HOLIDAY WEEKEND

[sally]

Well, for me, we don't have swamps, air boats or gators. It's a do it once, tick the box thing. Like bourbon street.

Lake Jessup has the largest concentration of gators in any lake in the US. Every time I drive over the bridge I see at least one floating in the water. I don't know if you could pay me a million bucks to swim in there for 5 minutes, even though they probably eat good and wouldn't even bother you. That little girl who wondered from her home survived for 3 days in the woods out there.

Do people actually swim in water populated with gators??

I guess I hear of more shark than gator injuries/deaths but I just assumed nobody would get in the water with a bunch of gators.

There are some lakes that gators have been spotted in and people still continue to swim, but not Lake Jesup. I've never even seen anyone on Jet Skis out there.
