How are they as table fare?
I have heard they are good if you steak them out like a shark. I've caught a few on accident, but never kept one. I've never caught one small enough to be legal. Every one I've ever got to the boat was damn near 6 ft long. When you hook something like that in the tail or back, they'll spool you in a second. There's an area of a river I fish where they congregate sometimes. Hard to bass fish there without snagging them. Might be 200-300 in a 100yd stretch.

Similar to a gar maybe?

I have caught a few on crappie jigs in the diversion overflow. I don't think they actually bit at the bait, but I may have been able to argue it wasn't snagging. Between the current and 6lb test, it would take me over 15 minutes to land them.
