A sight I ain't never seen!

[big_o_tom]

Going down to the beach for a bit and stopped in eufala Alabama for the night. Driving down the road I see a bass boat up ahead of me so I catch up to it so I can check it out. First I see that it has a 225 on it then I can tell that it is a ranger and it has a big graph at the console
Then as I'm about to pass it up I had to slow back down and do a double take. There is about a 7 foot gator on the front deck of this boat. Might be common around here but I ain't ever seen anything like that where I'm from.

bet that was a surprise lol. I think its alligator season in Alabama right now. but no way I'm putting one in a nice bass boat lol

Gator is very good to eat. You should try it while you down in LA.

[Dan21XRS]

That would cause a double take... Dan

Would it stink up the boat?

This is actually the last weekend of gator season.

What lure did he catch it on?

or more importantly was he using a braid to fluoro leader.

I've had gator before. I lived and worked with my uncle for a while after basic and air back in the 80's. One of his friends raised gators to sell. She always had gator tail and snook in the freezer. Both were very good.

well Twra has confirmed gators in SW Tennessee so give it a couple years and you’ll start seeing them up your way. Maybe get make wading the French Broad a bit more challenging

Theres a picture out there somewhere of one of the "Swamp People" wit a big gator on the front deck of a new Ranger.

At 7' it's still just a baby. I see them well over 10'on a regular basis

A new bait S.K. is coming out with, the flapping chicken !!

[richg99]

I've seen enough of them with my kayak in Texas. I leave them alone..they leave me alone.

[m.t.hands]

that is odd, why would somebody kill a baby gator when they grow some full size down there

[jigman51]

Don't see that every day.

[Casslaw]

Spend some more time in/around Eufaula and you will see more weird stuff than that! I started hunting up there about 22 years ago and have some seen some weird stuff!!

That Gator was probably encroaching on his fishing spot and didn't respond when hit in the head with a 2 oz jig plus a Giant Zara Spook with Razor Sharp Hooks couldn't inflict any pain.....So maybe it the AR15 was taken out of the Rod Locker?
