Well after spooking Carp all morning and watching them turn off my flies and not eat I decided to pick out a fatty Gar out of the hundreds that were rising around me.... The Carp hath forsaken me!! Awesome day to be out on the water slinging bugs!!!

At least I got a fight today!

The lake is having the "Trashmaster" Classic again later this fall..... I should bring some of these fish instead of the real garbage they want you to help pick up!! I wonder what those guys would say!!

Very nice.. Wish I could hang some trash fish like that! Nice pics Ky Trkyhntr!!!!

Now that's making the best of a situation.

Nice job, Tim. Love the headline. Sounds like one I would write.

Kentucky Afield did a show on how to clean and eat this fish...... Tastes like Chicken!

Pa:

What do gar taste like?

Nothing....isn't a fishy, almost no taste. The consistancy is somewhat like lobster. Kind of tough and chewy but actually pretty good.

I'm talking about aligator gar not pond gar but they might taste the same?
