The alligator expedition was a success for all three “Deadliest Catch” skippers who took part in the hunt. Sources say one gator will end up in a full body mount, and a skipper or two will become the proud owners of a pair of “gator” boots very soon (photo courtesy of the crabbroker)

To the Crabbroker Geniuses…… it seems like you hit the right note with the Boys and the public at large by bringing the two together…. To me, YOU ROCK !!! I plan to be at the Plano event with bells on and a huge smile on my face. I’m also taking a friend to remind me to ” keep breathing ” when I see Johnathan

We saw them in Chicago and had to go to Sarasota to get the shirts. All of our friends wanted one so we got them. We love your show!
Hope to see you at Bob Chinns in Chicagoland again in the future. Good Luck to all of you.

Great dinner and a great auction- I love my F/V Wizard jacket- Captain Keith was so nice and explained everything on it. I came home with a deeper respect for these guys- All of the captains worked so hard at making everyone feel welcome- Rob
