Lance Burgos was kayaking and camping at Lake Fausse Point State Park in Louisiana. He attached a GoPro camera to his kayak and headed out for a day of fishing. While checking his catfish lines with a young passenger (perhaps his son), he tugs on one and says, “I think we’ve got a gar fish, dude.” The young boy begins to reach toward the water to help pull in the line and Lance cuts him off saying, “Be careful, buddy.” Both of them are lucky he stopped him from reaching any further because just a second later, the beast emerges. And it was most definitely NOT a catfish:
Remember, fishing in Louisiana rivers are done at your own risk!
