yeah, I didn't think you could eat gar...then I heard about gar balls. I still haven't ever had gar though.

I'll only kill a moccasin if I've got room for it on my grill.

As a teen, we used to go catch them big suckers way back in the day down the MRGO on trout rods. Talk about a blast. Ice chest full of Miller pony's were the ticket.

So no one in this thread has gotten upset about him killing this fish



not that I've noticed. Just asked why he took it if it wasn't for the record? could be he wasn't aware of what he had? could be he "felt like it". All fine with me. I just asked a simple question. Not inflammatory, not to deride the hunter, not to defend wildlife. Just to ask.
YOU on the other hand and those sensitive, easily-offended like you, seem to be the very thing you are railing against- big, giant, vaginas who are quick to get on the defensive.

When I see someone with tarpon in both his sig and avi say, "so what was the point of taking it then?" then I immediately assume they are taking the side of "ERMAHGERD DERNT HERT DA FISHES!"

Sorry if I got upset and defended my brother's actions. I've had to deal with a lot of the afore mentioned tarponies

you catch little grief from the tarpon crowd about your undersea habits?
I'm fine with his trophy. I might be worried about some fish, but gar aint one of them.

Nice. I would have shot that stupid gar in its gar arse face too. Then I probably would have beat it to bloody hell with a boat paddle for no other reason than ive been beating stupid gars to bloody hell with boat paddles since I've been old enough to wet a hook. Congrats to bro hat
