Nov. Slab of the Month Entry: Brazos Gar

From the inbox:

Chum,

Last Sunday my girlfriend caught this gar after a 20 min fight on the Brazos River near Graham, Tx.  We didnt get a measurement or weight but I'd put it at 4' or a bit more and weighing around 25 lbs.  This is her first fish on a fly rod.  I personally have yet to land one this large.  Needless to say now I have to break up with her.

Nov Slab of the Month Entry: Aligator Gar

Angler:  Joel Stewart
Location: Pascagoula Mississippi
Delio: 100+lb alligator gar on a 8wt TFO rod, using a white streamer.

Biggest gar ever caught on a fly?  Until proven otherwise, we're gonna give it a nod.  In the meantime, we're gonna suggest Joel sticks up a weight or two if he's gonna make this a habit.
