You dimwit thats a watersnake

You guys got an officer who enjoys fishing and relates.

You need more oil in your pan😅

why? i mean you could have got a sendwich or made your self some other snakc but no you have to go out kill a inocent snake and her babies for a dumb ass youtube video? i really hope karma gets back to you one day

Oyster toad

Broo i just caught my first big gar and im about to eat it i never had fish before or even caught one and cooked one so im so hyped to actually try it mine is literally the same size as yours but thx for the video cuz i didn't know how to cook it at first my grandpa helped me cut it up and it was hard but not to bad i just used his sharp knife and it took a while to get the job done but im about to eat it i hope its good 😂

Tomorrow Ill have my boy cook 3 bass for me,never had it,the only reason im having it is because i caught 5,and 3 of them just completely killed the hook,i believe its because of the time of year summer day after, a rain storm the day before,so well see tomorrow,how good they are

Looking for the one comment bashing eat bass, I have yet to see one don’t be so quick to judge lol, everyone here loves eating any fish

That is a Diamondback water snake ( non venomous) quite harmless. Look at the thumbnail photo, the mouth is pink. A cottonmouth/water moccasin’s mouth is WHITE as cotton. Snake in the thumbnail photo has no fangs. The belly pattern is wrong for a cottonmouth/ water moccasin. They have a dark brown/crème colored heck board belly pattern. Snake in the photo has a brown blotched broken line pattern on a crème colored belly. A cottonmouth/ water moccasin also has a chocolate stripe on the upper part of its head that runs from the nose, thru the eye and to the back of his head. Cottonmouth/ water moccasins also have a raised eye brow that shades it’s eyes. Cottonmouth/water moccasins also have shorter stubby tails. This one in the photo and video has a long slim tail. This guy has no clue about snakes. I’ve caught more cottonmouth/water moccasins in my 66 years than this guy has obviously seen. I’ve studied snakes all my life, a hobby of mine. I’m here to tell you this guy don’t know what he is talking about. Also venom is injected like snake bites and bee stings. Poison has to be ingested, like eating it. You cannot be harmed by eating the flesh of a venomous snake.

So did any one catch why he was making the video by Chan 😂

I’ve ate them a few times. Eat them fresh and they are kind of like chicken and fish. Meat was always hardy. Tastes better than large mouth bass

If this was in Florida, ONLY Fish and Wildlife Officer can ask for fishing license.

YOU COOKED IT AND PROCESSED IT WRONG

That is definitely not a cotton mouth 😂

I have never understood guys who go bass fishing they never seem to keep them so why go fishing for it. If im not eating it im not fishing for it.

Definitely a turtle just pulling but not taking it for real

The bag limit is two peas per day, with only one longer than 17 inches you could have kept that first one would have been way better.

Gross

Nonvenemous.

It is SO obvious youve never skinned a snake before lmao.

Where is this. I know Florida but where

Cook the food without seasoning to get the true taste doesn't make sense cooking it with seasoning.

As long as you clean it right. Take the mud vane. Filet it. Got to be fresh. Best fresh water fish there is.

Aye man, it’s been years! I wanna see you catch and cook more trash fish so I don’t have to!😂😂

Deep fry that shit in Louisiana fish fry next time

Keep the bowfin alive until u cook it or the meat gets mushy .

Why would you anyone a fish you know that’s going to die! At the very least… bait 😂

Gar roe is toxic to humans

Fish are meant to be eatin especially white fish like bass. You dont like it too bad. Get over it. Good video and dont apologize for eating what you work to catch

The eggs are toxic just fyi

This is how these situations should be handled. Too many cops have the you must obey me or else attitude. Not like you are a criminal.

Also, when you tore that piece of meat in half it didnt even look like bowfin. Bowfin isnt flaky like that🙄 im guessing since you didnt remove the red meat on the back of fillets it tasted like shit so you scrapped the footage or something and used something more appetizing

Filleting these fish take alitte skill and knowledge lol. You definitely did it wrong and it probably tasted like trash.. if your gonna clean it you need to give it some love kinda like channel cat meat. 1. Sharp ass knife is need so your not tearing through the soft flesh.... 2. Leave alittle meat on the skin while your filling it so you dont have any dark red or brown meat from the skin side of the fillets otherwise it will most definitely taste like shit. 3 keep it 100000 feet away from water, meaning dont rinse the blood and slime off untill youve got your dry batter ready. 4. Keep it cold as fuck the entire time. 5. Once you clean the fillets immediately dice up into bite size chunks and its ready to be dowced in hot sauce, seasoned, and dropped into your batter and oil. All this needs to be done fairly quick or youll end up with some nasty nuggets. If done right it's actually pretty rewarding☺️ the texture of the meat is like canned tuna almost but its not dry. Its also not very flaky like other game fish. I personally think it tasts like chicken when using Louisiana hot sauce, slap your momma Cajun seasoning and danos original With shore lunch beer batter. Dont use any water or beer, these fillets will come out shity if you dont use a dry batter..

Thank you so much I will try it ASAP

I like bass and I eat them all the time.

This video was a while back maybe you could review the new spincaster

On gar meat, the larger your gar gets it tends to be a bit less flakey. At leas from what I’ve noticed.

I wouldn't eat that fish even if you paid me 1Million dollars..

He's not a chef he is a pyromaniac 😂😂

Im not cooking a PB from the city lakes, im going to the Glades 😂.

If you want a better texture for the meat the fish must be alive because the meat breaks down as soon as the fish dies

Year 4 still hoping you are ok and will one day restart making videos! 205k followers a are still waiting!

WHy did you only put one fuse in the add a fuse?

I try these and it nasty. People told me they tasty they not. 🤢🤮

That thing is nowhere near 18 or19 in. What are you talking about.

They are actually similar, but have some significant differences. Flat needle fish usually have dark bars and a thinner body than a houndfish. Needlefish are slender, ranging from 3.0 to 95 cm (1.2 to 37.4 in) in length. Hound fish is growing up to 5 feet (1.5 m) in length and 10 pounds (4.5 kg) in weight.

Tamils has no taste at all

Great video, nothing wrong with eating bass, there are plenty of them in the lakes and rivers everywhere I lived. If I do eat them I usually eat the smaller ones about 12" long and in the early spring when the water is colder they usually taste a little better.

Thanx, God bless

Bro! They are definitely fun fish to catch. They put up a fight and setting the hook can be a challenge. Bowfins are fun too…never ate one. You should do a catch clean and cook with bowfins.
