Do you rig those big ole lizards hooked through the snout? Is it legal to fish them live down there? I was thinking, just nose hook one up on a float, and let him roam around a bit.....might head for the weeds, but it shouldn't be much problem keeping him in the open......right?

Thanks Stav for posting those pics.We went down to shoot some film with Kieth Warren outdoors me & Matt took the kids down & let them hunt this time we fished.Not that many bass this time of year but lots of crappie up to 18'.I caught one in April down there last year that was 19-7oz i'm getting it mounted.One of Bowtech dealers owns the place one of the lakes is as big as Dexter give or take & full of those gators some over 100 years old.Would have posted sooner been out working on a crab boat for a friend.Later
