DonO, I am starting to become hesitant now. I don't want to kill a gar because of the means used to catch one. Being up here in MN, I know we have them here in one of our major rivers, but it's not like it's in exploded population where it would be justified just to add another species to my life-list of fish caught; which by the way is up to 29 species. ;)
