Brody said We got some chicken at the house. That made my day
@@jamiejohnston4983 his mind was on them chicken legs we bought 😂😂😂
When I was a girl my daddy would catch the big ones and mama would cook them. They were delicious! I grew up in southern Oklahoma on the Red river however most of the gar were in the creeks.
Hey Justin!
It was good to see all three of you heading out... and Roscoe riding shotgun! Catching one on your first cast is a feeling that is hard to put into words... but fishermen know what you mean! Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! Too bad that the rest of the casts were not as productive, despite Brody trying out his Birthday pole.
For your first attempt, it went well. Like everything else in Life, the more you practice it, the easier it becomes. Of course, the final test is "how does it taste?", and judging from the results... leftovers are only a theoretical possibility! Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!
My Mom use to be the expert at catching garr. She would always pressure cook them because they had a lot of bones in them, then she would make patties out of them just like salmon.
Brody aproved then its gotta be good. I'll definitely try it if i catch 1 . Deep fried of course.
Gar is delicious anyway you want to cook it. It's best to get one between 3' and 4' long that way you get enough meat to make a good fry. Make gar balls or gar patties the same way you would make choepic balls or patties. Like cod fish cakes. Boil it not too long and flake it in with boiled potatoes with green onions and creole seasoning and fry. Delicious 😋.
Looks like your menu just expanded. I've heard many different fish are bad eating. Never has been the case when I try them. Some are more of a hassle to clean of course. Good video man. 👍
@@topstrikefishing i think your right. The difficulty in preparing them makes many folks justify calling something trash

Good stuff love your content keep on keeping on
so much delicious food. Like
I have been watching videos about this very thing for a couple weeks, your skinning was very similar to most i watched, the end result is the same as the rest, folks loved them so i am going to try this one day as well as the grinnel, no telling how many we have thrown back over the years because of what we heard from folks who probably did not know what they were talking about
❤ GOOD MORNING!!
@@lookoutmountaingarockhunte1300 been missing you
we have shortnose and longnose gar here. ive been eating them for years. i usually cut them in small chunks instead of a fillet but i never cleaned one that small lol
@@longbowbanjoAL ive gotta learn how to catch them better
@@SpiritoftheOutdoors a good bowfishin arrow works best. we've caught them jugfishing 2 or 3 foot deep using store minners. use soft twine instead of coated bank like because if they grab the line and not the hook their teeth will stick in the soft rope and still catch them. only ever got one with a limb line. pole fishing watch richard genes video on using frayed anchor rope or if using a hook and floater you have to let him run with it. and when he stops to swallow it give him another minute or two to make sure he has it swallowed then reel him in. other than that i caught a small one on a rooster tail once when the treble hook encased his jaws and my buddy caught one last week with a live bluegill on the bottom. after 2 missed hook sets i told him it was a gar and he let it run with it and swallow it then he reeled it in. on gar the dreaded braid line is your friend lol
Love watching you and Brody. 👍
I been wanting to try one I told cousin Vinnie on pelican bone to maybe use a sawz all on that thing he had a big one
Some people use a skilsaw. Set it a 1/4" deep an run it right up both sides of the back, remove the middle section then hull the meat out right on around the body until you make it tho the bottom of the shell underneath the belly. You can cook a courbion with red gravy just like you would with redfish or cook it anyway you would any other fish. It's really good on the BBQ grill.
It took me time to figure gar out,when you use small hook and bait like a minnow,lethem run for 10 second so they can get the bait down in there mouth,it works.
And only set the hook when they are running away from you, or you'll pull it right outta that skinny mouth!
My Dad would catch them below the Pickwick Dam. Lots of bones. Shovel Bill are great but not as plentiful anymore.
That's interesting, never ate one of those. Sure looked good.
Brody's looks are changin right before our eyes! His face looks like a big boy! Time sure flies! I never cleaned a garfish, but I seen somebody on a video use tin snips to unzip em down the middle. They used a hatchet to chop off the ends and them aviation snips and shucked him right out.
@@tommylitchfield3450 yea my Facebook memories break my heart
He sure is growing. Like a weed the old saying says. I saw them gar cleaned same way. They said the guts and eggs or poison?
@@larryalexander4833 ive herd that i cant say for fact
@@larryalexander4833 I just googled it. C&P.."The flesh of gar is edible, but its eggs contain an ichthyotoxin, a type of protein toxin which is highly toxic to humans.".... So "Say NO to gar caviar" I reckon :)
I've not heard of nor eaten Gar. I've only had Catfish once in AK in the early 90's. Michelle's Fried Chicken looked very good 👍🏼 😋 Good supply of Apples for pies & desserts! Make some applesauce and can it too. I know that pie w/ some vanilla ice cream will be a nice yummy end to your dinner.
You need to put the dark carcass down for the chickens to eat
@@stevewilliams144 the what🤷🏻♂️
Friendly advice for catching gar is put u some cloth like a piece of your pants on your hook they get there teeth hung up in it..
never ate one that small. to me the bigger ones have a firmer texture. always heard it was just the eggs that are toxic. next one i catch im making gar balls out of and giving it a try.
Theres plenty of those around here, people just pull them out and leave them on the banks to rot.
@@mr.mojorisin9999 they do it here. I struggle with that but i see their impact of over population in our streams too
@SpiritoftheOutdoors Good day Justin, I struggle with folks who catch and leave to rot, of anything, because someone deams a specific critter invasive or nuance, might could be the Lord's way of replenishing, my point is everything can be used , up here in Michigan the dnr and the biologists began catching tons of carp in one of our many lakes , but they just threw them out, wen I was a kid we would spear carp on the flooded areas of the maple river by the 100s and use them in our gardens . I've never ate a gar nor caught 1 seem plenty though on the bank dead and in the water to. Thanks for sharing your journeys 👣 👣 👣. I like smoked fish ,suckes ,crappie, gills, just about any fish.
I just cannot make myself waste something that is good to eat, just like wild hogs, delicious meat. People shoot hogs and let them lay to feed coyotes or to rot. I just can't waste what God put here for us to harvest. @SpiritoftheOutdoors
I see you got the same tea pitcher from Walmart that I got. You figure out a way to get that lid off? Boy howdy what a bad design
@@duanejohnson7600 somebody keeps our lid crooked and I wind up pouring tea everywhere
Hope u watched the video on the outdoors boys on RUclips It was about catching gar and grinnel.
@@linwoodvowell6747 yea brody has wore it out.
There must be lots of frogs if there are gars!
@@55EllieMay yes and not many bullfrogs left
???
@@larryalexander4833 you’ve never seen all the frogs where garrs are a plenty? Garrs eat frogs!!!
@@55EllieMay can't say I ever noticed honestly. We use to fish for them in the rocks at the river shoals . Used a bream pulled across the top of water.
that gar prolly taste like chicken since you done fried it in chicken grease lol
@@rdnkrfnk that may be the secret ingredient. Sacrificial chicken
What kinda lure was it?!
@@kmnremtp top strike fishing
I can tell you exactly how to catch all of the gar you ever want!!! Get your ultralight reel and pretend you are Bream fishing with a beetle spin!!! TACKLE WRECKER!!!! YOU WILL HOOK THE BIGGEST IN THE WATER, LANDING HIM MAY BE A PROBLEM 😂😂
