Thought maybe we ought to start a thread of tips for folks doing the gator thing this year for the first time. I'll start it and add to it as I try to remember ( old age ) things that might help. Folks not wanting to break their backs or that might get the one thats a bit too heavy to lift, some ole timers in La. use to use rope but other things might work also, they tied the ropes (2 - 3 ) along their cage on the side and would slip the rope around the gator's underside, then stand up on the cage floor and heave and just rolled the gator over the side. They also put like a t-handle on the rope with a hole thru the center , pull the rope thru the center and then thru a hole next to that one, now you can take up any slack needed to get a smaller or larger rope and the handle makes it alot easier to pull. Thats my tip of the day. I'm sure others have some ideas and tips to help make folks hunt alot better. Later Cajun
