That is a huge and ugly fish!

Not that I care, but doesn't the story given sound a bit far fetched? I think that fish may have been dead when brought aboard the boat.

Unfortunately, alligator gar are only dangerous when you pull them into your boat.
They are fish eaters and scavengers, not aggressive like a pike.
They are hearty fish that can survive out of water for sometime, and are usually caught by hook or by bow and arrow. They have a very thick skin "just like an alligator".

I don't know about eating them, but killing them just for the sake of getting your mug in the news is rather dissappointing.

Oh well, at least when we keep and kill monster stripers, they do get eaten (in most cases).

I agree. . . .Sounds fishy to me.
I can't picture anyone grabbing that thing by the gill, and pulling it in the boat, if it was still alive.

You would need full body armor, and not the modern stuff. You would need what the knights used to wear.
