Well we headed to SC on 09-09-22 for the season opener on 09-10-22 after hunting 3 days without success I reached out on sc alligator hunting on FB and Phil from Rizzs outdoors reached out to me offered guidance and offered to take us to and area he believed that we would have success at and wasn't looking to make money off us he was trying to help us PA boys harvest our 1st alligators. The 1st night at Russ's spot my buddy harvested a 5 footer alligator and then 3rd night at the spot I harvested a 7.5 footer alligator. Anyone wanting to go on an alligator hunt, bow fish trip or catfishing trip as they gave big catfish down there I highly recommend Rizz Outdoors check him out on Facebook as he is a 1st class guy.
