I actually laughed out loud 🤣🤣 Saying Jeremy Wade “was incredibly lucky” when he caught that tiger fish!! Haha, no… of all people, Jeremy catching the exact fish he was targeting isnt exactly luck… he may have been lucky he took the precautions he did to not get killed… but his skill and knowledge far out weighs his luck when catching rare fish!! (For anyone who’s unfamiliar with him… he is the host of River Monsters)
Yes many many reruns on Animal Planet I actually saw the segment when he caught that fish it died and all the villagers rejoice he typically does not kill fishy catches
Sharks are not killers they simply taste their food first meaning you going to loose a limb over a taste nip then they will go on. They don't like the taste of humans.
Jeremy is the most patient fisherman going, I loved watching his fishing expeditions, & I remember he caught a bull shark in the outback of Australia, & seeing if piranas actually attack people who had their blood in the water, & they didn't attack him at all, but he can do that stuff on his own!! Great information.
Me and my dad used to snorkel dive in Tasmania couple years ago before his health deteriorated. He had the spear gun and I had a sling, dad came out onto the pier at the end of our dive all weak and saying he felt faintly. According to him he was shooting Flathead and Trumpeter when he saw some eyes and the outline of (what he thought) a fish nose in the sand, shot it, and immediately felt like crap. Told me he shot a Star Gazer thinking it was a large Flathead and only after we got home we learned that they can produce an electrical discharge as a means of self defense. During this time he'd not long had invasive heart surgery to apply a stent in his coronary artery. Really lucky the discharge wasn't excessively strong.
As a kid the scariest fish to me was a bullhead, especially because one of our favorite fishing holes required us to walk threw 100 tards of reeds and we did this barefoot. The risk of stepping on one and having the dorsal spine pop through the bottom of your foot was all too real and a frequent experience but it never stopped us. Fishing can be a hell of drug...
I catch bullheads as bait for flathead catfish, my favorite live bait I just trim the spines and what not. Also kept one with a school of longest sunfish in my koi pond did like a “native” koi pond thing
Even better I raised a Goliath tigerfish for 7 years and reached over 3'! It passed away last week unexpectedly and unfortunately for me, that situation broke my heart! Regardless the animal is very smart and being an apex predator it's not surprising. When it ate, it would wait a few seconds before attacking it's food, which was tilapia fillets. Regardless the animal gets a bad wrap I can speak from experience keeping that creature, 10 years with African tigerfish, 7 yrs with him, is that they are big pansies and get upset and freak out over the smallest irritation, the fish is incredibly smart on top of recognizing me over anyone else. I am very blessed to have had the freshwater "great white" in my possession and what a fantastic creature it is and the amount of time, patience and understanding of that animal will only aid in it thriving in one's hands!
@@lukex1337 no I have a cylinder shaped 2k gal fiberglass tank. Same thing one would do for a shark I did the same for him. It also had a small window for visibility so it wouldn't get spooked by external movements. They don't do well with overhead shadows.

As a kid in Hawaii I swam and surfed and fished where there were tons of needlefish and I never saw one jump out of the water, and they are very passive underwater. I liked to see them - they're so long and skinny!
@@facultykid it's all about following certain formulae to pull an audience, fact always comes last or not at all. Apologies if your weren't being sarcastic. Entertaining but hardly factual.
"fun" fact :once a girl swam close to shore and died it was found that a needle fish ran straight through her perfective goggles and into the brain through the eye and she wasn't the only person to die to these fish in that area
I'll tell you a Story told by a Fisherman. My Grandpa used to drive up to Canada from New York City (Bronx) to go fishing in Canada for Pike and Muskie. He told me that he saw one snaps the legs of a Deer and the Fish (I'm not sure which one species) feasted and tore it apart! He said he wouldn't have believed it, if he didn't see it for himself.
The thing is pirahna isn't that agressive and are at bottom of the food chain. But tiger fish are not just agreesive, they are faster and also jumps out of water colling with other humans heavily injuring or killing them. Tiger fish is just much more aggressive and at the top. Even small tiger fish which lives in group like pirahna but still bigger than pirahna are well known to attack boats. Pirahna are just overrated for something that literally gets hunted by almost predator fish in Amazon
I live in Finland and let me tell you when a pike that is at least 5 Kilos bites down on your finger it hurts really bad bc there is teeth in the top section that point inwards you can't really get the finger out if it chops it
They are all over florida.they do not attack people or swarm to the lights as mentioned. They usually run from the spot light. Rarely ever see them jump.
As a southerner, I've caught many alligator gar. Once you get them skinned out, you end up with large fillets of white boneless meat that has just enough gristle in it to hold together on the grill without a basket. And old Vietnamese woman taught me how to skin them out and cook them. They're really quite tasty and worth the work!
I was born in Japan and came to San Diego on The USS Enterprise across the equator. Talk about helpless in the largest body of water you have ever seen. As far as you could see, nothing but ocean. It had just been release as a Nuclear Carrier and was sparkling clean. What a beautiful ship.
If you've been across on a ship you know the ocean is huge. Also, did you see glowing stuff in the water? I did, one night, it was pretty cool. Glowing blue and green, and the occasional red. I love the ocean.

Very cool I raised a gatf to over 3' in 7 years. Unfortunately it passed away this past week and I am still brokenhearted over it's passing and what a phenomenal creature they are!
Sorry to hear that... I'm looking forward to stocking my tank with nothing but predator fish. I been raising gatf & hoplias aimara wolf fish for a while now.
Yea Ikno. I lost expensive fish at the beginning….it depends on tank size & hiding spots. I have 9 tanks so if they don’t tolerate one another I’ll switch them around.
thank you dear WATOP team I acually kinda like needle fish and will try to use this illuminating knowledge next spring to my advantage ....gotta get some support drones equipped with ultra strong led panels to light up my fishing spots....or just stepping around in the shallows with a flashlight attached to a fork.....
Have to agree, wiith viewers, Jeremy Wade is a LEGENDARY angler in EXTREME fishing🎣. HE ROCKS!! His catch and release policy just won my ♥ heart. Im seriously hooked on his RIVER MONSTORS series, he's the REEL DEAL!! 😉
Down here in the south (USA) we have catfish that get super big , and they will eat anything . The spoonbill catfish I've seen being caught back in the 80s were hardly ever under four feet long , most were five to six feet in length, that's a big fish to be snag fishing for lol . But the meat is the best catfish you'll ever eat . If you don't get eaten by one of it's cousins first lol.
I ocean fished off the coast of Newport, Oregon and we caught tons of Ling Cod. They really are crazy facinating fish. I always thought Wolf eels were terrifying but apparently they have shown to be friendly to divers. I thought they would have an attitude like a wolverine by the looks of them. (An other dangerous fish I saw Jeremy Wade interact with giant Pacific Long fin eels in New Zealand or Papuan New Guinea. I can't remember the exact location. The Giant Pacu, and the Giant Gouch catfish have attacked humans as well)
We eat *Monk fish* here in Norway, can get 2 meters long with 2 third is the head! And it *IS* ugly, and the teeth pointing backwards. Divers here go down and stick their knife through the head! Hehehehehe...... And with that face, no wonder the christians warned people that it was the devil itself that was charging them! 😂The taste is beautiful though.
It was New Zealand. I have seen a swamp pool next to a meat processing plant in Hokitika where hundreds of these things clustered looking up at us expectantly. Some were huge and it cured me of any inclination to swim.
I’ve caught tons of lingcod off the Queen of Hearts out of Princeton, Harbor/Half Moon Bay. CA, and I just shrug my shoulders. Nothing much about them. Now, on the other hand, my sister-in-law caught a massive marlin all by herself and that has been the envy of my life ever since!!!😂😂😂
I remember fishing with my Dad in the Chobe (next to the Okavango). We were after catfish, light tackle, maybe 3kg max. Anyway we caught a load of Tigerfish tackle, the hook was about 4 inch, with 1/8 inch metal trace and nylon line like a bootlace. We kept the tackle and decided not to go after Tigerfish that day.
Im in the pacific and Needlefish are epic! We dont fear them lol. When I scuba dive or even just swim I get a school of them just happily swimming along side me. We love it! Also theyre great natural warning signs to any sharks close by, suddenly the Needlefish will just scatter.. THATS when you have to look out!
The scariest thing on River Monsters, to me, was the Humboldt squid. It rams into you and stabs you with tentacle spikes until you're too tired to swim and you drown.
I used to go fishing for alligator gar We tried to catch this 7 ft gar with a net but we couldn't get to the net soon enough If the water is deep enough they'll come right up to the shore This was at locking damn 13 in Barling or Fort Smith Arkansas
Man: Wife, bring me my shield and sword! Woman: Oh, are you going fishing, dear? I hope the people in the South Pacific have been practising their phalanx formation.
@@Absbor There are other examples of friendly sharks, like lemon sharks. Humans are generally not prey for sharks, bites happens because the creatures are curious.
@@Ikajo I'm not sure it matters if you're prey or getting bit out of curiosity... Maybe the last one you just die a little less often. A calf muscle torn off out of curiosity, meh, that'll buff out.
Hold up ✋ 🤚 Gar fish ARE eaten in south Louisiana. It’s a dry meat so you have to mix the meat with mashed potatoes and fry them in balls. Unfortunately it’s called, yup, Gar Balls. This is a thing we do… unfortunately…
I was here for 12 minutes and 13 seconds of Croc killers and just got a bunch of Cod talk. WA, I thought I never say this about your vids, but you missed the mark on this one Bro.
12:12 - having never missed a lottery draw, this one looks like all his numbers finally came up... before realising that he forgot to call into the shop on the way home from work to buy a ticket.
So many of these fish no one has ever heard of. So many are very very aggressive. You gotta wonder how many of these were created by in a secret lab somewhere in the world. (Or your not paying attention) Now that man knows how, it's going to get strange. And they will all be aggressive. Just like as in the days of Noah....(this was the reason for the flood-book of Enoch expounds upon this, and here we are again...)
I caught several needle fish in Florida and it is terrifying trying to get the hook out of their mouth, and we didn’t even have pliers or gloves we had to use our hands
I have never heard of anyone ever saying that a pike shed their teeth in summer. Maybe they might have some of their teeth ripped out in a heated attack on prey or another pike but never dropping out just like that. I know this because when i catch pike in summer, they still have their teeth. (While its known more as an autumn/winter sport, you can still fish for them in summer. The art is to return them to the water as quick as you can and rest them before releasing. oxygen levels in the water are quite low in summer and long fought battles when they are hooked really exhaust them and will kill them if you dont return them to the water quick enough... Look after the fish, and the next time you catch it, it might be even bigger)
i used to see a gar pike on st. claire all the time. it would just float past my fishing area and check me out. it was about a foot maybe a foot and a half long and looked prehistoric. it would always be swimming closer to the top of the water. thats nothing compaired to some of the monster fish in the amazon and other areas tho haha
The Goliath Tiger Fish seems to share a lot of characteristics with the Xiphactinus that lived during the Cretaceous. They look very similar as well. I wonder if that means anything?
Jeremy Wade's is not a fisherman ,he is The Fisherman.

I hope the people in the South Pacific have been practising their phalanx formation.

hi
Hi
So what you are telling me is I fear a crocodile and a crocodile fears a fish 🤣
Thanks for the vids
i wonder if there exists stories about sharks being friendly towards humans without TheDodo's source citing
Humans put them in trances, if you consider that friendly. They bite humans and let go, that could be considered friendly.
@@ItIsYouAreNotYour so those petting season were a lie after all. thx for the reply. ^w^
@@ItIsYouAreNotYour not always
@@Absbor There are other examples of friendly sharks, like lemon sharks. Humans are generally not prey for sharks, bites happens because the creatures are curious.
@@Ikajo I'm not sure it matters if you're prey or getting bit out of curiosity... Maybe the last one you just die a little less often. A calf muscle torn off out of curiosity, meh, that'll buff out.
Hold up ✋ 🤚 Gar fish ARE eaten in south Louisiana. It’s a dry meat so you have to mix the meat with mashed potatoes and fry them in balls. Unfortunately it’s called, yup, Gar Balls. This is a thing we do… unfortunately…
🤣🤣🤣
Most garfish are smoked, smaller ones fried are good as well
11:25 "when you are a BOX with fins.."😂
The yellow box fish is ADORABLE!!! I’d actually switch from a freshwater tank to a saltwater simply to be able to keep something even similar to it.
Crocy boy still dominate
Always
I was here for 12 minutes and 13 seconds of Croc killers and just got a bunch of Cod talk. WA, I thought I never say this about your vids, but you missed the mark on this one Bro.
Swimming lessons, i might just stay out of the water now. LOL
Good choice
1:33 sometimes these videos make my day😂
12:12 - having never missed a lottery draw, this one looks like all his numbers finally came up... before realising that he forgot to call into the shop on the way home from work to buy a ticket.
What do you mean lol ?
So many of these fish no one has ever heard of. So many are very very aggressive. You gotta wonder how many of these were created by in a secret lab somewhere in the world. (Or your not paying attention) Now that man knows how, it's going to get strange. And they will all be aggressive. Just like as in the days of Noah....(this was the reason for the flood-book of Enoch expounds upon this, and here we are again...)
Ive heard of every one of them, don't let your ignorance misguide you
@@dijosto he's been taking too many drugs.
Bare in mind very little of the ocean has been explored imagine what else is out there
@@Trajan2401 *bear in mind ("bare" is something else entirely)
you find very useful things thank you for that
You're welcome
I caught several needle fish in Florida and it is terrifying trying to get the hook out of their mouth, and we didn’t even have pliers or gloves we had to use our hands
Thank you very cool info!!!
Am scared of killer whales
It is not a fish but I agree.
@@manshellramos1292 it is, all whales are fish
@Oreo Quite right sweetheart
@@TheMajesticTerrorofTheJungleYT wrong, they are mammals, not fish
@@TheMajesticTerrorofTheJungleYT sweetheart
I caught a needle fish in Florida a few months ago, and the teeth was crazy sharp
This feels like the underwater version of Scared Straight
It's waaaay more common for crocodiles to eat Goliath Tiger fish. 👌
What’s the coffee machine you’re using in the intro just curious
I have never heard of anyone ever saying that a pike shed their teeth in summer. Maybe they might have some of their teeth ripped out in a heated attack on prey or another pike but never dropping out just like that. I know this because when i catch pike in summer, they still have their teeth.
(While its known more as an autumn/winter sport, you can still fish for them in summer. The art is to return them to the water as quick as you can and rest them before releasing. oxygen levels in the water are quite low in summer and long fought battles when they are hooked really exhaust them and will kill them if you dont return them to the water quick enough... Look after the fish, and the next time you catch it, it might be even bigger)
"a list of fish, most of who are absolutely zero threat to a crocodile"
Cool video!
i used to see a gar pike on st. claire all the time. it would just float past my fishing area and check me out. it was about a foot maybe a foot and a half long and looked prehistoric. it would always be swimming closer to the top of the water. thats nothing compaired to some of the monster fish in the amazon and other areas tho haha
Gotta admit, seeing the teeth of a Goliath Tiger Fish coming out of an ice hole is interesting to say the least 😂
The cookie cutter shark tho.....
Is it just me or does he sound like Kermit narrating? Lol
The Goliath Tiger Fish seems to share a lot of characteristics with the Xiphactinus that lived during the Cretaceous. They look very similar as well. I wonder if that means anything?
I wouldn't doubt they're from the same lineage line
