Steve Cover:
Good looking fish.

We used to do a lot of Gar fishing when I was stationed in Texas.

Some of the Gar were almost as long as our little flat bottomed boat.

We never attached the line directly to the bow..... Good way to lose one.

Our arrows were tied to about 30 feet of braided 100 lb line that was tied to a soccer ball sized plastic float.

What method of handling large fish do you use??



Note the improvised bow reel....

The larger Gar were shot in the head and dragged up on shore.  We brought this little one home for pictures (and cat food)

Mr. Eddie, i second the "eat the gar" motion. they are really good. and no bones like you said.  ;D

Justin Snyder:
Dang Chris, that looks like a good time. One day I'm going to make it down that direction to do some gar fishing.
