Midway through gator season, hunters aim to settle old scores. Willie chases a nasty gator called Renegade who lives up to his name.

Ronnie calls upon a higher power to save his season.

With just three days left in the season, a cold front sends gators into hiding.

Daniel brings along Joey and Zak to his most secret honey hole, the hot springs, to capitalize on its warm waters. Ashley and Anna set their sights on accessing a hidden bayou full of giants.

On the final day of the season, the lingering cold front is giving gators “lock jaw” at the worst possible time.
