Thanks,

yeah just the spotted. Unless hungdang sends me some of his I might not find a spotted. The main supplier(solo) is at his new gig and when he had some I didn't have the funds for them, by that I mean the wife shut me down, again. I got the feelers out so we'll see.

I have spotteds and LNG in the waters where I'm stationed here in MO. If I catch a small SPG this spring I'll keep you in mind! Since I won't be out any money by catching it, if you can figure out a way to get it up there you can have it for cost of transportation.

I caught like eight of them last year, all about a foot.

Nice, I appreciate that. I have found LNG all around me. I am going to check out some more sng spots this year. I may even just go for a drive. I've passed through mo a few times. What do you usually get them on?

If I'm actively targeting them I catch them with the frayed rope lure. If I catch one accidentally its normally on live or a rubber crawfish.

This is the only picture I've ever taken of one of the smaller ones. You can see why. I suspect they're SPG as thats what the wardens say we have and well, they're covered in spots. Can you tell if they're right from this shot?

Caught him on a Rapala crankbait. Someone cut the poor thing's snout off and tossed it back. I'm guessing to get their hook back. It was clearly starving with how enthusiastically it went after the Rapala. A guy I was fishing with wanted it to make gar balls so that fish's problems were over.

I normally release everything though.

At least you kept it. I am about 89% release rate. Winter time, or trout or fish food those account for the other percent.

Yeah I'll keep catfish and trout, but my bass and oddballs are almost always let go. This guy would have been culled regardless. I feel it was a mercy. I'm just happy I had an old Cajun with me who thought it looked tasty lol

Thanks. Nice, but might want to keep that one on the d.l.

The store didn't know what they had they just labeled it Marble Gar is what there wholesaler listed it as. I spotted it didn't tell them I knew what is really was I just snatched it up.
