Fishing with Allyse my 8 year old we managed to land a 40# catfish early in the day and then hook up a truly massive alligator gar just before dark. we got to see the gar we hooked twice while she was running with the bait and she was easy 7 foot or more. Allyse still wanted to try to land her so we did the best we could, in the end it was my hookset that failed cause she spat the bait after about a minute and a half of crazy pressure and getting towed. going to be back after them in just a day or two. trying to catch a few more gar over 7 foot so far im up to 3 over 7 foot in 2 weeks
