What were you trying to catch the gar with?

idk where we live in orlando fl its near some doctors office... we were fishing and i was using a normal red/black worm with a weight and my dad was using some red/green fat worm looking lure and he was getting them mostly, we are trying shiners next saturday in the lake we have a friend who catches them and lets them go and he says if u find a deep spot in there use shiners and u will catch fish none stop so

For gar try a piece of cotton rope about 2-3 inches long. Tie your line to it, tie a short piece of red ribbon at the top, then fray the rope its whole length. This fuzzy part will get caught in the fine teeth of the gar, just keep a constant pressure on the line when one bites. It's not hard to get them off once you land them, it just sticks because the teeth are slightly slanted to the rear of the fish.
