TL;DR Summary

A group of alligator hunters in Mississippi set a state record by capturing a 14-foot, 802.5-pound alligator after a seven-hour struggle. The hunters, who have experience with large alligators, were initially drawn to the massive size of the creature. Despite broken lines and tackle, they persevered and finally managed to secure the alligator. The previous state record was set in 2017. The hunters are considering retiring from chasing big alligators after this remarkable catch.
