I gator per tag. To give rough idea what alligators are worth. I have filled 25 tags each year for the last three years. The gross sales of all twenty five alligators with right at 7 ft average each year was $1800, $2500, and $3000. So the prices have been improving. Alligator pretty much has to be bigger than 7ft to be worth anything.

So I'm curious about something. If you pull up your line and see that you have a fairly small gator on it, can you just cut the line, set it free, and not harvest the gator, if it's not worth much money and save your tags for bigger gators?
