"History Channel Swamp People (General Non-Surveying)
by Daniel S. McCabe , Ponchatoula, LA, Monday, August 16, 2010, 15:58 (15 days ago)
Some of you might remember, about a year ago, I posted something about doing some survey work for some alligator farmers that were being filmed for a TV series.
Well, I was watching "Pawn Stars" with the kids and saw the first commercial for the new series that begins this Sunday Night.
They are good people and live a couple of miles away from us.

I started watching it and have seen two episodes. Very cool.

Bruce Mitchel is a client that has become a friend of mine, as well as his brother in law Mike.
Them boys are strong.
Bruce keeps me well supplied in alligator meat.

I've seen the first two episodes.

It don't get more country than what I've seen so far. Good people for a fact.

Plenty of reruns, so you can schedule to see the whole series.

How bout the feller in the Louisiana swamp that got so lost he didn't know where he was lost from?

Or that Louisiana Sheriff that the alligator got?

I managed to catch about a minute before a commercial then 2 minutes after the commercial. Enough to see an alligator caught on a hook baited with a chicken shot 15 times with a rifle. Think I'll stick to Whale Wars.

The kid missed 14 times, so he was only shot once.

In all fairness, the alligator is is fighting harder and jerking around more than many fish you see caught on a line. He is a very fast-moving target. The bullet bounces of the back of the alligator as well. There is only a small sweet-spot behind the head as I recall, that you can hit and kill the 'gator. Missing that is like missing a silver-dollar that is thrown up in the air. (And you can't wait for it to land.)
