Good idea about the treble hook and snagging
We've caught the biggest gators by snagging
Bought the biggest treble hooks we could find a couple years ago & the gators would straighten the hooks, Buy the big hooks & weld them together. When trying to snag make sure you don't get caught up in the line. They will pull a 15' boat around awhile before tiring.

Hang em high so you reduce the chance of catching a little one. WE used sun-baked, expired leg quarters, prepare to have to wear that stink off.

This is what we do. Teal hunts down here in SE TX are over by 0900 for the most part if your spot is worth a frick. Rest of the day= nap, fish, watch football, and go catch gators.

Great I will do the teal/morning and gator/evening.
Weapon of choice?

If you don't have your limit 30 minutes into shooting time you probably won't get it here

True. It's usually the first 30 or so here too and if you don't have limits we might stretch it to then, but it's rare.

This is more my style.

Kill shot then treble hook to snag from sinking

Yes, this. But damn I love running gator traps. Never know what kind of beast you liable to pull up.

Get you a young boy, named after a man of the cloth, tie a rope around his waist, throw him in the swamp.
Posted on 8/4/14 at 2:25 pm to Polar Pop
Don't think you suppose to kill at night

Damn thanks for the heads up, had no idea. Posted on 8/4/14 at 2:30 pm to Polar Pop
It would be real easy to fill the tags at night
