And neither of these are record-class - they're certainly large, but as the guy
says in the article, there are larger ones swimming around. *Gives a whole
'nuther meaning to "rolling on the river...." *(for those that aren't familiar
with these, they "roll" on the surface). *

And no, AFAIK, you can't fly fish for these, unless you'd consider flinging a
chicken wired to grappling hook-sized treble with a stick of fencepipe "fly
fishing." *These things eat the things that eat the things for which one would
normally fly fish down here... *

Don't know if would work for alligator gar, but for their smaller
brethren: http://www.flyfishga.com/gar.htm
