    Bro! No need for the gym after that! That’s awesome. I’ve been very uneducated about fish even though I’ve grown up fishing all my life. Use to throw flat heads back while bass fishing but that is some of the whitest best meat ever! Only hooked a few of these but next time I’m putting it in the ice chest and eating it! That’s some great looking meat! Thanks for the video you make it look easy.

    Sir..!! Unfortunately I'm in Florida now for the past 13 years, but I'm originally from Virginia.. and we have alligator gar like that in Virginia, most people killed them and left them on the banks to rot, a total shame.. my family used to fillet them out like you did, only we used pruning shears to get through top and you used a cleaver.. well done sir..!!! Well done..!! Semper-fi..!! Maybe I can book a trip with you for my son and I... he is 11and a great fisherman in his own right.. 😉

  • @dudethibodeaux2889
    @dudethibodeaux2889 Рік тому +2

    There's a reason that the belly meat is left behind sir. Especially in the older fish unfortunately there's a little thing called mercury that is stored there. If this isn't a concern for you then by all means continue but I'd suggest looking into the mercury content in your area. It can cause many health problems. The smaller ones are better eaters and cleaner.
