One question that constantly comes up in phone calls and conversations are Alligators on Lake Fork. Yes we have some.
Alligators haven’t eaten anyone…
I would be more worried about hydrilla, milfoil and abandoned trotlines while swimming vs. Alligators.
I have never seen an agressive alligator here, most of the time you are lucky to be able to get close enough for a photo. They are skidish and usually dive and hide when they see a boat.
Here are a few photos:
