the PetsBarn petstore chain gets them in every once in a while, not sure if they are in your area or not.

aren't gars native in Texas? Why not catch them?

 

[piranha45]

not everyone has a pole and line and several hours to burn, when $20 will accomplish the same thing...

Ur missing the point. It's fun to catch ur own fish sometimes

 

[rayman45]

again a few hours of your time or 20$

heh. yep very much so. partly why I want one.
I'm an avid angler to. But I would rather get something rather small (less than 12'') thats already well on it's way to being acclimated than risk killing one that I could have left alone to grow 9ft long and eat nutrias and unattended school children

I actually do lol. i go fishing everyday almost. just never catch gars and yeah I'd rather buy one than yank a treble hook out ones face with some pliers and toss him in a tank and hope he lives!
