Well they dumped a ton of them in the DELTA back in the early 1980's!
If the South should lose, it means that the history of the heroic struggle will be written by the enemy, that our youth will be trained by Northern school teachers, will be impressed by all of the influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors and our maimed veterans as fit subjects for derision.

The 13'9 1200 pound gator was caught in the same place as the 13'4 1300 pound gator was caught last year.  That is a bayou right below Millwood damn.  I guarantee you there are bigger gators out there.  I've seen one on Millwood that looks 15 if it is an inch.  On Little River above Millwood there is one that some people swear is at least 16.

I'm convinced that on average the biggest gators in the world are right there.  They have not been hunted and unlike most of the country around here, they have always been there.  They were never hunted out, so there are old gators there as well.  And since they continue to grow, the older they are, the bigger they are.

Maybe it's good for wildlife somehow but I would be fine if we didn't have gators in Arkansas at all!

A friend of mine down for a competition coon hunt from Michigan lost a good Bluetick in Millwood. Happened several years ago on a hunt out of Hope, Ar.

I bet that head was super nice. I'd love to have one but I would rather there were NO gators in Arkansas.

I learned a trick a long time ago to cleaning them thangs.
Cut a tiny hole underneath his chin and stick an air hose in the hole, make sure it seals around the nozzle.
Then blow that sonofabitch up like an inner tube, and it separates all the skin from the body. Then you just carve the skin off.

The best meat is in the cheeks.

Thats a tree shaker for sure!

Filled all my tags (25), they ranged from 9-11 foots.

Not many old ones left though

Works on deer, too.

Quote from: GA reddiehog on April 16, 2024, 07:44:38 pmPitching over hyped and hitting nonexistent is going to make for several loses here on out. Maybe it will not be as bad as the BB team. Lack of hitting has been a problem for many moons.

Deer, coyote, fox, you name it... they blow up like a party balloon.

Oh crap, you could sell tickets to watch that shrimp! As long as the beer was flowing, of course.

I do that from lower legs, and then go in at the neck too.  Then cut off all four feet, split em down the belly, put a golf ball under skin behind neck, wrap a rope around it and then pull the hide off with a crank winch.
