00:00Hey, right there, you see him right there?
00:04Right in the middle.
00:05Damn, that's a big alligator, too.
00:06Oh, what do you think he is?
00:07He's eight and a half, nine foot, there he went under, yep.
00:08Rods, get rods, ropes, hooks.
00:09Let's do it.
00:10Come on, on the jog.
00:11I know how long that ditch runs, and I know there's a lot of water that comes through
00:19there.
00:20What I didn't know was it had a big pool under the bridge.
00:23I didn't expect that much water.
00:26Here's how he got in here, right there.
00:28Here, we got yours right here, but it's not rigged up.
00:33I need a weight and some hooks.
00:37When the hook goes into the membrane, besides the scale, we use these small hooks.
00:42And I know we're not going to penetrate anything like an organ, it just can't go that deep.
00:47I just need to be able to get in that membrane so we can get him to the surface and get him
00:51roped.
00:52There's a problem with these lines and this concrete.
00:57What's going to happen is, whenever you set it, he's going to take off running through
01:02these, and this is going to get cut on that concrete a hundred times.
01:06It's going to happen.
01:07Well, I've been fishing my whole life, Sod, and I've been catching alligators for a while,
01:12so I've been pretty friendly with a fishing reel for sure.
01:15Oh, hey, that mud ain't fun.
01:18I'm going to get right here.
01:20Looks like there's a little drop off right after the mud, just so you know.
01:23Oh, hey, there he is.
01:24Look, look.
01:25Right beside where you threw.
01:26He's up.
01:27Come on, Eddie.
01:28Stick him.
01:29He didn't go away.
01:30He just went right down.
01:31Oh.
01:32You got your hook.
01:33Set the hook.
01:34Eddie, I need another hook in him, Eddie.
01:35Got him.
01:36All right.
01:37Just hold on to it.
01:38Hey, he's going for that post.
01:39Stand by.
01:40I cannot believe y'all did this so fast.
01:41Here's the problem.
01:42See your line?
01:43It's on the head.
01:44Yes, sir.
01:45I'm not going to be able to get this rope around the head.
01:46It ain't on the head no more.
01:47You lost him?
01:48I'm still on him.
01:49Get back on him.
01:50Aiden, come over here and get him.
01:51All I want to do is sit down.
01:52Yes, sir.
01:53Don't make him run.
01:54Any time you've got an alligator of any size, five, six foot, you want to get two lines.
01:55That's your security.
01:56Those big alligators, they're breaking one off.
01:57You better get two on them.
01:58Oh, there goes that shoe.
01:59Come on, Aiden.
02:00Need a little help here.
02:01Come on.
02:02Come on.
02:03Come on.
02:04Come on.
02:05Come on.
02:06Come on.
02:07Come on.
02:08Come on.
02:09Come on.
02:10Come on.
02:11Come on.
02:15Come on, Aiden.
02:16Come on, Aiden.
02:17You got this, man.
02:18Good.
02:19Good.
02:20Right there.
02:21Should be hitting him right about now.
02:22There you go.
02:23Got him.
02:24He's on him.
02:25All right, let me see what you got.
02:26Hold tight.
02:27All right.
02:28Hey, don't move.
02:29Don't move.
02:30I bet I don't get a chance at this.
02:31God dang it.
02:32Hey, straight up.
02:33I need his head.
02:34Go straight up.
02:35There's just a big silt of mud here.
02:36You can't even see your hand underwater.
02:37I can see it.
02:38You can see it?
02:39I can see it.
02:40I can see it.
02:41I can see it.
02:42I can see it.
02:43I can see it.
02:44I can see it.
02:45You can see the silhouette?
02:46I can see his silhouette.
02:47It's right there.
02:48Can you give me two more inches?
02:49I can get you.
02:50There you go.
02:51Hold on, man.
02:52Hold on.
02:53Hold on.
02:54Hold on.
02:55Hold on.
02:56Oh, hell no.
02:57I got a freaking stick.
02:58That's a bad alligator.
02:59Stay, y'all.
03:00Stay.
03:01Ah!
03:02I still got him.
03:03I still got him.
03:04He's all wrapped up in that line, though.
03:05Stand by.
03:06I could rope the head, or I could take the head.
03:07I could take the head.
03:08I can take the head.
03:09I can take the head.
03:10I can take the head.
03:11I can take the head.
03:12I can take the head.
03:13Or I could take the tail, but I got to get it.
03:16If I want to take the tail, I got to get it way up, which means I got to watch the alligator
03:19coming around me.
03:22I got a tail catch.
03:23It's this.
03:24Go.
03:25Get on the rope.
03:26I can't walk in this with all this mud on my feet.
03:29I'm going to cut the fishing lines.
03:30Hold the rope.
03:31I got it.
03:32I got it.
03:33Yeah.
03:34It's slick.
03:35It ain't clawing.
03:36I need another rope.
03:37You got another rope, Eddie?
03:38Yes, sir.
03:39It's right up here.
03:40You got this, Aiden?
03:41Where?
03:42Where's the other rope?
03:43Yes, sir.
03:44Hopefully I don't fall going up this thing.
03:48You shouldn't have to be a cowboy.
03:49Throw that cement on his head.
03:51Good thing I've been practicing my rope.
03:52Come on, man.
03:54It's rolling.
04:00Rope him.
04:05All right, set it.
04:06Bottom jaw.
04:07Easy.
04:08All right, all right.
04:12All right.
04:13All right.
04:14All right.
04:15All right.
04:16All right.
04:17All right.
04:18All right.
04:19All right.
04:20All right.
04:21All right.
04:22All right.
04:23All right.
04:24All right.
04:25All right.
04:26All right.
04:27All right.
04:28All right.
04:29All right.
04:30All right.
04:31All right.
04:32All right.
04:33All right.
04:34All right.
04:35All right.
04:36All right.
04:37All right.
04:38All right.
04:39All right.
04:40All right.
