  • Опубликовано: 8 июн 2024
  • My buddy Johny of South Florida Fishing Charters invited Yames and I to go fish Lake Ida in Delray Beach, Florida. Our primary goal was to catch Florida Gar and bring them home for dinner. We also targeted Peacock Bass and Clown Knife Fish. Florida gar are generally referred to as trash fish and not many people consumer any gar species. This is because they are very difficult to fillet and the meat is very tough and can easily be overcooked!

    I used to blowfish the Coosa River, and the Alabama River for years. We'd get carp, gar, etc... We also used to catch them on rods & reels... We'd buy the deepest-diving, brightest and ugliest crank baits we could get out of the WalMart $1 bin, and 55 lbs. braid, and spinning tackle, and we'd catch 4-7 footers all day long by the dam. We'd gar fish when the bass bite was slow in the middle of the day. We hooked into one, one afternoon, that was OVER half the length of the 16' Old Town canoe we were in... Line broke as we got it up to the boat, and never got a picture to prove it. The one that got away always haunts you the most.
    We never did try to clean and cook them, but I might try it someday. 👍🏻

    ROFL 😂 I just did the charter last week with Johnny... Awesome day btw... And he was so happy we hadn't hooked any gar. He's like "we can catch them if you want but I hate the things". Somehow Victor gets him to spend a day catching and eating them. Love this stuff! Love you guys! Keep up the awesome videos. BTW Captain Johnny knows that lake like the back of his hands. So he'll get you on ANYTHING you want to be on.

    Pops-in-law talking about the balls...I learned how to fish catching gar as a kid. Had a great friend whose dad was from S Louisiana who took us fishing a lot. He would use an ice cream scoop on the top loin of the big gars, and fried them and they called them gar balls. Great vid brother as always and very good/humble job with Yames. He is very talented and an awesome chef! Stay safe and God Bless

    I caught them in Oklahoma. I used a sharpened garden trowel to force them open. I heard the Indians used the gar outer armour as a quiver for their arrows. They cooked the fish whole, "Fished" the meat out and used the resultant tube as an arow quiver.

    You should try catching the gar using nylon rope for a lure. No hooks, the teeth get stuck on the rope fibers... 6 inches of rope ,burn one end, and unravel the other side to make it look like a bucktail jig. I saw it on Richard Gene the fishing machine's channel. pretty neat way to catch them

    I'm from Texas...the gar you guys ate were small. I've caught 10lbs-40lbs.....the bigger they were,the better they cooked and tasted. We use a cooking disk. Cooking them like carnitas or tripe. Hot hot heat and like a steak. Try it some time ya'll. You'll sink your forks and knives like butter.

    Word of advice for those tryna clean gar. Get aviator shears/tin snips. They'll work loads better than those garden scissors. Also once you have step one done the armor should be able too be peeled away from the flesh. I've never done Florida gar cause I live in Texas but it should be about the same process

  • @michaelmeredith1543
    @michaelmeredith1543 3 года назад

    Use a hatchet to get through the tough scales. Start under the back dorsal and work towards the head and its much easier/ faster than using sheers.

    I use a whopper plopper and replace the hooks with a size or two larger trouble hooks and they'll follow it and try to hit it mid lure then more times than not that back hook will actually set between the bottom jaw bones and its one of the best sight fishing experiences you can have!
