Last of the Giants: Wild Fish

In the turbulent waters of the Bijagos archipelago, Cyril Chauquet's quest for a giant barracuda is quickly answered by a fish so explosive it knocks him off his feet.

Cyril Chauquet and his seasoned four-man crew embark on a mission to find and study the last giant fish on the planet.

Cyril lands a formidable barracuda and shifts his sights to the next target - the African cubera, the biggest snapper on the planet.

A rogue current and powerful waves force Cyril and his team into the path of poachers, illegally hunting in the Bijagos' waters.

The trek to the edge of the Amazon, near the southernmost border of Brazil, is rife with danger. Fishing from the shore, Cyril hooks a motoro stingray.

Raging storms have flooded the riverbanks, as a ramshackle tugboat hauls Cyril and his crew further into the Amazon forest in their search for a muturo.

Armed with Amazon-worthy fishing boats, Cyril and team hit the waters in search of the elusive, giant muturo.

Cyril's next mission is the invasive paiche, a giant, air-breathing monster fish that can grow to twice the length of an adult human.
