Fairly certain if you ask around town when you arrive they will tell you who to get in touch with. Or where to go. Something like that.

Yeah, be careful with that.

I've alway wondered why they catch them alive, is that the only way to collect the bounty ?
Me, I'd do the same thing they do with gaters, 410 into the head, dead snake, $$ in the pocket.

Unless you have access to a flats boat, bass boat, Swamp Buggy, airboat, etc you are wasting your time. The guys that hunt them for money will contract out their boat, Swamp Buggy, whatever to you for half a day for $375 to $500. And they will take you everywhere looking for them.. except where they hunt them. Lol.
Now, If you have a friend in the area with a boat or Swamp Buggy, it's a whole different story.

If they are this huge threat to the ecosystem, I cannot understand why they don't just want people to shoot as many of them as they can.

Depends on who you're talking to. Guns are dangerous. You'll shoot your eye out.  Hell, I got suspended off a public Neighborhood Forum because I told a lady to get a CO2 BB gun for ~ $45 total and blast all the iguanas off her property, when she was paying a "licensed" exterminator stupid money to get rid of them. I don't go on that board anymore. Pearls Before Swine, as they say.

Killa,
If you are looking for a free python expedition you may get lucky but it will involve just that. Luck.
If nobody responds on here I would PM JeffA. He is a snake aficionado and very familiar with that AOR.
You could of course rent a boat and hope for the best.
