I had a friend to tell me this morning that there is a alligator hanging out close to his boat dock, has anyone else seen any alligators in Conway lately
there is at least one gator in the lake, i have seen pics and video of a gator on conway!
And why is he still breathing???
Lots of gators on Conway. They have been sighted all over the lake, especially in the last year. There may be evidence that they are reproducing. They aren't hurting anybody. I say leave em be.
More gators, maybe fewer commorants. DP

Call Troy and Elizabeth, shootum Elizabeth shootum.
Might make for some good eatin!
I will try to post the video of the gator seen Friday. He was 6'long.
Doubt that you can just go out and shoot a gator without some repercussions from AGFC. Is it against the law to kill a gator? I know some places have a drawing for a permit to kill one. Nimrod got drawn a couple of years ago and actually killed one. Just curious. Matt, can you help with these questions?
It is illegal to shoot un-permitted out of season gators.Quote:

Joe, don't look to close. The gators might be closer than you think. They're not hurtin anything by a few beavers and rats
Yep, I haven't heard of them eating any trucks yet. :biggrin

Sometimes you will be right beside them before you see them. Saw this one off the river right before it came up.
Know any GOOD attorney's? DPQuote:

This one I saw on lake Erling while crappie fishing, I think was big enough to eat a beaver.Attachment 206143
I ran up on one on lake Conway bout two months ago. was up fishing in the log jams about 100 yards south of Adams lake. it was laying on the logs sunning. there was a log blocking me from going down the bank and I was trolling around it or I would have run up on top of it. he finally hit the water and it sounded like an explosion. scared me to death. had not previously known there were gators in the lake. been keeping my feet in the boat :yikes
