Package
This bucket list gator hunt will be hosted on 110,000 acres of swamp around Pecan Island. Given an abundance of both alligators and tags, each hunter will be allowed to hunt 15 lines, and will leave with meat and the head from their largest gator. The package includes a 2-night stay at the gator camp, a guided hunt, cajun cuisine and beverages, photos, and gator meat. The hunt costs $3,500 per guest. Hunters are expected to tip a minimum of 10%.

Guests should arrive the night before the hunt around 4:00pm and will enjoy drinks and appetizers, followed by authentic cajun cuisine. The following morning, each boat will ferry 2 to 3 hunters to various locations throughout the swamp. Firearms are not required as they will be provided by the guides. After the hunt, you'll be treated to Cajun food back at the camp.
Each hunter will be allowed to take home one alligator head and 25 lbs of cleaned and vacuum sealed meat. Additional meat, skinning, tanning, or taxidermy will be a separate cost if desired.
