Running jugs in Manchac. Headed to get a scale. My guess is around 7 feet, 140 pounds.

Let me know when he hits over 250. 140 is big but common in Lake P

Over 250 contends for a world record...Maybe one day!

Only on the OB can a person catch a 100+ pound fish on a jug just to have someone come in and marginalize it within a couple hours. 
That's a stud, OP. I would have starred a thread too. Thanks for sharing.

Blind River Bar (RIP) had a gar tournament for 30 years and they cooked them fresh after being weighed. Fried and gar balls, it was pretty good

I asked because we normally don't keep large catfish because the taste is off. That gar must be a bitch to clean.

there have been a few over 320 lbs in gill nets over the years... I personally saw one that was 8' long and right at 300 in cameron parish in 1980.

I would literally be scared of a 300lb gar

What do you do with that nasty som billy ?
Posted on 6/11/17 at 8:59 am to The Torch
I don't eat them that big. Probably preserve the head. I keep the 3-4 footers for meat.
Posted on 6/11/17 at 9:24 am to bootlegger
I see a bunch of them while bowfishing. Any advice on cleaning them?

Tin snips and a hatchet
This is pretty much how I do it, but I use the tin snips to cut the skin/scales on either side to let the skin lay out flat while I fillet it.
