00:00:15As water levels plummet across the bayou...
00:00:18Pete, pull the flies down. There's a big log.
00:00:21When the water fluctuates, you just don't know it.
00:00:23The last few days, it's been crazy.
00:00:25Come on. Ooh, hit him up.
00:00:27One team seeks revenge.
00:00:29Come on.
00:00:30I just want to catch this big gator.
00:00:32He is huge. He's big. We got to get him.
00:00:35Damn.
00:00:35While another receives a golden opportunity.
00:00:38You got to have these five tags for the next couple days.
00:00:41That's a little honey at the end of this if y'all like something sweet.
00:00:44Fill five tags to get 15.
00:00:46Man, come on, man. That's a win-win situation.
00:00:50A young hunter tries to prove she's ready to stand on her own.
00:00:54I haven't done it before,
00:00:55so it's just remembering what Dad has taught me in the past.
00:00:59As the king of the swamp calls in help from an unlikely source...
00:01:04Mom, this is a nice one. Come shoot him.
00:01:06Come shoot, Mom.
00:01:13One pair comes face to face with a legend.
00:01:15Right here, look.
00:01:17I got one thing on my mind.
00:01:19A monster gator named Methuselah.
00:01:21Right here, right here, right here. Look, look, look, look, look.
00:01:23Get him, get him, get him, get him, get him.
00:01:26With only five days left and their seasons hanging in the balance...
00:01:30Okay, Mom, I'm precious.
00:01:32...the swampers put it all on the line.
00:01:35Hell yeah.
00:01:36Woo!
00:01:37Bring him up!
00:01:39Let's go!
00:01:40He's a popular!
00:01:47He's a popular!
00:01:49Run these back roads out of your life
00:01:51All the pain through the struggle and the strife
00:01:54Now there's just one thing you got left to do
00:01:57Light a mass, let it burn and break on two
00:02:06Like a world once more and you're out of control
00:02:11Like a loaded pistol, like a raging storm
00:02:15You got thunder in your veins
00:02:17You won't stop till your dying day comes your way
00:02:33It's nearly 4 p.m. in southern Louisiana
00:02:39And in Bayou Grenouille
00:02:42Veteran hunter Bruce Mitchell and his deckhand handle Rebeck
00:02:46are wrapping up a frustrating day
00:02:48catching small gators in low water
00:02:52I mean, every gator we got to is just all tangled up.
00:02:55We just keep going slower and slower.
00:02:57It keeps getting hotter.
00:02:59Every gator's under every log.
00:03:02Well, today, we're not doing that good.
00:03:04We're not catching because the water's so low over here.
00:03:06When it's too low, they can't get to the bank where the,
00:03:10you know, you hang on your lines.
00:03:13And what we are catching is smaller.
00:03:25Line's down.
00:03:26What you got, Anna?
00:03:28It's down.
00:03:29You see it?
00:03:29Line down?
00:03:30Good.
00:03:31Miss Bruce, it's moving.
00:03:32Oh, I see the water.
00:03:33It's moving. You see it?
00:03:34Look at the water.
00:03:34Look at it.
00:03:34That's a big gator.
00:03:35I can tell the way the water's moving.
00:03:36You think so?
00:03:38Take your time.
00:03:39Take your time.
00:03:40Don't get in no hurry.
00:03:41I see the line.
00:03:42Grab it.
00:03:42Be careful.
00:03:52You see him?
00:03:54No.
00:03:54He was moving earlier.
00:03:56Oh, it's tight.
00:03:58Tight as could be.
00:04:00Mr. Bruce, I can't get the line up anymore.
00:04:02If he starts to pull you up, you let it go.
00:04:04Do not hold the line.
00:04:05I know.
00:04:05I can't get it up is what I'm saying.
00:04:07I know.
00:04:07He's tight.
00:04:12He won't come out the bottom.
00:04:14No, I got it.
00:04:14I got it.
00:04:15Be still. Be still.
00:04:15He's gonna pop that line.
00:04:16Here, I'm gonna come down there.
00:04:17I'm gonna come down there.
00:04:18I don't wanna fall in.
00:04:20Come on. Get him up.
00:04:21I can't get him.
00:04:23He keeps hitting the boat.
00:04:25Come on.
00:04:26Get him up.
00:04:30Come on.
00:04:32Come on.
00:04:38It's loose.
00:04:41He got off.
00:04:43Damn.
00:04:44Bruce and Anna have yet to catch a beast over 12 feet this season.
00:04:49And with pride and dollars on the line, this is their chance to finally bag a trophy.
00:04:56Oh.
00:04:57Big gator.
00:04:58I can feel him.
00:04:59Yeah, I know.
00:05:00Did you hear him hitting the boat?
00:05:01Yeah.
00:05:01He knew what he was doing.
00:05:02Just staying out of the boat so he could just keep pulling.
00:05:05Ain't nothing you can do about it.
00:05:07All we're gonna do is reset.
00:05:09It's just heartbreaking when a gator gets off your line, especially a big one.
00:05:12So me and Mr. Bruce decide, like, this is it.
00:05:15We gotta get him.
00:05:16And we're gonna go set a bunch of lines and come back tomorrow and get this sucker.
00:05:20We're gonna catch him.
00:05:21I hope so.
00:05:22Oh, we're gonna get him.
00:05:23Ain't no doubt in my mind.
00:05:24I can't believe he got off.
00:05:40Meanwhile, in Bayou Grignon, King of the Swamp Troy Landry and his deckhand Pickleweed have been slowed down by low
00:05:49water all day.
00:05:52And Troy's getting frustrated.
00:05:55Oh, whoa.
00:05:57Oh, Lord.
00:05:59Damn, I'm jammed up.
00:06:00Back up.
00:06:01I can't back up.
00:06:02I can't pull up.
00:06:04I'm stuck.
00:06:05Oh, that's why I'm stuck.
00:06:08Troy's motor is caught on log, further testing his patience.
00:06:13I like to rush.
00:06:14I like to come in hard, catch him, shoot him, throw him in the boat, run to the next one.
00:06:19That's how I like to do it.
00:06:23But with this water fluctuating like it's doing, we can't get on top of things.
00:06:30What's the chances?
00:06:36When the water fluctuates like it's doing this year, you just don't know.
00:06:40The last few days, it's been crazy.
00:06:43Let's see if I can back out of here.
00:06:51All right, Pete.
00:06:52Boy, we just locked up, man.
00:07:01Talk to him.
00:07:03This way.
00:07:03Oh, okay.
00:07:04Now that I see you.
00:07:10Oh, but of course.
00:07:11He's hung up.
00:07:15Cut the line and tie it to the front of the boat if you can't pull it.
00:07:18I'm gonna back it out.
00:07:20Tell me when you gotta tie.
00:07:21Hold on.
00:07:23All right, go with it, Troy.
00:07:25Go with it.
00:07:27Go with it.
00:07:31Go with it.
00:07:33Get the gun.
00:07:33Get the gun.
00:07:35Get the gun.
00:07:36Come on, Jake.
00:07:40There he is.
00:07:41He's gone.
00:07:48Ah.
00:07:49Bring him up.
00:07:50Bring him up.
00:07:51I'm trying.
00:07:54Whoa.
00:07:55Oh, Lord of mercy.
00:07:56Ooh, got my hands hurt.
00:08:07You saw that shot?
00:08:09I did, I did.
00:08:10You seen that shot, little bear?
00:08:11Running my eyeballs.
00:08:13Huh?
00:08:13You psshed me.
00:08:15What happened?
00:08:16You're frightened.
00:08:17Oh, Lord of mercy.
00:08:18What?
00:08:19That's a big ol' gator.
00:08:20The big one?
00:08:21Yeah!
00:08:22What'd you expect?
00:08:23What'd you think?
00:08:24We'd catch a little one?
00:08:31The hunters end their long day on a high note.
00:08:34But Troy wants his deckhand to pick up the pace.
00:08:38Okay.
00:08:39Hold on.
00:08:40Don't move.
00:08:41And he thinks a little competition could help.
00:08:44I'll just that soon bring my mama, maybe.
00:08:46I could get a little work out of her.
00:08:48Ah!
00:08:50Ah!
00:08:51Ah!
00:08:51I'm so mad at you.
00:08:53Mr. Troy always messes with me.
00:08:55Of course, it's just his way of getting me to kind of pick up the pace a little bit.
00:08:59But he's always messing with me about, oh, my mama could do better.
00:09:01I'm gonna take my mama out on the boat.
00:09:03She's gonna replace you, you know?
00:09:04She's 81, but I'm thinking she might do better than blank, blank.
00:09:10I think your, uh, I think your plan to take your mama's gonna backfire on you.
00:09:14Why?
00:09:15You're gonna end up grounded with a weapon.
00:09:18She's gonna say,
00:09:19Troy, Adam, go get the switch.
00:09:22It won't be the first time.
00:09:23It won't be the first time.
00:09:24I'm gonna try it.
00:09:33Here we go.
00:09:34Let's go.
00:09:34Let's go.
00:09:35Let's go.
00:09:36Let's go.
00:09:38In Bayou Vail, it's nearly sunset for Joey Edgar and his daughter Callie.
00:09:45The duo pulled in 11 gators today, and Joey's feeling good about this season.
00:09:51We have about 50 tags, more than we had last year.
00:09:55We have a lot of work to do, but we have good weather,
00:09:57no storms in the forecast.
00:09:59And we're ready.
00:10:00I'm ready to get it on.
00:10:04This our last one right here?
00:10:06Yeah.
00:10:10He's on the bank.
00:10:15They look nice.
00:10:17Oh, that's a 10-footer.
00:10:24OK.
00:10:25Today, I can't get a shot, but we're
00:10:26going to try to get him in open water.
00:10:27OK.
00:10:42Hold on.
00:10:43He's coming.
00:10:45There we go.
00:10:49Real nice alligator.
00:10:50Get it.
00:10:50Pulling the boat around.
00:10:51Hold him, Dad.
00:10:57Don't lose him.
00:11:03He's still got fight.
00:11:04Yeah.
00:11:09Whoa.
00:11:11Got to get you a shot.
00:11:13Hold it, Dad.
00:11:15All right.
00:11:15That was my shot right there.
00:11:20All right.
00:11:21Good job.
00:11:22All right.
00:11:28All right.
00:11:33Good job, Titty.
00:11:35Good job.
00:11:37All right, Titty.
00:11:38We done.
00:11:38All right.
00:11:38Let's go.
00:11:40This 10-footer is a great end to the day.
00:11:44And the celebration doesn't last long.
00:11:48Uh-oh.
00:11:49Uh-oh.
00:11:50What?
00:11:52Hold on.
00:11:53Hold on.
00:11:54Joe.
00:11:55Hey, Joe.
00:11:55Hey, Joe.
00:11:56I just made it in, man.
00:11:58The ice house is out at the dock.
00:12:01I have heard checking it out.
00:12:02I don't all know what's wrong with it.
00:12:04Uh, but they're going to need some help, uh, with it.
00:12:08Uh, so you might have to come in and get some parts for it or something.
00:12:11All right.
00:12:12We-we done.
00:12:13I'm coming.
00:12:13You would need ice.
00:12:15No doubt.
00:12:16Ice machine's down.
00:12:18We in the seafood business, and we have to have ice, because I put ice on everything.
00:12:23My crabs, my soft shells, my alligators.
00:12:26But I don't want my alligators to go bad.
00:12:29So whenever the ice machine is down at St. Mary's, we shut down.
00:12:33Without ice, anything they catch will spoil in hot weather.
00:12:38With only days left in gator season, Joey has to decide if he should fill tags tomorrow
00:12:44or spend the day fixing the ice machine.
00:12:47We can't afford to take a day off today.
00:12:49I know. I understand that.
00:12:51The alligators are going to be on the line.
00:12:53We got money to make.
00:12:54We got money to make.
00:12:55You think you can run these lines tomorrow?
00:12:58I think I could do it.
00:12:59We're going to be able to see.
00:13:00Cody, I trust you.
00:13:01Okay.
00:13:02You got this.
00:13:03Tomorrow, I'm going to send Callie on and on.
00:13:06It's always a challenging deal, but I have a lot of confidence in Callie.
00:13:10Callie's progressed as an alligator hunter.
00:13:12She's more confident.
00:13:15Callie's a monster.
00:13:16I mean, I'm pretty confident in myself, but only time will tell.
00:13:19We will see tomorrow.
00:13:20Let's roll.
00:13:32Oh, my God.
00:13:51He's got the same.
00:13:53I'm close, man.
00:13:54Oh, my God.
00:13:56Don't callie.
00:13:57Don't callie.
00:13:58We'll callie.
00:14:00Okay.
00:14:00We'll callie.
00:14:03But I have saw some monster gators out here.
00:14:05So me and Kalen, we start running open water,
00:14:07trying to see if we can find some of them big old bull gators.
00:14:11Hey, look, straight ahead.
00:14:12Straight ahead.
00:14:13Straight ahead.
00:14:13Straight ahead.
00:14:14I'm going to try to cut him off to go in the lilies, OK?
00:14:21That's what I'm blasting out of here.
00:14:33Right there.
00:14:34Right here, look.
00:14:35Here he goes.
00:14:36There he is.
00:14:36There he is.
00:14:37Right in front of him.
00:14:38Right in front of him.
00:14:38Right in front of you.
00:14:40Way over there, dog.
00:14:42Right there.
00:14:42He's moving on.
00:14:43He might be bigger than we thought.
00:14:45Sure enough.
00:14:47Got him out of there, boy.
00:14:52He's right there.
00:14:53Oh, I got him.
00:14:54I got him.
00:14:55Got him?
00:14:56Oh, yeah.
00:14:57Oh, he come off.
00:14:58I take off.
00:15:02That's a good gator, yeah.
00:15:04Yeah.
00:15:11I mean, we never see where he took off, huh?
00:15:13I saw some bubbles right to the right of him,
00:15:15but I don't know about that.
00:15:22Look.
00:15:22You see some bubbles right there?
00:15:23Look.
00:15:24You see some bubbles?
00:15:25Yeah, yeah.
00:15:34What was that?
00:15:35What were we at?
00:15:36I don't think we hit nothing.
00:15:37Something hit us.
00:15:46In Bayou Point de Fuit.
00:15:51What was that?
00:15:52What were we at?
00:15:53I don't think we hit nothing.
00:15:54Something hit us.
00:15:56Don and Calum just went from hunters to hunted.
00:16:07There's some sort of smack the hell out of the bottom of the boat.
00:16:09Something got us just in, yeah.
00:16:11There wasn't no fish.
00:16:12Ain't fish big enough out here.
00:16:14Uh-uh.
00:16:14The big gator is what that was just in.
00:16:16Don knows they have an especially aggressive beast in the water,
00:16:20and given their location,
00:16:23he has a hunch who it is.
00:16:25Uh, maybe Methuselah.
00:16:31They said he was still here.
00:16:34Ain't no telling how old that dude is.
00:16:36I've been over here with Jacob before
00:16:37and he's told me several times
00:16:40about this monster gator named Methuselah.
00:16:43What would you have done
00:16:44if you'd have hooked onto that big dude, huh?
00:16:47Hey, we might have to fire up the motor
00:16:49to stay up with that one, huh?
00:16:51That ought to be the biggest gator out there.
00:16:53Boy, I'd love to bring that big dude in.
00:16:55This is supposed to be the oldest gator around here,
00:16:57and this thing is huge.
00:16:59And the reason he's so huge and so old,
00:17:01he is that smart.
00:17:03Any other gator will go away from you when you hit him.
00:17:06This gator comes back to the boat.
00:17:09You see where he went?
00:17:11I don't see nothing.
00:17:13Facing an opportunity to catch a legend,
00:17:17Don decides they'll return to this area tomorrow.
00:17:20Well, I think we're gonna put some lines out right here.
00:17:23Well, especially now that we know he's in here, it's working.
00:17:26Guarantee it. Guarantee it.
00:17:42As a new day dawns in Louisiana...
00:17:45What's going on, Cub?
00:17:47...the Ron Jones and his deckhand Anthony Porkchop Williams
00:17:50are at the docks,
00:17:52preparing for one of their final hunts of the season.
00:17:56Come on here, boss.
00:17:58How about with this?
00:18:01Let me put... let me put Sally up.
00:18:03Man.
00:18:06Hey, how you men doing?
00:18:08What's up, my man?
00:18:09What's up, my man?
00:18:10What's up, my man?
00:18:10Y'all the Ron and Porkchop?
00:18:11Yes, sir.
00:18:12Yes, sir.
00:18:13Good. I'm Brian.
00:18:14How you doing, man? Porkchop.
00:18:16Leroy, man.
00:18:16Nice to meet you.
00:18:17They told me down at Duffins I could find y'all.
00:18:19We done got ourselves in a little bind.
00:18:22One of our hunters was sick and the boat was down,
00:18:24and we got to have these five tags for the next couple days.
00:18:28We could be there.
00:18:29We could have a little honey at the end of this
00:18:30if y'all like something sweet.
00:18:3215 more tags.
00:18:3415 more.
00:18:3415 more.
00:18:36The chance to pick up some more tags this late in the season
00:18:39is a golden opportunity.
00:18:41But Leroy worries the low water could make this harder than usual.
00:18:46Man, after fighting this low water,
00:18:48we barely catching the getter that we getting with the tag we got.
00:18:52So you're like, you know, we could use the extra tag,
00:18:55but it's still a challenge.
00:18:56But we got a proposition like that.
00:18:58You gonna give me five tags and I can get 15?
00:19:02That's like winning the lottery in the alligator business.
00:19:05That's a lot of pressure to be on the jackup.
00:19:08Man, look, we gonna fill them five.
00:19:09Okay.
00:19:10And now we gonna give it our best.
00:19:12Okay.
00:19:12Ain't no pressure for y'all.
00:19:14They say y'all are the right ones to do the job.
00:19:15We are.
00:19:16Okay.
00:19:17Good.
00:19:17Okay.
00:19:17We gonna take this on, bro.
00:19:18And we fill E5, you get an extra 15.
00:19:2215 more.
00:19:23Now the pressure is really on me, Leroy.
00:19:25It's really on me, Leroy.
00:19:26We done took on another responsibility,
00:19:28and we still have our responsibility
00:19:30that Mother Nature is busting us up with.
00:19:33An extra 15.
00:19:34All we gotta do fill E5.
00:19:36But we get 15 more.
00:19:37But I like putting $2 in the poker machine, boy,
00:19:40and winning $150, boy.
00:19:42Get away, huh?
00:19:43Hey!
00:19:45All the way we can help this guy out,
00:19:46and we gotta go pull some moisture lines.
00:19:48So we said, all right, that'll work.
00:19:49Hopefully we can fill our tag,
00:19:51and this guy tag, too.
00:19:53Stuff like this.
00:19:54Yeah, they don't come by too often, man.
00:19:58Let's roll through that.
00:20:13Over in Pierre Park,
00:20:15Troi and Pickle are ahead on their tag count.
00:20:19And Troi has a surprise for his deckhand.
00:20:22I wonder where I'll see that.
00:20:25Mama!
00:20:26Uh-huh.
00:20:28I told you I was bringing my mama.
00:20:30You really?
00:20:31Good morning.
00:20:32Good morning.
00:20:33You really coming, huh?
00:20:34I told you I was bringing my mama.
00:20:36Good morning.
00:20:37I didn't know whether to take him seriously or not.
00:20:39My mom been asking me for the last year or two
00:20:42to come out with us,
00:20:43and I was kind of worried about taking her.
00:20:46But she asked me again this year,
00:20:48so I feel I have to.
00:20:50I want you to show her how to puzzle,
00:20:52because she's slacking lately.
00:20:54She's slacking.
00:20:55And I threatened.
00:20:56I said, I'm going to bring my mama.
00:20:57She's going to show you how to do it.
00:20:59My mom is a workaholic.
00:21:01She still is.
00:21:02And I'm going to threaten Pee Wee while mama's in the boat.
00:21:05I'm going to say, you better tighten up,
00:21:06or this is your replacement.
00:21:09I feel like you're really behaving yourself today.
00:21:13Oh, yeah?
00:21:13Yeah.
00:21:14I think it's because my mama's in the boat.
00:21:17Maybe so.
00:21:18Talk to me, baby.
00:21:21I also got a big one.
00:21:23The guns loaded?
00:21:24No.
00:21:25No.
00:21:25I'm sure your mama could have did a better job with that one, huh?
00:21:28Oh, you see what I got to go through, mama?
00:21:30Oh, sit.
00:21:45Thank you, Zoe.
00:21:49See it oops.
00:21:50Ooh, that's too good.
00:21:51Good good.
00:21:54I almost lost it.
00:21:56Ooh, yeah!
00:21:58Huh?
00:21:59It?
00:22:00Come shoot him.
00:22:01Come shoot him.
00:22:02Come shoot him.
00:22:10Ooh, bring him up.
00:22:12Ooh!
00:22:17Bring him up.
00:22:18Ooh, Lord of mercy.
00:22:20Wait a minute.
00:22:21Put him flat on top of the head.
00:22:35Oh!
00:22:37Yeah!
00:22:39You all right?
00:22:40What happened?
00:22:42I don't know.
00:22:44Oh, my goodness, mama.
00:22:45You just took a bat.
00:22:46You all right?
00:22:47Good job, mother!
00:22:49Okay, mama, come here.
00:22:52What?
00:22:52Grab that front leg.
00:22:55Okay, on three, we gotta pick up and end the boat.
00:22:58One, two, three.
00:22:59Oh!
00:23:01Yeah.
00:23:02Doing good, mother.
00:23:03Give me five.
00:23:05All right?
00:23:06I got it from here.
00:23:07This is a great start to the day.
00:23:09And Troy's mom has already proven her gator hunting prowess.
00:23:14What is that, a six foot?
00:23:16Yeah, about seven, seven and a half, close to eight.
00:23:21If God caught that, your other son would be like a ten footer.
00:23:25Oh.
00:23:26At least a ten footer.
00:23:29I was a little worried when I saw Miss Myrtle coming to the boat
00:23:32because you don't hear of an 80-year-old woman going hunt alligators out on a boat.
00:23:37But this woman has been doing this her whole life, you know?
00:23:40It's like second nature to her.
00:23:42So for her, it's just like standing in her kitchen cooking a meal for her family, you know?
00:23:47She's going out on a boat with her son for the day.
00:23:49Let's roll.
00:23:50Let's roll.
00:23:51That's right.
00:23:52Come on.
00:23:53You got your mama full of blood.
00:23:57That's okay.
00:24:00That's not the worst.
00:24:13Over in Bayou Bell, with her father sidetracked by an emergency at St. Mary's,
00:24:19Callie heads out onto the water solo.
00:24:23It's the first day by myself when I'm going to try and do my best as I can.
00:24:27But at the same time, I haven't done it before.
00:24:30So it's just going to take a little bit of learning and taking it step by step
00:24:33and remembering what dad has taught me in the past.
00:24:40Yeah, they got an alligator on the line.
00:25:07I'm going.
00:25:14I'm going.
00:25:15I'm going.
00:25:17I'm going.
00:25:26Oh.
00:25:28There's a...
00:25:34Whoa!
00:25:38Ooh!
00:25:43In Bayou Bell,
00:25:46Callie is known wrestling the Leviathan.
00:25:52Give me a shot.
00:25:56Oh!
00:26:18Not a bad starter.
00:26:19It's not a monster, but I'm gonna get that taxi.
00:26:21I'm gonna...
00:26:31Callie's bagged her first solo gator,
00:26:34but she knows there's a long road ahead.
00:26:37At that moment, as I got that alligator in the boat,
00:26:39I'm like, it's just gonna be a tough, tough day.
00:26:42I gotta fight the alligator by myself,
00:26:44grab my gun by myself,
00:26:45pull him in the boat by myself.
00:26:46It's just a lot of things that I have to do by myself.
00:26:49I'm just realizing it's really hard.
00:26:56If there's any way I can prove myself,
00:26:59if there's any way I can prove myself,
00:26:59is to come back with a load of alligators hunting by myself,
00:27:02then that's what I'm gonna do.
00:27:21Meanwhile, in Bayou Pointe of Wheat,
00:27:25yesterday Don and Calum were attacked by a legendary monster.
00:27:33What was that?
00:27:34What were we at?
00:27:35I don't think we hit nothing, except hit us.
00:27:40Now the hunters are returning to the lines they set
00:27:44to bag this swamp mid.
00:27:48Oldest gator in the swamp.
00:27:50Your papa told Troy,
00:27:52and Troy told Jacob.
00:27:54Really?
00:27:55So, this thing is over 100 years old plus.
00:27:58That's crazy.
00:27:58This gator might not be seen in the last 20 years.
00:28:01Still might be sitting right out there somewhere.
00:28:03With the water being this low, hopefully it pays off.
00:28:05Hopefully we get them.
00:28:06Won't be nice.
00:28:08This thing is supposed to be like 14 foot long,
00:28:12oldest gator in the swamp.
00:28:14And these big bull gators like Methuselah,
00:28:16they stay back in the trees,
00:28:18where all the stumps are,
00:28:20and you can't get a boat back there.
00:28:22But when the water does get lower,
00:28:24and they come out in more than open,
00:28:26that's when we got a shot at them.
00:28:36Well, if he ain't got very many teeth,
00:28:38he already likes about rotten chicken
00:28:39to just fall off the bone, huh?
00:28:41Yeah, well, hopefully we'll put out enough of it
00:28:43to make them come out of it.
00:28:51I know we got one on this one, look.
00:28:54Oh, yeah, look at that one.
00:28:55Oh, yeah, look at him.
00:28:59Might be on Methuselah on this one.
00:29:02Oh, yeah, here we go.
00:29:03Oh, yeah.
00:29:06I mean...
00:29:10You got a bull!
00:29:17Yeah, it's a tad.
00:29:19Get him, get him, get him, get him, get him,
00:29:21give me a shot!
00:29:25Oh, yeah.
00:29:32Oh, yeah, I'm in this one.
00:29:33Go!
00:29:34Go!
00:29:36Go!
00:29:37Roger!
00:29:38Yo, good shot!
00:29:48Good job!
00:29:49Love the smell of guns smoking big gators in the morning.
00:29:52Whoa, that's a jack!
00:29:54Hell yeah!
00:29:55At eight and a half feet long, it's clear this isn't their target.
00:30:01That's not Methuselah.
00:30:04When that Methuselah hit our boat, it was like a submarine hit us.
00:30:08Methuselah is twice this big.
00:30:10Probably eight to nine hundred pounds.
00:30:12This thing is a monster.
00:30:15Well, I'd sure like to see that old big gator.
00:30:18Oh, yeah.
00:30:19Jake has been after that damn gator.
00:30:20I've heard about that story since the first day I came down here and started fishing with Jake.
00:30:25Oh, we could get a good 13 foot, huh?
00:30:27Oh, man.
00:30:29I'd do the Irish jig and give you 30 minutes to go around.
00:30:32Not even do it from the drawers off.
00:30:43Over in Bayou Tricks, hey!
00:30:47LeBron and Porkchop are returning the lines they set on a new landowner's property.
00:30:52The hunters had the opportunity to earn 15 tags.
00:30:56But first, they have to catch five gators for the desperate landowner.
00:31:00And with water levels nearing the record low, nothing is guaranteed.
00:31:06Man, we got them five tags from old boy, man.
00:31:09You know, we fulfill that, bro.
00:31:11That's 15 extra tags.
00:31:13But I ain't gonna lie, cuz that's a lot of responsibility we took on for extra five tags.
00:31:17You know they can put a lot of pressure on us, Jack.
00:31:18I'm trying to pressure in on her.
00:31:21I'm just letting you know, cuz.
00:31:23But, you know, hey, we took on his responsibility, cuz.
00:31:26So we gotta do, we gotta do, you know.
00:31:28We gonna get him, who's that?
00:31:30I sure in the hell hope so, okay?
00:31:32After fighting this little water, we barely catching the gator that we getting with the tag we got.
00:31:37So you're like, you know, we could use the extra tag, but it's still a challenge.
00:31:41So I'm feeling double the heat.
00:31:43Hopefully we got something on this.
00:31:53Look like they're lying down, boy.
00:31:54Yeah.
00:31:55That's a good sign, bro, with them five tags.
00:31:58All right.
00:31:58I saw that pole shaking just now, cuz.
00:32:00We got some action, huh?
00:32:09Woo!
00:32:09Yeah, cuz we got something.
00:32:16Ah!
00:32:17Boy, that thing here, he got some power on it.
00:32:23Yeah, he got some power.
00:32:24He was just popping one time.
00:32:26Woo!
00:32:29Watch out!
00:32:30Come on, help me get back!
00:32:31Turn!
00:32:31We gonna pop in line!
00:32:36Look, he's got beef!
00:32:39Whoa!
00:32:43In Bayou Treté, Leron and Porkchop are trying to hold on to an angry beast.
00:32:49He got beef!
00:32:50He's in the jail!
00:32:51He's in the jail!
00:32:52Come on, Tusa!
00:32:54There it is, cuz.
00:32:55You gotta get ready tonight, cuz.
00:32:58Ah!
00:32:59Something, give me a green light and you're ready for me.
00:33:03I got him, cuz.
00:33:05Be careful, cuz.
00:33:08There you go, cuz.
00:33:09Get your one.
00:33:17Woo, cuz.
00:33:19One down, boy.
00:33:20One down, four more to go, cuz.
00:33:23Laying this 10-foot monster on their first line has the hunters feeling confident they can accomplish their mission and
00:33:29earn the extra tags.
00:33:32Got him 15 in the back, cuz.
00:33:33I'm telling you.
00:33:34I'm pumped up.
00:33:35He pumped up.
00:33:36Because 15 more tags, man, that's a bonus for us.
00:33:40You know, hopefully we can catch some more gators down the road, but things are looking real good for me
00:33:44and Leron right now.
00:33:45So, Ab, we got one, cuz.
00:33:46We need four more, cuz, huh?
00:33:48We got that pressure on us, cuz, but I ain't worried about that.
00:33:50I ain't worried about that, cuz.
00:34:09Over in Bayou Granouille, Bruce and Anna are determined to hook a seasoned, defining gator, so they're returning to the
00:34:18area where they lost the massive beast yesterday.
00:34:21I hope we can catch that gator today.
00:34:24I hope we can, too.
00:34:25Oh, we're gonna get him.
00:34:26Ain't no doubt in my mind.
00:34:27Well, let's go get him.
00:34:29It's gonna be hard to find, but I'll find him.
00:34:31I don't know.
00:34:34We'll see.
00:34:34We done set all these lines yesterday.
00:34:37Can't wait to get over here and see what we got.
00:34:39I'm hoping we catch that big gator.
00:34:41I'm gonna get him.
00:34:43It's down.
00:34:44Oh, it's down?
00:34:45Yeah.
00:34:46Well, I ain't used to that.
00:34:47Well, let's go see what we got on it.
00:34:48Well, let's go.
00:34:49Wait on you.
00:34:50I'm waiting on you.
00:34:51No, you gotta get the pole.
00:34:53I got the pole.
00:34:54Yeah, I know it took you long enough.
00:34:56Is there anything?
00:35:05Oh, what you got?
00:35:07Oh, oh, there's something on it.
00:35:09You're lying.
00:35:09I am not.
00:35:14Don't watch him.
00:35:16Get him up.
00:35:16Get him up.
00:35:21Come on.
00:35:21Come on.
00:35:23Come on.
00:35:23Get him up.
00:35:28Can we get a shot?
00:35:29No.
00:35:31Come on.
00:35:32Come on.
00:35:32Watch him.
00:35:34Get him up.
00:35:35Get him up.
00:35:43Get him up.
00:35:44You got to worry about him no more.
00:35:46Nice shot.
00:35:48Well, he's a bad gator.
00:35:49It just ain't the one we're looking for.
00:35:51Yeah.
00:35:52You know he's bigger than this.
00:35:53Yeah, I think so.
00:35:55Well, let's get him up here.
00:35:57All right.
00:36:02The hunters land a solid eight-footer,
00:36:05but it's not the brute they're after.
00:36:08Well, we got gas covered, and that's about it.
00:36:11It's a big gator now, but it's not him.
00:36:13It's not the one that breaks the line.
00:36:16Uh-uh.
00:36:17I think the one that broke the line was a lot bigger than this,
00:36:20so we're gonna keep trying.
00:36:23I bet it was all right, but there ain't one we're looking for,
00:36:26I don't believe.
00:36:26No.
00:36:45Over in Bayou Grignon,
00:36:47it's all wrong.
00:36:48Word is out that the king of the swamp
00:36:51is spending the day hunting
00:36:52with the Landry family matriarch.
00:36:56Look what Tony got you, mama.
00:36:59Look how pretty.
00:37:00God eff, huh?
00:37:02You got to all eat your one.
00:37:05You got to all eat your one.
00:37:07Look how nice, huh?
00:37:09I got the another one.
00:37:11You're going nice for Troy.
00:37:13Give me the Troy.
00:37:13You're going better.
00:37:16Thank you, Tony.
00:37:18Look how pretty.
00:37:18Look how pretty.
00:37:21Pretty, huh?
00:37:23The swamp flourished, don't it?
00:37:26That was nice of him to bring y'all some flowers.
00:37:28That was so sweet.
00:37:30They're so pretty.
00:37:31They are pretty.
00:37:33Put it right here, mom.
00:37:35Wow.
00:37:41Look how pretty, huh?
00:37:42Troy Landry has this presence about him.
00:37:46He's a grizzly bear, you know?
00:37:48Like this group of a man.
00:37:50And I'm seeing him with his mom, and he's very tender.
00:37:54And it's a really nice side to see of him.
00:37:57Boy, I'm going to tell you, mama.
00:37:59I'm going to start bringing you every day.
00:38:01Yeah, she's coming every day. I like it.
00:38:03She was doing good now that you're here.
00:38:06I ain't got a pusher all day.
00:38:08Mama, I like you being on the boat.
00:38:10We get to take a break.
00:38:14Mmm.
00:38:14I want one of these.
00:38:16Mmm.
00:38:17Mmm.
00:38:18You all got lollipops?
00:38:20Yeah.
00:38:21This is nice.
00:38:23It's so pretty out here.
00:38:24I never get to sit and enjoy it, you know?
00:38:26It's gorgeous.
00:38:26I hope I can come out here at 81.
00:38:2981.
00:38:31Where did the years go by?
00:38:35That was 65 years Sunday we got married.
00:38:38Wow.
00:38:39Did he act anything like this one?
00:38:41Uh-uh.
00:38:42No.
00:38:43Okay, that's why.
00:38:49How about you there? You have no idea, my love.
00:38:53He loves me.
00:38:54He says all this trash, but he loves me.
00:38:57Y'all want a piece of honey bun?
00:39:00My hands are dirty.
00:39:04Like a baby bird.
00:39:06Mmm-mmm.
00:39:08People, you never bring me no snack.
00:39:10Oh, never.
00:39:11Never.
00:39:12Not a snack.
00:39:13Stop lying to your mama.
00:39:15Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:39:27Over in Bayou Bell...
00:39:29Hard day with our dad today.
00:39:31By myself.
00:39:32Callie's getting pushed to her limits facing the swamp solo.
00:39:36But she's not backing down.
00:39:39It's really hard.
00:39:40I mean, when I got in that moment where I was just a little down,
00:39:43and it was just, I knew it was going to be a hard day.
00:39:45I just said a little prayer in my mind.
00:39:46Tried to regroup myself and get this favor done for my dad,
00:39:50you know, because I know I'd really make him proud
00:39:52and proud of myself, too, honestly,
00:39:53because it's just a tough, tough day.
00:40:02The line's tight.
00:40:21I think I got one.
00:40:33Oh.
00:40:36Gotta give me a good shot.
00:40:38Gotta give me a good shot.
00:40:40Whoa!
00:40:41He's biting the boat.
00:40:41He's biting the boat.
00:40:43He's biting the boat.
00:40:45In Bayou Bell...
00:40:47Whoa!
00:40:49...Callie's struggling to beg a feisty beast alone.
00:40:54Whoa.
00:40:59Give me a shot.
00:41:01Whoa!
00:41:08Gotta give me a good shot.
00:41:20Now that's what I'm talking about.
00:41:23All right.
00:41:26If I want to prove myself as Edgar,
00:41:29I've got to bring in a boatload of gators.
00:41:33And that's what I'm doing.
00:41:34This is a nice eight-footer to add to her stack.
00:41:38But the grind of solo hunting is taking its toll on the young hunter.
00:41:43Whoo!
00:41:44Got my work cut out for me today.
00:41:46It's really, really tough being by yourself in the boat.
00:41:50Driving the airboat.
00:41:51Getting alligators in.
00:41:52It's just a lot.
00:41:53You know?
00:41:53It's a lot going on for one person to be by their self.
00:41:56All right.
00:41:58Man, I sure hope Dad got that freezer fixed.
00:42:01I don't want to do two days of this.
00:42:03I don't want to do two days of this.
00:42:31It's beautiful.
00:42:32Yeah, I think it's still deep in here.
00:42:39How many more logs do you think we got, though?
00:42:40We got the two on the main, and we got the three in the cut up here, and that's it.
00:42:45Man, I'd love to come in with a big gator like that to show that Jacob and Troy.
00:42:48Oh, I would, too.
00:42:50And I got one thing on my mind.
00:42:52One thing and one thing only.
00:42:54And that's Methuselah.
00:42:56This thing is supposed to be massive.
00:42:58You don't even know how we're going to get in a boat.
00:43:00But first, I got to catch it.
00:43:03The line's down.
00:43:08Oh, we got something back there.
00:43:12Yeah.
00:43:17This is where Jaguar was talking about Methuselah down here.
00:43:27We got, we got, we got.
00:43:31That ain't no Methuselah, is it?
00:43:34Oh!
00:43:36It's not Methuselah.
00:43:38It's a Jag.
00:43:43Yeah.
00:43:44Look at him go!
00:43:45Look at him go!
00:43:46Woo!
00:43:47Yep.
00:43:47We're in the right area.
00:43:48We're getting closer.
00:43:50All right.
00:43:50Come on, get a big shot.
00:43:51Give me a shot.
00:43:52Give me a shot.
00:43:52Give me a shot.
00:43:52Give me a shot.
00:43:53Give me a shot.
00:43:54Give me a shoot.
00:43:54Damn.
00:43:59Hold him up, Kalem.
00:44:00Hold him up.
00:44:01I'm trying.
00:44:01I'm trying.
00:44:01Hold him up.
00:44:04Get him closer.
00:44:18Good job.
00:44:20It's a tag.
00:44:23He's a blader.
00:44:25The hunters may not have Methuselah, but Don's not giving up on a chance to enter the Landry family lore.
00:44:33Mr. Duffy, Troy's daddy had been hunting this thing.
00:44:36Then when he got too old to fish, Troy got after him.
00:44:39Now Jacob's been after him.
00:44:41I want to prove who I am.
00:44:43I want this gator.
00:44:44I want it bad.
00:44:45I sure like to see that old big gator.
00:44:48Oh, yeah.
00:44:48That right there would be a swamp donkey.
00:44:51Boy, you know the kind of attaboy we'd get or we'd get?
00:44:53Oh, well.
00:44:54He might get a little jealous.
00:44:55I don't know.
00:44:56I'd like to make him jealous.
00:45:12In Bayou Grandouille.
00:45:14We gotta hide one up here, Anna.
00:45:15It's hanging.
00:45:16No, it ain't.
00:45:18Nah.
00:45:19Bruce and Anna have yet to track down the beast that broke their line yesterday.
00:45:24And time is running out.
00:45:27Well, we got about three lines left and I don't know what's going to happen.
00:45:31We might have to rebate all these and do it again.
00:45:33I just want to catch this big gator.
00:45:35He is huge.
00:45:36He's big.
00:45:37We got to get him.
00:45:46Down?
00:45:49All right.
00:45:50Oh, we got a gator on?
00:45:52Yeah, gator on.
00:45:53All right.
00:45:55Showtime.
00:45:57That'll be a tough line.
00:46:07Oh, he's on the line.
00:46:08Oh, you got one?
00:46:09Yeah.
00:46:09Get him up there.
00:46:15He's on the bottom.
00:46:17Yeah?
00:46:17He's not letting me bring him up.
00:46:20Oh, he's big.
00:46:27It's him!
00:46:27It's him!
00:46:29He's coming this way!
00:46:32They're fouled!
00:46:37Let it go!
00:46:42In Bayou Grandouille...
00:46:44You all right?
00:46:45Yeah!
00:46:45Bruce and Anna may have finally found the monster that snapped their line.
00:46:50There he is!
00:46:54That is a big gator.
00:46:56Don't let him pull you over.
00:46:58As soon as I get a shot, I'm going to take him.
00:47:02I can't get a shot.
00:47:02You don't want to come up!
00:47:08Shoot him!
00:47:08Shoot him!
00:47:18That's a 12-13 footer.
00:47:20I think that's the biggest gator we ever caught together.
00:47:22At a staggering 13 feet long, there's no doubt this is the record-setting behemoth that got
00:47:29away yesterday.
00:47:31Pull him up.
00:47:32This gator is heavy as all get out.
00:47:34Oh, my gosh.
00:47:34It took us quite a while to winch him up, get him in.
00:47:37He's huge!
00:47:38That's definitely him.
00:47:40And we look at him, and me and Mr. Brute both are like, this is him.
00:47:44Worked too hard for this gator.
00:47:46Whew!
00:47:47We got him.
00:47:49Get out of here.
00:47:54That's a good gator.
00:47:55Yes!
00:48:05Over in Bayou Tritté, the Ron and Porkchop are trying to earn 15 extra tags by catching
00:48:11five gators today for a nearby landowner.
00:48:16But after landing a beast on their first line, their luck has run dry.
00:48:22Looks like that line's still up, cut.
00:48:24Hey, I'm getting a little word.
00:48:25You might not pull through with this, man.
00:48:27It's all more like fishing.
00:48:29They said when you cut the first fish on the first calf, you ain't gonna cut nothing out
00:48:32that day.
00:48:33Line after line after line, gator's just not touching it.
00:48:37No way.
00:48:38Cool, though.
00:48:39I ain't got nothing.
00:48:39Man!
00:48:40We could use them extra tags, but it was a gamble.
00:48:43You know, I'm starting to doubt myself.
00:48:45Let me see what we got, cool, then.
00:48:49Boy, I hope that's a gator instead of a rock.
00:48:53Blow it down.
00:48:54Look, hold, hold, hold.
00:48:55I see something, boy.
00:48:56All right, get the rock.
00:48:57Hold on, hold on, hold on.
00:49:01I see that rock.
00:49:03All right.
00:49:12Whoa, watch yourself, car.
00:49:17There you go.
00:49:17One time.
00:49:18Look at that.
00:49:19I'ma get him now.
00:49:20I'ma get him now.
00:49:23I'ma get you one.
00:49:26There you go.
00:49:27One time.
00:49:28Look at that.
00:49:30Got him, bro.
00:49:37I'ma get him now.
00:49:37Watch yourself, bro.
00:49:45Hey!
00:49:46God.
00:49:47I was getting a little worried earlier, man.
00:49:49With them tags.
00:49:50Ain't not this big as one, bro.
00:49:52Them tags still gotta get filled, bro.
00:49:54Yeah, cuz.
00:49:54With just a handful of lines left to run, and three more tags left to fill for the landowner,
00:50:00this gator is exactly what they needed.
00:50:04I'm not worried about impressing the man who gave me the tag, cuz he just said fill the
00:50:08tag.
00:50:09He didn't say get all five, twelve footers.
00:50:11So, in my mind, I was lucky I was starting to change.
00:50:14He ain't the biggest girl, but hey, it's a tag, bro.
00:50:16Down to the nitty-gritty.
00:50:18About to lay a dance to our singing yet.
00:50:19She's coming on.
00:50:20Hey!
00:50:21We getting close!
00:50:31Meanwhile, back in Bayou Grignon...
00:50:34Watch it, mama!
00:50:35Watch it!
00:50:36Troy and Pickle have had a successful day hunting with Troy's mama.
00:50:41But not everything's going how the king of the swamp planned.
00:50:45Come on, mother.
00:50:46Tell Peewee, fuss her.
00:50:48Fuss her like you fuss me.
00:50:49I think your plan's backfiring.
00:50:51You brought your mama to whip me into shape, and I think she's realizing something.
00:50:55You don't think quite about fussing me.
00:50:58Why are you not fussing her?
00:50:59I think she wished she would've whipped you a lot more.
00:51:01Yes.
00:51:02Thank you, mama.
00:51:04I really appreciate it.
00:51:06I don't know who raised that boy back there, but it wasn't you, right?
00:51:10It couldn't have been you.
00:51:11I brought my mama to help me straighten Peewee out.
00:51:16But all day long, they ganged up on me.
00:51:18That's not what I bought you for, mama.
00:51:20I bought you to help me, not to help Peewee.
00:51:23You see the lawn, Pee?
00:51:27Yeah, it's straight down.
00:51:30It doesn't look like it has anything on it.
00:51:36Nothing?
00:51:36Nope.
00:51:40Ooh.
00:51:40Never mind.
00:51:41Never mind.
00:51:42Never mind.
00:51:44I lied.
00:51:45Sike!
00:51:45He's a big one.
00:51:46He's a big one?
00:51:47He's a big one.
00:51:49Ooh, he's a big one.
00:51:50He's playing faster.
00:51:54Another mama!
00:51:55Ooh-ooh!
00:51:56Bring him up!
00:51:57Come on, Peewee!
00:51:59Ooh!
00:52:02Shut up, mama.
00:52:03Bring him up!
00:52:03Yeah!
00:52:04Bring him up!
00:52:15Shoot him!
00:52:16Give me a truck!
00:52:18Shoot him! What are you doing?
00:52:23In Bayou Gagnon...
00:52:25Come on, Pee-wee!
00:52:27Troy and Pickle are trying to land one more monster with Troy's mob.
00:52:31Who killed him? What are you doing?
00:52:35Come on, Troy!
00:52:37He's slow, Mama!
00:52:38I know he's slow!
00:52:40Wait for an invitation, you!
00:52:42You brought him in four times!
00:52:58I love you!
00:52:59Boy, that's a bad one!
00:53:02He's a little heavy, you wanna winch him?
00:53:03Let's show Mama how we work the winch!
00:53:05Oh, you wanna show Mama how we do the winch?
00:53:07Yeah, why not?
00:53:07Good, I'm all fine!
00:53:09Mama, you wanna work the button?
00:53:10Huh?
00:53:10The little remote?
00:53:11The hunters bag one last giant.
00:53:14But Troy knows today's real prize is precious time spent with family.
00:53:19Okay, Mama!
00:53:20Okay, Mom, precious!
00:53:24My mama, she used to be in the boats and in the woods a lot when she was younger.
00:53:30That's a big one.
00:53:31Yeah, that's a big one!
00:53:32But now, you know, at 81, she can only get out so much now.
00:53:36Damn, you're looking better than Pee-wee!
00:53:38They brought back a lot of good memory.
00:53:41And she's gonna remember this day forever.
00:53:43Maybe one day when I'm 80, my kids will take me alligator fishing, huh?
00:53:48If I'm lucky enough.
00:53:50I hope you'd be that lucky.
00:53:51Oh, yeah.
00:53:52You're a lucky woman, Mama!
00:53:54You read them right!
00:53:57I could've told you that!
00:54:09Down in Bayou Vale.
00:54:12Oh, my gosh!
00:54:14Running on fumes, Callie's digging deep to finish what she started.
00:54:19All right, last line.
00:54:20Let's see what we got right here.
00:54:21I think that when I'm really, really struggling, I just lean on God,
00:54:25because I know if I put my trust in Him, I'm gonna make it no matter what.
00:54:27If I ask Him for that strength, He's gonna prevail and give me the strength to finish the day.
00:54:32Line's tight!
00:54:34Feel like they got something on it.
00:54:40All right, let's see what we got.
00:54:46I think he might be on the line.
00:54:56I might have went a little too much up.
00:54:59Let's see.
00:55:07Let's see.
00:55:09I got a skinwalker.
00:55:11I'm on!
00:55:26Let's see if I can get a shot on this thing.
00:55:45That's what I'm talking about.
00:55:47Let's get this bad boy in the pool.
00:55:50This nine-footer is icing on the cake for Callie's hard-fought solo mission.
00:55:56Woo!
00:55:58Man, I earned my stripes today.
00:56:00You got a boatload of gators.
00:56:03My dad's gonna be proud of me.
00:56:05I was very, very proud of myself because I did everything by myself today.
00:56:09It feels really good to get that strength and finish my day strong.
00:56:12So, I feel like doing all of this is preparing my skill and helping myself be better at one day
00:56:19running St. Mary's Seafood.
00:56:22Time to go home.
00:56:30Time to go home.
00:56:36It's valuable to take.
00:56:38One more line to check, huh?
00:56:40The Ron and Porkchop need one more gator to earn fifteen additional tags.
00:56:46I'm nervous to that.
00:56:48I like, huh?
00:56:49Man, I sure you got something I like, huh?
00:56:52Man, that pressure on us, Cut.
00:56:54Oh, yeah, man.
00:56:56I like to finish a mission when I give a man my word.
00:57:00And not only I'm worrying about disappointing this guy
00:57:03we got the extra tag from,
00:57:04I'm also thinking about this 15 extra one.
00:57:08Like, man, we... this gonna be a double skunk.
00:57:16All right. It's down, Cut.
00:57:18It's down? We need this. Oh, yeah, Cut.
00:57:26Hold on, Cut.
00:57:27Hold on. Brace yourself, Cut.
00:57:28Yeah, I got it. Cut.
00:57:30Man, now we might have slack in that line.
00:57:35It don't feel like nothing, y'all, bro.
00:57:37Man, I hope that doesn't know the load.
00:57:40You ain't got nothing on that, man.
00:57:41Well, I don't know, bro.
00:57:43Well, it might be icing on the cake, y'all, bro.
00:57:45That's up, guy.
00:57:47Woo! Oh!
00:57:49Oh!
00:57:53Oh!
00:57:54In Bayou Trette...
00:57:55Hold up, Fudo. We gotta regroup, bro.
00:57:58The ramen pork chop have their fifth and final beast in their grasp.
00:58:02Oh, man.
00:58:04Icing on the kick.
00:58:05Oh, my, bro.
00:58:06Good job, boy.
00:58:07Oh.
00:58:08Come on, Cut. I gotta get it for that line, Cut.
00:58:10Come on, Cut.
00:58:13Come on, Cut.
00:58:15Come on, Cut.
00:58:22Come on, Cut.
00:58:25Come on, Cut.
00:58:29Come on, Cut.
00:58:30We gotta get this big boy in here.
00:58:31Yeah.
00:58:32The hunters nab an 11-foot monster to finish the day and hold up their end to the deal with
00:58:38the landowner.
00:58:38Now there's only one thing left to do.
00:58:42There you go, Cut.
00:58:43Last one, Cut.
00:58:43Cousin.
00:58:44Boy, I'm gonna kiss this tag right here.
00:58:46Buy this money right here.
00:58:48This tag here gonna make 15 extra one, boy.
00:58:50I was pumped up, you know what I'm saying?
00:58:52There was a lot of pressure on me and Leron.
00:58:53But, you know, the guys said we're the team that can do it, and we did it.
00:58:56You know what I'm saying?
00:58:56That's a big relief for me and Leron that we could've helped somebody out.
00:58:59And now, you know, it's time to go to the doc and show my man what's going on.
00:59:03What's it, folks, y'all?
00:59:03Everything good, man.
00:59:04What's it, Leron?
00:59:05How'd y'all do?
00:59:06Oh, we got it done.
00:59:08You know?
00:59:08There wasn't no cakewalk in the park, man.
00:59:10Came through like a champion.
00:59:12There's a promise.
00:59:12Oh, yeah, man.
00:59:14Dead him 15.
00:59:15Oh, man.
00:59:16Hey, man.
00:59:17It was a gamble.
00:59:18To fill five tags to get 15.
00:59:21Man, come on, man.
00:59:22That's a win-win situation.
00:59:23All right, B.
00:59:24All right.
00:59:24All right, man.
