Well went bowfishing the other day and ran across this monster!  He put up one heck of a fight!

Wow.  How much did he weigh, & where did you..."catch"...him"?

Only had a scale that went to 100 and he maxed it out... I would guess somewhere around 140 to 150

Gar is good eatin'

They call it the poor man's lobster because it has the taste and texture of lobster.

You'll need a chainsaw to clean it or a sawzall.

Out of state.... La


Well, that's a good one for sure.  Looks 6 ft long, or more. I was fishing at night 2 summers ago, had one that came right up to my fishing light, chasing some fish.  It hit the bottom of my 16ft heavy alum boat.  It rocked the boat, startled me.  Dang thing must have weighed 80-100lbs.  At first I though it might have been a gator.  It was a big whatever.

Alligator gar are used in place of scallops in south Texas.
In Arkansas, drum are called "poor man's lobster " because you can take the meat and boil it in crab boil and it does taste like lobster somewhat. Kind of like using imitation crab instead of real crab.

DO NOT EAT GAR EGGS, they are highly poisonous.

The Only place I ate Gar was at Pickets Soul food in Stuttgart , They called it Delta Lobster.  You got a pound and a half of it with Spicy Hush puppies  or it came on there Fisherman's Platter with Fresh water mussels, Catfish and Crappie balls.
If the South should lose, it means that the history of the heroic struggle will be written by the enemy, that our youth will be trained by Northern school teachers, will be impressed by all of the influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors and our maimed veterans as fit subjects for derision.
