Gator Hunting with Lucas Hoge

Louisiana’s alligator season is in full swing and it’s an annual tradition for many residents.  This past weekend, I filmed a hunt with T.P. Outdoors Adventures that has been in the works since the spring.

At the beginning of Tennessee’s turkey season, Bill Petrus and I took the opportunity to chase some spring turkeys with Brian Robinson of GSM Outdoors.  That’s where we met country music singer Lucas Hoge.  The early spring weather didn’t make for great turkey hunting so there was a lot of time spent talking around the fire.  Both Brian and Lucas were intrigued by the crazy antics seen on T.P. Outdoors Adventures and they both said Alligator hunting was a bucket list item for them.  You have to be careful what you ask for because this week, Bill and David “swamp donkey” Hanson made it happen.  

As with any of T.P. Outdoors Adventures there seems to always be some chaos involved.  This week we had engine problems with not one but two vehicles,  A vehicle broken into,  Multiple flat tires,  Brian got Snake bit, Bill got shot,  and Hanson almost got eaten alive by a gator. You won’t want to miss this episode of T.P. Outdoors Adventures. Until then, here are a few photos of the adventure and make sure you check out Lucas’ newest hit single.  “The Power of Garth” on iTunes
