Gar, Spotted - Unrestricted Tackle





Weight:
11lb 12 oz
04/09/05

Location:
Lake Overcup

Angler:
Joseph (Gene) Miller

Details:
Gene Miller was bowfishing on the backside of Lake Overcup when he took this spotted gar.
This one was taken while bowfishing, hence the unrestricted tackle, but I don't think Lake Overcup is in Illinois or is that one that I've missed but have to put that on my list of things to do.

BTW, Lake Overcup is in Arkansas, so you still only need a measly 8 lber to be tops in the Land of Lincoln
