who is the guy who was caught killing a 13' gator in the Eufaula Refuge opening weekend?

[bfriendly]

I wonder if they caught it on a piece of rope and a hook tied to a tree limb with a chunk of chicken on it?

Is that illegal? My boh Troy showed me that way. I prefer casting a snatch hook, but I like pulling up them tone lines and seeing what’s down there.

It wasn't me but I have seen some big ones in there while i was bream fishing in the creek just east of Lake Point.

Copied from regs (no baiting and no open water shooting must be restrained first);

Legal Methods
Hunters may use hand-held ropes or snares, snatch hooks, harpoons, gigs or arrows with a restraining line attached. Legal alligators must be dispatched immediately upon capture by using a handgun or bangstick, or by severing the spinal cord with a sharp implement.

Legal Hours
Alligators may be hunted during the day or at night.
