I'm a School Security Officer and for the past week we've been dealing with cyber threats in one form or another. It's been hectic. I just experienced the most relaxing and enjoyable video I've seen in a long time. It was much needed. Outstanding day of fishing. Thanks for sharing and letting me be a part of it!
Are you by any chance in Illinois. We are seeing school threats here in the Joliet IL area. I was just curious as to how far these threats are happening. Seems odd to hear if you are located elsewhere. Like WTF is going on these days!!! Sad.

Dude. I’m a teacher in Southern IL. We had a threat today. Videos from Nick are great to unwind after a tough day, but it’s really damn sad that stuff like this is going on. Hope it gets better for you.
I love that what you're calling a "smaller hook" is the size hook we use for large cod and halibut. Not even the people going for large pike would use something like that, at least not many of them.
Awesome catch Nick thanks again for the adventure. Those fish have stood the test of time. I appreciate your admiration for the gar. Keep it coming my friend.
The gar looked like it survived an oil spill and was dirty. Just an awesome catch. Not sure on other parts of the country, but here in the Ohio River valley near Wheeling, WV we are in a terrible drought. In the last 30 days we have had 1 rainfall yielding 0.34" . Currently between D3-D4 conditions (D4 being "Exceptional Drought"). Rock on Nick 🤘😎
Hey brother, I just want to say I really enjoy watching your channel. I look forward to every time you post one of your fishing adventures. I really appreciate that you identify all the fishes you catch and it’s help me to learn what they are. You’re awesome bro.
What an amazing gar. Love the visit can't wait for the next. I like that spot it reminds me of one that I used to fish a lot until it became a town favorite and now it gets full
Nick Buddy! I’ve always thought that you were a straight up good dude, you took it to another level trying to save fish from the dwindling puddle! Nice try man! Much respect for the attempt. My father in law used to clean the banks of our favorite bullhead fishing hole so love that you gave it a try! Need more sportsman like you!
That spot is super special.....I can only hope those weren't the anglers that threw all the gar on bank to die....and I hope they were catch n release like yourself....u inspire me and I enjoyed this episode nick!!!!!as always amazing job editing etc etc
Looks like you caught quite a few nice fish. I'm hoping to get out at least a couple more times this year before it gets cold. Still looking for that first flathead.
Beautiful spotted gar, good sized spot too! Man, I haven’t caught a bowfin, mudfish, dogfish, haha their called something different but is the same fish, all over. Last one I caught was from a paylake, in Ky, and they called it a dogfish. That was probably 30-35 years ago.
Man I just caught my first Grass Carp ever last week, actually hooked into a couple. Such a fun fight, one was 14 pounds. I know they can get much bigger. That spotted gar was awesome looking. Keep up the great content.
There were no floaters (dead ones) or live ones, which would lead me to believe that they were taken out or caught by someone else. You are applauded for your efforts.
I’ve been fishing for gar for weeks in this same pond and they are absolutely all over the place but, I have yet to get one in. I’m using cut up bluegill,shad and various other pan fish. Any tips?
As a fellow fisherman , I know that we keep our secrets real close and hush when it comes to fishing . That being said , you gotta tell me how you cloned yourself ... Working the net while working the worm was epic !!!! 😁
That Gar was stunning, great catch!
Nice multi-species trip, grass carp, striped and largemouth bass, gar, and bowfins. Sweet haul for this episode.
That spotted gar was beautiful! 💕 Thanks for sharing.😃

If you think the video was relaxing, you should try actual fishing. It is therapy.
Man, Good Luck! I sure don't envy you & your job

Bro! Keep hitting the big rivers please. 100+lbs!
What a day! Spotted gar was as you described - beautiful. You know me - always elated when you land a gar of any variety.
Stop work and watch 618 video. Great Thursday!!!

It’s definitely not a big hook at all, for catfish I usually go with 4/0 to 5/0 circle hook
@@Powerpro78kexactly I personally like 10/0 and 12/0 circles
Great video Nick. Keep up the great work.
Can’t wait for every new episode!

That gar was malanistic, which means it was even rarer a catch.
My dad started watching just because you reel left handed.
Awesome job nick.
Proud of ya.
All good fisherman reel left handed, we say the other way is rigtarded.
I love these vids just had to stop doing everything to watch saw the notification and clicked right away❤

Great catches Nick congratulations. Keep doing what you are doing. Great job.
Fish on🤘
Dang, Nick! I've never seen a spotted gar bigger than 12 inches. Thanks for the vid!
always in anticipation of one of your videos, buddy, you and Richard Jean. The fishing machine are my two favorite youtubers
As always, great video, Nick! That last bowfin was a tank! Keep the videos coming man!
Man, I like videos like this when you go to the creeks, and there are just big fish just living in it. Keep up the good videos
That is a beautiful spotted gar! I love the dark background with the spots on its body
Love your heart for the sport of fishing.🎣
hope your golden my dude!!!!
Some great catches and a great upload as always!
Nice spotted gar. Really nice looking fish
Very nice spotted gar. I didn't even know they exist until today.
Great video, Nick!
Your heart is in the right place. Thank you for all you do!
Thanks man I appreciate you watching!
That gar is awesome👌
You haven’t fished until you catch bluegill on a kiddie pole ….
Light gear is the right gear 🍻
The release looked like something out of a movie. Killed me. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Nice job Nick. Another great vid.
what a beautiful gar, nick.
The markings on that GAR were extraordinary.
Multi-species day at the creek, does it get any better ?
Until the next.
🤙🏼🇺🇲🤙🏼
That. Gar. Wow, amazingly beautiful!
What an amazing gar. Love the visit can't wait for the next. I like that spot it reminds me of one that I used to fish a lot until it became a town favorite and now it gets full
I was fishing last night, 21 inch walleye. I love your videos, man.
lies prob got a 9 oz bluegill
Great multi species episode!
a great day fishing for once nick well done and thanks for the entertainment
Spotted gar is a special catch. Great day of fishing!
What a great fishing spot , it really got some great species living there !!!!
Well done Nick. You make catching gar look so easy. I have never caught one. Going to have to change that.
Nick Buddy! I’ve always thought that you were a straight up good dude, you took it to another level trying to save fish from the dwindling puddle! Nice try man! Much respect for the attempt.

Good on you, true sportsmanship
Great stuff nick thanks
It's great to see that this creek went from being the one where there was seemingly nothing left alive to excellent fishing. I love to see that.
that spotted gar is a beauty.
One of best videos I’ve watched so far of yours!!!
Just another sweet video, always a great time 👌👌
Spotted Gar = Cretaceous
Bowfin = Maelstrom
Cool double up of prehistoric beasts. And if you know Ice Age 2, you probably get the reference.
Nick great video, thanks again. Best regards from Lanark
Like seeing you catch all these type of fish in the creek awesome catch and video we don’t have gar or bowfin in my area
Beautiful area to fish, always in my prayers 🙏 love you
Nice
Nick videos are national geografic level. ❤❤❤❤
Chores are kicking my butt today, thanks for posting
Happy Thursday Everyone!!! 😃😃😃👊👊💕❤️
Beautiful fish
That's an insane catch, nice job bro
Great video. Keep up the great work
Awesome!!! Thank you for the fishing tips. How many hours did u fish?
Vid is amazing😊
Love the b-roll footage!
Keren brother
great catches
Who else also says "See you later buddy" when releasing their catch now?
here, there, always !
Kudos to the music Nick.
That Gar was a great catch!
Great fishing
That's easily the coolest gar I've ever seen.
Plot twist, that grass carp escapes to one day become a 100 pound monster that Nick’s future son will one day catch.
Nothing better than a day of fishing. Sometimes I don't even mind if I don't catch something great.just being out there.
American fish seem to never give a f..k on hook size😂
Greets from germany, love your channel!
BRO I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL❤
That spot is super special.....I can only hope those weren't the anglers that threw all the gar on bank to die....and I hope they were catch n release like yourself....u inspire me and I enjoyed this episode nick!!!!!as always amazing job editing etc etc
I don’t think they were. They seemed like they were good people. Thanks for watching!
Looks like you caught quite a few nice fish. I'm hoping to get out at least a couple more times this year before it gets cold. Still looking for that first flathead.
good job walking that log!
😂 I've caught 3 bass on hotdogs in a pond I fish for cats. If their hungry I guess they'll eat it. Good work brotha. Keep em coming man.
Beautiful spotted gar, good sized spot too! Man, I haven’t caught a bowfin, mudfish, dogfish, haha their called something different but is the same fish, all over. Last one I caught was from a paylake, in Ky, and they called it a dogfish. That was probably 30-35 years ago.

Awesome video as always would be cool to see more videos in Florida I live in ocoee and there’s a lot of lakes a rivers around here
Nice day bro .. 5 different fish kool day
Nice spotted gar
Nice!
Good day of fishing
Kiddo car seat eh. Congrats Nick!
Neat grass carp
I personally think doubling up while solo fishing is one of the most impressive things in fishing
I said it before, and ill say it again, you are on the Gar this year, thats bananas.
No rescue this time but the fishing was still awesome!
That spotted gar was one of the coolest looking fish ever. Are you able to get reproduction mount like it?
Wait! There’s 2 Nicks! I was willing to accept that there was one guy way cooler than me, but two!!!!!!!!!! How can I ever compete?!
Free laundry basket too lol
