They were also in the Buffalo river when I was young. I also think there may be a few that travel up bear creek in Searcy County as I have seen during the long nosed gar spawn in a pool in bear creek a fish at least 7 feet long turn over and swim around with other gar. The pool is one of the deepest in bear creek and isn't very easy to get to so maybe some alligator gar still survive in the Buffalo and spawn in bear creek with the other gar?
One of the most magnificient fish in all of freshwater.....really glad to see our biolgists working to preserve these fish and more anglers here in Arkansas do well to conserve these fish too. Most folks don't realize what a treasure these fish are. In the state of Texas, they're a very popular Sport fish...and for good reason. In truth, the Alligator Gar prefers to feed on these rough fish like Buffalo Carp, Shad, etc.. over other game fish.
What in the hell are you talking about... Google oldest fossil or even when dinosaurs walked the earth... Just because your read something stupid doesn't mean you have to go out of your way to sound stupid...
Do you know when the word "dinosaur" was created?? I seriously doubt it, so I'll help you. In the mid-1800s. Want to know what they were called before that??? Dragons. The Bible called them dragons. There's pottery w/ dinos and mankind together. Even Marco Polo said he saw dinos pulling carts in China. You're welcome.

Alligator Gar have been around for 100M yrs? That's amazing, seeing how science has proven the earth to only be 6000 yrs old.

filoIII Carbon dating... {Drops mic}
Carbon dating has been proven to be unreliable...Unless you think living snails are 2500 yrs old...{Drops mic}
Carbon dating is circular reasoning anyway. These fish have been here since the flood.
Gar is great when it's marinated and smoked.
Hopefully they develop a taste for Asian Carp "Kentucky Tuna"?
I went out to Horse Shoe lake and they are full of gar.
Do they remove the hook? If not dose the hook hurt the fish?
+Clyde Wofford really? are you an idiot by trade?
Change in Habitat? What you meant to say is the man made navigation channel. Make the Corp start a stocking program, they destroyed the habitat.
They get huge, I've caught several over 50 pounds.
They are talking about alligator gar, not the regular gar you see all the time
Cud yu play yur musik skore a little louder?!?
Those Asian carp are all through the White River. Don't go fast on the water, you might get hit in the face by one.
Lol....when your job for the day is to go fishing.....oh I mean research.
😂🐊🎣🤷♂️ People say good eating. Also there are many other things that reduced their zero population growth.
