They expect to have a trophy fishery with a species that is slow growing and long living. Wow.

I love eating gar and would rather spend the whole day fishing and not catch anything. Than slaughter s gar with a bow arrow any day in fact down south we’re im from there a lot of bow fishing and I’m against it I’m a traditional guy.

I want the to see the gar live for many more years to come and I would hope that they put a ban on bow hunting for gar because some bow hunting just leave them oh the bank to rot.

All species need to be protected and preserved

These regs are still not stringent enough. Create quarterly short duration bowfishing seasons. A shot fish is a dead fish. These seasons would be more easily managed, and would keep people honest.

We usually only get one chance to save a species, because The Alligator Gar is a rough fish it does not get the advantage of being Sport fish with the dollars to preserve their habitats and species. We have to do what is right sometimes even if it is not popular. Thank You.

Unsustainable management of a large species such as the Alligator Gar will ultimately lead to an ecosystem collapse. Scientifically supported management plans should be implemented that ensure the long-term success of this species. Such actions would help to maintain healthy fisheries for future generations.

Ancient creatures become ancient history when they aren't protected from overharvesting and encroachment.
