Nice gar and that release was funny some people are freaking out when it didn't matter to the fish

@werewfistruefate9 I don't think it was intentional. He was just trying to dive him straight down to get him to deeper water quicker where the temps are cooler and more oxygenated. Of course, I think he was just a bit tired and over rotated him by accident. This is the same technique a lot of striped bass fisherman use when practicing 'catch and release' in the summer time (minus the fish body-slam :p ).

@BobFrick awesome attitude towards the flamers! one comment though, when releasing your fish, would it be possible to prevent the fish from landing on its back? Although gar are more sturdy than most fish, slapping into water (regardless of depth) can still injure the organs of a any fish. Just food for thought.

i dont know much about gar but is that a proper release? dont think so
-
that was a dam nice gar
-
where i come from their a nusence and i have always been brot up to avoid ketching them but you cant always do that and if you did you cut their heads off and reales em back for the turtles but i seen somewhere a guy got a TON of meat off of them and said they taste great so im not gunna waste any more of them!

lowering a fish that size into the water by yourself can through your back out. The water is obviously deep enough so that the gar had a comfortable landing. Gar are extremely hardy, and tossing that fish would be less stressful that a human standing stationary and falling in a soft patch of grass. Unfortunately, in orlando many fisherman kill them for population control. It's nice to see your respect and love for one of our coolest native aquatic species. Keep it up buddy.

Did look a bit heavy handed didnt it. Im pretty sure it didn't hurt it though. Not with it being dead and all.
I love the comments, mainly the dumb ones! Just keep watching, there will be more to come soon!

I am sorry you dont understand, what happened, while I tried to get the fish back down into deeper water. They will sometimes kick as you push them down, and that reason is to get them into cooler water. I watch my fish and make sure they down. If you had expererance, with these fish you would understand what happens on a release of a 61 inch Longnose Gar, ALSO GOD BLESS YOU YOU NEED IT.
