You guys should really go to the River Monsters Facebook page and check out the discussion topics. Mainly the one on gator gar and the Ohio River. You'd get a pretty good laugh with the claims of 17 foot gar (someone even suggested it was a longnose gar), and 500lb catfish in that river.
**EDIT** One other thread Gar Fish In The Ohio River. Also other claims of catching 456lb gars and 25lb black bass.
