Hi, no we haven't - yet.  The one we caught was in the brush surrounding the parking lot at the bottom, near the dam. I catch some pretty nice blue bellies there too, but the large ones are very cautious / hard to get. Here is a video of some of the other catches in the area. Thanks fo rthe tip. :)

@davidbray101 Nice! I bet your son tripped out at seeing that! I know mine would have. BTW: I don't remember coming accross an orange alligator. The ones I have mostly come across are a green / grey color.
