Not sure if these guys who are hating on me and my generator and multi light set up but they gave me the heads up that a 8footer is lurking the area.. Any locals care to confirm or is this a case of the locals knowing the SA guy is fishing their hole and trying to spoof me ?!?!?

Have not fished the area in a little over a year, but in my 20+ years of fishing Baffin, I have never heard of a gator siting. Some big alligator gar will be back in the creek.

I have spent a LoT of time in that area and know people that have fished it for years ....never a sighting but I know some people who call fowl just to mess with others and rumors spread like wildfire on baffin ....a 8 foot gar however I believe

Feed it chicken and bread and it will make a great watch dogillator for the cabin when your not there. Very Happy

Don't know about Baffin gator, but a 3-4 foot gator was seen in Padre Isles canals. He'd come up onto someone's ramp to sun himself.

It would not surprise me, since gators are in some of the tanks on the Kenedy and King Ranches!!!!!!!

Just left with 4 drum 20-28 - past the boat all the way to the tip

No sighting of Mr Gator

Howdy!

Never know. Had one in the small boat basin at Texas A&M Galveston when I went there. Also, years back my friend's grandfather killed one about that size from their stock pond in Centerfield, TX. Those things move around.

If im not mistaken, a 4-5 ftr was found on pins close to the blacktop. It was several years ago but i think it was the gollas that found him.

Cool

After Hurrican Allan came through my property I found a 6 foot gator in one of the two ground water tanks on Los Olmos creek about 5 miles NNW of Falfurrias. Los Olmos creek goes into Baffin just east of Site 55 so don't say never about where gators might show up.

I went with a friend through Morris Cummings cut almost to Estes flatts and he made a sharp turn and we got stuck on a sand bar - he is to old to push, so I did.... I saw what I though was an Alligator tail about 10 ft from me after a huge splash, the water was only knee deep,,,, we didin't wade Estes that day - I could have been mistaken, but I know there are fish in other places.

If there is ever going to be a gator in baffin it would be now...most ponds and creeks have dried on the king ranch and kenedy....

Dairy Lake on the Main King Ranch has dried up..i know for a fact that there were TONS of Gators in that Lake including some MONSTERS..where they all went....hell if i know....

just let me keep thinking there are no gators in baffin, only way i will keep fishing it
