big bill what's up hey buddy you found us a boat yeah you won in there but we got one whoa nice
air board huh you ran it ladies running good yeah yeah we out there in the chamber going brick on
we know we've been out there stranded before what's the game plan i'm thinking at this time
of the year alligators are making nests right i think if we can get in here and ride around and
find some nests yeah we can catch pythons yeah baby alligator to a pipe down is a easy meal and
when they find one there's usually dozens of them right there that's a good idea troy wants to go
look for alligator nests because of the hatchlings there he thinks the pythons are going to go after
the hatchlings i think his theory is pretty legit the hatchlings are five six inches long and python
can eat a dozen of them in one sitting and they're usually grouped together i think it makes sense
yeah well we're wasting time sitting here let's go let's go baby let it go you ready brother
bill says he knows why they got a lot of nests but they're more in the marsh
you can't drive a truck or bug it to him so he's got a friend that
got an airboat and we're going to go out there and find alabama let's do it baby
i think it opens up out here yeah go right in there
mama alligators like to get in shallow areas to make their nests to protect her babies from a
big meal because a big meal alligator will eat little ones so we're making our way to
more sawgrass and cattails where we have a better chance to catch some looks like a trail right here
hey i think we might be where we need to be it opens up in front of me alligators will usually
nest in cattails and they take all the cattails and mound them up and put their eggs in there and
let them incubate we got to look for the higher ground where the nests are gonna be
whoa look at here boy look at this
i'll get a nest look at here that's what we've been looking for right there
oh yeah buddy yeah and look oh look at here trace hell yeah hey that's what those snakes
are after i bet you huh bill one big snake you need half of the nest maybe almost all of them
and look they had at least 20 or 30 eggs in that nest and what we find two alligators yeah it could
be that some snakes got him and maybe the mama can protect him and shave him but i promise you them
damn snake you're gonna wind up eating almost the whole net yeah son yeah i don't even hear
oh snake snake over here what nick oh yeah right now look good dude right by that nest
oh he goes there he goes watch him watch him watch him there he goes brother get him oh yeah
that's a big one
watch him change watch him don't let him get away y'all get his attention
watching bill watch him look at him he's watching me that guy wants me
now he's looking at me and he know i got his tail oh lordy
yeah grab the tail pit got it rubbed it tail i got it he went after himself he don't know he's
just striking he don't know what the hell he's striking at yeah he's some kind of pissed off
okay watch him chick get get to your right chase they can follow you they come look at
you there you go oh god yeah he's in that strike mode so lord jesus help me you gotta
catch him troy that's your chance right there get him you got it yeah good catch
i'm getting thrown for you
good eagle guys chase michael cats good grind i guarantee you by every nest you most probably got
a snake waiting yeah for the chance when the mama lets her guard down they're gonna go in there and
eat them a little hacker yeah it was at python at least 11 or 12 foot python 10 feet from the nest
and she knew they had two little baby alligators left on that nest and she wasn't leaving until she
got them it's terrible them pythons don't belong out here they're putting everything out of whack
well we're gonna hunt bill we're gonna keep going this try to find a couple more yeah where do you
want to go or maybe we should split up the cover more ground yeah good idea so i think i'm gonna
go back to the air boat and just go a little further down all right well we'll we'll hit this
where that rainbow's coming down that's where the pot of gold is at the end of the rainbow alright
i'm gonna go to the beginning of the rainbow okay that spread out yeah let's just go do that
and meet back in a couple hours we want to cover some more ground so we sent troy in one direction
and chase and i we're gonna stay in this area and see if we can find a nest and more pythons
oh snake snake oh right here oh yeah you got him oh yeah look at this
watch him big bill well he's pissed off isn't he
he's trying to get away quick
you don't want to come up oh right there yep all right i'm gonna try and get him
come on see how quick he turned oh what he's not playing oh boy i tried to get my face
worried about him striking get him oh good job big bear good job i got it had a baby
oh good god hey what is that alligator hurry you got him bro
before i could even tie the dang bag something out the corner of my eye caught my attention
and thank god it did it was the mama alligator and she was coming in hot big bill and i were
both high stepping it out of there my god i had to be a female gardener nest over there
gotta be she got a nest in here my hands are shaking god man we lucky let's leave her be
meanwhile troy is closing in on another alligator nest all right
we split up to cover a little more ground the chances of finding something
if you split up a lot better but if you catch a big one you need help
i mean i can catch a eight or nine foot ten foot snake by myself but if i come across a
fifteen foot snake that might weigh between two and three hundred pounds you need help
oh tell me the grass movements next next day baby god thank god it's not a real real big one
dude i was lucky to see this thing look at how these hodge in that grass
come on come on
i gotta get to that tail hey oh he's mad
thank you jesus where's my help when i need her this thing is wearing me out he's not a giant
but man that thing was fast he's young just the opposite of me them young snakes are the fastest
and i think the most aggressive you just it takes a while to wear them down that's what we're
catching the most of around these alligator nests because the hatchling is easy for them to eat
although troy's capture gave him a run for his money it allows the gators in the area to breathe
a little easier this thing gets your blood pumping butter and if this don't get you nervous nothing
will i rather fish off a 12 foot alligator instead of a seven or eight foot one of these things
you
