Garfish.
 
3 Attachment(s)
Me and my sone went out this morning geared up for some garfishing on the south end of the lake. Went with a box of worms, a few bream poles, and some poles rigged up for the monstas! Started pimping bream from the side of the boat, putting them on the big poles for bait, and throwing them out to maranate!. Beautifull water in Miami rite now!

My buddy caught 2 nice gars and I caught one that went for 4'9" and 35 lbs. I have a video of my podna pulling in his fish and ill have it on you-tube as soon as i figure out out to post videos.

I never kilt my garfish till I got home.
Leave them alive and the meat last longer in the sun.
Just leave them in the bottom of the boat and throw a
wet grass sack over them. They stay live till you get
home.

southern151 08-01-2010 10:38 AM

We have some 150qt ice chests to put them in. We tried leaving them in the boat somewhere, but the bastids with reek havoc in ya boat when they decide to start flopping around. One like I had about 5 foot long can spread crap around in ya boat in seconds. They always seen to want to start flopping when you leave ya tacklebox unsnapped or open. So now, mine get kilt while they still in the water.

Ray 08-01-2010 02:49 PM

I just bring jug lines and bait.
I bring a big ice chest for Cats,
but leave them fanged bastids
live.

Creole Fisherman 10-12-2010 02:25 PM

are there any good places around New Iberia to do some bank fishing for garfish?

Garfish 10-13-2010 01:15 PM

Good fight and good food there.

Creole Fisherman 03-15-2011 02:54 PM

Are there any locations that anyone can recommend where you can fish from the bank for alligator gar? Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
