There is a small ditch or creek just to the left of the girls in this picture. During rainy times, this connects to canoe trails and the freshwater swimming and fishing areas. This is a likely place for small gators. With my stick and my bird dog, I could quickly take a small one. The 44 is too noisy. It's for two legged predators.



This is Lewis Creek. This is serious alligator country. My older daughter is crossing last Spring.
