on day 19 of the 30-day alligator season
cuddlers across the swamp are forced to
find new areas to take down elusive bull
Gators and in Pierre part troy landry
has called his Armada together to
formulate a plan for the day all right
boys
don't pay attention once in your lives
listen to your daddy got a lot of tags
left we got our work cut out for us
today we got more tags than I'm
comfortable with maybe we should have a
competition well we could see who can
catch the biggest alligator
what y'all think I'm trying to Punk the
boys up to see who can catch the biggest
alligator and its really to make them
hustle
that's all I'm doing that for I'm not
worried about who catches the biggest
one but I'm telling them that sure they
can hustle a little bit y'all ready
whoever catches the biggest alligator
today there's gonna be my favorite son
and whoever comes in with the smaller
alligators on the arm I will
[Laughter]
of Bell River they're here and he's been
Cajun sniper chase Landry is in his
element
hunting the remote Gator sanctuary for a
competition winning ball
got it
I hit him solid when I'm out there
hunting alligators by myself it always
brings me back to when I was a young
child at our camp in the spillway my dad
would give us a little boat and just let
us run free surly and we already got two
villains in the boat but we could
explore we could get into whatever we
want I learned who I was out there
a lot of big either get us back here I
wasn't expecting the scenes quite this
minute back here
nice one time to write you can cream
good okay's hated what God is your
oneness
[Music]
for sure
I hate it I don't think I killed my
treble hook get something you're ready
right here
I got it good come on baby look at look
at you yeah happy
whoa whoa yeah baby oh my God look at
the head on that sucker whoa there's
absolutely nothing like oh my goodness
this is like a bullet hole from the big
rifle to imagine life without adventures
like this or stories like this and the
feelings you get from that
Navin three I don't know what else can
pump adrenaline in your body like your
hook into big alligator put a treble
hook and you feel that power we nice for
is the bed with Jacob
you know I'd end up beating him that's
just icing on the cake this is what it's
all about right here we got it done
nothing like it do on Grand Lake
Jacob landry and his deckhand dawn are
on the mission to bag a bigger Gator the
chase we fishing Grand Lake and there's
tons and tons of big alligators out here
so we have a pretty good chance of
coming out on top you know we can't lose
this we got to put the biggest in the
moat yeah we got here
we got 1d look here I don't tell me that
you notice many Gators in Grand Lake the
only downfall to it is there's no small
trees to tie to to act like shock
absorbers to absorb some of that fight
from their big boobs you're tying two
big solid cypress trees and that's
really about the worst tree you can tie
to because there's no flexibility in it
oh I hate that man and when you catch a
big bull alligator he's gonna better use
that tree as leverage and brigde line is
in the best spot but we don't have no
good trees to talk to it I got an idea
oh Lord it only gets dangerous when you
see that Don's mind is constantly
working and thinking of ways you know we
can do things differently and you know
he gives me ideas here and there and
sometimes we go with it sometimes we
don't there you go with that bag again
man saved our ass in the orange bag I
got everything from a damn toothbrush to
a hammer channellock some copper wire
zip ties black tape duct tape superglue
does anything it might get me through
the day
yeah hell you got now you don't like
this I'm telling you I got thinking
about I said I need something to get
some give to it like a cup of bungee
cord you know something to strap
something down with then we gonna act
like a shockers over like winning good
willing limbs what I'm hoping is this
the bungee cord will wear him out enough
to where he's gonna lose enough power
he won't build a break the line you
think that's gonna hold a big alligator
I'm thinking it'll work you know I have
my doubts because an alligator Daz that
big that's strong to pop that 1,200
pound line should better pop that bungee
cord like nothing
you ready bungee but I'm willing to try
anything once
welcome cryin to me of that big one
buses that I think it'll work we shall
see
Jacob and Donna working fast after
sitting a few shock absorber lines they
double back to see if the bungee cord
idea is working I spell that
Jacob is against the idea of it you know
he bitched all the time I put everyone
out but lo and behold here we're pulling
up through here and I look and sure
enough the shock it was over has someone
on it we got one on the bungee cords
looking Gigot came it stretch the bungee
cord out working it's working oh lordy
Haley we got a good known in
[Applause]
we got them something quick watch your
hand watch it watch it hurry hurry
[Music]
this one don't get they're behaving
that's what I'm telling my big boy not
too damn bad
that's a good one so all in all we have
caught some monster Gator I'm telling my
cowboy so I think it's about time for
Jacob took mid and I'm pretty much just
a damn genius yes sir I gotta hand it to
you I don't like to hand it to you often
but I can hand it to you this time gotta
give you credit hell yeah I'm a gift on
his sense of glory and let him you know
take the claim of deathball record
alligator and it was time to go in I
have to show that to Mole Man
yeah your daddy see that here for in the
hell is that after a long day out on the
Bayou back at Duffy's you like one cool
Troy checks in with his boys to crown a
winner in the competition for biggest
Gator gone up but going for the
alligators Hey look at that
treble hook you man Otto in into the
tent and pulled you around said I heard
