Guest Aron Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 Garfish = yummy butterfly along the gut line - roll with a rolling pin on a bread board to crush all the bones, lightly flour and fry in butter till crispy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneLastCast Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 Congrats Diane. Gars are great eating and surprisingly filling. I have caught about that number once, nice big sea gars, and thought it might just feed 8 adults and 2 kids. We ended up having some left over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diane Posted November 16, 2006 Author Share Posted November 16, 2006 Mmmmm... love a good feed of gar Sounds like a trip to Dora Creek could be in order. How far up the creek were you fishing?? I was approx 2km up the creek but you can catch them anywhere from the channel weed beds upwards. They take a bit of burlying but it is great fun except when a large Long Tom wants to muscle in on the act!! I don't know what Gars taste like but my husband and friends love them. The fish were only medium to small but I am hoping to hook into some larger ones soon!! I have also put a few in the freezer for bait. Don't think I will be going to the Jetty today as the weather is just soooo cold and windy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
