Protecting My Town From RODENTS OF UNUSUAL SIZE (CATCH AND COOK) 

They don’t trap them anymore? Back in the 70’s and 80’s I use to trap nutria, mink and raccoons…i sold the pelts green to houma fur company. They are good to eat as well…..I ran 150 traps daily…..3 month season…..I took out thousands of them in my day. They are very invasive and destroy the marsh. Enjoyed the video Jarred…..hope you and yours had a Merry Christmas. 🙏🎄

Came for the Princess Bride reference, stayed for the rat killing. Nice job guys.

Last week in Biloxi Marsh WMA fishing I noticed tracks on the bank dragging a tail… nutria! Made a call to WMA office requesting guidance on harvesting nutria in this WMA and after a brief discussion they told me they would call me back. About two hours later a call was received stating that all state and WMA rules governing hunting apply and during duck seasons only shot and weapon approved for duck are permitted. I had specifically asked about .22 cal rifle and was told that would be legal outside any duck season. I eat most sm animals and feel nutria will be an excellent addition to freezer meat. Will let you know how I do… Great video… keep them coming!

I could see all those Nutria thinking, “As you wish!”

Thank you for explaining why the Nutria Rats are such a problem in Louisiana.

Merry Christmas 🎄🎄🎄 and Happy New Year. May God continue to bless your family.

Merry Christmas thanks for the teaching about nutrition

I love your videos man. Moved to Belle Chasse from north Floridian 4 and a half years ago and have been Hunting deer and fishing for Reds and speckled trout ever since. Love it all. Love the Louisiana outdoors. Would love to meet you some time. Keep up the good videos. I watch them all.

Great video! It would be interesting to see an unlisted video of you cleaning and breaking down the nutria. Also do you clean all of them for future use or do some hit the compost pile?

That actually looks pretty good. The only thing missing is some good ole mushrooms.

I'm surprised RU-vid let you air the footage of shooting them. Very neat listening and didn't know you can cook them up so nice.

Love what you do, invasive species need you and your friends. 😀

Looks like fun, can't wait to try it myself. Great video and boy did that spaghetti look good.

Almost a Rutria bolognese. Absolutely loved it!

Love the nutria videos brother Jerry! Keep them coming

Hello there Jared like to wish your family a Merry Christmas and happy New Year 🇺🇸🙏

Hope You have an amazing New year🎉

Outstanding video my man ! Thanks

M8 your rats are bigger than ours in western Oregon . They do make all kinds of delicious meals with the right seasonings, do you also use them as nail for gators ? Keep up the good work. God bless y'all.

Came across from Yawt Yawt - Loving your channel

Hope you had a Merry Christmas.

I went nutria hunting in freshwater marsh between Houma and Morgan city and harvested quite a few.....only problem is when I stepped off the front of the mud boat I sunk up to my ASS.......LITERALLY.....My knee boot stayed under 2 feet of muck after I finally pulled my leg out the quicksand like muck......so from that point on we only shot the ones near banks edge that could be retrieved from boat......Made an awesome sauce piquant as meat is beautiful

Hope you had a good Christmas

Top notch man great food great videos!!

the carmalization on the bottom is called "the grautan " in french.. its what makes the gravy..

I clicked because of The Princess Bride reference! Respect

I need to put up a sign next to my property, which is next to a bike path, which is next to a year round stream... No ROUSs. Big red circle with a slash through it....

Lived down here all my life and have never had the chance to do this. It looks like a fun time and something i hope i get the chance to do.

Nutria fur makes good felt for hats.

I came over and subscribed at the persistent promotion from Yawt Yawt when he was out with yall shootin nutria rats and eating spaghetti.

It’s already too late to fully eradicate nutria. Hell, I’ve seen a bunch of them all they up in Oregon and Washington, that’s quite a ways from Louisiana.

lolol love the RUS's reference lololol. great hunt!

Coming from yawtyawt channel. Enjoyed. Happy New Year.

Makes me sad how few people realize the Princess Bride reference... Inconceivable.

Just came over from Yawt Yawt's channel and subscribed. Thanks for showing the "cook" part. (Yawt's video wasn't "catch and cook", it was "catch and eat". 😅) FWIW, that sauce looked great to me. I'd eat a (wild) rat over a bug any day! 😊

Nutria Zombie King is coming soon

Great hunting

That looks fabulous! Just a tip, use a splash of wine to deglaze that pan for more flavor. And Rao"s Marinara (even though it's from NY) is the bees knees😄

That’s quite the fire swamp you’re in.

Excellent job! And in terms of quantity of meat, you could easily bag the equivalent of a full-size Whitetail buck. Nutria meat is quite tasty, nothing strong about it.

I had never heard of these rats until I watched you on Yawt Yawt's channel. Those things are huge! Kind of reminds me of Princess Bride. LOL

Princess Bride reference.....love it

Yummo!!😃Nutria Rat Mac and Cheese..😋😋…..LOL

I'm surprised the gators let them get that populated. You'd think swimming on the surface they'd be the perfect gator meal.

Hey Jared and buddies,there is some sharp shooting goin on there💥👍. Dang Varmints are Nasty! What do they taste like? JO JO IN VT 💞

Mmmmmm, maybe you can open a rat burger chain , kidding. Looks like a way to fill some time when the birds aren’t flying.

Great video! Yawt Yawt sent me here and way to go, knock out the nutria population!

I cooked nutria for Yankees from Pennsylvania they loved it

Yea, that looked good but I'm not eating no Rat!!

Yea....them ROUSs are hard on the 'vironment!🤗

Why don't alligators thin the herds?

I would give it a try, I’m sure if you were starving it would be Delicious! Hear the Nutra taste like Rabbit.

Keep up the good work

Made sausage one time it was great. Fried the front legs like chicken and couldn't get enough. Best fried chicken ever

Bloody things make a hell of a mess. At least you get some free food though. What are you hitting them with? 2 3/4 BB?

Wow , those things are as big as whistle pigs !

Couldn't help it but I had to ask if you have ran into the Dread Pirate Wesley lately? Lol.

I'd like to see you make Nutra Chile. And tan Nuta skin and make gloves.

What other meat can you compare the nutria to in taste

We chased them in Dulac on foot years ago. We caught one baby.🤣

As farmers in Manchuria say…a frozen toad sitting in sun in may a good harvest of rice if January awaits…

Maybe a gafe to reach out to grab them

Does your state not require you to police your brass? I was surprised to see you didn’t have cartridge collector attachments

looks good

Ola mi bro que buena casería saludos desde Arizona mi bro

I bet it would make a good jerky... maybe teriyaki

Hell yeah brother

Good eating right there !

Good job

Wonder if the gators are getting bigger with all that food?

Ya'll need some retriever dogs to go get them rats.

there is a hair in the meat, bottom left corner of the at @13:04

This is the only dude I know who can make rodent spaghetti look appetizing. I would’ve ordered that at a restaurant. With garlic bread, of course.

Mama Mia bigger than a small dog America has all kinds of creatures

You should do guided Hunting

These nutria look to be the same species as African grass cutters.

Have a question is it easy to determine the difference between the nutria and muskrat when hunting..me I'd be afraid of shooting the wrong animal??

I’ve never ate one but I bet they are better than a duck or a goose!!!

How deep is the water?

Top a caçada em👍

I was waiting on you to say It tastes like chicken 😅

Ohh Yeah you maybe can make a Stew out of it

I knew a guy who'd make a stew out of nutria rat.

Hello there Jared I was just wondering if you could make a sausage patties from them

Are you required to use non-lead shot, when shooting them w/ a shotgun?

Greetings new subscriber from yawt yawt collab. do you have a clean vid on nutria or does Big Brother frown on such?

What size shot?

What size shot you use on those guys,some look pretty big

Do you have to use non-toxic shot? What size shot?

what size shot do you use for those ugly things

I remember i caught a nutria with my bare hands

Do you use the rats for gator bait

Not enough gators lol

Assuming you are using shotguns, what size shot you using?

Can we see you clean then cook 😮

Do the gators or raptors eat them?

Does gators eat these?

they used to be highly prized for thier fur...many people used to trap them.

Them duck loads are a bit over kill dont ya think?

What does it taste like
