Fishing in the rain with Uncle Brother Dave

BPS usually has them on sale during the Spring Classic sale, but I don't remember for how much.

Fished a couple hours mid day today in the wind between sits in the woods.  Managed one keeper walleye, 2 shorts, a nice gar, one 15 inch crappie and one big stinking bass.

Heartiest congratulations on that nice gar.

Did you clean it? 
I never have but the rumor is they are really good cleaned the right way.  Tenderloins if I recall.

I have cleaned them before with a chop saw and tin snips. Very good to eat, just a lot of work and mess everywhere from the chop saw. Fixed some fried gar back straps for my wife while we were dating. I think that helped to seal the deal.

LOL, I can only imagine the mess with the chop saw.  However that is a new one I haven't heard before.  Hatchet and it snips do decently well though.
