I managed to talk a good friend of mine into going this morning. I think I scared him talking about the gator I came across the other day while chasing these swamp chickens around
We had this one come in like a lightning bolt! He jumped through the cane patch and gobbled at us about 15yds away!! He weighed in at 17lbs. His beard measured 10'' on the dot, and his spurs were 1 1/8'' a piece.
p.s. this is the guy I go get the clams with
