Gonna definitely give this a shot one night on my lunch break since I work here at TMC lol.
I grew up on Brays Bayou in the 1960'2 and 1970's, but the water was pretty nasty, so I never fished there. I used to fish a lot on Hermann Park Pond. Nice video!
Suprized it didn't die anyway the amount of time it was out of the water. But should just try pinching the bread around the shank and leave the rest all jagged.
Me and my buddy from Dallas are going to hit this spot this weekend. Thanks for the knowledge!
Ahem I believe you are introduced from Europe my friend 😉. Great video that was fun
Good one ! Keep it up...good editing too
Seemab Abbasi thanks, that means alot!
yeah man you're awesome. Maybe we can meet up and fish some where. I recently went to bane park in houston and caught a ton of small crappie
Nich nich same
I always feel torn when I catch tilapia out of the waterways here. I know it's illegal to release them, but there's no way in hell I'm eating fish out of the bayous, and it just doesn't feel right to kill a fish I'm not gonna eat lol
The Lone Fisherman cut it, gut it and toss it back. Gar chum
Don't feel bad. SOMETHING will eat it.
Yup. Kill it, gut it, and throw it back.
Use it at cut bait 🤣🤦🏻♂️
This is really good man! Your camera presence is awesome here! 👍
Please find a time to visit Brays Bayou again. I found that this year the juveniles of Rio Grande Cichlid totally replaced the juveniles of blue tilapia (the area between South Loop West Lake to Main St). I wander whether Rio Grande Cichlids start out-compete the blue tilapia because of their similar but more aggressive nature.
Love your channel! College student in a budget so kayaks and boats aren't an option for me, so I'm always looking for new fishing spots. The available info is non-existent though in my experience..
Justin Truong I feel that 100% any luck fishing ?
hey man keep up the good work. respect
The Asian carp is actually a mullet they made their way from the ship channel
It was kinda rude for that guy walking his dog to let him just stroll into someone else's personal space like that!
You know, it's an interesting thing. I read an article someone wrote titled something along the lines of "No, I Actually Don't Want To Pet Your Dog." It was a heavy handed, but very interesting, opinion piece about dog owners' tendency to assume everyone is ok with their dog invading their personal space. Generally, I don't mind because I like dogs, but when there's hooks and bait around, it does aggravate and worry me.
just found ur channel yesterday. i feel like ive been watching hours of your videos haha
This is a wonderful video I love catching tilapia and carp in Houston
Jack Boyd any recommendations where I can catch those 2?
Awesome video!!
You are such an amazing guy ! Love your video !
Nice video!!
Why did you release the invasive species back into Texas water?
he must not be from round here
Please nobody sniper crawl to the water .
I live in Pasadena and love fishing is there any of your videos of fishing in the Pasadena area ?
Lovely Animal!.. best line!
Jesse Eisenberg went fishing!
I worked walking distance from where you are. Kush Corner, the Mental Health Hosp. etc. that can be a dangerous area. Have you been approached or threatened while fishing?
I used to work for the Houston Zoo's safety team, I know exactly what you're talking about, lol. Dealt with some crazy people then. Not when fishing though, luckily.
I'm really interested to know if anyone eats these fish from Houston's bayou's
would not recommend it. but Texas department of health and safety maintains a list of known consumption bans/advisories based on testing of fish from those areas. I don't see Brays Bayou on the list so... take your chances?
@@fakiirification Oh hell no! Lol
I wonder what will happen if somebody eats that fish...
I don't like to waste fish either but if you got caught releasing that fish there would be a fine, But a good video sir
I'm new to fishing and would love to job you and learn
Snipe fishing..kewl
Are you on the Herman park side? I would love to catch those Tilapia
Yes, but you could probably fish that spot better by walking over the suspension bridge and fishing from the concrete stairs leading down to the water. Because of the flow of current in that spot, it's much easier to keep your bait where the fish are and play the current how you want. I haven't seen any tilapia there since Harvey came through, but I suspect it has more to do with the tempeature. They feed very actively in the heat of the day. Good luck!
Is it safe to eat fish in those waterways?
Definitely not safe. The water in Houston's bayous, especially post Harvey, are extremely polluted. Sometimes you can smell the chemicals in air.
My personal rule is I never eat anything I catch North of the Freeport/Galveston coastline and South of Livingston.
My boi does his research
trade you secret fishing spots lik on 15 and shepard in the heights
I am new here, take me fishing, hehe
That dog owner is disrespectful.
Can you bowfish at this spot
I wouldn't think so. Right next to a public park and the hospital district. I don't know what the actual regulations for bow fishing in this area are, but there are police and park rangers all over the place and they would probably dissaprove 😉
It's too bad, because conditions are perfect for it. I recently bought a bowfishing rig to use on yhe show, and the thought defitely crossed my mind.
@@wildlifefishingshow let me know if your down to go bowfishing. Iv been going to bayous near my house
can i join you some time
what bayou is this ?
Jose Cortez this is Brays Bayou, right next to the Houston Medical District.
Do not eat from Brays bayou
i am underage do i need a licence to fish
Infamous RUclipsr If you are under 17 then you can fish without a license in Texas. Here's the Texas Parks and Wildlife page with all the info you need.

Tight lines and good luck!
