My buddy Grant and I were giggling like school girls when we did the math, two 53's a 52 and a 51 incher. 2 hours fishing, 4 good casts and 209 inches of Gar....all sight fished on new favorite Gar bait. Jackall Cherry 0 footer. Quality hooks right outta the package!
Grant's new PB.
This last one was a pig, it looked like it ate a cormorant. 21 inch girth and the heaviest gar I've ever caught. Tipped the digital scale well over 22 lbs.

As a sidenote, some of you may remember Muskiemagnet. Pat has accepted a couple of guiding gig up north for the summer. Awesome experience for him as he'll be spending some time in the Kenora area then up to NWT. A going away party was put together for friends last week and despite nearly getting eaten alive by blackflies it went well.
Here's to a safe journey for him and can't wait to hear the tales upon his return.
