I only had an hour...
Bugger and I decided to go for a quick adventure tonight. We had about an hour until sundown, and we thought it was enough time. Our target species was gar. After setting out a few jugs, we also casted a few poles. After a bit of no action, we decided to pray. Soon, the line on my pole was running out, so I grabbed it and set the hook. Fish on! While it may have been the only fish we caught, it put up a great fight and we got a fish to help feed our family. I've got some photos of Bugger with it at the lake that I'll have to get off my phone, but Pinkie took these photos with the camera when I got back home. What a wild fish!!! Enjoy the pics.

Good catch. I caught a six foot one on a little zebco push button when I was a kid using minnows for bait. They bite like a shark normally when they hit. Grab the bait and make a run for it, rather than gobbling it like a bass. Good to pull them out though as they prey on young game fish pretty heavy. Great post @pappapepper. Happily upvoted.
Love the photos and your expression! That a big one!
Nice looking fish, thanks for sharing it!
