WATCH! Epic river monster caught by fishermen!!

For many years now, adventurers and fishermen are constantly visiting a place where it never fails to amaze them because of its beauty and wonder.

One of the biggest river monsters in Amazon is the Arapaima

In case you wanted to see some creature that's far from the usual, the best place you have to visit is the Amazon River. Researchers claim that this place is one of the best spots to goof around with unusual creatures.

To follow the advice of the experts, these fishermen tried their luck and went on a long journey in the Amazon River to look for a gigantic fish called Arapaima. They used a boat to search the amazon river.

Arapaima are these long sleek looking fish that can grow up to 2 and half meters ( or around 8 feet). The record weight this monster is 200 KG or about 440 LBs, but on average they are about half that.

Arapaima are considered to be an ancient fish - scientists estimate they are descendants of fish that date back more than 250 million years.

One of the reasons I think they’ve  been so successful at survival are these amazing armor-like scales that cover their body. These scales are super light, but so strong, not even Piranha can bite through them.

These men thought that it would just be a piece of cake for them, but then the rain starts pouring heavily and that's when they realized that it wouldn't be as easy as they expected.

The Arapaimas can bee seen in the vast waters of the Amazon river. It can grow up to more than 15ft. It is claimed to be the largest freshwater fish in the word because of its capability to grow up to 4.5 meters.

These people bravely caught the fish with the help of the fishing rod and their bare hands. Despite having some troubles at first, especially when it started raining. These people did not stop until they found what they were looking for.
