actually unless you know for sure that the fish was caught from the area it is always better to recognise them as florida or spotted gars
very minute difference to tell them apart

that was said with a little sarcasm. people always want them to be precisely ID'd and it just isnt going to happen...unless of course you know the locality from were the fish was captured. most other methods of ID require killing the fish and performing a necropsy. the two are just so similar that there really isnt a reason to worry about which of the two you have.

BTW...you know this thread is over a year old?
