jcglp,
Do you offer guided gator hunts? I'm new to LA would like to do it but I don't know much about it or what it involves equipment wise. I am pretty sure I could convince a few friends to go also. Have guns will travel...

Hahaha...not that hard to clean once you get the hang of it man.
Too many gator farms, that is what is dropping the price. I've got a friend I help out during the season, been doing it over 20 years, with the price where it is now we are thinking of taking the year off. Too much work for not enough money.

How do you kill them? I read here that you cant shoot them with a firearm......but could with one of those flare type guns.....in the head.

Cool. I would love to Gator hunt sometime....I tried last year but could not get the paperwork filled out because I didnt know how to get permission from land owner.
I wish we could take people guided hunts but the state will not allow that on the WMA. Has anyone heard anything on prices? 2 weeks ago they were saying 2 to 3 dollars a foot for under 6 foot. Alot of buyers are not taking anything under 7 foot. This might be a short season this year. I may keep a few and skin them myself. Its pretty easy. You blow them up with a air compressor and it pops the skin off.
We use 22mag.
I have always wanted to go. I know its not legal to do paid hunts, but if anyone would be willing to take me i would make it worth your while, gas, food, beer, ammo, whatever else.
I have been hunting deer, turkey and elk since i was 12 but i have always wanted to hunt gators and hogs

Same thing with a big snapper. (almost the same smell, too)
MY dad skins gators for a farm and this is what they do. His crew (6 or 7 people) skin each 100-120 4-5 ft gators from 6:30-12 o'clock. Thats reallllly fast, it would take a newbie about 2 days to do that.
I think you put the hose in the woohaa...I could be wrong.
