I've caught plenty. I am strictly catch and release. I wouldn't kill one just to have it mounted. When will someone make a replica for gar like they do for all the other fish? So all you need would be a photo and measurements


How long was the gar you just mounted?
Awesome job

Just like many of the big bass I do, some gar are just not going to make it. BUT, some are bow kills. I think the alligator gar need some regulation. Dont forget the passenger pigeon. They are so unique, I respect them for all that. There are many molders that sell alligator gar replicas. They are very pricy!!

!Nice mount! Curious.... why did you use a crappie as the Gar's meal target?

Only because I had molded the crappie and it was free to me. I did have a big bluegill and didnt want to waste it on a gar mount. I didnt charge the customer for it either. Ive never found anything in gar stomachs but what appeared to be carp or buffalo.

Don't know, never asked. I got just what you see. I've done them from 5'+ to 7'+. But unless someone tells me when they bring one, it doesn't matter to me when I'm just doing the shoulder mounts.
