Never had gar, is it sort of like pike? Pike is tasty, but bony.
Was curious if most just threw the fish away or used them for some other purpose like fertilizer, cut bait, fish food...
I am in the middle of taking a fisheries biology class and one point I came across was the feed for many fisheries is not fish protein, but other sources. Seems like there could be a market for "trash" and invasive species like all these carp to be caught/shot and used as feed for our fisheries. Solving 2 problems at once.
