Great job and good video. I fish for longnosed and spotted at pecan creek but never been to the trinity for that gator gar. Its high on my to do list though! Were yall using whole cut carp chunks for bait?

Thanks Mike! We use big cut carp, or whole carp if they're small, under 12" big shad work, and if you spot freshwater mullet feeding in the shallows cast net those. I've had more runs on a single mullet head than many others. You must go out with a variety of bait, there's not telling what they're in the mood for. Always take your time, and wait it out. sometimes they'll stare at your bait for 20 minutes and other times you'll have all your reels scream at the same time.

Thanks guys! The big gar was 5'8" I've hooked a 6'er before but it was in the spring and they where less fat, but much more energetic.

4/0 Non stainless steel. On 4.5' Malin wire, #68+lb either 80lb braid, or 80 mono. Sliding slip float just so we know which way they're running. Let the bait hit bottom.
