I have taken smaller, but I try and take big ones when they are in the area..On a ten footer you will get 40# of really good meat and 60-70# of meat for sausage, the really good meat is good for frying, real tender and not tough..The other meat is only good for sausage, it is real tough fried..

I think that gator in the first pic needed to brush his teeth, i see some algie growing there[8D] very nice pics, that has to be fun
