Where clause takes too long

I'm using Laravel 5.6

My model is normal

<?php

namespace App;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class MyTable extends Model
{
    protected $table = 'myTable';
    public $timestamps = false;

}

I am trying to make a simple query where it is to bring up 8 Records

I'm using like this:

 public function getDevice( Request $request  ){
        $ip = $request->input('ip');       
        $table = MyTable::where('description', $ip );
        echo "<pre>";
        print_r($table );
        echo "</pre>";
        /*
        return response()->json($table);
        */
    }

But it is crashing and not bringing the result

Consider table

id | description| status | 
1  |  1         |   0    |
2  |  1         |   1    |
3  |  1         |   0    |
4  |  1         |   1    |

But if I use it like this

$query DB::select('SELECT * FROM myTable WHERE description = ?', [1]);

Or if you bring only one

$table = MyTable::find(1); 

$table = MyTable::all(); 

Works
