My brothers 11'1" Gator.(The top one)

I love fried gator. what did you shoot them with?

very nice

hell yeah

Wow, look at the jowls on that one. Would not like to find that in my pond!

Fried gator tail

Good lord - those are huge!

TxP

did u hook them then use the bang stick or did u hunt from the bank? hunt at night?

Maggie, what is a bang stick?

its a pole w/ a modified end to hold like a 45 long colt shell & when they "bang" it on the gators skull it shoots off the bullet, killing the gator

Those are good size gators!!! Where did y'all get 'em?

We had a guy on our lease last year that brought some gator "jaw" meat for a cookout. Absolutely outstanding. It is considered the filet mignon of gator meat and at $18/lb I see why! Fries up much more tender than the tail meat. If you get a chance, try some out....

Nice 'gator! Let loose with the story. We want the details!

that is awesome!

awesome! where ya at?

Nice gators, that's gotta be fun!

yup Rw basically the same thing...most have it where they can use various bullet types

I used to alligator hunt for a living, before the prices dropped back in the early 90's. We would use a line, and shoot them with a .22lr.

Awesome I have always wanted to do that!

We shot them in Port O Near Seadrift . It was the best hunt I have ever been on Lots of gators down there . Maggie we shot are gators with pistols after we caught them on hooks tied to the bank . We hunted with Capt. James Cunningham and are going back this sept. to get smaller gators that taste better. The big ones are not very good to eat but are tons of fun to hunt! DPD25 you are right about the jowls they are the best part to eat . From what I hear most of the time thats what your eating in restaurants not the tails . Im trying to find a good picture of mine to post and will do so asap ! If anybody is interested in a hunt send me a pm and I will give you contact info for James !

looks like fun, congrats!

Leg quarters 6" above the water from a thin cable with a steel treble hook. A twently two round later and you've got tail for the grill. Yeah it's good fried, but it's also hard to beat grilled tail steaks.

Restaurants use back mostly I hear.

I have wanted to go gator hunting, and really want to go after seeing the pics!
