HE CAUGHT A POISONOUS CATFISH IN HIS DIPNET!!! ruclips.net/video/p_e1w-uqs3A/видео.html
venomous* but yeah. The venom is closer to a honeybee than, say, a rattlesnake, so I wouldn't get too worried about it. Getting stung sucks but for most people there's no risk of any serious harm.
The catfish you weren’t sure about that was in the specimen container is probably a baby channel or a type of bulldog catfish.
The catfish babies look like bullhead cats. The “scary “ bug😄 was probably a dragonfly larvae. Love the ditch fishing videos!
Haha thanks Mike! I think you’re 2 for 2
Bullhead for sure! Pretty ones too.
Water bugs aka toe biters
“It’s warm and dry out”
“Storm coming - typical day in Florida”
Nothing like battling the elements to see what you can catch - and always fun to watch!
Always appreciate the support Garrett!
native, looks like a baby Bullhead, they have hundreds of fry
Love the swamp darker, bluefin, and madtoms.
Darters are beautiful and diverse freshwater natives. Have no idea why they aren’t popular in the American aquarium community other than that they’re native. I’m in Kentucky and there are seemingly dozens of species that look like multicolored gems occurring in Ohio river tributary watersheds.
They're pretty popular with a niche group of anglers calling their sport "microfishing." Darters are hard to catch!
Those look like maybe Bullheads
I think you’re right
Wow! The snail eggs are crazy. I live in central Florida and a local lake has apple snails. I have never seen a clutch that big. Love the video. Looks like fun.
Yea those were some massive clutches, thanks for checking out the video!!
damn, this makes me want to live in florida
You can get native little fish all over the US if you don't mind doing some research and quite a few unsuccessful attempts (that is, go to whatever slow-moving creek and take your chances). That said, minnows can get kinda big. Gambusia are all along the SE coast and Gulf coast, and they're great! They seem to domesticate pretty well and have cute personalities.
I looked these up a few years ago. They're called "killifish" and like mollie's and guppies there are several varieties.They like thick patches of aquatic vegetation like hydrilla or peppergrass that I often scoop up with my net.
bullheads are my second favorite native fish second only to the Rock Bass
Beautiful Killifish! I envy you guys in Florida who can collect tropical fish outside!
Thanks for checking out the video Mridul! We are definitely lucky!
@@WildFishTanks Thank you for making the video as well!
Is this legal? I'm interested.
4:04 thats a dragon fly larvae hehe.
I have a 75 gallon planted tank that I started tinkering with around 18 months ago. Im more interested in growing beautiful plants rather than blowing money on colorful fish. I took a trip to the local creek around the 6 month mark and caught a bucket full of these killifish. They've really helped my planted system and they remind me of swimming dogs. Lots of personality and always active. They almost never use bottom 1/3 of the water column. They are jumpers and so a fully enclosed lid is a must have. I really like these fish because they don't root up my plants and easy to find
Nice Bullhead Catfish.
Dude! so jealous of the nature on your doorstep! good to see you back man.
Glad to be back! Thanks for sticking around, should have a steady flow for at least a bit
@@WildFishTanks no problem! Look forward to it 👍
One love.
💚
Return of the King
haha thanks for sticking with me during my absence, good to be back
@@WildFishTanks I’m just happy your alive
I enjoy netting moreso than rod and reel fishing.
It always looks like so much fun to go out and see what you can catch. Some cool fish there.
Good to see you! Yea man, it's always fun no matter what comes up in the net
I know that this was on in October but I think that the black catfish that you guys caught is a hornpout or bullhead catfish.
Glad to see you back on RUclips, love the vids
Thanks Cain! I appreciate your patience while I was gone, good to be back!
Catfish looks exactly like Hank, my brown bullhead. I do aquatic weed removal and they get pulled up in the weeds occasionally so I started a tank for my wild caught fish. I have him and a Eastern Black Nosed Dace as well as some fry that may get eaten lol.
Looks like a native bullhead..... Really small baby one!? They stay fairly small but definitely native and really cool fish for a native biotope!!!
So glad to see you back!!! I know life keeps all of us busy but I really missed your videos!!! Looks fun , I really love to try catching least killies!!!
Thanks for the kind words and I appreciate your patience while I was gone. Should have a steady flow for a while ;)
Glad you’re. Back making videos
Appreciate that, good to be back! Thanks for your patience
The small unidentified catfish appears to be a baby Brown Bullhead Catfish (Ameiurus nebulosus) I have collected many in my day in both upstate NY and Pennsylvania.
The madtom catfish aren't poisonous, they're venomous. Unlike the typical bullheads, flatheads, channels and blue catfish, they have venom sacs at the base of their stiff spines that deliver venom when you are spined by them. Currently I have native Ohio brindled madtoms in my tank with rainbow and banded darters, spotfin shiners and blunt nose minnows. The biggest problems you have from being spined by catfish is bacterial infection.
The bug is a giant water bug, they actually can fly but seldom do, they eat fish and tadpoles and put the hurtin on ya when they bite!
i'm fairly certain that catfish is a yellow bullhead based on the fact that it has yellow whiskers on the bottom jaw
welcome back. You have a cool content, stay on youtube
Bullhead cats!
That wide head is a dead give away.
I think that those little black catfish are either black madtoms or baby bullheads
Beautyfull fish!
I think what you i.d.'d as bluefin killifish are actually bluntnose minnows. But I could be wrong.
I was wrong, you were right. They look kinda similar except for the colors.
Great video 👍 That was a fun, productive day 💪🏼
I love and miss these videos ❤️❤️
I appreciate you checking them out, thanks for your patience 💚💚
Used to work at a pet shop where we got a lot of feeder ghost shrimp and those little cat fish would occasionally come in with them. I raised one to about 6 or so inches. Really entertaining fish, but they can get massive.
That larger one is the same as the babies.
I'd go with Bullhead also
Aye ma, go to the forest with water fall for guppy’s and make sure it’s rain then look in rain Puttels because I caught a golden wonder killifish
Looks like a baby bullhead catfish
This is cool. I'm in SC, wonder what I could catch..?
Beautiful!!
Looks like so much fun!!!
Don! Hope all is well up north, good to "see" you!
@@WildFishTanks All is good up here, I've been trying to get down to Florida for a while now BUT I can't travel to a state on the covid list. I hope this stuff clears out soon, I need some Florida sunshine!!!
this is freaking awesome. Gotta appreciate the small species and their colors.
btw that catfish looks like a bullhead catfish. not sure what species, you would have to look at the chin whisker colors.
as for the bugs, I saw a leech and dragonfly and damsel fly nymphs
Near me in Parrish, FL I have a spot where I've caught dozens of Jewel Cichlids....You find those in your area??
If you think those killifish are flashy
I catch orange throat river darters you should see how stunning the males of this species are
That's one thing Florida is lacking is the really cool colorful darters, would love to make a trip a little north to find some. Where are you at?
I’ve caught them in Henrietta OK and chetopa KS
Northeast Oklahoma and southeast Kansas
I'm in the Tampa area. Love your videos. How can I tag alone with you one day. I will love to go collecting with you.
Biggie might be a bullhead, yellow?
That was a young black Bullhead catfish
Would love to see the fishes you catch in tanks! Subbed!
Thanks Adnan! I have a couple videos including one with the bluefin killifish (ruclips.net/video/-7PpKfYbIcg/видео.html) and more will be coming
@@WildFishTanks Would be really cool if you set up a huge tank with all the native fish(micro-ones) and plants you can collect.
This is so cool!
As beautiful as an pet-store fish, easily
If you sold those as a locale from that creek I would love to breed for pure local for that bright yellow
Very cool catches
Thanks for checking out the video
Bluefin Killies are my favorite native killifish. I hope to keep some someday.
They’re gorgeous, especially in a planted tank
I have 6 in a tank! The males are so colorful when they flash each other!
Most likely a brown bullhead catfish
I think you’re right, appreciate the ID help
@@WildFishTanks of course man love your videos btw
Hello sir! Can you give me tips where to find and catch wild fish for aquariums?
That unidentified "bug" looks like a dragonfly larva to me
Do you guys get Bullheads down there?
is this the mini net?
Where do you get your nets
I love this content
Thanks Lander! Appreciate you watching!
Nice ...I want to join your team ...
What type of net you are using?
I can’t seem to find that same exact one
Where did you get the nets and thin viewing container?
The nets are from Jonah’s aquarium and called “the perfect dipnet”. The container is actually a small vase meant for flowers or decorating
it looks like a hoplo catfish i could be wrong and probably am lol
I just got a group of blue fins
They are awesome fish
Where do you get these? I also live in Florida and collect wild killifish. Looking for red face minnows and bluefin killis. I also have a really good spot for golden topminnows.
Those colors look a lot like white could minnows
What a great find!
There is definitely some resemblance for sure
I think your bug was a very chunky baby dragonfly
Haha I think your right. I need to get better at the critter IDs
@@WildFishTanks ever used the iNaturalist app? It’s free and knows just about everything:)
Bugs are more my thing that individual fish species but I got into your channel after watching videos of people removing former pet species type invasives :)
So you never catch any small Barbs,Danios or Rasboras? Tetras? None are invasive?..Interesting that large Cichlids are everyplace in South Florida..but none or few of the small common aquarium fish are making inroads.
Haven't come across any barbs, danios, tetras etc myself but I do know some people in central FL that have found them. Haven't heard much about the large cichlids around here but have found some invasive fish like acara cichlids and common plecos. I'm hoping some of these smaller natives become more popular
That's a black bullhead catfish
the creature is a dragonfly nymph
Bullhead catfish bro
do I need to have a permit to do that?
Caudal? If you meant the tail fin.
I can't help you with the fish names ID though.
Yes, that’s what I was going for. Caudal. Thanks, Have to remember next time
Even if you didn't sell them from wild if you bred for them that would be amazing
I do sell some, haven't listed them as a specific locale but thats not a bad idea
Dragonflies larva
Ever thought of selling some of them fish online?
I have :), WildFishTanks.com
Florida seems to have a lot of exotic species in its waterways. I guess people just dump them and they turn out to be the next invasive species. It's also got exotic lizards and snakes. I watched a tv program about Burmese Pythons and the problems they are causing. Scary stuff.
Unfortunately that is the case. Glad we still have some pretty awesome native stuff but some of the native stuff gets predated on by the invasive for sure
Myself wish that we in Sweden could find aquarium fish in the wild. :(
Only Swedish fish in the wild over there?
@@WildFishTanks we have perch, pike, trout, salmon and other fish.
but I grow aquarium fish myself. like guppy's yellow tigers and ancistrus pleco.
Just curious, do you need a license to be out there?
Yes, in Florida you need a standard fishing license. These species are considered least concern and non-Gamefish so they’re not regulated too heavy but still check with local laws and regulations where you live
Bullhead cat
1ST 💪👍
Appreciate you Rob!
That catfish is so dangerous bro
it took my hand off 😮😂
Will get about a foot in length
Ooof, too big for me and my tanks
Not a channel cat , ch.cats have v tails
I call them mudfish Hahahahahaha
Never new there real name
Protect yourself from pathogens and leeches - don't do this with any open sores on your body and, if you're man enough, wear pantyhose.
this type of catfish killed my snakehead when they were young.. territorial fish and aggressive
