Besides Bowfin and Gar, I've set out specifically to catch a few more unusual species.
Paddlefish aka Spoonbill are my absolute favorite. Snagging for them in the spring at Kentucky Dam. It's tiring but fun, and they are tasty!
Freshwater Drum - common here in So. Indiana, I've been trying to work up the courage to eat one.
One fun experience I had was "jugging" for big blue cats on the Wabash River one night.
