"The limit on gar is 2 per person..."


Proceeds to shoot 37 gar in a row.


Great shooting! Congrats on the monster at the end!

Love bowfishing. Can't wait for the warm weather to hit.

Im. 60 years old and have seen the big gator gar population decimated with bow fishing, I grew fishing the Trinity river and have seen their numbers decline. The one thing about bow fishing there is no catch and release

Love bowfishing, but wish they protected the alligator gar. It's one of the few species that preys on the asian carp destroying our river systems.

Do you guys eat all of those fish? Or just killing too kill?

[davidduffy]

Your skin is really clear, what exfoliating cream do you use?

[OscarOutdoors]

DANG GUYS! IT LOOKED LIKE YOU WERE TWO BULL FIGHTERS TRYING TO TAKE DOWN A BULL!

[apocalimp]

how stupid can u get by killing all the predators when theres an invasive species?

[daves.]

I thought the idea was to protect alligator gar now.

[dublelung]

That was some fine shooting. Congrats on the huge record fish. Also glad to see Kevin on the show.

Did someone say "we're gonna need a bigger boat".

Hay come up to the ILLINOIS river and have fun with the big head carp . Good job on the video keep it up 👍👍👍👍🇺🇸

[NomadIceAngler]

Pretty neat, but I would rather see catch and release.

[jrcostilla]

I would tell you good luck normally but if there is a carp problem I don't understand killing gar . It's sad to say but this is why the carp keep spreading and taking over. But the dnr there should do something its their job and area of expertise

Killing a fish that's over 100 years old?? That's B.S. to me!!
