Dunno about down there. My cousin gets permits every year in north central Florida. He always says worst part of the gator hunt is skinning them. He says they have a stink to them that u wont forget.

I suppose ya got your reasons to limit yourself to that area, it's sure not prime.

Just skin one off the side of 41 on the way there and call it good. (jk?)

One thing to keep in mind is, it's been my experience that after opening week it gets really hard to get close enough to one to get him. They just get really spooky, they go under when you get within a 100 yards.
Any other time of the year you'd be kickin' the same gator outta your way.

Obviously, the more permits a unit has the better the odds of getting drawn.
You do get to request multiple units and list them in preference order.

I've never not been drawn, but not necessarily gotten my 1st choice unit.


That's good info Jeff and thanks.

I really have no reason. That's the area I'm going to live and I've found hunting the areas close to home usually has better success rates. I'd go wherever I had to in the state.

Nearest place I know of that you might get into the game would be US41 west and north of the highway which is the Big Cypress Preserve (read: hunt with a permit). Wild card in the mix is the Seminole Res lands (Miccosukee Reservation) in the same region, I don't know how they roll with the gator season thing. West of Ft. Lauderdale via I75.


Thanks Dan.

I'm gonna stop by your place on the drive down. Please ready the spare bedroom. Or a tent.


Thanks,

So what do people do with an alligator? (Besides molest them, apparently)

I know on the tv shows, they sell them but if you just have one tag, do you butcher them and eat them like a deer?

The tail meat is very good if it's fresh, a bit fishy tasting if it's not, the rest I'm not sure of. The hide obviously makes very distinctive leather.
