decided to go fish some backwaters for alligator gar since the main rivers i fish are all really high right now. ended up landing 3 alligator gar in just a few hours and losing a 7 foot monster from the kayak on a river that has no water body record for alligator gar on rod and reel. i caught first a 46 inch gar as a i got a double run and released it quickly after a few pics and then caught a 5 footer from the kayak who gave me a pretty good fight. just a few minutes after releasing these fish i caught a almost 140 pound alligator gar from the bank in an extremely intense fight that lasting 15 minutes or more with me stuck in the mud with a fish ripping out 30 yards of drags with it locked down with every push of its tail

thumb What are you using for bait?


My personal best is still swimming out there just getting bigger. One of these days I will quit feeding it.

Is the bait fresh or best used a little rotten?
