of them because i didnt even know what fish it is... I'm going fishing tonight and i just wanted to show one to my dad because he probobly never saw fish like this... Do you guys know anything about this?? thanks;)

[mlm71landscape]

here in georgia the dnr dont have any limits on gar so you keep the fish if you want them.i always just let them go.i could be wrong about the limits so somebody set me straight if i am!

[rogdawg1989]

lol, man dont u hate it when u get all these assholes on here telling u how to release the fish, when you've been doing it for far longer than they have, and suddenly they think they're the experts? lol

[wildcatcrazy4]

thats little! just kidden, man thats a beast of a gar!

[mlm71landscape]

kill the fish?haha!you can take these gar by the snout and sling them back in the river and they will live!dont get me wrong i dont do that but they are one tough fucking fish!!this guy knows what he is doing!

[zoso743E]

nice fish. we got lots of gars but they don't seem to bite r bait. what did u use. a secret weapon.

[JuttyBoy1424]

WOW! What kind of release was that? Are you trying to kill fish now or what? Learn to release a fish before going out please. Rookies these days....

[BobFrick]

Read the hold post and you would not be thought of as a rookie yourself. If it were you releasing that fish you would sometimes push too much also.

[jazer94]

gratz to the catch and thanks for putting it back in the sea :)

[zaracki92]

sea or lake :P

[MMeeks]

well done! but, dont release the fish like did...it´s a big shock for them.

[BobFrick]

The longnose Gar is a tough fish a long skinny type fish that needs to be speared back into the water. The videos are edited to fit, what you dont see is me watching the fish until they disapear, in the summer when its hot this method is best to get them moveing agian, sorry it looks so bad to some because she went over to far but after hundreds of releases this is best.

[kentobizmol]

haha, to us Californians who only fish bass, it seems like a real surprise to see this gar release.lol

imagine doing that to a monster bass, she'll probably rip right open, haha

[xXDeadoraliveXx]

where is that?

[PartyLaBabyOff]

is itt dead?

[BobFrick]

No she was not dead the video is edited and you dont see me watch her swim off making sure she does not come back up. Thats way I put them in head first and up high like I did, even through I did push her a little too much.

[jokingjester]

great job releasing it.!

[Coltsfuntawin]

dude u catch the biggest gars that i ahve ever seen

i can only catch 10-25"

[realistromeo]

when your done catching them you bodyslam them into the water? hahahah j/k nice fish brobably a good fight too.

[BobFrick]

No she was not ment to go that far over I wanted to send her straight in but I push off to hard with my left arm shes ok . I did not want that tail in my face watch in slow mo and you will see there was No Body slam. Thanks for the comment. Bob.

[BobFrick]
