Wish I snapped a picture in time, but was too worried to get it in the boat...With that being said, tied on a deep diver crankbait by the spillway. First cast something huge got on.....fought for about 5 min, my longest and most intensive fight ever. Finally got it close to the boat and what do I see??? The most pretty, black and white spotted alligator gar about 4 foot long..Didn't get it in the boat before he just let go of my lure....can't wait to dive in and swim in Worth again..yikes..lol sorry no pic!!!

THAT HAPPENED TO ME LAST NIGHT TOO! at the same lake.... except i was fishing for cats and i didn't land the fish. I was using big cut gizzard shad for bait and I had my drag locked up. And even with it locked up whatever it was freight training line outta my reel.
