My buddy and I drew two alligator tags at the J.D. Murphree WMA in September. This is a good thing, but presents a few challenges for two guys from west Texas. We have to have a boat to access the hunt area and this boat must have a range of 20 miles and we must be able to get it over levies. At this point, we have no boat. I have not begun looking into getting a boat for this 24 hour hunt, but if any of you are familiar with this area/hunt and have any suggestions, I'd welcome them.
If any of you have shot an alligator with a bow, would you please send me a gear list for arrow/line/leader/float etc.
We have put in for Texas draw hunts for nearly 20 years and never gotten anything. As "luck" would have it, this alligator hunt is 3 days after we get back from a week and a half in South Africa. This $80 tag has the potential to get really expensive when my wife is finished buying furniture to balance the scales of fun....
thanks for any insight you may have.
