Yes, but rare...
There are Gar fish in Winnipesaukee but there are rare and not as large as they are in other regions. I have caught a few over the years...never more than 2 in a season though...and the largest was only about 45 pounds. The last one I hooked was 3 years ago. They are nasty fish and I've only caught them in area with muddy bottoms in about 30 feet of water...usually during very hot summers, too, for some reason. They are out there, but I am guessing the population is very small since they are caught so rarely....
