      Yeah, that gator was on my boat twice that one day. Once up the creek, once down.Just looking for food

      I've had some that swim with my boat, looking to steal fish. I smack those slackers on the snout. Everyone should work for their dinner. Water bound panhandlers ...more are no exception...

      That is the problem, you never know if someone else has been feeding them. If they don't move away from you, that is a problem.

      Very true, Shawn. The only issue I've had is lil 6 footer climbing on the back of my boat near the golf course. I think the golfers toss them food while putting ...more the green. A little whack on the nose with my rod & it backed off. It was just lookin for a snack I suppose

      They wont hurt you, just don't feed 'em. Give them some space and they will stay away from you.

      Well I am not too keen on them myself which is why my husband told me when he got home so they could stay fishing all day. Smart man.
