Hey Charlie,
How do you fish gar for a living? Is there value in a gar or is it by making videos of fishing gar or .......?

Bill,
I saw these guys (The Gar Guys) on TV fishing with Bill Dance and Johnny Morris of Bass Pro Shops (BPS)a few years back. They were catching 100+ lb garfish with Johnny Morris to put in live tanks on display at his BPS Missouri location. I was amazed because I have a river place on the Trinity River. I, the kids, and grandkids have all swam in the Trinity for years and honestly never thought about big garfish. Come that Christmas, my wife bought me a guided trip to fish with these guys. They picked me and (2) buddies up at my place in an airboat and I ended up catching a 6'4" 140lb alligator gar that morning....and yes, what do you think Ms. Paul's fish sticks are??? These guys also sell guided Bow Hunting trips for gar. I hear some folks like to get the big 100+lb ones mounted by a taxidermist to hang in their game rooms.
Charlie
