There are many fishing spots in Texas. Bluegabe, a popular YouTuber who loves fishing, recently went to the Trinity River and caught an incredible fish! The Trinity River holds the record for being the longest river in the world within a single state, stretching 710 miles across Texas.
The Trinity River starts not far from the Red River in northern Texas. Steep cliffs on the southern side of the Red River mark where the Trinity River begins, distinct from the rest of the river’s course. In a video watched by over 16 million people, two anglers haul a massive piece of bait to the river.

In just a minute or two, the guys hook something huge. One of them knows this fishing spot well, while Gabe just came to Texas for this trip. The guide knows exactly where to cast for a catch. They weren’t ready for what they reeled in.
After catching a fish, he understood the importance of staying calm. Panicking can increase your chances of losing the fish. The fishing gear is made to handle pressure and make fighting fish easier. He steadily reels in the massive river fish until it tires out.

Around seven minutes in, we see the angler pulling the fish out of the water. It’s a surprise catch for them! With pride, he declares it’s his first catch from a river, and he couldn’t be happier.

After fashioning a makeshift harness for the fish using fabric, Gabe wades into the water with it. The creature in question is a Gar. Gars are known for their elongated, dart-shaped bodies. They typically live in calm, slow-moving waters like estuaries and bayous.

In these settings, these fish often sunbathe on the water’s surface, resembling logs. Their height can range from 2 to 4 feet, with their size mainly influenced by their surroundings. The biggest longnose gar can reach up to 6 feet in length and weigh around 80 pounds!

This type of fish is found in various places, not only in North America. They live in the Rio Grande, the Gulf of Mexico, and even in permanent waters near the northern United States. These fish thrive particularly well in river basins in Texas, Michigan, and Wisconsin.

The comments on Gabe’s video praise him and his actions! One person writes, “Wow, I’ve never watched your videos before, but watching you release that salmon warmed my heart. Respect for valuing life and giving that beautiful fish another chance in the water.”
