What MONSTER EATS A 14 INCH SWIMBAIT?! 

Great catch...thank you guys for respecting and handling with care.

I am very impressed and absolutely touched that you went into the water to release that beautiful fish. Alligator gar are so very special. Class act all the way man. 👍🏻

the respect you have for that gar was amazing. great catch guys

The Gars you catch are such amazing creatures and you and Henry are such good and respectful fishos. Thanks for taking us along 🙂🦘🦘🦘

I could watch the swim bait all day.

No swearing, no animalistic howling; just genuine excitement and camaraderie.

That lure is my biggest bass 😂

Thats a great fish Brother. I'm envious.

Ty, I truly appreciate you sharing life with us. Took a change of clothes for after Mass this morning and I went to the Santa Fe River in High Springs. Right up the road, and so peaceful. Wisdom 13:1-9 and I love God's wit in the end. I believe that I need to bump up the line to maybe a 20 braid. I'm having 4-6 lbs bass just snap the line on contact. I don't have someone retying my gear and baiting my hooks, and neither do you. 😁 I wish I could send you a picture of the 180 lb'er I snagged at a local lake a few weeks ago. I had to let it go and continue with life. Same week Beachy was hooked 🤔 An hour in the ER and several pieces of treble hooks, and we were good to go 👍 My Dear Mom said that I was rough, tough and hard to diaper. 😅😅 I had physically stop someone to just cut the lure off my face before I drove to the ER. They tried to drive around me and they told me how much it hurt. No duh pumpkin, it already hurts 😏 I was grateful that they were able to get it off, before they drove away like sissies. Try to help whenever you can 👍

Always love seein henry. You guys always work so well together

Gosh what a dinosaur they are, always love the big gar videos! 👍

Love it when you and Henry team up man! Good stuff…..well done gentlemen! That’s was greatness

My Dad had a book about fresh water fishing in North America. The book was probably put together in the late 1950’s. This book had beautiful illustrations as well as a few photos of different fresh water fish. That book had photograph in there of two men that had landed an Alligator Gar on the shore. Seeing it’s size in comparison to the men was astounding. From that point on I would dream of catching an Alligator Gar. This great fish seemed like an elusive dragon from a fairytale. My imagination led me to believe anything could be lurking in the mysterious depths of our lakes and rivers. Seeing you handle this great fish took me back in time. The memories of fishing with my Dad and Grandparents came flooding back to me. Maybe one day I’ll get a chance to see one of these Gar up close. Thanks for sharing. Thank you for respecting the great fish.

That baits bigger than most fish I catch.!! Well done.!

On the swim bait EPIC!!💪🏼

😂😂😂 Can't stop laughing! Who would even think alligator gar would take a swim bait? We are always in for a treat when you team up with Big Fish Eddie. Thanks guys 💪👊

That swim bait is Insane!

Another Monster! I'm loving these giant baits your using, to catch that gar within 1.5 hours is really awesome too! Keep at it Ty!

That was a super cool video. Great catch Henry! Thanks for sharing ty

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!

Kudos for leaving her in the water. Congrats on the catch. 👏 👏

Excellent fishing and release.😀👍♥️🌟

monster pike for the win!

Henry's a very cool guy. Respect his approach to conservation of these fish.

Great fishing guys.

when 1 treble hook isn't enough...you brought 4! 😂 For a minute I thought you and Henry were down in Argentina hooking up with Golden Dorado. Still an amazing fish and so much skill & experience required.

Henry’s a legend! Always love y’all’s videos together! They put that buoy pole in the perfect spot 🤦🏼‍♂️🤣

Man you and Henry always catch the monsters 😮

What an amazing fish!! Great Job, Henry!!

Hilarious. Watching then go back and forth around that post. All you had to do is move boat to the other side. 😂

Who else was yelling “get away from the darn post”?

nice video one of your best

Nice job once again fellas!

beautiful experience and amazing respect for the fish

Great! Good for you both! Thanks for sharing.

I saw your lure and thought you were pranking us with the 12” lure! But damn TY another great catch! Too bad you weren’t on the pole with this giant, I missed your banter or jokes I could have added! 😂 great video! Dave

This is like the "Jackass" movie of fishing and should come with a disclaimer 😂😂 I love it!!

Another awesome video well done

Great job guys!!!

what an amazing catch

Yes Sir My show is on!

Incredible fish, insane respect, mad props , my biggest was closing in on 4 foot, lost her on a large crank bait at the bank, cheers!

What an absolutely gorgeous creature. Such a beautiful fish!

I kept a Warmouth in a fish tank as a kid. I would feed him live blue belly lizards, some almost as long as he was. What I learned was all fish are monsters if given the chance.

My back is sore thinking of throwing 1lb+ baits all day🤣 Hopefully you listened and are taking proper precautions to keep being able to do what you do 👊🏻💪🏻

One night at 2:00am, after checking numerous times at the levy on Cumberland Lake, KY ... my friends and I heard what we were looking for. It sounded like someone was dropping a bowling ball into the water from 3 feet. We pulled out our Penn Salt Water Rod/Reel sets and cast about 18" from the shore. Our 14" hollow plastic lures were working perfectly. On my second cast, I had a monster hit and reeled in the lifeless lure, only to find it had been bitten in half with the rear end missing. I loaded a new lure and cast to shore where my line went at light speed from the shoreline toward the middle of the lake. Several minutes later I landed a 16lb Striped Bass. These things are among the best game fish I have ever taken. Great experience.

Sweet vid. Gentle giants.

Awesome, catch Ty. Great respect .

That was beautiful...thanks for sharing

Amazing fish and lovley realese dude well in man 🤜🤛🐟

What a beast, bro. Never disappoint.

That's a beautiful looking fish....those lures are interesting!

She was beautiful, well done guys!

All I gotta ask for is longer run time on the videos your makin some crazy things happen out there Ty we need more that 10 minutes of it !!!! Great job out there boyz …..

One of the coolest videos ever....to think a gar would take a swim bait is crazy but a 14 inch muskie/pike style swim sit with the hot colors is unreal....I'ma have to try it now

Superb TY awesome I’d be happy to catch a fish as big as the lure you used 😆🎣👍🏼🍻

Nice…..my fave notification.

Dude, ... that was awesome .

that was a sight to see thankyou for that , i really enjoyed watching .

Amazing, appreciate the respect for the fish

Unbelievable and amazing, congratulations.

I can’t wait to catch one of these with you 🤗

THAT. IS. *INSANE!!*

That was pretty cool

You should go fishing with reelingwithrobby one day!

Awesome fish dude and that lure looks incredible although seems like a slight design floor with the hooks catching on it? Still amazing catch guys

Way to go handling the fish!! Also nice catch!

Nice. Great C&R on such a beautiful animal.

I have always heard you wonder why you don't catch the big ones you gotta use big bait!! Well I think you have got it!! I can't believe you got it in after all those times around the pole! Lol awesome catch!

Cheers guys that was great to see UK

Nice one!. Nuff said.

I knew he was messed up in the marker before you even hooked him. Nice fish. Henry barely got excited

I was thinking giant musky. I never thought about a gator gar! Nice catch and nice ring around the Rosie with the pole! 😂

Wow 😮. Whata beautiful Gar

Sweet video

I would absolutely love to catch one of those!

what a unreal fish! woo

just WOW.

wow that was a beast

Tell Henry that I said, thank you for not throwing your old monofilament in the water, I saw him cutting up some old line, I couldn’t tell what he was doing but he put the old filament in his bag instead of the water and that’s awesome.

Hobi memancing yang menyenangkan 👍

Nice!

Very nice

What a beastie! NICE!

Good video

Yes, you're right, that was pretty day'um cool❕❤👏🏻

Well, now we know why they're called NORTHERN Pike. What a beautiful gar! One day, so help me, I'm going down south and tying into a few of those. And thank you so much for respecting the fish like that.

nice! apexfishing got one too now i really want one 🤣🤣

The buoy gave ya more problems than the fish.😂

First thing I've seen caught on one of those savage gear lures that actually looks like it should be eating something that big 😂 That was insane

Is that a Gar fish? If so, what a beauty!! The pattern on the back is like a speckled damascus steel. Exquisite 😉

Damn the size of that gar 😮😊

It feels crazy using a swim bait that big but a few times I’ve been reeling in a small pike, up to 5lb and had them taken by bigger pike.

sick, my mouth dropped.. Chonky Gar!

@4:56 scared the crap outta me lol

Was this at Red Rock in Knoxville/Pella Iowa??? Looks identical

You should do some more crappie fishing!

How to make a huge bait look small 101 😂

O’Henry!

Wowie what a fish that thing was 6.4 wow that's huge reminds of gar a friend hooked below Wirtz Dam tx off of LBJ our friend was way up high on the rocks many years ago and when the line broke it sounded like a 22.
