Nice fish and congratulations on your record. You are having a good year! Side Note: Do you use a metal leader.

That is some heavy tackle! Try getting one of those on ultralight tackle! Side Note: You ever catch a gar from a kayak? Also did you ever make it to Placid? If so how did you do? Lots of Longnose Gar in that part of the river!

Yeah I watched a boy weigh one that weighed 206 on the grain scales at the feed store 2 years ago asked what he was going to do with it said nothing I think I would have asked him for it and made up some gar balls!
