You don't have to explain, I would have done the same thing

I'm sold on the power pro, I have seen Bob use it and I'm sure, if, the bridge is still out, and Bob just happens to have to go through Clinton, on the way to Bucksaw, only blocks away from Everharts as he passes through and he "may" need to stop there anyway, he might just grab me a spool of the stuff he uses:D
But I don't think the bridge is still out, so maybe, someone else coming to camp could grab me some, I'll give you cash on delivery

My friend eats gar he swears by it he said there is a certain section of meat he eats and thats it. He described it as back straps that go down the top of the fish. If it tastes like back straps from a deer sign me up. O and he says use nice set of tin snips works best

I also saw a link to a video on youtube about how to remove a Gar's tenderloin.
