I can't answer the question, mostly because I've never seen it asked before. This is largely because gar become a problem in nearly every body of water they get into. They overpopulate, eat everything in sight, and don't get very big. Be very careful. You could end up with just a bunch of hungry pencils swimming around. And they can be difficult to catch because of their bony snouts and small sizes. They're expert bait thieves. I get the appeal. They're very cool. At least the first few you catch are.
