Had 4 days planed got cut to two. So i settled on two almost 8 footers. Then i had to rely on a bud to clean them. Why because when i went to tag the second one the lock blade popped and stuck the biggest beast in the boat me. So now there's gator blood and my blood all over the boat. So not only were gators mouths taped so was my hand. Graped my t shirt had my bud cut a piece off. Wrapped the cut and taped it with the gator tape.

You know when you look down and see a blade about an inch in the side of your hand. The first thing through you mind is S#$@ stupid stupid stupid. Lucky it was in the flesh part on the side and just off the bone.

You are right the tetanus shots do hurt. I got one 3 years ago and could barely lift my arm for three days
