esshup, from what i have researched Gators do eat fish as a primary food for them. This one would lay his head on a limb of a sunken tree at the feeder. By his being there the cnbg would not feed as actively as they did without him being there. I am not seeing as many turtles, so i think he has been eating them also. They are another primary food for them. Since i have been having gators show up over the past 3 yrs with all of them being 4' or less i assumed they were year old gators but discover they only grow 8" per year so that makes them out to be 3 to 5 yrs old. That really surprised me. We use this pond for retriever training and for training young fisherman so can't have any gators. Keeping an eye out for gators is a new pastime at the pond.

Zep, no pics but the other day i caught a golden colored bg. It was a bright gold colored from head to tail.


Do not judge me by the politicians in my City, State or Federal Government.
