That might be a Spotted Gar. I haven't seen a lot of juvenile Long-nosed Gar, so I could be mistaken.
Here in OK, we have four out of five species of Gar. Long-nose, Short-nosed, Spotted, and Alligator.
Yes, they do fight good. I've tangled with lots of adult-sized Long-nosed Gar. Nice fight to them.

We catch these guys in coastal North Carolina.....we don't have their large cousins the Alligator Gar in our region.....range is more isolated to the deep South.....
