    Kayaking with alligators in the water 🥺 Eek. I can do it in the ocean with sharks, but alligators…? Looks like a cool park - beautiful oak tree! We saw some incredible oak trees in Louisiana.

    Really nice video. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't want to kayak with those huge gators but it was beautiful to watch you do it. That camp ground looked like a good place to go, and that oak tree was magnificent. Loved it!! Thumbs up my friend. (Emilie)

    Love the Harris chain of lakes. BUT there are gator infested. We went pontooning in Griffin and all we saw were gators. Was told it was mating season.

    That was a big one we ran into for sure and that kayak fisherman you saw in the video told us we just missed an 8 footer just before we paddled up

    I want to kayak fish Griffin lake and Ocklawaha river on the the northern tip... however I'm concerned about gators.. Any safety tips and how concerned should I be. I don't plan on getting out of the kayak but might have fish hanging in a bag over the side. thx.

    Do you know if they allowed fishing from the docks? Fishing from a kayak with so many gators probably wouldn’t go well😂
