I went out on the water yesterday evening, and then went over to dogwood to pick up dinner with my wife. On the way back across the spillway, I saw what I thought was a long log....but it had me curious, so I turned around and went back across 4 times until I could pull over and get a good look. It was a gator that was at least 10 feet or so, and it was right by where we had gotten in the water about 45 minutes earlier. There were wake boarders skiing about 100 yards from it. This dude was a beast, and looked to be just sitting there hunting. He wasn't scared of the constant boat traffic or cars right there at the spillway. Kinda creepy.

Anywho, here's a few pics I shot...and I got a good video that shows his whole body. There's another foot or 2 of length behind what you can see in these pics. Hope they show up...
