Heard that the disney ponds are stocked with large mouth bass.
You tripping. A kid got pulled in by a Gator there at that resort.
I grew up in gator infested water ways in narleans. I grew up fishing solo and with my childhood friends. We got a few kids drowning every year but we got lucky that non of us were victims of a gator.
Thinking back, I'm actually scared now. Imagine walking along a trail of the bank and a gator stood in your way, what would you do? I've seen Gators n water moccasin, another deadly water snakes just chilling in my path but as kids, we don't know any better. We would go after them like they were supposed to be afraid of us.
If California has Gators n poisonous snakes, I kid you not, I'll sell all my fishing gears n quit. Only thing we should look out for here are rattlers but they are found in dry rocky areas. This is why I don't fish for native trout. To get there, you have rattlesnake, bears, mountain lions to worry about. Hell no to that. Risk is just too much for the wagering.
