Default Looking forAlligator Gar TIPS

Try a wire leader, tied to Power Pro Fishing Line. I would use Power
Pro 30lb which is the diameter of like 10lb mono and it won't cut
your eyelets like other braided lines.

Good Luck,

Use spinnerbaits and replace the rubber skirt with either a frayed nylon
rope, or pantyhose.

For a fun twist, fish for them with a long cane pole. Just before the line
breaks, let go of the cane pole - they will run a short distance, where you
can once again pick up the cane pole and fight them some more. That's how
they fish for muskies up north anywayz.....
