Nice haul. Any trouble getting them in with your setup?

Those are big gar! I'm not sure if we have Alligator Gar in Georgia, but we do have other types. I think they are considered trash fish and have no limit. At least that used to be the case. It sure would be fun to stick one of those big fish.

Awesome fish! If we get one over 10 lbs on our forays we have done good!

Wow. Great day indeed. Did you use beefed up line, or the stock line that came with your setup?

No problems with the stock set up but it does take a team to get them in the boat. What we do is let 1 person pick the shot they want and after they “stick” the fish and bring it to the surface everyone else with shoot it also to insure the fish gets landed. The fish belongs to whoever makes the first shot.
You can land one by yourself if it is in pretty clear water but it can be a heck of a fight!

Yes sir, and don’t ever try to eat them!
I’ve heard they are supposed to be toxic but I don’t know that for sure. I do know they will take the paint off your boat! Lol

I've seen some big gar, but those are simply huge.

Awesome fish! I hope you saved some scales. They make very cool looking arrowhead shaped necklaces.

That’s awesome in Michigan they are the size of a pike.

That's true! a "long-nosed pike"
totally different species...not even close.
