Local wildlife officials are searching for an alligator that bit a man directly in the face.

But, do they have a description? Does the 'gator have any distinguishing features? Tattoos? Inquiring minds want to know.

Back in 83 while fishing a Scott BASS tournament on the St Johns river, on the second day I had a guy in the boat with me who wanted to fish back up in Crescent Lake... His choice... Not mine...

Moving/fishing around the lake, we had to keep the trolling motor on high because of a few cotton mouths who kept following us trying to decide whether to get in the boat or not...

Then I hooked my spinner bait into some brush... Keeping a watchful eye on our nasty buddies, I maneuvered into the brush, reached down, unhooked my spinner bait from a log buried in the brush, and stomped the trolling mtr into reverse... It was then that the "log" I unhooked the spinner bait from let out a bellow...

We were out of Crescent Lake like a rocket shot...

Every puddle of water here in Florida is apt to have gator or two in it.

Hey, that would make for a good, schlocky SyFy Channel movie: Antifagator. You ain’t mean if you ain’t green.

Basically they already did that with tomatoes.

All it did was rile up the rest of the vegetables.<: <: <:

BTW it was the last movie I saw in a theatre that I didn’t get ‘paid’ to watch!!!

Don’t think it was the movie, just ‘gave up’ on going to theaters...
