My youngest Madison and I both shot our first gar this spring, I finally had a little extra time to mount them, having trouble with Kodak easy share and can't get pics up, anyone that can help out? can e-mail no problem but won't share with photobucket ? Bottom fish a little darker than I wanted, have worked out a better paint scheule for next time, Madys fish turned out just the way I wanted, not hard to mount, just no commercial forms or eyes for gar, had to make my own. Mady was shooting an old Tigercat and I had my PSE coyote. Pics to follow, thanks TJ
Here you are Brother, nice fish.

That is neat !!!!
Very cool! You did a good job!
Those are awesome,good job.
Now that is impressive! I have never mounted a critter, but I love gar. I would give serious consideration to that in the future. Nice work!
pretty cool and a good memory - great idea!
Nice job!
Thanks guys ! Like I said not real happy with bottom fish but was a good learning opportunity, paid off really well for the second fish, want to do more in the future, enjoyed mounting these two, next up is a big carp, have to shoot it first!
Looks good to me! :thumbsup:
Don't get me wrong, overall happy with mount, I'm just very critical of my work, and Thank You for the compliments
Beautiful!!!!
Nice job.....that's something you don't see everyday.
I shot a black gar once. Pretty rare around here. Man they are cool, I should have had it mounted. Nice work.
Someone needs to mount a gator gar. Imagine that taxi bill! Paying by the inch.
Wouldn't be to bad TJ, right around $750-$800 for a 6ft'er, same as a pair of whitetails, would be worth it if you had the wall space and a very understanding spouse!
WOW! That is way cool! :thumbsup:
Super nice!

That is really cool :thumbsup:
That is sweet! :thumbsup:
cool! we think alike,
i have a 53" longnose halfway mounted , but has a bad fin on the bottom, so i quit and was trying to get one about the same size so i could remove the fins from it and finish that one, i was going to mount with arrow in it, thought it would make a good mount. good job!
