Default Large Alligator English Bayou MossBluff/LC

I got this in a text a month or so ago but got the whole story later...this sucker has been swimmin on the calc river for a long time...




Sulphur, La. —
This big gator is the largest alligator caught in Louisiana so far this alligator season. It was caught by Rodney Duhon, of Sulphur, on Saturday, September 5, with the help of his sons, Dr. David M. Duhon, D.C. and Jean-Paul Duhon and their children, Keegan M. Duhon, Kendall K. Duhon and Trey Duhon. The gator officially measured 13 feet and 5 inches and weighed around 700 pounds. Duhon caught the gator at his home on English Bayou, 2939 Old Town Road. The gator has been in the bayou for years and recently has been eating more chickens than usual. The gator took several gunshots to the head without stopping until Benjamin Richard of the Gray Estate shot it in the eye. He then tagged the gator. Experts notified said the gator was probably about 60 to 65 years old. The Duhons would like to thank David Richard of the Gray Estate for his assistance. The gator is pictured with Duhon and one of his grandchildren. Youtube has several videos of the hunt and more information at bacdoc2020.

I was out fishing in that same area a few days after the story was reported.

While fishing, we saw a man and women running there "lines". Later we heard one shot from a 22 rifle.

Wonder if that was the same person?

The newspaper article indicated that the gator attempted to grab the Duhon's dog but only got a mouth full of hair and the dog got away.

Either way that joker is big.
Pair of alligator boots for everybody and a alligator fry for along time coming.
