It was a typical Saturday for Manuel Vargas Jr., his father Manuel Vargas Sr., and his uncle Hector Vargas.

"We set up our pole and everything," said Manuel Vargas Jr., "And out of nowhere, around 12:30 in the morning, my dad got a run."
 

After sitting outside for hours, waiting for their first catch, it happened. They caught a giant alligator gar.

"When my dad got the run," said Vargas Jr., "He had a chance to set the hook. He fought it because usually on an alligator gar, you let them run. They stop and once they run again, that's when you set the hook."
