    Loving this slightly longer form content. I could honestly listen to you talk about fish for hours. You’ve inspired me to learn about my local fish, and I’m going to pick up a pole and net :)

    love the colors these get when they spawn. They get bright yellow. Almost as cool as the bowfin when they get the turquoise colors

    I love the gar you have! One of the best memories I have was fishing with my dad near my grandparent's property, and there was a gar just being idle in the water. Same place where I once caught a pumpkinseed! I discovered your page through a Tumblr post and don't use but two social media platforms, so I'm thrilled you upload to RUclips, not just TikTok otherwise, I wouldn't be exposed to your cool content! Howdy from Tennessee!

    Would something like java moss or guppy grass not survive in the low light eel pit ?

    how long can they stay out of water?

    • @CowTurtle
      @CowTurtle  Год назад +1

      If they stay moist they’ll survive for hours.

    that was indeed a warmouth. bass are a type of sunfish so even if it is a rock bass(often confused with warmouth) you are still right about it being a sunfish

    Is it legal to just...take fish from the wild like that?

    • @CowTurtle
      @CowTurtle  Год назад +7

      Yep if they aren’t a protected species. The striped bass in the live well were someone else’s dinner. Bowfisherman kill 1000s of gar.

    This gar will attack and kill and eat the smaller eals

    • @CowTurtle
      @CowTurtle  Год назад +1

      The smaller eels are still half the size of the gar. I’m not worried about them getting eaten. Only alligator gar are sometimes aggressive so not worried about any aggression either.

    looks like lots of waterloss on that eelpit judging from the water level mark. just straight up cement without waterproofing membrane. keeping that eel pit looks like a lot of water waste so no for me

    Be careful posting video proof of you taking native animals from the wild with the intent of keeping them as pets. If a game warden sees this and can locate where you were, they can and will pay you a visit. Very unpleasant. That being said, this is not meant as hate, I LOVE your videos and just don’t want to see you tied up.

    • @taylorgarton6983
      @taylorgarton6983 Год назад

      My brother posted a video of a corn feeder on our property that we use to just feed our native herd of deer, not for use of hunting them, just to keep them fed in a way we can also monitor their health, and they came and threatened to take all of our firearms and made us get rid of the feeder and salt licks.

  • @ericconnor8419
    @ericconnor8419 Год назад +6

    They were probably living a nice life outside. You should not take full grown wild animals and put them into your dark basement, even if you think they look really cool.
