My son, Garrett,...back in 2017...helping Dad with nuisance beaver work. Even moving a gator along that thought he was a beaver.



And today...helping Dad scout a new nuisance beaver site..


Good times!

Nice catches

Stout lookin kid there, probably some darn good help, some nice pictures.

Y'all got beard growth genetics like Yukon Cornelius, gotta love it, thanks for sharing!

Nice. But gators and I don't get along. I think they're afraid of me.

Ol boy probably operate a tater rake like a mexican track hoe! Why can't i ever find decent help, all mine are puny and toothless with far away look in their eyes, lol.

cool pic, do the gators eat a lot of your beaver catches

No...never.

In nearly 48 years trapping, I've had 1 coon (that was in a dp) on a small creek near a river get pulled out by a gator.

Great pics Swamp! It’s cool to teach and watch them pick up on it and be successful as well.

Times to Remember

Would that be a good eating sized Gator?

Hope everything is going good with you swamp wolf. I've been quiet for a while but getting back in the game. I'm still smokin beavers with them 750s I got from you several years ago. My boys enjoy trapping with me as well.

Good to pass on the torch. He obviously has a good teacher.
Trapping and other outdoor activities probably saved me from a life of trouble.
I was a punk kid that became interested in the outdoors. God used the glory of his creation to give purpose.
I was headed down the wrong path. Today with electronics and so many artificial distraction its hard for young peaple to get a grasp on reality without a mentor.
Good work dad.

I don't think any sized gator is fit to eat, lol. Tough chewy mess.

Good times and memories Swamp. Gators make some decent oil if done right.
