For sixteen days each winter, hunters venture out on a vast frozen lake armed with seven-foot spears on a quest for a prehistoric fish. Danger exists in every direction. A single miscalculation can cost their lives. "The Frozen Chosen" follows these brave hunters on a sporting event that tests their incredible courage and their patience. #PBSAmerica #TheFrozenChosen #Fishing #Arctic

I grew up in Shawano where they spawn. I used to pet 9 footers back in the 70's and was always exciting every year to wait for their arrival.

I’m not into fishing but this video reminded me, at a time when I really needed it, what is great about America. Kevin and his granddad are adorable! ❤❤

Most delicious fish I've ever had. Partner caught a 40 lb fish in SF Bay 30 years ago and I still remember. Like a cross between a white fish and lobster.

How does it taste? Texture and flavor? I spear because I love the taste of fish. Sure it's fun but my heart is attached to my stomach.

I heard that before caviar became a delicacy lake sturgeon were so plenty full that a person could almost cross rivers across their backs in WI waters. It's amazing how fads wipe out species of fish and game.

Who says you can’t control people. Setting fish limits, deer hunting limits, etc, they do whatever is needed. And yes maybe a few will not follow rules, but just so most people do makes it better. It should be the same for fishing the oceans, setting limits will save all species from extinction. Set limits that each person is allowed to eat one lobster a year, most people will follow the rules. And it will save lobsters or whatever from extinction.

Seems such a pity to catch a 125yr old fish why not just take a pic & release it back ? 🤔

@cruisepaige Жыл бұрын

I know, but it is eaten and the season is only 16 days.

Are they wiped out yet

Give it time.

No, it is clearly highly regulated and the season is only 16 days long. Did you not see them breeding and putting baby sturgeon back in the lake?

Its not the sturgeon fish they r obsessed about its the bragging rights of having caught the big one & being the town celebrity for a day like this reporter said. The stabber said its respect but u dont killed something u respect u catch it take a pic & then release it. The ending says it all when They said they got stabbers dont even eat the fish, plonking the fish on the bar, pouring liquor on it & kissing the fish does that sound like respect? 😳 why not let the 100 year old fishes live instead not much unique fishes left in the wild, preserve & nurture not decimate your heritage unique to your country? 🤔
