This is how you rope an Alligator Gar
Reeling in an Alligator Gar is just half the task. How do you land the Alligator Gar or net it? Unfortunately, there is not a net strong enough or big enough for the Giant creatures. The only way to bring them in the boat is to "Cowboy Up!" Capt Milton Nieto shows us an example of roping and landing an Alligator Gar that his Washington State guest reeled in. First you need a lasso. Second place it around the Gar mouth in just past its gills. Lastly, gently bringe the Gar over the side of the boat! I hope you enjoyed, if you habe any questions or feedback just ask. Thanks Capt. Milton Nieto
