FISHING FOR DINOSAURS | Montana Paddlefish (Amazon Episode)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 жов 2024
- A 70 million-year-old dinosaur lives in the rivers of Montana. The Fresh Tracks crew heads out to try their hand at catching the prehistoric paddlefish, a native species that has changes little since the time of dinosaurs. Hooking a paddlefish is just the start of the adventure, as these fish can easily top 100 pounds. That makes landing them from a river bank quite a challenge.
The thrill of the paddlefish doesn't end once one is caught. In this catch-clean-cook experience, they take whatever fish they hook and cook it up to share. Tag along as the guys take a few days to chase these giants, with plenty of laughs along the way.
This is an Amazon episode from Fresh Tracks season 8, that you can find on Amazon Prime Video.

🤣🤣🤣 8:10 Looks like 2 human fish wallowing with a paddle fish! Great morning chuckle! Beautiful filming! Love how you captured the nature sounds too. Looks like you all had a great time!🐟
This was a fun video! Kept thinking only thing missing was Randy yelling "Whoo hoo!!" Poof...there he was at the fish feed! Congrats Dave on your new daughter, she is beautiful. Love the "character roll call at the end credits! Great job Newberg team! Good clean entertainment!!
Spoonbills are actually brackish water fish.Where I scubadive we have at least 3 and they would make the 2 you guys caught look like babies. But very nice job!
I just knew Pops was gonna show us how it was done! Hate that his line broke! Most men his age could never fish all day like that, you rock ol timer!
And good on David for not editing out his disappointment...thats fishing and hunting, so many shows only show the highlight reel, that normal guys get a misconception that it's just catching and killing!
I'm not much of a snagger, but up here in Alaska, we use weighted trebles that have the lead and treble all together. It's far more efficient and simple than rigging a treble, and your weight further up the line.
Long ago I saw many in markets for sale. Many types of fish and critters were sold in the New Orleans markets. Often big alligator snapping turtles were sold from wire cages.
Old Man's cupping the spool.....i learned manny lessons the hardway from cupping the spool😭😭😭
See lol told ya dont cup the spool.youd think youd know with all the age he has but nope.ive seen it every time
Some of the best eating fish I ever had in my life
AWESOME VIDEO! 👌 Thanks for sharing a true adventure with everyone. To all Avid Fisherman Marcus and his crew Hooked & Cooked and Smoked all of little fish angler's, Good Job fellas 👏 👌 👍.
We catch them here in Arkansas, on the Arkansas river, and also on the White River! My biggest is 62 lbs, my brother in law has caught 2 in the 80 lbs class!
Its about time for them to run up through batesville aint it?! I went a few days ago and hit a few carp but no spoons yet
They are in the Illinois river as well.....good times!!
I watched guys catch those in NE Oklahoma on the Neosho River in Miami, OK. When I was a kid, they often caught fish that big. Spoonbill are good to eat!
We catch them in louisiana all the time lol like all the time lots of catch and release
Michael took his shirt off but left the sweater on ;-p
Awesome show.
YUH
That's a fun trip! Dave... I feel ya. Right place at the right time. Looking forward to watching this year's trip. 👍
I remember my ribs being sore as hell after a weekend over there. Got some good memories of it though!
Can’t believe your letting your buddy fish left handed knowing he’s right handed lmao
Looks like the ultimate freshwater fishing trip. I love Montana, God's country!
Snagging is not fishing. Never has been....
I really enjoyed hat Marcus. It made me really miss paddle fishing in Montana.
Beautiful there we have a lot of paddlefish here in Oklahoma we can snag yr round here but one fish per day and 2 for the yr catching 20 in a day is not a impossible task my best day was 29 in one day from 6am till 10 pm I was so sore the next day I could hardly fish but what a day 55 yrs old I have slowed down a little but I love the feeling when ya hook into one ya never know when it's gona be a giant the record here I believe is 162 lbs but don't quote me on that great video hope to see more soon
Most awesome. I'm pretty sure that I have fished that River floating With Friends never thought about paddlefish. camping catching cats and sauger. We did a little bit of noodling too and I'm really sure that I was close to where you guys were I remember that Island
Awesome video! I love when you guys cook your catch or kill on the video!
I look forward to the paddle fish videos. I really need to apply.
I've landed two of them beneath Kentucky Dam years ago but nowhere near that big. The biggest was a hair over 20 lbs. and both snagged unintentionally while striper fishing.
Didn't know what it was until you brought it in and then i said... darn spoonbill... what we call them in Louisiana... all over the bayous... different than a gar... but a spoonbill.
Congrats guys !! Awesome video; Awesome trip !! Felt like I was there with you guys !!
David, great effort !!
Pops, you can teach’m all !!
Keep it on dudes !
All the best ....
Meh. Snagging. Come ON MAN! Leave the Dinosarus alone....And yes I am from Montana.
Down here below ky dam we use a gaffe with a hook to get them out of the water. Hard to catch though asian carp have almost took over
We fish KY dam at least once a year. The carp are fun, but I would love to catch a couple spoonbill
OOH YEAH WHOOO WHOOO WHEEE CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL Y'ALL
Nice spoonies. Got some that size down south. They are next level fun
I'm loving the series guys. It's definitely a refreshing take on fishing and fishing culture.
You should try soaking the meat in a sauce called Huli Huli.
Most grocery stores stock it and on white fish it is amazing.
Great video..
Awesome video! 10/10 hands down. Guys are so lucky it was raining haha! Hit it just right.
Wow that looks like so much fun! Thank you guys for sharing!
Thanks for watching
Now that was a video, nice bunch of people to. Good employees you have Mr Newberg.
You should come down south and fish for alligator gar, definitely a dinosaur and good eating when you get past the armor. I really want to try this fishery and a fine dinner, I hadn’t heard of the spoonbill before looks like a great time.
The camaraderie is what it really shows 👏
Thank You almost as good as being there! Made me miss every fishin trip of my entire life Thanks again!!!
Smoked paddle fish is the best
David's reaction when Marus's dad hooks up. I really felt for him.
You need a gaffe to land those, the way your doing it would be the equivalent to getting into the ocean to land a large halibut.
You don't need a gaff. They have no teeth nor scales nor bones. Used to be able to catch and release .. so obviously gaffs were out. A rope loop around tail works well. The Missouri gumbo mud makes things more difficult - but yjat what makes memories .
I look forward to the paddle fishing vid every year!!
Some of the worst fish landing i've ever seen lol
When I was very young about 8, my dad and uncles from my moms side would go to Kentucky Dam Snagging. I know they bought permits but I don't know if they were specific on a certain species. I thought they were after catfish but they would catch a little bit of everything. At the dam it rip rap rock on steep slopes all the way down into the water. They used ocean rods with big Pin Reels and would cut a hole in a tennis ball and slide it up over the bottom of the rod and tape it in place because it usually rested on their hip. When they would hook into something big they would fight it until it would start to tire then if they had quite a bit of line to retrieve they would turn around and put the rod over their shoulders and start walking up the hill until they had it all the way in. My dad got a job and we moved and we never went back. When I was grown my dad was in poor health from years of hard living and working in the coal mines. I talked to him about going back with me and showing me the ropes because I had always wanted to do it. Unfortunately time ran out and we never got there. A few years ago we my wife and I traveled through that area and I seen a sign that read Kentucky Dam 4 miles in a different direction so I told her we had to go see it on our way back. When we drove over it there was road construction going on and the traffic was really congested through there. I couldn't figure out how to get down to it and because this was shortly after 9-11 I wasn't even sure if it was open to the public. I know a lot of smaller dams in this area were closed off in fear of some kind of sabotage I guess. Anyway I did get to see it and the one thing I couldn't get over was how small it was. I mean it's big enough that they ferry barges back and forth through it but when I was there as a kid. To me it was as big as the Hoover or Grand Coolee. They caught a lot of big fish there. My dads biggest was a 60 some pound Blue Catfish. He told me once that it was the hardest work. He said in one weekend of straight fishing he lost 14 pounds.
that looks like a blast!! maybe should add to my bucket list for fishing
Really enjoyed this video. Just good friends hanging out fishing.
I wait every year for this thanks bring them to us!
In Argentina we have the Sabalo, also a filter feeder, for ages considered impossible to hook in the mouth. In recent years, the rise of carpfishing saw the introduction of the Korean trap, a spring based feeder which you fill with some sort of packed groundbait, with the hooks embedded in it. All of a sudden we started hooking sabalos every day, besides carp. They suck on the cereal ball and eventuelly swallow a hook. Might justify a try.
Before even watching. I got $20 bucks on his dad lol
I was thinkin the same thing!
Hey guys, are you going paddle fishing again? I like watching them. Randy needs to get one as well.
Holy mother of Fishing ...... those paddle fish are huge...... the ultimate fish fry..... great show guys
Thanks for watching!
Nobody eats paddlefish. They just want to foul hook
@@wadestanton false I've been eating paddlefish since I was a little kid.
@@liftedninja1607 Ick
Videos of the crew going out and having fun are some of the best videos! Looks like a good bunch of guys.
I almost caught one where do I buy a paddle fish pole
crazy as it sounds i cought one in about 1977 in our pond we hade in holmes county florida this is a fact he was only about a foot long we do not know how it got in thear but yes it blew me away when i cought it i could not believe it and did not know what the hell it was until my grand father saw it he was from aransas and fished over where you guys are but he knew what it was we also cought 2 gold fish that weighed about 10 pounds right before we drained and filled it in crazy i know but true fact now im 52 years old i was 7 then lol lol crazy things that happened
Great video. Looks like a spot called the willows. Landed a 110 pounder up stream from there. Hooked it in the tail had to chase it with a boat
Marcus, you did a great job hosting the show and doing voice overs.
It really is a beautiful species
my good friend and I fished this past season on that same camp site . but the water was lower on opening day, that day 10 fish where caught that morning. except my friend. he caught his the next weekend and at the first campsite off of the main highway.
The outro and music is pretty cool
Could you imagine dragging a sheep or a horse or a cow across a field by a sharp hook buried in the animals mouth . Imagine a camera crew being there to film that like it was normal . Good god
The worst part is they are dragging them from anywhere they can snag them it's fucked.
Buddies son caught a paddel fish at the Bellville locks and dam on the WV side of the Ohio River ! Pretty sure it was like 28 lbs !
Great editing David and crew.
man i miss paddle fishing
I really enjoyed this video. My friends and I went sailing and fishing on the ocean. So watching your video was fun. I showed them this video. They loved it. We certainly didn’t catch anything compared to your paddlefish.
I got wore out watching him land that fish lol
Things are huge👊
Thank you for sharing 🤗 WOW 😯😛
Next time just bread it in some Andy's, and fry'em like catfish nuggets. ;)
I’d feel guilty keeping a 35+ year old fish for some reason 😅
same, and I fish often.
I have seen One. In my life
Some guys caught it on a trot line in lake verrette LA
A 30 pounder
Awesome. Need come up better idea for landing them. Long gaff hook possibly. When I lived in Florida, off the piers , for big fish. We had long heavy rope with huge self made treble or quad hooks.
Never gotten a paddlefish on my first day. I have probably 7 under me biggest at 91lbs (when I was 11) I’ve also fished for 4 days and never picked one up
I fish all the time I get the experience is awesome but just let them go I don’t get keeping it it’s 30 years old like why kill a monster like that
your argument would be better suited to not fishing for them at all. if you do, you're better off keeping it considering what you have to put it through to catch it. So go in, catch one for the experience, keep it for the meat and roe, and then fish for other things.
Snagging 😬😬😬
I've snag a few by accident. The big one fights pretty hard and likes to run down river. The small one you can just drag them in.
Enjoyed this video vry much. Grew up in South Dakota and tried snagging paddlefish at an early age at Ft Thompson but never successful
Snagging not fishing. Lol
Makes me wonder what a T-Rex would taste like!
Marcus, if you struggle to give your caviar away, I'm in Bozeman 2x a week. I would LOVE the opportunity to try some!!!
Caveat is, I'm in Bozeman between 0100 and 0330 your time (on 7th by the Motel). = (
Edit: Seeing the Pallid is very cool. Our White's and Greens continue to struggle in the Columbia system.
That looks like the best fishing trip!!
There use to be paddle fish in few bodies of water Canada Ontario but last report was about 100years ago
Another excellent video Marcus
Iooks like a sword fish awesome
The best shot was still the baby. And two sons fishing with their dad.
Cool credits. Excellent video. Thanks.
Our pleasure!
I found a six pack of beer wear you wear fishing at and downed it on the spot like a boss
Where is this river. Is it apart of the Missouri?
Fun. Fish then here in Missouri get a butt load every year
How is snagging even legal in Montana??
I feel like trying to get snagged onto a fish is literally the opposite of what fishing is suppose to be
lol how? fishing is you hunting for fish, and the opposite of that would be throwing fish into the water
@@trippytoxin Hunting via tricking them to bite a hook.
dragging 7/0 treble hooks requires no talent or skill.
@@elonmust7470 it may not require skill, but you’re still trying to harvest fish from a body of water
@@trippytoxin Ill stick to bass & steelhead I guess.
@@trippytoxin I don’t agree, fishing isn’t just “hunting” for fish
If ever in Brazil ... let us know ....
"Cast through the pain"
very nice video 👍👍👍👍👍👍 love from #hookvsfish
I had been snagged by size 1/0 treble hook on my limb , and it's really suck and horrible day for me. So for guys who fishing with such method , you had to loose the line when your buddy had grab it while assist on landing the fish.
That's not fishing
Good vid 👍 beautiful fish
Ok, let’s discuss this. The fish are a rare species and very old. Like sturgeon for example. They were caught and not released because why ?
We catch tons of em on trot lines on the alabama river
So cool !
Wish those big girls would have been let go to boost the population, or moved to areas that they're struggling in, but good job! Looks like a great time!
I'm not vegan but
Knowing those fisheys have lived as long as me. Makes them taste better. I'm I right ?
What do you do...when and if...you snag a different fish...it is then legal....?...and you can keep the fish..?..or must throw it back...?...
If you draw a “keep” permit you can keep one paddlefish. You have to tag the fish you keep with a locking tag and you cannot keep another. You can continue to snag and release. Check out Montana FWP regulations on paddlefish fishing.
Here is what I've witnessed at Intake MT. Somebody is going to snag a huge pallid sturgeon at least 5 times a day.Everybody gets excited, so they pull the fish out of the water and try to hold it up for pictures. The fishes tail snaps cause the drunkards can't lift it high enough and they slip it back hoping no warden saw them.
@@wadestanton that’s sick and wrong.
