I was standing up, and could see the gator under both the front and the back of the boat at the same time. My guess would be about '10'. I think it might have been an old one, for most of its face was white. If you are talking about the 1 in Possum, it became a nuisance. She had no fear of humans. I know back around '98 she was about 8' long then, when she would sun herself on the bank by the RVs, you could actually walk up to her and touch her, if you had the nerve. I believe it was Danny Frazier's son, Devin and some other people in the RV park moved her to the back of Little Caney north of the bridge. She was run over on 154 trying to get back to Possum.

The gator went under just before it got to the bank, grabbed a big ole turtle and started chomping away....the other guys got the heck out of there and I had the whole area to myself! It was awesome. Whether you think you can or you can't, you are probably right.

That's hilarious. Maybe it's because I was born on Caddo and have lived in East Texas all my life, but I realize there are gators in every lake I fish. I've seen them in almost every one of them. I don't bother them and they don't bother me.

Males can get up to 15 feet long, females can 'only' get up to 10 feet long.
