RE: Alligator hunting,and set-ups..
I haven't run into any gators up here in IL, but...
I made a call to somebody I know that's done it before.
Hopefully they'll find their way over here to lend you a hand.
Ido know youneed to take some pretty serious precautions before boating them, like severing their spinal cord, and making scrabled eggs of their brains, just to make sure you're able to go fishing again with all of your limbs intact.
