He was already dead
@@terryhancock I'm still alive, I swear
I’m
Never thought of using dead rats for bait.
We always just used sardines or chicken parts lol
Very nice mouth fishing fishing very nice elegator 🔥
I caught a 900 pound bass with a raccoon I found road killed, love the videos great work
👀👀👀
A 900 lb bass ? ...... You surely must mean 9,000 because 900 isn't Even worth keeping, throw those minnows back man!
I don't think you mean a bass unless it's a ocean bass
Who hasn't caught a 900 pound bass. Most of the ones I catch are by using 50 pound shiners and size 30 Ott circle hooks. The hardest part is casting my Penn international gold reel with 1000 pound test line further than about 2 feet. Those 1000 oz lead sinkers help a bit.
Lie cus the heavyest bass was 22 pounds so stop the cap
My brother's left an open diaper with chocolate syrup in it on his dashboard for around 20 years now. He's gotten a few "You so nasty!!" notes under his wipers, but nobody's ever broken in.
Lol, I love creative solutions
😂
What does it it have to do with a rat and a fish.? You high or something? 🤔
@@jonathanvachondechevigny1020 It's still an epic solution
Hey coffee is too expensive now to be spewing all over my coffee table. 🤣😂
LMAO
As a kid in Illinois, we would fish with live mice for bass. A large weedless hook rubber banded ( those used on braces ) under a mouse. Float it on a stick to where you want him ( edge of the lilly pads ), and jerk him off. A SWIMMING MOUSE GAINED IMMEDIATE HITS! If you were lucky, the band would break so you could catch another.
Fish do be eating mice
I get the same feeling when I get back to my car after parking in different places. I always fear it's towed, or broken into. I liked seeing how you showed us the trek to get out. Your dedication for great content and hours upon hours, editing, etc., shows in your videos. ❤
Yeah, it can be stressful not knowing what might very well have happened.
I appreciate the support
Awesome adventure.....again!
Many thanks!
It's crazy that it took so many days to catch a fish, especially with rats. Glad it paid off though with such a beautiful gar. Great video as always and I can't wait to get out on the water with you next week!
Yeah, it's been a weird week
Good stuff. You had me going with the visit to Pet Smart!
Lol, thanks!
When I was a "Keeper" at a zoo, I ordered chicks (baby chickens) to feed to our raptors (eagles, owls & hawks.) They came like that, frozen solid in a plastic bag in a corrugate box. I had to take them out of the freezer the day before so that they would be thawed for the birds to eat. I did not worry. I knew that I would see them again when the owls regurgitated their "Owl Pellets!" 😉
Brambles is what we 🇬🇧 call the bushes you went through at the beginning.
That was a beautiful looking gar & in such a tough place to get to.
😎🎣🐟
Yeah, it paid off in the end
Great stuff
Your patience paid off!.
Nice fishing, beautiful gar. In Europe when freshwater fishing, we nearly always use a unhooking mat or put it on grass to protect the fish while it's on land.
Omg i really thought so for a second 😂 good stuff brother.
I figured it would have that effect
My family and friends call those vines “wait-a-minute” vines cuz when you’re walking through the woods and get hung up in them you have to say “Wait-A-Minute!”
I’m from Pasadena, but we have land in Newton County and that stuff is everywhere!! Love your vids! Keep it up!
"Rats may be small, but they're mighty bait for those who seek the monsters of the deep. With their tantalizing scent and irresistible allure, they lure the behemoths from the depths, offering anglers a chance to wrestle with giants. It's a testament to the circle of life in the waters, where even the smallest creature plays a crucial role in the pursuit of the ultimate catch." 🐀🎣
What's that from?
@@wildlifefishingshowidk it sounds AI generated not sure tho
@@ChaceBennett yeah, I gotta start watching out for that
Shame he is fishing in septic pool.
@georgeoffenberger1262 Oh, you're one of those types, lol
We call them " Wait a minute vines " . You take one step a wait a minute and you'll feel them wrap around your legs . LOL.😅
Yep, that's extremely accurate
Nice to see you still explore.
Always 🤙
Good catch, One thing, That’s really Great about watching you, Is You Don’t “CUSS” Great Job.
Appreciate it 🙏
I love your vids man awesome stuff
Much appreciated 🙏
I love that you took a “sensitive”approach to this, and making sure all proper caution was in place. So no one can complain and I’m sure some will still try lol, awesome stuff
Oh I fully expect them to, lol
I love the videos where you turn strange and unusual baits into successful catches bigger than any fish most people catch in their lives!
I appreciate it 🙏
I would normally be very upset about catching a fish this small but I was so tired of filming this video that I didn't care
I would have been interested in the video.
But it was so shining and sparkling, and only had eyes for your sunglasses😮
Haha when you showed petsmart at first, I thought damn, that's messed up. That was a good start
Thanks, I had a feeling I could get a lot of attention that way before doing the switch
Hilarious! Great video
Glad you enjoyed it
I have I tried a bird before
Birds are really hard to photograph well while deceased, I'm still trying to figure that one out
Super žvejyba 🎣😉

HAVE YOU EVER USED WORMS FOR GAR BAIT
I use live white mice. They are actually decent swimmers and their motion will attract large bass.
Bass love mice
Awww great idea.
This video is very informative. In the first part, your decision to go back to your vehicle was pretty much as I would have. The look for sharp objects behind the vehicle is good,...!!
Much appreciated!
Got a new subscriber here my hood man. 💯
Greetings from England.
The amount of trash on the ground everywhere is brutal. Don’t see that here in Canada when we go fishing
Yeah it's bad
No in Canada you elect your trash as prime Minister
Just found your channel and I love it. This is the kind of fishing I like to do. I'm very grateful for your hard work in making these videos and I am your newest subscriber!
BADASS BBBRRRROOOOO 🤘🏻💪🏻🤘🏻💪🏻 love it Man!!!!!!
Much appreciated 🙏
The Gar and Carp channel.... Must eat a lot of McDonalds! LOL
I mostly cook everything I eat
amazing video brothers the best rat
Many thanks
I don't see snakes often,but when I do there can be Many Together 😮
Tends to happen when certain species become active in the Spring
Thanks for the ethics, I had a pet black hooded rat long ago and she was a very sweet little pet that was aware of the sound of my car and waiting for me when I got home every day.
Yeah, I wouldn't use a live rat. They are extremely intelligent little animals.
I also had a blk hooded make, raised from 6 weeks. He was extremely intelligent and would games with me. It was like he was trying to outsmart me, trying to outsmart him. He was extraordinary so much i included him in a boom on Amazon “All Creatures Greatly Loved” under Snoopy. Love rats, they are far more intelligent than human realize
Awesome catch!!! Stay safe. Cheers. 😊
The most interesting bait🫢
Very interesting, very difficult
Watching from Philippines
Much love to the Philippines
Very nice bro keep it up my fishing channel my from India Kerala snake head fish only fmy fishing🔥❤
Another great video! That gar had amazing coloration
True
It was extremely pretty
Lol pretty awsome man
Thanks!
Ha!! THUMBNAIL MASTERY!
Lol, thanks!
Good thing you used the frozen models. Otherwise we would have thousands of comments from the environmentalist's. You Smart.
I'm an environmentalist.
@@wildlifefishingshow I meant PITA groups.
@@anthonypeak2125 gotcha
@@anthonypeak2125 love a good bread
I have to say that I love these strange bait videos.
I appreciate it! This one was damn hard to make, lol
@@wildlifefishingshow I can only imagine hah.
I have my grandpas mouse and rat harnesses he used in Canada for giant pike and Muskie I’ve never even considered using them until now! lol
Well, keep in mind that I'm not using live or pet rodents. I'm specifically and only using dead, processed rodents that are sold to zoological facilities as food items. That distinction, which I make clear in the video, is very important.
Why is everyone talkin shit bro can fish with wtv he wants lmao nice vid g💯👍🏽
I knew they would, lol. Not gonna lie, I like it. It just means the video is doing exactly what I thought it would.
@@wildlifefishingshowkeep doin you g
In California we call it poison oak! Lmao
I'm not allergic, so I probably couldn't recognize it right in front of me
I love when you try unusual baits! I hope you do more creative ways of fishing like this.
Will definitely keep trying
Cool video
I started by writing a nasty comment, then realized that you did this the right way, kudos to you
@tech1m502 he still took it's life. Get a Rat from a Pet Store and keep it as a pet. It might change your mind about this. They are not only intelligent AF, but they are also affectionate with their owners. He could of (and Should have) set a trap and caught a wild rat to use. Not a tame and timid one.
@@MarvynSyn999did you even watch the video?? Lol
@@MarvynSyn999 There's some truth to your words my friend
@@MarvynSyn999 he didn't take its life, he bought them from a place that humanely dispatched them and cleaned them. Should have watched the video smh
@@kierra_mist When I saw that he went to Pet Smart? No. I stopped watching. Because I had pet rats for years. The reason I stopped was it was too painful when they Passed. Couldn't handle it anymore. That's why when my last 3 cats die, I won't get another. But speaking of...do you know I could put one of my pet rats on my bed with my cat and they wouldn't even attack it? Granted, both were raised in my Apartment, but people talk about "instinct" and all that, but they actually played together. It was Amazing to watch! So, yes I'm a little sensitive and biased. Sorry about that. PS I'm also a Fisherman, and I also throw them all back. I just love all God's Creatures. I catch spiders in a cup and let them go outside. If they're small enough? I let them stay.
Rats wacky style.😂😂
Oh yeah p e t a😂😂😂❤ going to get you
Let em try
Always be safe brother, alligators hang out in Houston waters.
Definitely
mad respect
Nice environment for the snakes coming out from hibernation this time of year. Ne careful.
For sure. I'm disappointed that I didn't see any.
As expected, the thumbnail caught me as this showed up in my feed, followed by the 25 seconds of trepidation at the beginning. 😱😭 Fortunately, I have learned to wait before I "speak". 😂 I did enjoy this, except for the tragic amount of trash & pollution, but that's not on you. I was concerned about you eating something that lived in that environment, so I was pleased to see you release it. I thoroughly enjoyed the comments, & your replies. I read ALL of them; it was almost better than the video. 😉🤣 Love your sense of humour, because I'm Canadian, eh. 🤣🤣😆I've Liked & Subscribed, so I'll be seeing you again soon. TTFN 😁👍
Best comment yet
very nice video, I subscribed to the channel.
Much appreciated
I have been lmao at your reaponses to comments. Snarky snarky...😂😂😂😂
Gowever, I get it...ask dumb questions...😂😂😂
It’s a jungle out there!
It definitely is
The trees are good for the fish good hiding places but most of that is nasty
All true
hahaha, Gator Gar go brrr
I suppose they do?
R.I.P Stewart Little 😂😂
He had a good run
Yo! Thinking about joining the patreon to support, do you have like an easy to read houston fishing spots locations? I am always looking to get on some fish and been coming up dry lately. Great content!!
Yeah, something like 12 really detailed fishing spot highlights. Very detailed, photos and hand drawn sketches included. Very easy to read and very detailed at the same time.
some things you use for gar bait,could catch you some catfish
yes,,i've got blue-cats on electrified rats at white-oak bayou bridge,,[fresh spring water],,one time seen a huge sea turtle,,have you fished there ?
Nice fish
Thanks 🙏
If that’s the bayou are there gators in the water where you are?
Mate ya proper hard-core 🫡make my fishing in the north west of uk look ridiculous. Legend !!!!!!❤🎣
I appreciate it
I've got mad respect for UK fishermen
What is your preferred baitfor big catfish?? Going to a pay lake in a few weeks and it has monsters. Any and all answers appreciated.
Try catching shad or bluegill from the same lake with a cast net & cut them up for bait.
If ya cant do that then fresh chicken liver from walmart usually get u a bite
Big shad are really hard to beat
Big shad and crappie are the best bait
😂top Gold
Yeah and you being in Texas, this time of year, you gotta watch out for Ol mr tight eyes too, snakes! Probably gets pretty warm during the day, even this time of year, right? And yeah as far as fish eating whatever, I’ve seen flatheads nabb all different kinds of things off the top of the water, blue’s too and largemouth bass, they’ll grab anything they think they can get in their mouth. I’ve know all three of the fore mentioned fish will grab a snake, baby ducklings, mice, rats, small turtles, birds, etc etc etc. and I’m sure a gar, about any Gar, will take whatever too. You’re probably proof of that, right there!! 👍👍
Fish are definitely opportunists!
Seriously ? Jeez. What's next? You'll use a cat or a hamster as bait ?
What upsets you about this, specifically?
That intro hahahaha.
WILD LIFE, WILD THUMBNAIL!!
I figured it would get people's attention
Poor little bugger 😊
Such is life
Nice video like always!!! I just have a question, why when you were fishing on the bayou at the end, there were so many dead fish on the bank(and some of them look like the had no head)?
I didn't see any without a head, but I'm pretty sure they died when the water suddenly dropped upstream.
@@wildlifefishingshow next challenge, try to catch fish with what type of dead fish you can find 😜
BRO YOU SCARED ME GOING INTO PETCO AND SHOWIN LIL BUDDY I WAS LIKE NOOOOOOO
Since you’re in Texas, bro, I would love to see you and TY pig patrol Collab on a fishing video that would be awesome
True
I don't think our filmmaking styles mesh well
@@wildlifefishingshow well you guys could get together and figure that out I think it would be a great Collab just saying do your own thing, bro. I’m sure he wants to do his own thing too. It could be better.
Amazing the amount of dangerous trash, plastic bottles in the washed out stream bed and concrete bayou. Nice haircut, btw.
Yeah, it's astounding how much garbage is in there
Thanks 🤙
“Look at that. Would you look at it…. Just look at it… hmm hm hmm hm hm….”
Ed Bassmaster
Gotta be sure to look
Looks like a pike even though I know it’s a gar, we don’t have them here.
Live bait..or jigging it would have help maybe?.. big dog picture sticker on the rear window like a Rotti or Doberman maybe then leave a note saying "walking the dogsss won't be long".
I think a biohazard sign
Always point your fishing rods forward and let them lead the way. Nothing worse than having to go back. Cuz it hung up on something.
Hey bud, sorry about the comment I posted a couple of days ago!! I saw the live ray and scrolled through assuming u used one fresh one from pet store not watching entire video!!! I was totally wrong to say that and humbly apologize!!! My bad!!!! And dang, that’s a great fish!!!
Rat!!!
And a gar is a much maligned fish!! It is beautiful
And so adapted to live in stagnant water!! A survivor!!!
Be less squeamish. A mouse a rubber band and a treble hook fished in Lilly pad will get the best surface strikes on bass.
But you're the one who's upset 🤷♂️
Seems like me doing my thing bothers you, lol
@@wildlifefishingshow Not upset. Do you always see a problem where none exist? Just saying a live rat or mouse might catch something useful like a bass or catfish.
@55SwampFox I see a problem with a man who confuses empathy and common sense for being squeamish, yes
With so fat rats you could go for a bobcat maybe even a mountainlion 😉 👍
Almost got caught myself by a mountain lion a while ago, so I'll stick with fish for now
Any good fishing spots near minute made stadium? I’m coming in from Corpus Christi
Lots of nearby fishing spots on my Patreon
Your bank looks like my parents river bank
I wait until the river goes down in like The end of May and I weedwack a trail down there except just the very end.
This way no one knows there is a path up there and is tempted to walk up from the river
I think the climbing will stop most of the people here
interesting video, to ask what was with the dead fish they looked like headless maybe catfish or trout look at 21:12 just wondering. .
Those were mullet that died when the water dropped suddenly.
What’s up with all the dead fish where you got the gar
Not sure, I have to look into that. The water level dropped very suddenly and loads of dust started flowing downstream, creating what I believe to be a hypoxic environment in the narrow section of the bayou upstream. I need to look into why that happened.
Funny you would worry about the quality of the rats when all the garbage you walked thru goes into the river, the fish are more contaminated than the bait!
I'm not putting garbage on my hook, though.
No I understand u wouldn't use garbage as bait, I just couldn't believe there was so much trash in and around that waterways. I'm from a town in PA and we have litter but not like that. I was just shocked at the sight of it. That was a beautiful gar though!
Dude for real! I used live mice at Clear Lake California and caught a 10lb large mouth. My current pb
I caught a 10 1/2 in Clearlake 2 years ago I still got the picture he’s a toad!! There are monsters out there! It’s my current PB too and not gonna lie I don’t think I’ll ever catch one as big, it was the end of a bass tournament and I showed up to hang out with family and it was on my 1-2nd cast I thought I was snagged for a second lol
I wouldn't use a live mammal, but there's no denying fish will eat them
@@530Wrangler_Bullyz hell yeah dude
@@wildlifefishingshow oh ya totally me either. lol
Someones mommy didnt pay enough attention. Raised quite a tool.
Every word out of your mouth puts money in my pocket. Have fun thinking about that as you desperately scream for my attention like I'm your daddy 👶
@@wildlifefishingshow lmao. Keep dreaming, baby boy.
Entertaining video! Cool that you are sensitive to the contaminants/etc in the bait, but i think maybe trapping invasive/nuisance animals for bait would also be ethical.
Where do you be fishing for these alligator gars
It's all on my Patreon
Good old american river, nothing better than a nice rainbow water and a "normal" toxic smell.
🤷♂️
What can you get if you throw a real M-80?
Pescaria top 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
💯
A swimming cat don’t stand a chance
A catfish maybe?
