How do u bisect a gar ???

[Weylin]

You have to pull scales in the area you want to cut. I use needle-nose pliers. They seem to be the only thing you can get under each scale.

I managed to do it.. with a scissors..after making a small cut.. Really though scales..

Yeah, those things are very well protected.

a trick I learned being a taxidermist, is to have tin snips handy whenever you want to do anything that requires the skin removal of a gar. Tough lil buggers!

what's "bisect"??

It is applicable in this situation. It means to cut something in half. Dissect is more exploratory.
