Had a pretty good gar excursion the other day at Sardis.
Trash fish? Uh-huh....rigghhhttttt! Had a heck of a lot of fun... average catch 15 pounds. Several were closer to 30 than 20...and that is a darned big longnosed gar.
Basically, trying out Realtree version of photo bucket here....

A friend claims...or admits...to being one of two/2 gar experts in Mississippi.
No one has come forward to dispute his claim.
LOL.
Got 'em on favored gar-getter...frayed piece of rope...wire brush used to make it more "frayed/bushy"...the more fish it catches the better it is to snare 'em.
He says he can buy a near lifetime supply of baits for under $20 bucks.
Couple wraps of mono attaches to a barrel swivel...use a bullet weight for casting. Frayed rope flares in water...draws strike...teeth all tangled and the battle is on.
Bullet weight above the swivel allows casting distance and provides a fall.
We caught some spotted gar, some short nose, but most of the really big ones were all longnose.
