Gar! Cumberland river, all the creeks have the short nose gar in them, Dale also has a lot of gar. Hook quite a few of them trolling for crappie on hotntots, but landing them is something else. .When we were in Louisiana, a coon---,showed us a trick that really worked.!/4 oz jig, white twister tail, and a piece of red nylon yarn fluff it up, it tangles in their teeth for a second giving you time to set the hook. The yarn thing I forgot about, but we used yarn with our spawn sacks for the same results when drifting baits for steelhead.Bow fin or grinnel, maybe barren river, saw a few caught there.Yes they will tear up a rapala or rouge.
