Great job, thanks for sharing. And don't scare my fishing buddy!
Fun times for sure!
That gator sounds like he needs to meet Troy Landry :Rofl
I know some of them may get mad at me,but I wish he would. LolQuote:

Scary. All the gator sightings in Limestone are keeping me away. Haha

They can't seem find a balance on gators, there are either too few of them or far too many.
Same here. I know and believe when everyone says they won’t bother you. But I still can’t enjoy myself knowing they are there.Quote:

I’ve been fishing another place where there are probably some. But I haven’t saw them or heard anything about them.

Same here! I know I fish places where they are. It's just hard for me to let my guard down in areas where I know they are .Quote:

It’s the ones lurking under the water ready to rip me up that keeps me away.
Hahaha

Yep. I can just feel one coming up under my kayak and flipping me. Lol

while true that the risk is relatively low of being attacked, those larger gators are capable of easily "taking" a human or deer or any other large animal and while it hasnt happened that we know of so far, the more time goes by and the population grows, its just a matter of time till it does.....Quote:

These things do happen.
Speaking of limestone and gators!
Has anyone been by lately to see the water level at limestone and the clarity?
Was thinking about going for a little while in the AM but if it’s chocolate milk halfway up the pine trees I’m going to do something else. Too cold for that :)
I haven’t actually rode down there. But the creeks coming unde 565 never got real bad after this last rain. I’d think it’s good as far as that. Not sure about level.Quote:
