Down here in florida,I keep going catfishing at a local river and catch 10-12 bowfin in about 3 hours...Pretty funny to hear you guys only seeing a few. (Too bad bowfin hit before cats do,only ever caught 1 channel cat)
All my bowfin are caught on cut bluegill.
Heads,body,tail, you name it,they will eat it

Bowfin and gar are great fighting fish,but just bumb you out when your looking to bring food back home

This is what I did once and it was weird because it was like you were eating nothing.

I have tried gar bites :smile2:,they taste like scallops.They are chewy and good but weird since your expecting fish.With ketchup they are pretty good though.
