I've heard people say you can catch them at Mckinney's Towne Lake or in Wilson creek right next to Towne Lake. Not sure if its true. I think people caught those gar on the discharge side of the dam at Lavon but I could be wrong, and I don't think you can even fish there anymore.

Just about now, the spotted gar should be spawning on shallows. Although typically the lake is a lot higher, and they would be among the shoreline brush, but with the lake so low, I'm not sure. Typically, I've seen the all over the place this time of year.


John 5:24 Very truly I say to you,whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life,and does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life.

1Peter 3:18 For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive in the spirit.
