I have eaten gar before - a Cajun friend of mine mixed it into like a hush-puppy type mix of some sort and it was delicious! Told me had to rake the meat off of the fish with an ice cream scoop since they are so bony.

I wonder how many people you've sent to the Falls now after posting this! Ha ha ha!
lol i know but they can take out all the drum they want. i make fried gar the other day it was very good i made it like crab cakes
