GULP!!! 800lb Monster

Okay I'm going to think twice about kayaking and swimming at Coleto Lake Reservoir...
Sheesh.....
My sister in law, Barbara, sent me a photo this morning and then I found more photos on Victoria's Advocate site....
This is where we were swimming on July 4th!!
(see the tires and beach area in the background?)
But it looks like they dragged it in to this area to load it up on the truck...So where was the Monster?







The newspapers info wasn't much but here is the website...Click here
If I come up with more info I'll post it...I'd like to know exactly where it was found as Coleto is a HUGE reservoir....but I would like to know where it was hanging out. Hopefully not by the swimming area or where I fell off my Kayak either, lol...I also would like to know what it's length was too, just out of curiosity....I've really got the Willies now!!
Anyone want to go Kayaking with me?? LOL...
When they measured the gator on the beach it measured 11.5 ftIt was located between the boat dock and the swimming area. Lovely!!
