- I met up with documentary filmmaker Zachary Dziadul to help him film some incredible fish for an upcoming project of his focusing on Houston's bayous.
Things may have started slow, but our patience paid off in a big, big way!

Can't thank you enough for taking me out and showing me first hand what these bayous have to offer! What an experience!
I've already subscribed to your channel and I'm looking forward to watching your documentary 👍
OI
I wonder why they dont keep them
@@MagikFingers420 he’s not starving there’s no need to kill a beautiful monster if you don’t have to.
His film is still in production and I will share it on this channel when it's complete (we caught a lot of fish not included here and Im only a small part of a very thorough look at these bayous)
What kind of reel and rod are using?
@@boxingfanazM.O.B his reel is a Penn Fierce 3. His rod I’m not sure
@@redraces5508 thx bud, I was more interested in the reel than the rod. Thx again.
Should fish together
Where did you fish here what part of houston😊
Congratulations on the relief from the heat. I know what a refreshing that is to Houstonians.
I'm really sorry about your knee problem. I stepped down off a chair recently and split my right miniscus. My fault, because I'm old and overweight. This is definitely one of my very favorite YT channels.
I love the passion and view you you have for gar, that's my favorite fish. I feel the exact same way and don't understand why people view them as "trash fish". They are true dinosaurs and should be protected! Great video as always 👍
Yeah, the idea that the value of an animal that has been swimming around since the Cretaceous is determined by how many people currently want to catch them is ridiculous. They are a tremendous piece of zoological history.
I thought that the dinosaurs went extinct at least a million years ago . These are not dinosaurs . They are predators that are eating the game fish and should be killed when caught . In Colorado, they kill pike fish when they catch them to help the trout population .
@@gus2600 These are native fish that have been here since the Cretaceous and they can eat whatever they want, although to correct you I'll point out that their diet mostly consists of shad, buffalo, mullet, carp, and tilapia. However, EVEN IF they did eat game fish, the term "game fish" is completely arbitrary and speaks only to what is currently deemed popular to catch and has nothing whatsoever to do with a fish's role in or importance to the environment. And on top of all that, loads of animals eat "game fish." Alligators, otters, turtles, herons, pelicans, osprey, snakes, and on and on the list goes. You think they should all be wiped out because some random group of guys said which fish are more popular to catch than others? No. Alligator gar are incredibly important parts of our ecosystem and they must be protected.
Coming back to add this bit because I can't stop thinking about it... you don't really think we're seriously calling these fish dinosaurs because we think they're dinosaurs, right? Right? And yeah, dinosaurs went extinct at least a million years ago... about 65 million.
@@wildlifefishingshow well said.
@@wildlifefishingshow very well stated. Any true outdoor sportsman understands the need for environmental and species conservation. These amazing animals have been a part of our ecosystem for millions of years and we must ensure they’re here for a million more. Thank you so much for your videos.
Man, this is awesome. I love how the expert cares about the animal and orients it back to the water. Kudos.
Congrats man because I know the pressure you were feeling to get a good catch for good content for his documentary film.
I recognize the area when I see that parking lot. I left Houston in the early summer this year and I miss that place.
Where is this at??
This was a great video. You were very professional in the handling of that fish. Man, he was a big boy! Thank you for sharing!
I'm so happy that these giant fish are still with us. They are amazing. Great video 100%
💯
Fantastic episode! Great results 🙏
Very knowledgeable. You know your stuff man. Very impressed. Thanks for the video.
Thank you, I try to look at what I do as conservation education, the fishing rod is just a tool to get the animal on camera.
Big fan of you bro, thank you always.
Killing it man got me looking over the Houston bridges as I drive by Em now I do plumbing services all over Houston always looking for a cool looking spot to fish on baby!!!
I learned more about how to catch an alligator gar in this video than I have for years of watching fishing videos on and off. Thank you sir!!
That's amazing, and just a couple miles down the road. Adventures on the bayou!
Nice. I really appreciate your expertise and caring. Good Job!
Can't wait for the documentary
It's gonna be really good, for sure.
I bought my first cast net recently and tried your technique because it makes sense. I was really bad. Not sure if it's down to practice or I bought a crappy net. Probably a combination of both. I will persevere and hopefully one day I'll have it nailed.
Beautifull fish !!!!!! Saw this vid for the second time, and I am still amazed
Awesome vid man! I just love how passionate you are about conservation and stuff. There should be more people like you out there :) Another thing I appreciate about you is that, unlike some other fishing channels, you only show us fishing (and whisky and eating stuff, all fun things), and you don't mix in any religious crap like some other fishing channels out there :) That makes your content far more accessible to a wide range of people, including staunch sceptics like myself :) Keep up the great work!
I appreciate the support! Yeah, this is and always has been a science channel "disguised" as a fishing channel. I look at fishing as just a way to get these incredible animals on camera.
So basically you can't tolerate hearing religious stuff? Religious people are forced to hear atheist propaganda all day.
@@faithmgtow Not really. Atheists merely counter the religious stuff that is weaved into nearly everything in our respective societies (although, to be fair, it's not nearly as bad over here in the Netherlands as it is over there in the US, seeing how the percentages of theists in the Netherlands and a good part of northern Europe in general have been dropping year after year). Religious expressions and concepts are often introduced into even the most mundane tasks and events. Some atheists, like me, are just sick of getting it rubbed into our faces whenever we just try to watch something that shouldn't have anything to do with religion in the first place, like fishing. Don't play the victim here. Religious people greatly outnumber the atheists. All we can do is bring attention to the irrational, delusional abundance of religious superstition that permeates every part of society.
@@Emielio1 I'm just kidding, I wouldn't encourage even an atheist to do drugs, just a stereotypical joke on my part.
@@Emielio1 "religious people greatly outnumber the atheists" mostly true and from a statistical standpoint its absolutely true, but many religious people simply claim that title but don't believe in their said religion at all. There was a survey done in America I wanna say, that proved that most self proclaimed Christians have at least 1 new age belief. And I could be one of them if I'm being honest, I'm not sure. But my point is many self proclaimed Christians even, absolutely shun most of what's in the Bible and refuse to preach it, while calling Christians like me and other fundamentalists, who actually believe in the whole complete Bible, extremists and say we're preaching hate and intolerance and insinuate that we're just taking everything out of context.
Damn that was a good show!✌️
Love your videos!!👍👍
Damn brother that was a great catch. Another awesome video
I am never not amazed. Great video again brother.
Loved the video, Thanks!!
Please never leave Houston! The content is great but your INtent is even better
Best fishing video I have seen. Thanks!
I appreciate it
Fantastic episode! You are a great ambassador for the sport with your positive messages. 👍🏻🤍
Thank you, I really appreciate that! Also, been meaning to tell you that your user name is one of my favorites on here 👍
@@wildlifefishingshow I knew you would know what I know. Just to be clear, I am of the fresh water, pond and stream, Gasterosteus aculeatus clan. "Tips wide brimmed fluffy plumed hat at WILD LIFE!"
That was an awesome fish! Congratulations!
Excellent video, educational and exciting. Well done!
Thanks, I appreciate it!
OMG this deserves more like's I can give you only one. This is AGAIN a wunderfull Gar ! unbalievable such fish is swimming in waters by city's. I dont know youre name , but youre a great guy to release them every time again. Youre great !!!!!!!!!!!
I love this video.. Coz..you got a big Fish... Thats amazing👍👍 i love that..
Freaking awesome man!!
Good catch and great eating!
Super cool to see this going on in the city I grew up in
Awesome video!! I love these videos. I like catching these alligator Gar. I just don’t have many opportunities do it.
Great catch n release.🤘
Good job.. Catch and release...i like it.
Great catch with great excitement
Thanks!
Man that thing was huge great job
Loved the video. I enjoyed your technical commentary. It's obvious you've been doing this for awhile. 👍🐟
Could you provide an equipment list? Thanks.
Great release!
Amazing catch, well done .Perhaps next time you could try the rope method... You'd know exactly what I'm referring to... Better hook up ratio and no damage to the fish's mouth...
Love the channel. Keep up the work. I definitely need to up my game or need more patience with freshwater...
Thanks, I appreciate it! It can be tough sometimes for sure. I never upload my blank sessions but they happen, all day without a fish sometimes.
@@wildlifefishingshow i have a 20' mako. I'll pay for everything. Let's go out and hit some rigs
Wow 🤩 really nice job 👍
That is a beautiful and terrifying looking fish ..awesome
I learned long ago the best way to through a castnet is what works best for you, as long as you catch bait there is no wrong way.
just have to watch ,, exciting , wish I was there
The single biggest flathead I ever caught was in a spill basin of the Gila Main near Yuma. Was using fairly large tilapia suspended over rip rap. Don't know the exact weight, but I stand 5' 10" and holding its head at chest level, the tail was still on the ground and the head was wider than my chest. That was waaay back in the day="83 ish.
My son and I recently stayed with Cajun Experiences in Louisiana and did some jug lines for gar.
They were catching 100 / 120 lb gar. We pulled up one about 25lb. I can’t even imagine pulling up a 100lb one.
I was most surprised at how amazing gar was for eating. Smoked gar (prepared like jerky) WOW. And as a regular cooked fish, I was really amazed as well.
Wow amazing..... 👍👍👍👍
I throw it wrong on purpose. Lol love it
Hi do you have a video showing the stuff that you use the equipment for fishing
I just burn the extra battery pack and my phone battery watching your videos they're awesome
alligator gar fishing in the trinity river in downtown dallas is a hoot. they're big and fight hard, fun times. there's some homeless camps near but never any problems, they often come up to check you out and I always have extra poles and make new fishing buddies there.
Yo that's crazy!
I live in the Midwest right off the Missouri River. I have caught several gar but nothing even close to the ones your pulling in on these videos. These things are insane…wow!
They do make bigger hooks of the same diamator as the 8/0 ones. We use 10/0 and they are hard to tell the diffrence sometimes.
Very interesting.
You said it yourself! Gar fishing isn’t so mainstream and they don’t make a lot of tackle specifically for it. Make your own line of tackle!
Could you do a video showing what you use for your gar rigs??
Yes, I'm currently planning a video that includes that information 👍
What pound of braided line do you use
That is a monster!
Nice
Here in Indiana, we don't have alligator gar but we have a number of other species. We are normally catfisherman. And when we catfish, we use 100 lb braid! We hear all the time how it's Overkill. But our rivers are full of trees and sharp rocks. So that's why we use such a heavy braids. I wish we had fish like alligator gar here in Indiana. There have been a couple of them caught. But they are very few and far between.
Damnnn. Do you share location? Been wanting to fish the bayous in H-town
Every one wants this bad ass planned fishing trip, the best ones are like these
You the Carlos Mencia of fishing thumbnails lol
I don't know who that is so I'm just gonna pretend he's the most awesome person ever
I love your info, shots, knowledge👍👍 But, I most often fear for these fish... they are stressed, exhausted, ready to die from stress... Could you possibly release them a minute earlier?? I would appreciate your help, and share your channel more.... thx. You have great content and delivery.
Bayou Buddy LIFE
What bayou is this ? Did I miss it ?
I loved see you release that gar. Being female they add another generation to the waterways. Be it a male, I'd keep it if it's under 10 feet. Truly a modern day dinosaur, Gar are Beautiful fish...
Where in Houston do u fish
i do want to see the project he has done
If you even do any fishing near baytown lmk.
Hello, I'm called the (Eight Rodd Banditt) 🎣 but my real name is Cory, thanks to you for the videos! 🎣
Mantap Sir n good Job
I live in Houston and I would love to fish here where is this at ?
Wow....mantab. Sumeks Minggu Petualang Palembang hadir disini nih. Moga selalu sehat dan sukses ya. Begitu juga sahabat yang lain semoga juga sukses. Yg penting trus kreatif dan penuh keikhlasan. Amin
What’s the rod and reel combo
Theyre awesome looking fish. And the age of these things...
What kind of reel and rode are you using?
The rod is a Denali Bottom Feeder rod (8 foot, heavy action) and the reel is a Penn Fierce III 8000.
My son tried to comment that he loves the video but i had to explain that simply leaving an L isn't quite the same in comment sections. Lol Nice catch though! Alot of good information here.
Now I'm understanding why eagles have been seen around Braeswood Bayou. I had no idea there were a lot of fish in these Bayous in town.
OK ! Super
Hey I throw it different but I think that your way is more effective than my way of throwing it
My son ..a Veteran...lives in Houston..I would love for him to catch a gar like that...can that be arrainged???
Super bro
What's amazing is how much an Alligator Gar looks like the extinct Ichthyosaurs
Casually catches a big ass gar on demand 😂
where is that
What bayou is this?I been trying to catch my first gar ever
If your in the Houston area I would recommend Oyster creek rather than one of the city bayous for your first gar. Try Oyster creek anywhere in the Sugar Land area and you can catch several different species of gar.
Big baby 👶 😍
Texas state record grass carp is 69 lbs. West Virginia is 71 lbs.
They are similar looking to Sturgeon when they are that big. 🐟
I know a spot in Downtown HTX on Buffalo Bayou. Let me know if youd like to find out about it. Great Thumbnail view
Convergent evolution or what!! I wonder if the diamond scales are coincidence or if they somehow help with the ambush predator lifestyle.
Go Stros!
Is good bro 👍😅
Hello wild I'm you're follower in ur channel. I saw you're fishing rod is very very flower. I think that is very expensive rod.. I am jigger fishing also but my rod is very easy brokin.
