was loads of fun looking forward to going again whenever you ready smile. and as for filleting the gar i dont i just scale them cut off the head gut them and roll over them a few times with a rolling pin to break up the bones. then i just roll them in corn meal and some cajun spice and pan fry them.

I have a little trick I use for de-boning Garfish...........
Depending on the size of the gar, use a coke bottle or a Gatorade bottle, slightly sharpen the rim of the bottle and slide the spine down into the bottle. Once you get the hang of it you can get a pretty clean Gar ready for cooking.
