Fishing The Maumee River For Gar Pike


This was the Quadruple Threat's (QT) Debut. The QT was designed by me to catch long-nose gar-pike. It has been evolving since 2001 when I started my gar-pike obsession. The goal is simple: CATCH AS MANY GAR AS POSSIBLE ON TACKLE..The lure proved to be fruitful on this gorgeous day. In four hours with a 2 man team, the QT caught 6 gar pike, 3 channel catfish, and 1 flathead catfish. We fished the Maumee River in OHIO at a secret locale. And yes, the QT can catch more than just gar pike!!!

Unfortunately, the QT still has its drawbacks. We had over 40 hits and still only landed six gar-pike. Granted, this is an improvement from previous prototypes.

The Sully Slayer, my fishing buddy, demonstrated the versatility of this revolutionary lure by fly-fishing with it. I opted for spinning tackle.

Sully too is a gar-pike aficionado. And together, we had a blast during this on-going R&D phase of the QT. He is currently making an updated model for another attempt at catching this ever-so elusive fish on tackle.Here is a little bit of info about my guiding service.

I own and operate BRAVO ZULU OUTDOOR GUIDED ADVENTURES. I have been guiding friends and family at no charge for over 30 years. All my trips are easy, simple, safe, and fun. The adventures can be enjoyed by any adult from novice to expert. I also plan trips for children over the age of 3.

As RAMBO, my mentor and life time role-model, once said, "THIS IS WHO WE ARE, THIS IS WHAT WE DO."

Yup, that sums up BRAVO ZULU OUTDOOR GUIDED ADVENTURES (A PROUD AMERICAN ENTERPRISE)
