Kinda silly question but......
Has anyone seen gators in the Corpus area or how close are they?
Also, has anybody seen the one that's supposed to be at PINS?

I've heard that they're pretty commonly seen around oso creek.

Haven't heard of, or seen, any around hear. Have heard reports of them around Aransas Pass but have never fished that area myself.

There was a smallish one [ 4-5 feet] seen in the canals of Padre Island. It had gotten up on someone's kayak ramp and was sunning itself last year.

Seen a couple in Nueces Bay... There was about a 10' at Oso Beach golf course.

Have seen several in the Nueces, and the back parts of Lake Mathis. Never seen one near the bay or beach, though I have seen a couple gar in the bay.

When I was playing golf at the Sinton golf course there were several in the ponds.

Wow, thanks!
A lot more than I was expecting. Oso creek. Oso golf course and the canals REALLY surprise me.

I think Golla got a picture of one on PINS. I know of three that have been found in Flour Bluff. I got a small one at Lakeview Pond a few years back. Not common, but they're around.

Spotted this one in the Padre canals by the poop dump station... he was glowing in the dark.

Just kidding. Neat to hear of the reports around Corpus!

Pretty common. I hit one with the boat a few years back not far from NAS. He was big enough to kick the motor up. Shocked

They were always dragging them out of the Oso and Nueces river when I was a kid in the 70's.

Holy cow! that's quite a bit of sightings near the areas I fish. I have seen plenty out at Aransas Pass and the river. Makes me not want to fish alone.
