Steve Barclay didn't know what his client had just shot. All he knew was that it was huge.
Barclay, along with his partner Sam Lovell (The Gar Guys), had been guiding novice bowfisherman Brian Gouliquer on the Trinity River near Crocket, Texas last April when Gouliquer shot at a fin beneath the surface of the murky water. It took all three men, Gouliquer, Barclay, and Lovell, to haul the massive fish onto the boat. When it was over they were looking at a 7-foot 7-inch long, 250-pound alligator gar.

Have you ever landed an alligator gar? What about another gar species? If you've got a photo of the fish, send it in! We'll enter it into our Game Faces contest, and if it gets published in the magazine, we'll give you a $99 flashlight from SureFire. Send it to fsletters@time4.com. Good luck, and good fishing! |
