283 pound Alligator Gar, 6 pound test line

[Koz]

It took him almost 3 hours to reel it in. That's some talented fishing to land it on 6 pound line.

6 lb test! Incredible. Giant fish. During my bowfishing decade, I had a few shots at Gator gar but couldn't bring myself to kill a fish that was possibly older than me.
