Did you know that a large alligator gar fish will attract humans?

I've seen them and smelled them. Believe me there is nothing attractive about an alligator gar. Now if you meant attack, I can tell you that they are aggressive and will snap at almost anything. It is reflexsive. In the muddy water they are often in visibility is next to nothing... so they are just a likely to bite a person, or a pig, or dog, or cow, or anything that swims near them.
