Becoming an Alligator Trapper: Exciting Opportunity for Tiffiny and her Husband

Do you trap them and move them somewhere else or trap and then harvest them?

@DJ Because of the healthy alligator population in Florida and because relocated alligators typically return to their home area, nuisance alligators are harvested.

That's sweet! You guys catch em on baited lines or are there bona-fide gator traps? As a semi retired fur trapper all sorts of ideas and methods jump to mind, like oversized conibears, snares, big no. 5 footholds on drowner rigs. Sounds alot like fun!

@Appalachian Several options: Baited lines with buoys, air bow, run and harpoon, fan-cast and hook.

@Tiffiny Harpooning one sounds awesome!

Do you get to keep the gator? If so that would be awesome

That’s too cool! Send me some meat I’ve always wanted to try 🤪😂
