holy hell that s one big fish, so peaceful yet deceiving when feeding lol

its hard to tell the size as there is nothing to compare it to in the video.

you can find black and white pics of these things that were caught and are hanging from a tree towering over a person standing next to it and still part of it dragging on the ground i'd say over 10 feet!!!!

i wonder what they feed these guys in captiity at this size? proly the unruly childeren they catch banging on the tanks, or the ones left unattended by careless parents...lol..."hey where did little bobby go?...he was he just a minute ago, weren't you watching him honey?"

they have fish like that here in texas. crazy. Im hoping to raise one in a pond, and get him huge, and old- they can live to be around like 25 years old i think- thats crazy.

Oh my it is a wonderful sight. Since I was a kid I have been strangely comforted knowing that there are such beasts in our North American waters.
