Seems as of the new TLC you can no longer pick them up with an Argentavis and they seem to be larger.
Baryonyx
The Baryonyx is a large crocodile-like predator. While it might lack in attack power, its ability to swim extremtly fast makes it a fierce opponent — especially with its ability to travel on both land and in water.

How ARK players tame and knock out the Baryonyx: what to feed it, what to knock it out with, and how to keep it safe.
BOLAS WORK ON MOBILE! Hope others see this
Extremely useful, find them near almost any river bank. Lure them out of the water (do NOT try to fight them in the water, you will 100% die) and bola them. Then either knock them out with a few hits or hit it with a tranq arrow. We use them as protection when traveling, and…

Then either knock them out with a few hits or hit it with a tranq arrow. We use them as protection when traveling, and they have takes out everything from a pack of raptors to a therinosaurus to carnos.
BOLA no longer immobilizes. I feel their size has been also change visually seems larger.
Hmm it says you can’t bola this dude…*stares at the 140 red baryonyx I bola’d*
Here’s how to tame a bary
Step 1 get raw fish meat or raw prime fish meat
Step 2 get a cross bow or a bow (I used a cross bow )
Step 3 find a bary and get on high ground so it doesn’t get you (you can build a trap but I just did the high ground)
Step 4 knock it out…

Step 5 put the raw fish meat or raw prime fish meat in its inventory
Step 6 wait till it tames
Now you have a bary I hope this helps:)
I just did my first dungeon and got Baryonyx and Mammoth implants which one should I Tame? up for Baryonyx down for Mammoth 5 votes decide.
For Mobile users, the Barry CAN be picked up by the Argi.
1. Find a Baryonyx
2. Climb on a rock
3. Shoot it with tranq arrows
4. Feed it fish me
5. You have a Baryonyx
I don't know why this isn't a tip from anyone else but once tamed it only eats fish.
Newer update than tips section.
Baryonyx can no longer be carried by Argentavis. Quetzal or above is needed to carry him. Baryonyx drag weight has been increased.
I wasted my time, don't waste yours!
Hey hey beginner don’t be scared if you see this than your in luck if you have 2 bola and fish meat than bola it and than tame it I think you already know that your in luck for reading this tip
Bola's work on these, can tame anywhere even in water, prime fish meat is best so take a fishing rod and all the necessary equipment needed, easy tame
Honestly this is the Best tame i've ever had.i currently have 3 rex.spino tapejara and argy. But i have to say this this guy is the best dino ark ever made. hands down.mine could outrun a raptor on land.almost megapiranha on water..also this medium shaped dino helped me…
Honestly this is the Best tame i've ever had.i currently have 3 rex.spino tapejara and argy. But i have to say this this guy is the best dino ark ever made. hands down.mine could outrun a raptor on land.almost megapiranha on water..also this medium shaped dino helped me overcome my fear for caves.whether its artho or titanboa. Due to its high torpor enduring and decent weight and melee damage. Cave huntings were easier for me.. Until i lost him on by mistakely jumping into Lava In LAVA CAVE. Will miss u alot Barry Allen.
TIP:I DONT CARE IF U R ON EARLY OR MID GAME.TAMING THIS BEAST IS A MUST.JUST REMEMBER THEY ONLY EAT FISH SO AFTER KNOCKING HIM OUT GO TO THE NEAREST RIVER TO FETCH SOME FISH MEAT.
~thank you if u have read this much~

In ark mobile these things can be bola.
1: Do not fight them in water under any circumstances
2: Lure them on to land
3: Use a bola
4: Attempt to Tranquilse with bow and arrow or better
Remember: They can only be tamed with fish meat and they usually kill all the fish in the area so you should probably have…

This thing is crazy do not let your small dinos fight it rip bob
Please please PLEASE make a trap for these guys. They are hella fast and can run away before you can shoot them again
You can pick it up with an Argy--doesn't make sense, but it makes taming a breeze.
I finally knocked this bad boy then a stupid freaking raptor! (My raptor) thought it was still alive and killed it then gather the rest of it :(
