wow, i knew these fish are aggressive, but i had no idea how violent and efficient they are as suction feeders... also, the way it moves and stops its dorsal fin in a wavelike motion to move forward and backward, or hold itself in the water column without having to turn its body is so neat. i dont think ive ever seen a fish do that besides eels.

idk what setup you were using looked like just a splitshot and hook from the video lol, but if you throw a sinker on then a barrel swivel and some of the normal eagle claw hooks onto the barrel swivel, you will be able to feel him bite that cray alot earlier, which really helps when using plastic bait to set the hook before he spits it out. great catch never caught a bowfin im big into catfish though
